Ronnie Wilson Wants You To Say Hello To His Little Friend
Gators offensive guard Ronnie Wilson was arrested in April of 2007 for firing an AK-47. According to Wilson, he did it because he wanted the intended victim to know what it felt like to be scared.

Can The Redeem Team Win The Gold With Kobe Playing Like Pete Myers?

Which NBA Player Was Hitting On Kara Goucher?
The sinewy young lady in this picture is Kara Goucher, who will be representing the U.S. in both the 5,000m and 10,000m in Beijing. She's a pleasant, friendly woman, who's been "writing home" about her Olympic experience for the Duluth News Tribune. She had an amusing little anecdote in her entry on...

College Football Previews: #23 Wake Forest
We're rolling through the top 25 of the coaches poll. Today we've got Wake Forest and, shortly, Penn State.

Mike Nadel Keeps His Erin Andrews Takedown Fame Afloat For One More Day

Even The Little Girls In China Are CGI-Enhanced

No, Mark Spitz Will Not Go Quietly. And Why Should He?
Good line by a commenter on last night's DUAN, "Mark Spitz is printing 6-1 t-shirts as we speak." And it wouldn't surprise me to peak into Spitz's basement and see said shirts actually in production. If he wasn't rooting against Michael Phelps before, he most likely is now that he's been snubbed by ...

Mike Krzyzewski Welcomes You Aboard The Showboat
