Please Don't Make Legends Wear Their Old Uniforms
Most frighteningly, as The Serious Tip points out, their collective voices sounds like ... well, an old friend....
Vinny Del Fuego Returns To The NBA
We don't know about you, but man, are we ever giddy about the Bulls' hiring of Vinny Del Negro as their new head coach. Vinny Del Feugo! Heavens, how we've missed that guy; NBA Jam never would have survived without him....
Lamar Odom Wants You To Know Boston Sucks
This Lakers fan T-shirt might seem particularly ill-timed to you, what with the Lakers down 2-0 to the Celtics and looking like they could really use a certain seven-foot-tall 20-something center with knee issues. But you don't know the half of it....
Media Approval Ratings: Skip Bayless
It's kind of amazing to think that, at one point, Skip Bayless was one of the top up-and-coming sportswriters in the country. At the age of 25, Bayless was hired as lead columnist for the Dallas Morning News, an amazing opportunity. He embraced this job by constantly claiming Troy Aikman was gay. An...
For The First Time, You Can Bet On A Gay Sports Event
Call it either a leap forward for equality in gay sports, or just the last refuge for the helplessly addicted gambler, but for the first time, you can bet on a gay sporting event....
To Live, Lose And Be Pummeled In L.A.
That's actually a substantial fight, one worthy of praise; had there been a game going on, they'd have broken it up so much sooner. We hope this was a run-of-the-mill dispute, the kind that happens when you file thousands of people into a confined space to watch the home team stink it up for three-p...
Joba Would Like To Take Off the Training Wheels Now
Until Hank Steinbrenner can get Dayan Viciedo signed, five innings of Joba Chamberlain are going to have to do. Chamberlain, who was lambasted by critics and audiences alike in his first starting role last week, came back with a slightly stronger effort on Sunday to lead the Yankees over the Royals...
You Always Gotta Put A Body On Leon Powe
We knew Henry Abbott had come a long way over at TrueHoop, but did you realize he was live blogging with Dr. Jack Ramsey?. How do you think they explain to Dr. Jack what a live blog is? Does he have any idea what's going on?...
Lakers Get Bleeps In Gear, Almost Steal Game 2
The NBA Closer is written by Matt McHale, who would like to know where the bleep Boston's killer instinct is. When he's not freaking the bleep out over the Celtics playing stall ball, he can be found venting his bleeping angst over it at bleeping Basketbawful. Enjoy!...
Hey! Game 2 Is Here! What, Already?
Thanks for the three-day delay between games at the same site, NBA. Kobe might have to skip out on the Olympics with this series scheduled to go on for the entirety of the summer. Just more time for Paul Pierce to get ready to play act some more and Kobe to prepare to be swallowed up by more Celtic...

The Red Wings Are Taking Good Care Of Lord Stanley's Cup
The Detroit Red Wings have been partying it up with their newly acquired Stanley Cup, taking it to defenseman Chris Chelios' downtown Detroit restaurant for a night of boozing. Play nice with her, fellas. Oop. Too late. You already damaged it. Busted Coverage has a short recap of some of the revelry...
Meet The Mets, Beat The Mets
A dastardly sot went after Mr. Met at a game last Saturday, the New York Post reports. So bound and determined was he to inflict pain on the mascot, he wasn't going to let children, or pregnant women or rare butterflies get in his way. Is hurting mascots all that fun? Seems like somebody has seen t...
Jim McKay 1921-2008
Though 25-year-old youngins like myself didn't get to see much of him in his heyday, seeing only swatches of memorable moments like his work at the 1972 Munich Olympics and on the Wide World of Sports, it's been nice reading through the various tributes to the man, further tinged with sadness that h...

Jesus Sportsblogging Christ, I Hate This Ad
Forgive the momentary diversion, but I've taken as much as I can from this G2 ad and I can't takes no more. Seriously, what the fuck is the deal with this thing? The Sporting Blog had a fine piece the other week decrying the various grating NBA Playoff commercials that are quickly driving us to self...

Kwame Kilpatrick Will Never Send You Naughty Text Messages After This
Beleaguered Detroit mayor Kwame Kilpatrick was not received warmly at the Red Wings victory extravaganza yesterday. Maybe it has something to do with the sundry scandals and the vetoing of the funds set aside to remove him from office. The booing doesn't even fade after the proffering of free beer. ...
