Vote Neshek, Everybody!
Twins reliever Pat Neshek is having a rather outstanding year, with an ERA at 1.37 and pitching in that submarine way we always find charming. He's actually one of the five finalists for the last American League All-Star spot, voted on by fans on MLB.com. And he's unleashing his secret weapon to bri...

Don't Let LaRussa Drink And Select
This is Brian Fuentes, who, until two days ago, was the closer for the Colorado Rockies. He had kind of a rough weekend; he blew saves on both Friday and Saturday, and then gave up two runs in the eighth inning Sunday after manager Clint Hurdle said he was taking the closer's job away from him. It's...

Arenas And Durant, Like Burns And Allen
You just know he insisted on that, and that he practiced in a mirror for months to get it exactly right....

Ron Jaworski? Please. This is your new MNF foil for Kornheiser....

About Last Night
What you missed while mowing the front lawn with scissors ... • College baseball: No ants for you! Oregon State 7, UC Irvine 1. • MLB: Sammy Sosa hits No. 600, pending results of your analysis. • MLS: Just a glorified Crew ... Columbus over Kansas City 2-1, like we had to tell you....

Baseball Fans Search For Loopholes On Billy Donovan Night
We are not here to mock you, Billy Donovan. Yes, you backed out of your $27.5 million deal to coach the Orlando Magic; but we feel your pain. Steve Spurrier feels your pain. Homer and Ned feel your pain. And the Fort Myers Miracle minor league baseball team, they ... well, OK, they're here to mock y...

That Guy Has Little Length Or Upside
We hope you've been properly scoping out the scouting combines and you've jotted down all your 40 times, because today is The Championship Gaming Series is holding its draft today....

ESPN Would Like To Remind You Of Its Omnipotence
Let's say, hypothetically speaking, that instead of watching Game One of the NBA Finals last night, you decided your evening would be better spent watching the MLS game between the Colorado Rapids and the Houston Dynamo on ESPN2. That wouldn't be our choice, but whatever: You just love the MLS and e...

Sebastien Gacond Is Gay (As Long As You Make It Clear It's The "Happy" Kind Of Gay)
This is Sebastien Gacond. He is a professional triathlete, which is impressive; it must be difficult to be an athlete with three major appendages. He is also not gay. Not gay at all. Nothing gay about Sebastien Gacond. He is all man. It is extremely important that you understand this....

With Special "Look For Real Killers" Action!
This is going to sound morbid, but we've always wanted the opportunity to play as O.J. Simpson in a football video game. His combination of speed, power and downfield slashing action, we've always thought, would make us unstoppable. And, of course, deadly....

The Return Of Tecmo Bowl
We don't know how we missed this piece of news yesterday, but The Fanhouse has the scoop: They're bringing back Tecmo Bowl!...

Gripping Footage From XTREME Baseball
You might remember our XTRME BASEBALL! post for a few days ago, but now it looks like there's some new footage out there of the league's opening night game....

Wait ... Why Is There A Guy Next To The Mound ... And ... Oh, Jeez, We Give Up
Here's today's pointless, needlessly confusing pseudo sport: The National Xtreme Baseball League, which has two batters, a ton of extra fielders and the potential for 29 people on the field at once. It makes no sense at all, and we feel for the players "interviewed" in the promotional video, most of...

Time Once Again To Play The Mark Trail Drinking Game
Somewhere out west — we think it may be Idaho — is a land where the native fish are frisky and plentiful; and occasionally leap from the stream to blurt out answers to mysteries....

Naked Swimmers Dancing
When you're a swimmer at the University of South Carolina, we suspect life can become boring from time to time. Therefore, one must streak!...

There Are Ways To Support Your Brother That Don't Involve Murder
I really wish Demetrius M. Pepper was either less devoted to his brother, or better at stealing cars. Pepper shot and killed a 60-year-old woman, and shot a store clerk, in the process of stealing their cars so he could get to South Carolina's spring game and watch his brother Nathan, a junior Gamec...

Somebody Was Too Blasted To Pitch In A Meaningless Game
So you remember that whole All-Star game travesty from five years ago — yes, it has been five years now, which is kind of amazing — when they had to call the All-Star Game a tie because everyone was out of pitchers? (That game is the reason the American League has freaking home-field advantage every...

We're Still Cheesed About Nirvana On That Baseball Video Game
We know we touched on this Friday, but it stuck in our craw over the weekend. Turns out that Courtney Love, an entirely stable person who should absolutely be trusted with one of the more valuable music catalogs of the last 50 years, has sold the rights to Nirvana's "Breed" to be played on the Major...

Pacman Jones Doesn't Like To Make It Rain
Time for your Pacman Jones update ... and it's a fun one. Everybody's favorite bouncer biter is in even more trouble today, as the search warrant for him has been made public. All kinds of doozies in here:...
