Some people think this is a fake butt. Others thought it was a photoshop, but the photo is from the Getty wire, which is not where you usually find conspiracy-driving photoshops. It doesn't look especially physiologically possible, one way or another. ...

Rory McIlroy: Tiger And Phil Are "Into The Back Nine Of Their Careers"
The Tour Championship begins today, and it's the first time since 1992 that neither Tiger Woods nor Phil Mickelson qualified. We are, by any reasonable observer, toward the tail-end of a generational torch-passing at the top. The world's No. 1 certainly qualifies as a reasonable observer....

It's a slick enough pass by Van Exel, nothing extraordinary, but Brent Barry's reaction is pretty funny: He gets faked left by the behind-the-back move, then instantaneously recognizes he's been deked and transitions into doot-de-doot-de-doo, I was just strolling over here for my own purposes mode....
Tampa Bay's Pitching Staff Has A Good Time Messing With Each Other
