One More Time To Kill the Pain
Well here we are, staring at what's likely to be the final game of the 2007 Major League Baseball season. If Leitch were here he'd probably be inconsolable, but I think I'm handling it just fine. After the marathon regular season the post season has been unremarkable at best. I'm ready for next year...

Luis Castillo Is On That "Stuff" Again
In China they say that a hippopotamus in your swimming pool is a sign of good fortune and virility*. In San Diego it means that the poor big bastard needed to soak his shit out. Seriously, those wildfires will dry out your skin before you know it....
Colleen Bellotti Is In Tents
Colleen Bellotti-who may or may not be the First Lady of Oregon football-laid in to the Oregonian's John Canzano at Saturday's game, and she didn't care who was around.

OK, Peyton Can Keep His Job
Damn, just when you write off Peyton Manning as a fluke he comes back to life! Since we last checked in he's added a pair of touchdown passes (Wayne and Addai) and the Colts have pulled away from the first place Panthers. Wait...Carolina's in first place? I don't think I want to live in such a world...
English Football (The Real Kind)
Liverpool took an early lead within the friendly confines of Anfield but they couldn't hold off red-hot Arsenal for the full 90 minutes.

Our Big Ben Can't Tell Time Or Hold His Liquor, But He Can Throw

Conversely Ben Roethlisberger is 10-12 for 136 yards with two satisfying touchdowns. Willie Parker has ...
Undefeated Teams Remain Undefeated
Boston College got things off to a good start for the undefeated teams back on Thursday night. By the time Monday morning rolled around all four of the unbeaten BCS schools remained perfect.

This Is Why You Hire a Darren Prince
What can I say about Dennis Rodman that hasn't already been said about Liz Taylor on a year-long acid trip? Hmmm....I'll have to get back to you on that one. Apparently Mr. Rodman uses the holiday of Halloween to dress himself in outrageous fashion—who knew?! If this is how the former rebounding ki...
Ho-ly Crap
Really, is there anything else left to say? There were like 15 laterals there for Trinity University of San Antonio and it all resulted in a 24-22 win over [Paul] Millsap....
What the Bloggers Are Saying
What the bloggers are saying about the latest victory by the Boston Red Sox from all corners of the internets.... • Out Come the Brooms.

Boston's Rookies Are Too Much For Colorado
Who needs Papi, Manny, and Beckett when you've got Dustin, Jacoby, and Matsuzaka? The trio of rookies set the tone for the Boston Red Sox in their Game 3 victory over the Colorado Rockies. Jacoby Ellsbury moved into the leadoff spot and he responded with four big hits. Fellow rookie Dustin Pedroia m...
Once In a Blue Moon
The World Series has finally come to the hallowed grounds of Coors Field and Denver is welcoming the Red Sox with balmy 36 degree weather. It's Dice-K vs. Fogg and they're both going to be wielding the half-frozen lumber. Terry Francona has opted to hold Kevin Youkilis' bat and glove, somebody shoul...
One Year Since Pure Bliss
Unsilent's gonna throw up a World Series post in a few minutes, but we absolutely could not let the day pass without commemorating the year anniversary of the St. Louis Cardinals winning the World Series.
