Chad Johnson Wants You To Keep The Tape Rolling
No matter what anyone says, it's still hard to adjust to the notion of Keyshawn Johnson wearing a suit and being introduced by Chris Berman. It's like the spectacle of Sitting Bull as part of Buffalo Bill's Wild West Show. Keyshawn was not meant to be tamed....
Iowa State's Mascot Is Somehow A Living Thing
Bringing you all things North Dakota State, Minnesota and NDSU are seesawing back and forth. NDSU has a 24-21 lead thanks to running back Tyler Roehl hitting the 250-yard mark on just 15 carries. But most of you are watching Iowa State-Oklahoma, Vanderbilt-South Carolina, Cincinnati-Pittsburgh, Indi...
How Pam Ward Can Get You Hammered
Not to slurp all over my cable provider, but Buckeye Cable is cool enough to not only provide the Big Ten Network, they actually air TWO games at once. So that's why I'm watching Minnesota-North Dakota State. It's tied 14-14, and apart from the sadness surrounding the fact that these two teams are o...
Just Another Peaceful Day Of Youth Baseball On Long Island
At first glance it's the story you've heard a hundred times before: Little League coach benches player for swearing; player calls dad on cell phone; dad and uncle arrive and pummel the coach unconscious on the pitcher's mound; arrests ensue. But this one has a few twists: Mob connections, federal wi...

Hugh II: The Nedyssey Continues ... Pt. Deux
The best college football game of the day might very well be happening in Canada. Yeah, you heard me. The Ontario University Athletics champs Ottawa Gee-Gees (6-0) are currently playing the Laurier Golden Hawks (also 6-0). Please stop laughing. Anyway, back to you; back to Hugh II ......
Hugh II: The Nedyssey Continues ...
OK, time to fire this baby up. I planned on grabbing a screen shot of Corso wearing that horse's head, but I couldn't find my damn camera. Oh well. ASU poon will have to do. Also, I'm not watching any college football right now. The Score is airing a celebrity poker match starring Jose Canseco and L...
Jamboroo, Week 6: John Skipper's Latest Leaked ESPN NFL Coverage Memo
Big Daddy Drew's Thursday Afternoon NFL Dick Joke Jamboroo previews the upcoming weekend of the NFL every, well, every Thursday afternoon....
That's All For Schuerholz
After 17 years, and an unprecedented 12 consecutive division titles, Atlanta Braves general manager John Schuerholz, the man John Rocker said had "the worst case of Little Man Syndrome I've ever met," has resigned from the Braves....
Hugh II: The Nedessey Continues... Part 2
The early games are beginning to wrap up and to everyone's surprise things have gotten quite a bit more interesting out there. Miami has launched an admirable comeback on their former coach and fierce rivals from Chapel Hill and Michigan State is in a shootout with Northwestern, the baddest motherfu...
Hugh II: The Nedessey Continues... Part 1
We're reaching halftime in the early games and the instant messages are really starting to pile up, this means it's time for your first dose of the Hugh! Illinois and North Carolina are winning big over Wisconsin and and Miami respectively and everybody's a bit freaked out. Let's all just take a big...
Rocky Mountain High (In Colorado)
As Tuco said when he got the drop on Clint Eastwood in The Good, the Bad and the Ugly, "There are two kinds of spurs, my friend. Those that come in by the door [crosses himself], and those that come in by the window." The Rockies came in the latter way, beating the Diamondbacks 4-3 on Sunday to forc...
So Much For Michigan Jokes
The Notre Dame jokes have outnumbered the Pam Ward jokes, so you know it's serious in South Bend. But Michigan and Illinois are both 2-0 in the Big Ten. South Carolina and their Smelley Cock may dodge an upset by Mississippi State. And my Air Force over Navy prediction looks completely wrong. Oh, an...
Differences Between New Orelans and Malibu Beach Are Subtle
So here we are at 3:00. LSU is beginning to pull away from Tulane, but still is too long away from a 40-point win. Michigan is coming back against Northwestern, Duke (!) has narrowed the Miami lead to three, and even though Notre Dame is on the board, you Deadspin readers might as well be the Purdue...
Gamecocks Are Aromatically Content With Their Quarterback Situation
Most of you seem to be watching either Michigan-Northwestern or Purdue-Notre Dame. Which makes sense, because, well, that's what's on. Purdue is shutting out UND, while Northwestern holds a 13-7 lead over the Wolverines. In other games: LSU has a mere 10-9 lead over Tulane, Illinois leads Penn State...
It's Funny, Because Erin Andrews Is Hot, Unlike Charlie Weis
I'm not anywhere near a TV right now — Starbucks doesn't believe in college football — but I'm just going to go out on a limb and say that Erin Andrews interviews Charlie Weis on College GameDay. Totally a wild guess. Now, on with Hugh II: And the Nedyssey Continues......
Hopefully Hugh know the drill by now. If Hugh see something amazing college football-related on TV, or Hugh come up with something incredibly poignant about college football, Hugh gotta tell me about it. Last call for Hugh II submissions are 4:00 p.m. ET. This means Newfoundlanders have until 5:30 p...

This young man is Bronson Sardinha, a September callup by the Yankees and a native of Hawaii. You can tell he's from Hawaii, because he has the strangest middle name we've ever heard from a Major League Baseball player....
