Another Michigan Football Bet Gone Awry
Mike Stone says that he is not a good looking man, and is an even a worse looking woman. The Detroit sports radio personality, who has a weekend show on WXYZ-TV, bet someone at the station that Michigan would beat Purdue, and as a result had to do his show in drag. I think we're all losers here. Bet...

It hasn't been officially announced yet, but Ken Rosenthal is reporting that Mike Mussina will retire this week, ending an 18-year major league career. He pitched in 538 games for the Orioles and Yankees, appeared on five all-stars teams and in 16 postseason series, including 2 World Series, yet if ...
Is This The Most Suggestive Sports Headline Ever Written?
When I worked at the Peninsula Times-Tribune in Palo Alto, Calif., (former home of Ray Ratto!) a young copy editor came up with a rather inadvertently amusing headline for a story in the features section: You May Be To Blame If Your Dog Won't Come. That still ranks in my top 10 of funny suggestive h...

York College Wrestlers Are 0-3 Against Herpes
When I get herpes I want it to be from a traditional source like a bathroom doorknob or Paris Hilton, not a college wrestler. And certainly not a college wrestler from a division III school. No offense to York College of Pennsylvania, which has a prestigious wrestling program, and also sells "York C...

Wednesday Night Live Blog: #17 Ball State at Central Michigan
Ahhh. Mid-American Conference football. You were born a fan, it's just that nobody told you until tonight. The undefeated Ball State Cardinals flutter into Mount Pleasant to tangle with some fired up Chips. Winner probably wins the MAC West Division, a fact which you already knew. Also something you...
Baby Mangino's True Identity ... Revealed!
You know, when this loveable little tyke first appeared in the inbox, no one knew where he lived or what his secret Clark Kent-like identity was and, frankly, I didn't want to know. The mystery was part of his charm, like a magic trick you can't figure out, but after the strong outpouring of support...
Bookie Mom's Big Day And Other Fallout From The Steelers-Chargers Debacle
Since football fans don't have much else to do between Monday and (now) Thursday nights, there's still plenty to talk about when it comes to that crazy Pittsburgh-San Diego game that changed the face of gambling sports for ever. Of course, just because we're talking about it, doesn't mean we're "tal...

The Deadspin Morning Video Wake Up Call will return for a brief period of time from today through the holidays. If you have any suggested videos to fill this space, email us.

Morning Blogdome: We've Got Googlies, Yes We Do
[email protected] takes you by the heart, when it takes you by the hand. Who will serve us tea?: Cheerleaders in cricket? Actually, that's a lot like I'd expect it to be. [Lion In Oil] Available in bulk!: Did you know that you can get discounted Knicks tickets at Costco? I guess that explains w...
Kentucky Falls To North Carolina Despite Ashley Judd's Admonitions For Improved Defense
You have to hand it to Ashley Judd. The accomplished actress who has starred in dozens of movies I haven't seen was a tireless Obama supporter, and during a campaign stop in Chapel Hill last month, made a promise to sit in the UNC cheering section during the Kentucky game if Obama carried North Caro...
Metaphors For Eli Manning Are Everywhere
Got an image you'd like to see in here first thing in the morning? Send it to [email protected].

(The only text in the email was "drove into building", which is incredibly unhe...
Tuesday Night Live Blog: Kentucky Wildcats vs. #1 UNC Tar Heels
The 24 hours of maddening college basketball is almost at an end, so let's Rosie Ruiz our way to the finish line and reap the celebratory final paces. Tradition University squares off against Heritage State in a game that Tyler Hansbrough is too proud (and hurt) to be a part of, but that doesn't mea...
Today Is A Day You Can Easily Find Yourself Blinded By Erin Andrewsness
First America's favorite sideline princess popped up on Dan Patrick's radio show, and playfully engaged in back-and-forth with her former ESPN co-worker about sideline horror stories, including the time that fleet-footed Joe Paterno blew right by her on the way to the locker room . Andrews also chat...
Tyler Hansbrough Welcomes You To The All-Day College Basketball Brain Smasher

Rich Rodriguez To Michigan Fanboys: "Get A Life"
It's safe to say that the Rich Rodriguez Era at Michigan is not going as planned. (If you're a Michigan State or Ohio State fan, however, you're probably thinking that it could not have been planned better.) The Wolverines are in the midst of a historically awful season that has fans and alumni noti...
Chinese Democracy, 15 Years Down, Five Days To Go
Of all the Guns 'N Roses stories, the "Rocket Queen" one is my favorite. When "Appetite For Destruction" was recorded, the moaning sounds on the album's closer (which might be my favorite G'N'R song, actually), were captured while Adriana Smith, a 19-year-old stripper who had been dating drummer St...
