Drawn By The Scent Of Death And Decay, Coyotes Prowl Wrigley Field
Night. The pack slips silently out of the den, drawn by an unnameable urge deep in the midbrain. The streets are deserted, the twolegs having retreated to the safety of their dwellings. The world belongs to them now. The waxing moon rises above the low red brick houses of Wrigleyville. Light enough ...

Harrison Barnes Demolishes Nikola Pekovic With The Dunk Of The Year
Not long ago, Harrison Barnes was touted as the next big thing, a guy who was destined for NBA stardom. A disappointing college career changed all that, however, and Barnes—just a rookie—is now associated with unfulfilled potential. So it's easy to forget that he can do things like this....

Seahawks-Dolphins Delayed When Sun Life Stadium Sprinklers Go Off Mid-Game
Damn you, BW3. In a premature attempt to extend what's so far been a boring Seattle-Miami NFL game, a groundskeeping blunder led to a delay in the action when midway through the third quarter, Sun Life Stadium's sprinkler system went off, leading players and officials to scatter in an attempt to e...

Tom Jackson Bizarrely Attacks Jay Cutler For Not Saying Hello To People
Sitting alongside Chris Berman as he has for so long, Tom Jackson has escaped criticism because the easy target gets hit the most. But Tom Jackson is just as awful and this is but one example. Jay Cutler was concussed two weeks ago and was just named the starter for the Bears today. Rather than a ...

Beer Of The Week: Big Rock Brewery's Honey Brown Lager
This weekend the Canadian Football League season culminates with a game called the Grey Cup, in its 100th incarnation. A team called the Stampeders, out of Calgary, is visiting Toronto to play the Argonauts. In rough American equivalence this is Dallas against New York, a big game with a dose of civ...

Frank Gore Blew Up Lance Briggs: Bears-49ers, In One GIF
San Francisco 32, Chicago 7: In his first career start, Colin Kaepernick out-dueled Jason Campbell and it was not even close. Kaepernick had 243 yards and two touchdowns to Campbell's 107 yards, one touchdown and two interceptions. The usually sticky-fingered Bears defense forced zero turnovers and...

NFL Slaps Ed Reed With One-Game Suspension
In the third quarter last night, Ravens safety Ed Reed drew an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty for this helmet-to-helmet hit on defenseless Steelers receiver Emmanuel Sanders, who didn't even bother to fake an injury. This being Reed's third such violation in three seasons (and second this year), ...

Miguel Angel Jimenez Becomes Oldest Player To Win On European Tour, Remains Coolest Dude In Golf
There are essentially two reasons for this post on the 48-year-old Spaniard. One is the video above. It remains as magnificently hypnotic as ever and should be viewed at least twice a year, as needed. The other is the quote below, following his win at the Hong Kong Open....

Losses By Oregon, Kansas State Ensure All-SEC Title Game
Welp, it happened. Kansas State, once thought unbeatable†, loosed the SI-cover-jinx-aided mother of all bedshits Saturday. Call it the revenge of the Southwest* Conference: Texas A&M downs the No. 1 Crimson Tide last week, Baylor (editor's note: LOL) conks the Wildcats this week. This is agonizingly...

Kansas State Gets Blown Out By Baylor And Oregon Falls To Stanford At Home As The Top Two BCS Teams Get Their First Losses On The Same Night
A week from college football's end-of-season reckoning and Kansas State and Oregon, ranked first and second respectively in the BCS standings going into today's games, have taken their first losses of the season. The defeats likely pave the way for a new BCS leader in (gulp) Notre Dame, a 38-0 win...

Lee Corso Almost Killed A Duck On College Gameday
At this point, we have no grounds for saying whether or not the duck is dead. The duck could be alive, it could be in the final, painful throes of death, it could be totally OK—maybe ducks are more resilient than they look. Maybe. We're not veterinarians. All we know is that the duck was not happy...

Your College Football Open Thread, For Talking About Basically Anything But College Football
Is this the worst week of college football in the entire season? Emphatically yes, it is the worst. During football's penultimate week, many ranked teams are playing FCS opponents from around the neighborhood—South Carolina plays Wofford, Texas A&M plays Sam Houston State, Georgia won't even go beyo...

The Ditka Family Had A Pretty Rough Friday
Mark Ditka, son of Mike, is currently awaiting trial in Lake County, Illinois for his fourth DUI arrest, and for possession of a controlled substance (hydrocodone) turned up during the ensuing search of his car....

A Frustrated Neil Everett Muttered "Son Of A Bitch, Goddammitdangit" Live On <em>SportsCenter</em>
An apparently rough episode of SportsCenter got the best of anchor Neil Everett tonight, as going to break a hot microphone caught the personality muttering some mildly inappropriate language at the end of tonight's 1 a.m. show....

<em>Life Of Pi</em>'s Ang Lee: The World's Least-Cool Great Director
It's hard to classify Ang Lee, whose latest movie, Life of Pi, comes out on Wednesday. He's a respected, acclaimed director—he won an Oscar for Brokeback Mountain—but he's not in any one niche. He's not a purely commercial filmmaker—his one stab at that was Hulk—but he's also not a challenging, prov...
