Jeremy Lin Dominates Other NBA Players In Planking
The NY Post ran a cropped version of the above photo in a story this morning about how Jeremy Lin, who's been sleeping on his brother's couch on the Lower East Side, is now searching for a home of his own, as it seems Lin will be sticking around New York a little longer. (He will also be making the ...

Learning The Secret Of Rugby, Nine Concussions Later
I once drank so much weight-gain powder that I couldn't go 40 minutes without peeing. I was an intern in San Francisco, trying to play rugby with the big boys, and working part time clearing tables. Whoever designed Mass XXX surely did not intend for it to provide 50 percent of my daily calories, us...

The Orioles Can't Even Sign Potential Prospects Without Getting Their Scouts Banned In Other Countries
The Baltimore Orioles are dragging a streak of 14 consecutive losing seasons into 2012.

Watch Maurice Evans Run Away From The Chance To Be On The Jeremy Lin Poster
Yes, Knicks insta-sensation Jeremy Lin shook John Wall with a nasty crossover last night, on his way to a highlight dunk against the Wizards. But the true measure of Linsanity comes from Washington's Maurice Evans, who sees No. 17 coming, takes a tentative slide step toward stopping him, then chan...

Three Men Have Now Accused Wisconsin's Former Associate AD Of Sexual Misconduct
John Chadima had resigned in early January, and a subsequent report said it was because he allegedly grabbed the crotch of a subordinate during the football team's Rose Bowl trip. The subordinate, who turned out to be a student, did not wish to press charges, and neither did another accuser who cam...

Rodney Harrison Is An Idiot. Let Rob Gronkowski Dance!
You may have seen this video of Pats tight end Rob Gronkowski and tackle Matt Light, fresh off of losing the Super Bowl, doing what I would be probably be doing if I just lost the biggest game of my life: getting shitfaced, dancing shirtless, and trying to get laid. But of course, Rodney Harrison do...

"This Is Live, Isn't It?" Asks The Rock Just After Dropping A "Bullshit" On <em>SportsCenter</em>
Once again, John Buccigross is in the middle of daytime SportsCenter antics, this time with Dwayne Johnson, who may or may not still be using "The Rock" professionally.

I Hung Out With Dukebags And Discovered The Greatest Value In The History Of Drunken Eating
I went down to the Research Triangle area of North Carolina last week. This is the area comprising Durham, Chapel Hill, and Raleigh. It's a very pretty area, surrounded by tall trees that are so perfectly spaced out it's almost as if the entire forest were landscaped. And the forest floor itself is ...

Professional Athlete Used Recreational Drug
Via the Boston Globe: "Dennis 'Oil Can' Boyd's new tell-all book, 'They Call Me Oil Can: My Life in Baseball,' which hits bookstores in June, should be a blockbuster if the stories are similar to what the former Red Sox pitcher told WBZ's Jon Miller yesterday at JetBlue Park. Boyd, who spent eight o...

LeBron's Not Going To Apologize For Kendrick Perkins's Hurt Feelings
When LeBron tweeted about Blake Griffin's dunk destruction of Kendrick Perkins, it gave Perk a sad. "You don't see Kobe tweeting," he said. "You don't see Michael Jordan tweeting." You also don't see Kobe or MJ running to the media to complain that someone was mean to them on the internet....

Jeremy Lin Also Dominates Intramural Flag Football Games
There's just no stopping this Lin fellow. Here he is taking over what appears to be the 2009 Harvard intramural flag football championship between Winthrop House and Leverett House (respect). A two-way threat, Lin can be seen flying all over the field. Just chuck the ball in his direction and let ...

Awful Uncalled Penalty Sets Up Game-Winning Goal Six Seconds Later
Perhaps referees can't be bothered to care when two last-place teams go at it. That's the only possible explanation for the lack of a call on Anaheim's Corey Perry for tripping up Carolina's Jussi Jokinen. It wasn't away from the puck, or in a cloud of bodies, but right out there in the open where...
