Beer Of The Week: Hoptimus Prime

Joes might've delivered creepily timed PSAs - oh, don't mind Doc hanging around outside your bathroom window, kiddos - but in setting up a reflexively force-oriented response to terroristic threats probably helped set the...

643 Rushing Yards And 10 Touchdowns Make For A Pretty Solid Birthday
What was your eighteenth birthday like? Mine was my first day of college: After four hours by car (we got lost), uncomfortable goodbyes, and eons of totally disorienting orientation activities, I went to a party and lost in beer pong, without hitting a cup, to two girls. I don't specifically recall ...

Tipster Natalie sends along this incredible/weird image from the Oregon-Arkansas State game a couple of weekends ago in Eugene.

Video Of Derrick Rose's Injury Makes Derrick Rose Cry
Rose was at some stupid Adidas unveiling today, but forget that; listen to this. "Chicago Bulls star Derrick Rose started to cry Thursday when a video of him tearing his left ACL and rehabbing was played..." Now that's a lede!...

The Specialists: What's In It For Oregon's Quarterbacks?

The Astros Are Now Hurting Other People With Their Ineptitude

Superlative Jets Rookie Stephen Hill Dominated Yesterday's Game While Periodically Puking On The Sidelines
Rookie Jets wideout Stephen Hill wowed anyone within a one-hundred-mile radius of East Rutherford yesterday, catching five passes for 89 yards and two touchdowns.

Saints Players' Bountygate Suspensions Overturned On Appeal
The NFLPA, arguing on behalf of four members of the Saints who were suspended for their roles in New Orleans' bounty scandal, was actually fighting the war on two fronts.

<i>Game Of Thrones</i> House Sigils, As Re-Imagined By A Nike Designer
Darrin Crescenzi is a Portland-based graphic designer, and something of a go-to guy for Nike.
