Michael Jordan's Golf Bag Would Like To Inform You That Michael Jordan Has Six Rings
Michael Jordan's golf bag would also like to inform you that he has a Nike brand that you may have seen somewhere. Have you seen it? It's OK if you haven't seen it, because the logo is right there, on his golf bag—right above the six NBA championship rings he won with the Chicago Bulls. (Maybe you d...
Not The Bees!
A college golf tournament hosted by UT-Arlington was canceled after 70,000 angry bees descended on the course. It was exactly like this....
Rick Pitino Is Introspective About The Big East Exodus, Invokes "Good Old Abe Pagoda"
Because Pitino is the Louisville coach, he's concerned with what Syracuse and Pitt leaving the conference will mean for those left behind. Because Pitino is Italian, he doesn't know how to describe his feelings with anything but a Godfather reference. (Warning: crappy music plays automatically at Pi...
Goldy Gopher Dancing To A Forgettable 80s Song Just Might Save Minnesota Football
Tipster Ryan sent us the above video, to which he added: "80's music and dancing gopher mascots. Embarrassing for Minnesota athletics." I'm not so sure. The University of Minnesota's football team has had little to savor for some time. Last week, head coach Jerry Kill suffered a seizure on the sidel...
Cal Coaches Use Foolproof Technique To Connect With Their Team: White Person R&B
Oh god. I can't. This is almost too painful. Cal women's basketball held a team retreat last week, apparently in my grandfather's finished basement. Assistant coach Daron Park, with the rest of the coaching staff on backup, entertained the players with an altered Montell Jordan routine that really...

Today In Hilarious Baseball Stat Acronym Humor
Ladies and germs, I give you Richard Griffin: "As for my view on the new generation of baseball statistics, I will just quote from the legendary R&B and soul icon Edwin Starr and his hit song for the Temptations: 'War, huh, good God. What is it good for? Absolutely nothing. Listen to me.'" [Toronto ...
Maybe Justin Bieber Isn't The Most Loyal Maple Leafs Fan After All
Yesterday Bieber went on the radio and gushed about his Leafs fandom, being from Ontario and all. No bandwagoner he. Today he's rocking the Blackhawks cap....
The 2011 MLB Rookie Hazing Costume Collection
Forcing rookies to dress in costume is an MLB tradition that's as childish as it is time-honored. A gloriously dumb reminder that most baseball players are manchildren, forever stuck in high school. We are too; it's a major reason baseball players are perhaps easier to connect with than athletes in ...
Jonathan Toews Went To A Hockey Camp And Checked A Child To The Ice (Video)
What happens here is clearly an accidental collision involving Jonathan Toews, the Chicago Blackhawks' captain. But it's hard to tell what's worse: The faint, cringe-inducing wail of the child Toews inadvertently knocks over, or the complete indifference to the youngster shown by Lance Brown of CT...
NC State's Basketball Coach Will Jump Out Of A Plane And Land At The 50-Yard Line For, Um, "Military Appreciation Week"
Does someone get this? Because we're not sure we get this. Southeastern college basketball was only recently liberated from the tyranny of Bruce Pearl, its chief coach-mascot, and now it's got another one on its hands....
Looks Like Somebody Pissed Themselves At Today's Chargers Game
The good thing about what happened to this poor chap standing next to a lass wearing a short light blue/white checkered skirt sitting in the front row when the San Diego Chargers hosted the Minnesota Vikings today is that he didn't shit himself. That's an assumption. He probably has by now. (H/T Cu...

Gordon Hayward Is Just Playing StarCraft All Summer
Without organized workouts, NBA players have to be creative to stay in shape this offseason. Some guys are touring China. Others are playing rec league ball. Still others are just going to their local gym every day, shooting jumpers and practicing their crossovers until the sun goes down. Then there...
Roger Goodell Enforces The Laws That Roger Goodell Came Up With Just Now
Jim Tressel followed in the footsteps of his protégé Terrelle Pryor by jumping to the NFL, and he's going to suffer silently on the sidelines along with him. Yesterday the Colts announced Tressel will sit out the first six weeks, a penalty that was self-imposed because the Commissioner's office was ...
Jim Tressel Embarrasses Roger Goodell By Self-Imposing Goodell's Stupid Idea Of Justice
Has there ever been a string of punishments/non-punishments more baffling than Roger Goodell's recent run? Lacking a clear directive but wielding the personal-conduct policy like Zeus's discriminate lightning bolts, no one plays unless the Commish decides he's "ready," and the Commish doesn't have t...
Ron Artest Has Never Looked More Graceful
