Photoshop Contest: Jim Tressel Signing Things!
We had some photos of Jim Tressel signing things at some kind of luncheon last week. Ohio State's alumni organization left Tressel in front of a matte backdrop. Easy pickings for Photoshops, plenty of source material....

Who Wants To See A Guy Kickflip His Bike?
This impressive trick from Estonia's Ingvar Neumann seems to officially be called the lateral bike flip, although we've seen it referred to as the "Neu Flip," or, in Neumann's words, the "HD." ("For Heavy Drug, High Definition and Happy Day.") Whatever, it's a kick flip on a freaking bicycle, and ...

You May Have Missed Emeka Okafor's Absurd Buzzer-Beater Last Night
While his alma mater advanced to the Elite 8 last night, Hornets center Emeka Okafor went for some Laettner-esque heroics (too soon?) at the buzzer in Salt Lake City. This nifty shot sent the game into overtime, and even playing without David West in the extra period, New Orleans won 121-117....

Calling All New York City Deadspin Readers: Free Concert Tix For Tonight (UPDATE: Contest over)
The Deadspin office has two tickets to the Cold War Kids concert tonight. I want to get rid of them. So if any of you undesirables don't have plans to watch the NCAAs, are in the city, and can come down to the office in Soho and pick these things up in the next two hours they're yours. Requirement...

Watch Old Zinedine Zidane Abuse A Young Goalie
The Magician will be doing this until he's 80. Class. Pure class. I like how after Zidane finishes toying with this poor lad at some recent Adidas event, he goes over to see if the kid will ever recover....

UFC Fighter Joe Benavidez Is the Champion Of Pedophile Jokes
A mildly amusing Twitter fracas is underway at #sowonderful, a hashtag that has sprung up around the burgeoning legend of Phil "Mr. Wonderful" Davis, who will one day make a good opponent for new light heavyweight champ Jon Jones. It's in the Yo Momma/Chuck Norris/Dos Equis vein of humor. As of yest...

The Florida Basketball Team Has No Comment On Premarital Sex
A reporter for the Orlando Sentinel attended the Florida Gators' press conference yesterday to ask Billy Donovan and Chandler Parsons about premarital sex, and then he wrote nearly 800 words about how the BYU honor code "lifted college athletics up." Donovan passed on the question — "How hard woul...

NBA Scouts Agree: Jimmer Fredette Is Very, Very White
The best part about yesterday's foreseeable New York Times story on Jimmer Fredette wasn't the obvious notion that Fredette might make for a less-than-dominant NBA player. Far better and more obvious was the list of less-than-dominant NBA players that several front-office types used to assess Fredet...

Rodney Stuckey Is The Latest To Embarrass Chris Bosh
Since Miami beat Detroit last night, 100-94, and since the Heat (49-22) are already in the playoffs while the Pistons (25-46) decidedly are not, all we can really say about this game is that Chris Bosh still found a way to make it embarrassing for the guys in red. Here's Rodney Stuckey, the doll o...

One Girl Lost A Weave While Another Parted With A Fake Arm During An H&M Brawl In Philly
While the fight itself is nowhere near the caliber of the I(ride the ride)Hop, Oakland B.K. or Chuck E. Cheese's brawls, there's something to be said for a headless mannequin wearing a "Knot Violence" T-shirt....

Many Special People Excitedly Posed For Pictures With Jim Tressel Last Week
Sure, Jim Tressel won't be coaching Ohio State University's first couple of football games in the fall, what with breaking the rules and all. That lil mess didn't stop droves of fans from turning out for an Ohio State Alumni luncheon for the chance to stand in front of the same camera as the coach ...

Watch Manny Ramirez Almost Kill Roy Oswalt
Roy Oswalt was struck "in the upper body" with a line drive hit off of Manny Ramirez's bat today in Port Charlotte, Fla.
