Peyton Manning Watch: Decisions, Decisions, Decisions
Lost in all the madness of the tournament this weekend (it was lost to me, anyway) is that Peyton Manning is whittling his options down and my sources tell me he has it down to three teams: the Tennessee Titans, the Denver Broncos and the San Francisco 49ers....

Alex Ovechkin Picked Norfolk State (And So Did A Hairless Cat)
Everyone needs to take back all the mean things they said about Alex Ovechkin's third-grade napkin scrawl of a bracket. He nailed the Norfolk State over Mizzou upset, and appears to have them advancing to the Elite Eight....
Here's Video Of Police Arresting A Family That Chanted Prayers And Danced Naked Around A High School Parking Lot
The video above shows the scene earlier this afternoon outside Upper Darby High School in suburban Philly. The footage was sent to us by a reader, and it looks and sounds like it was filmed by a student inside a classroom at the school. As the scene unfolds, the students watching from inside the s...
Nicolas Cage, Dying (And Humping January Jones) Before Our Very Eyes
We have reached the point where the release of a new Nicolas Cage movie is less fodder for humor than it is an indignity upon everyone involved with its making. It is odd, actually, that movies like Seeking Justice, which will slink across 250 screens today, less a movie release than a walk of shame...

Can you pinpoint the precise moment the Peyton Manning chase turned insane?...
A Clearly Bored Steve Smith Tried (And Failed) To Touch Virtual Graphics On-Air Today
Former Michigan State basketball star Steve Smith is part of the revolving door of Turner basketball analysts feeding the NCAA tournament frenzy on TNT, TBS, and TruTV—and it seems he's already grown bored, given his wandering off-set and into the augmented reality graphics onscreen. It's only mad...
A Reminder That You Are Not Allowed To Blow A Ball Foul

Kentucky Fans Are Convinced That UPS Is Out To Get Them
Perhaps you've seen this UPS ad, which has aired since conference tournaments began. Seizing on their new tagline of "logistics," it features the famous 1992 regional final between Kentucky and Duke that ended on Christian Laettner's buzzer-beater.

What Is Going On With All The Doping In Wheelchair Curling?
Stop reading right now if you'd like to believe that curling, or the Paralympics, or frigging Paralympic Curling is the last bastion of drug-free sports in the world today. Nothing is pure anymore. Jim Armstrong, a member of the Canadian Curling Hall of Fame and skip of Canada's 2010 Paralympic gold...
Dee Gordon Walks, Keeps On Going To Second
Dodgers speedster Dee Gordon takes advantage of a Royals' lapse in concentration, and after drawing a walk, takes off for second before the next batter steps in. On one hand, that move relies on the element of surprise and can only be pulled off once in a blue moon, so why waste it in spring train...
Snowmobiling Across A Body Of Water Looks Just As Thrilling As It Seems Like It Would Be
It's called snowmobile skipping, and apparently it's a thing. The idea is to develop enough speed to hydroplane across the water's surface. The person armed with a camera while doing it here, on Stoney Lake in Ontario, Canada, succeeds brilliantly. That said, YouTube's got plenty of other videos th...
Since December, 16 Horses Have Died At Aqueduct Racetrack
Since the start of the winter meet at Aqueduct, 16 horses have broken down, all on the weatherproofed inner track. Suddenly, being a stunthorse on Luck doesn't seem like such a bad idea. New York's governor has asked the NY Racing Association to commission an independent investigation. [Daily Racing...
Chien-Ming Wang Injures Himself Attempting The Always-Tricky "Step On First Base" Play
Wang left in the third inning of today's spring training start after breaking down while attempting to beat a runner to the bag. It's funny, but it's not funny, because it was another non-pitching related activity—running the bases in interleague play—that turned Wang from a 19-game winner into a ...

If You're Gambling On March Madness With Your PayPal Account, You Might Want To Stop Now
If you're a tech-savvy gambler of a certain ilk, then you may already be using PayPal to make your payments and transfers convenient and easier to track (illicit or otherwise). The thing is, that's not kosher as far as PayPal is concerned, and eBay's in-house payment subsidiary has started actively ...
