Kobe Totally Messes With ESPN's Newsroom
Sometimes we find ourselves so caught up in this world of professional athletics that we forget one of the fundamental tenets: There's rarely much reason to pay attention to what an athlete says. Kobe Bryant is preternaturally skilled at the sport of basketball; this does not mean anything he says h...

Kobe Bryant, All About The DRAMA
We have a hard time firing ourselves up about front-office intrigue, mainly because it's usually just people posturing about money and "respect" and all kinds of silliness. But we have been enjoying this Kobe Bryant and the Lakers business, if just because it's not every day that a guy who was once ...

Lakers Make It Just Interesting Enough To Ultimately Disappoint
In a way, we kind of agree with what Free Darko wrote in their playoff preview for us: This could end up being the one playoff series in which, if the Lakers lose, Kobe Bryant might get a pass. But he's not gonna be able to pull it off if the Lakers, you know, actually make it close. A four-game swe...

This Is A Nice Little Sunday Night, Yes?
Phil Jackson was right. It was hard out there for a pimp, and it was also pretty hard out there for any Los Angeles Laker not named Kobe Bryant to touch the goddamn basketball down the stretch of that game. I think Sasha Vujacic's hands are going to be permanently frozen in the "ready to catch" posi...

ESPN Turns "Douche" Into "######"
We will confess, a little bit of Paul Shirley's I'm A WRITER Who Happens To Play Basketball! schtick goes a long way.

Kobe Displays His Beef
I know I promised you no more kicker cock, but I don't recall saying anything about nude NBA 2-guards. Mr. Smith mentioned it briefly yesterday, but I thought it deserved its own post. It's not every day you see Kobe Bryant naked, although that might happen more often that it should....
