Punching Cops In The Chest? BAD IDEA
Can you believe it has only been a month since a Cincinnati Bengal was arrested? Seriously, it's almost as like they were winning and no one had noticed!...

Perhaps She Has Chosen The Wrong Collegiate Extracurricular Activity
The M Zone takes a moment away from screaming at the heavens and cursing Allah to bring us this video, from the USC-UCLA game Saturday — way to step up, Trojans, by the way — and the famous Unable To Figure Out When Is, In Fact, The Correct Time To Cheer cheerleader. She has a tendency to strike dur...

BCS Mess Claims More Victims: Everyone
Who's unpopular in the Michigan area right now? Former Washington State coach Jim Walden, the one member of the Harris BCS poll who voted Florida No. 1 in the country and one of the reasons the Gators are playing Ohio State in the BCS "title" game rather than Michigan. Walden is hardly alone in his ...

Sunday Night Football: Seahawks @ Broncos
Tonight, Jay Cutler becomes the next Broncos quarterback that no one in Denver will like because his name isn't "John Elway." Well, that might not be true. They could end up liking him. Denver had Super Bowl hopes as recent as a few weeks ago, so all Cutler has to do is rescue the floundering team, ...

NFL Week Thirteen, Update #4
• The Texans beat the Raiders. I feel like taking a baseball bat to my television, and I didn't even care who won this game. I don't even think anyone in Oakland or Houston cared about who won this game. Ron Dayne, the man whose career would not die, carried the ball 18 times for 95 yards. David C...

Your turn, Jay Cutler. 8:15, NBC. • Women's College Basketball: Tennessee @ North Carolina. Well, that one girl can do this. 8:00, ESPN....

Sportsmanship Is No Better At The D-III Level, It Seems
Saturday was a productive day for the Division III Lincoln Lions. In a game played in Salem, West Fuckin' Virginia, they fought through the tough Ohio State Marion defense to earn a 201-78 victory in the 25th Annual Joe Manchin Classic (Joe Manchin is the governor of West Fuckin' Virginia)....

NFL Week Thirteen, Update #3
• Last week, Mathias Kiwanuka had Vince Young wrapped up for a sack, and let him go... this week, Kiwanuka intercepted a pass, and them fumbled it right back to the Cowboys. It's as if he wants Tom Coughlin to kill him in his sleep. Eli Manning is sort of outplaying Tony Romo right now. Romo's got 2...

LA Times Says Florida vs. Ohio State
The Los Angeles Times is quoting a BCS source as saying that it'll be Florida and Ohio State in the BCS Championship game. They don't offer a lot of details about either how it happened, or their source, but they seem pretty confident about it....

Barry Zito Talks To Seals
I'd have bet that something called "At Home, with Lisa Guerrero" would've been softcore porn, but it's not. The former Monday Night Football sideline reporter has a TV show somewhere in which she visits people in their homes and does friendly little features on them. Here, she visits Barry Zito....

NFL Week Thirteen, Update #2
• What a week for Pac-Man Jones... he gets his seized car back at a bargain price, and now, his Titans have pulled the big-time upset of Indianapolis Colts. And they did it despite wearing powder blue uniforms, which is normal and fine... except when paired with powder blue pants, when it starts to ...

Thank God For Crack
I bet you saw that headline and thought this post was about Michael Irvin, didn't you? But it's not. It's a story about an alligator and a crackead, and just in case things don't go the Gators' way later on today, I'd like to present you this story, where the gator did win. At least for a little whi...

NFL Week Thirteen, Update #1
• This one... I do not understand. The Lions have walked onto the shiny new FieldTurf surface and are leading the Patriots 10-3. It's been the Mike Furrey show, as he has six catches for 77 yards and a touchdown. The Bill Belichick genius has been effective to this point in his career, but the one t...

Baron Davis Doesn't Give A Damn About Your Eyesight
That's Golden State Warriors swingman Monta Ellis, who's having a breakout year. He's come out of nowhere to average better than 18 points and 4 assists per game for the Warriors. It's the kind of performance that gets a guy picked up in a lot of fantasy leagues, and then gets a guy enough attention...
