The Hater's Guide To Ray Lewis
It’s not exactly daring to hate Ray Lewis. Facebook data show that most people are rooting for the 49ers to win the Super Bowl, and I’m sure “FUCK RAY LEWIS” has a lot to do with that.

As Punishment For Yelling "Fucking Jews!" At A Guy, Delmon Young Will Have To Complete Courses At The Museum Of Tolerance
Back in April, Tigers outfielder Delmon Young was charged with third-degree assault after a minor fracas on a road trip in New York.

The 2012 Hater's Lover's Guide To The Top 25
Every year, we preview the upcoming college football season with a Hater’s Guide to the Top 25, and every year I make the same jokes about Ohio State fans being dumb and Alabama fans being racist (it’s true!), and it’s always a great deal of fun. But this year, between the Hater’s Guides and the Why...
If You Feel Compelled To Stroll The Beach In A Banana-Hammock, Do So
No one will care if your spare tire is gleaming in the late-summer sunshine. No one will blink an eye if your body hair creates a halo around your creatively toned muscles.

Cristiano Ronaldo Gives Fans The Finger, Denies Giving Fans The Finger (Video)
The Real Madrid star at least was honest last week, when he expressed why he feels opposing fans heckle him, thus reinforcing those fans' notion of him as an arrogant prick.
