Things may not be as grim for Jerry Sandusky as they seem, Philadelphia Weekly informs us today. The reasons for that are codified into Pennsylvania law:...
Sam Hurd Was A "Top Drug Dealer" In City And Dealt To Fellow Players, Reports Chicago Radio Station
We figured that the case against Sam Hurd, who was arrested yesterday after allegedly attempting to purchase a large amount of cocaine from a federal agent, could get a whole lot messier as the details unfolded, but we didn't expect this: Chicago's 670 The Score reports that the police actually have...
I-Team: Tell Us About This Adult Hockey League Poop Fight

Here's The Bizarre Kristi Malzahn Interview Somebody's Trying To Sweep Off The Internet
We became aware of this a while ago, but seeing as how all public copies seem to have been swept off the web here's the wife of new Arkansas State head football coach Gus Malzahn acting very strangely at a church in Springdale, Ark. It is, alas, an edited version (sports agent John Phillips is tak...
David Stern Did The Right Thing With Chris Paul
That's a painful headline to write, and especially inconceivable after the histrionics that followed the NBA's veto of a deal that would have sent Chris Paul to the Lakers last week. It was a power trip, a violation of Dell Demps's autonomy, and maybe even an anti-trust violation: and as it turns ou...
Jerry Sandusky Has The Mental And Emotional Maturity Of A Teenager, According To Sandusky's New Lawyer
You've heard (an awful, awful lot) from Joe Amendola, the lead attorney for Jerry Sandusky's defense. Now you will hear from his co-counsel, Karl Rominger, who appeared on CNN to explain away Sandusky's disturbing Bob Costas interview last month with the following description of his client:...
Please Kaner, Don't Hurt 'Em
When we received a reminder from the NHL about last night's NHL 36, a docu-reality show featuring Patrick Kane, the nice PR person predicted that we would make fun of him. (I can't imagine why!) Before we had a chance, Kane scored a shootout clincher that makes us want to take back every joke we'v...
Bears Receiver Sam Hurd Arrested After Allegedly Trying To Purchase 5 To 10 Kilos Of Cocaine From A Federal Agent
Even though Chicago brought in Roy Williams this offseason, Bears wide receiver Sam Hurd may have been the more disappointing former Cowboy. Hurd has only eight catches (no touchdowns) all season, and he's staring down some major federal drug charges....
Blake Griffin And Co.'s Reactions To The Chris Paul Trade Were Caught On Tape: "Lob City!"
The Clippers successfully traded for Chris Paul yesterday, which was a bit of a shock for basketball fans, because it means that Los Angeles's other NBA team might actually be somewhat relevant this season or next....
This Young Penguins Fan Is Devastated By His Parents' Unabashed Support Of The Red Wings
Your morning roundup for Dec. 15, the day we learned the hypocrisy of Internet piracy. Video from 96.1 Kiss FM, via Puck Daddy. Got any stories or photos for us? Tip your editors....
One Of Jerry Sandusky's Lawyers Says He Was Only Trying To Teach Troubled Youth How To Shower Properly
A new attorney, Karl Rominger, recently joined up with Jerry Sandusky's defense team, and he's starting to make Lawyerin' Joe Amendola, Sandusky's blundering counsel, look like Larry Tribe....
Chris Paul Headed To The Clippers, For Real This Time
Marc Stein is first to the post with news that the Clippers caved and will include Eric Gordon in a deal for Chris Paul, as long as Neil Olshey says "no takesies backsies" before David Stern can veto. The haul is pretty good for New Orleans: Gordon, Chris Kaman, Al-Farouq Aminu, and Minnesota's firs...
Gifts For Sports Fans Who Wear Clothes
Buying apparel for the sports fan is a slippery slope. You know they want to show loyalty to their team, but wearing a jersey outside the stadium or sports bar isn't acceptable once they're 18. We've put together some options that manage to ooze fandom and class....
Molesty Sixers Mascot Needs Somebody Inside Him
We're just going to assume that B. Franklin Dogg is going to win the fan vote to become the next 76ers mascot, because his bedroom eyes and S&M collar make us laugh every time. He's McGruff, the Sex Crime Dog. "Hey kids! B. Franklin Dogg's van is full of candy!"...
Ndamukong Suh Decides Image Isn't Tarnished Enough, Walks Out On Weekly Radio Interview
Ndamukong Suh is returning from the suspension he earned with a Thanksgiving Day stomp, but he wasn't willing to talk about the aftermath (or his car accident) to Mike Valenti and Terry Foster during his weekly interview on 97.1 The Ticket, the Lions' flagship station in Detroit....
Everything You Ever Wanted To Know About How Spectacularly Broke The Mets (And Their Owners) Are
Dan Lewis at Amazin' Avenue makes sense of the Mets' finances so you don't have to. Essentially, they're fucked independent of Bernie Madoff, and everything the team could conceivably sell is mortgaged. Makes you yearn for a couple months ago, when the team was a fuzz less fucked, but still fucked. ...
The Worst Way To Find Out Santa Isn't Real: From A Patriots Punter
FOX in Boston did a spot with Julian Edelman and Zoltan Mesko at the Patriots' annual charity event. Interesting choice of players since Edelman's Jewish and Mesko, being Romanian, probably worships the Great Fire Eagle or something. As a kicker, the reporter asked the pair what they want for Chri...
Metta World Peace Is Just As Insane As Ron Artest
Ron Artest's jersey now says "World Peace" on the back, and presumably he's become an entirely different person since the name change became official. But there's one Artest quality we can still count on: Metta World Peace is still totally insane....

Every morning, the fine folks at Sports Radio Interviews sift through the a.m. drive-time chatter to bring you the best interviews with coaches, players, and personalities across the sports landscape. Today: the new Jayhawks coach isn't in this for the long haul....
