They'd Probably Charge At Least Five Bucks For This One
We're not inherent UFC fans, but we understand the appeal, and jeez, the damned thing's on the cover of SI these days. If you've ever watch a Pay-Per-View, you'll probably enjoy this parody; we think this fight might be rather fun to watch, actually....

LeBron Does All Kinds Of Things Humans Aren't Supposed To Be Able To Do
This photo is of the last point of the final 25 LeBron James scored last night to give the Cavaliers a 3-2 series lead in the Eastern Conference Finals.

LeBron Would Like To Make His Case Now
Heavens to Betsy: We think it's possible that LeBron James has proven himself in the fourth quarter. Or in overtime. Or in double overtime. Or, perhaps soon, in the NBA Finals. He scored the last 25 points for the Cavs. That, friends, is ridiculous. Consider our jaws officially agape. More tomorrow....

How A-Rod Changed Everything, And Nothing
Of all the pleasures of this whole A-Rod business — and there are many — the best has been watching media outlets like ESPN and the New York Daily News dance their way around the story while still embracing it and licking its ear.

The legend of Hogzilla II ... was it all a hoax? Did 11-year-old Jamison Stone really down a 1,000-pound feral pig in the Alabama woods, or was he home watching The Andy Griffith Show that day?
