And Nick Saban is....Heading to Tuscaloosa
Miami Dolphins head coach Nick Saban has decided to walk away from the pro game and head to the University of Alabama . Saban, who was offered somewhere in the ballpark of a 25 year, $98 kajillion deal from the Crimson Tide, will no longer be part of the Miami Dolphins rejuvenation program....

Domanick Nee Davis Refurbishes His Image
Make a mental note that the nicotine patch, Jenny Craig, or coffee enemas, are probably not enough to ensure a shiny new you this new year. Take a cue from Domanick Davis of the Houston Texans, who has decided to purge himself of himself by entering the 2007 season with changes to his haircut (brai...

Alabama Just Won't Give Up On The Nick Saban Thing
Miami Dolphins head coach Nick Saban could be the recipient of a $40 million offer, including $7 million in a signing bonus, from Alabama.

But He Means That In The Nicest Possible Way
We thought that we were pretty much up to speed on the brawl at Madison Square Garden and its aftermath, but now we're still a little confused. Is Isiah Thomas a "jerk," a "jackass" or an "asshole?" Our lines are still open, call in and cast your vote now! Nuggets coach George Karl left the question...

At The Garden With Deron, Stephon And The Cabal
So it figures: We go see our first (and likely only) Knicks game of the year, and not only is it their most "exciting" victory of the year, but it's a one that, the day after, even Knicks fans don't really care about. The Knicks had a rare stud game from Stephon Marbury — and by "rare," we mean "we ...

Witnessing The Isiah Carnage In Person
We're a little afraid to admit this publicly, if just we're afraid Isiah Thomas will send Mardy Collins to knock us to the floor or something, but in the wake of the big brawl at Madison Square Garden on Saturday, we are heading to our first (and hopefully) last Knicks game of the year tonight. The ...

Who's Sorry Now? NBA Edition
No sooner had the new TV been taken out of its box over at the new Carmelo Anthony Youth Development Center in Baltimore than the kids got an eyeful of their hero throwing haymakers at various members of the New York Knicks during their wild brawl on Saturday. One has to wonder what Carmelo would ha...

Carmelo Anthony Sticks and Moves... Really, Really Far Away
Well, it was about time. Over 20 games into the NBA season, there hadn't been a single bench-clearing melee. People were about to start thinking that the NBA had gone soft. Think again, fools....

Celebrating Isiah
There are all kinds of reasons to throw a party, but none of them are better or more significant than the third anniversary of the hiring of Isiah Thomas. Knicks owner James Dolan is throwing this bash, and the best thing about it? You're invited. No, really. Here's your invitation....

Wear The Jersey Of Your Favorite Player's Venereal Disease!
You might remember the famous OutSports expose on the words that the NFL won't allow you to print on the back of their jerseys. Apparently, this guy, from the Atlanta game last weekend, was somehow able to iron on this tribute to Ron Mexico himself....

Get Fired Up, Knicks Fans
In honor of the Knicks' surprising road victory over the Cavaliers last night — which puts them one game out of first place, at 6-10! — we are proud to point out this Web advertisement for the Knicks (not one of the ones that, strangely, ran on this site) encouraging Madison Square Garden to "Experi...

Who's Sorry Now? Hand Jive Edition
Who's Sorry Now? is going away for a little while. All this remorse has been overwhelming, and we're sad to report that we began drinking again. So we'll be resting at a secure rehabilitation facility in a country setting in Northern California, and we may even get Robin Williams' old room. But firs...

He Can't Even Play For Isiah
It's been a week or two since we checked in with the running joke that is the New York Knicks. As it turns out, it doesn't look like the dream pairing of Stephon Marbury and his "father figure" Isiah Thomas is going to function as seamlessly as we all thought it would. Things reached a low-point l...
