Omar Vizquel Was Ejected From A Game In Which He Wasn't Even Playing
Home plate umpire Sam Holbrook ejected veteran Blue Jays infielder Omar Vizquel from tonight's Texas-Toronto game for arguing balls and strikes. That's a big no-no in the umps-rule-all majors, of course, but tonight's twist is that Vizquel wasn't even in the game at the time; Holbrook took offens...
Jay Bruce Homers, Child Naps, Guy Drops Ball While Holding Napping Child

Child At Royals Game Is Handed A Foul Ball, Promptly Throws It Back

Don't Dare Mention J.P. Arencibia's Insanely Low Batting Average
Master Tim Kurkjian impressionist J.P. Arencibia got himself into a little tiff this morning when he started making fat jokes aimed at a Long Island radio personality who dared bring up his atrocious season-starting stats. ESPN's Keith Law brought the tweet to the masses, and when Baseball Prospectu...
LeBron And Jay-Z Have A Secret Handshake
We regret missing this after the Nets-Heat game on Monday night, but you ought to forgive us because it was a game that involved the New Jersey Nets. LeBron James scored the Heat's final 17 points—Miami outscored Jersey by 12 in the fourth quarter but only won by three—and then shook hands with Net...
The Blue Jays' Attempt To Stop Opening Day Fights Through Alcohol Restrictions Didn't Work
We told you yesterday about the Blue Jays' attempts to limit beer consumption during their home opener in an attempt to curtail rowdy behavior, but it didn't seem to work. Not only was there a fight in the normally-sedate 100 section, but things got a bit out of hand elsewhere as well. Here's a fi...
When It Comes To Sexually Suggestive T-Shirts, Blue Jays Fans Go The Extra Kilometre
These young ladies offering Blue Jays catcher J.P. Arencibia certain favors may have elected to rescind the offer after his inability to field a relay and apply the tag helped the Red Sox take a 4-2 lead from which Toronto wouldn't recover. But, hey: with another terrible Maple Leafs season over, ...
It Will Be Hard, But Not Impossible, To Get Drunk At The Blue Jays' Home Opener
A reminder to Blue Jays fans that you should probably get hammered before going through the turnstiles tonight, as the Rogers Centre will be severely curtailing beer sales since you've proven you can't hold your alcohol. Look at you. You're a drunken sloppy mess and you're never going to make anythi...
Kanye West Claims He Could Have Jay-Z Drop Kris Humphries From The Nets In New Song "Theraflu" [NSFW]
So here's something you may or may not know. Kanye West released a new song on Wednesday called "Theraflu."

Wilt And Phog, Two Jayhawks Passing In The Night
Forced to retire at 70 years old, Phog Allen landed one last recruit: a tall kid out of Philadelphia named Wilt.

Kansas Has The Only Female Strength And Conditioning Coach In Men's Division I Basketball
Andrea Hudy is her name and, according to (former Deadspin Bentern) Ben Cohen's nice profile in the Wall Street Journal, she is believed to be Division I's only strength and conditioning coach who is simultaneously female. Hudy began her career at UConn, where she worked with both the men's and wom...

Watch Creighton's Grant Gibbs Inbound The Ball Off An Alabama Guy's Back And Score
These are always great. Grant Gibbs goes off Nick Jacobs's lumbar for the easy layup, giving us the rare and wonderful highlight/lowlight combo. (Creighton won the game by a point.) Clark Kellogg calls it a "smart schoolyard play," which raises the question: What kind of schoolyard game features i...
