Mark Sanchez Silenced Tebow Supporters While Throwing For The Third-Lowest Passing Yards In His Career
Guess what, Mark Sanchez haters? Mr. Poise 2009 has made you all shut up. During the Jets' two-game strugglefest (with losses to the 49ers and Texans), Tim Tebow supporters wanted Sanchez replaced, crying, "tim tewbow as stater job!" But now, with the Jets routing the Colts on Sunday, Sanchez can w...
Yankee Fans Are Really Harshing Nick Swisher's Buzz, Bro
It was not a good weekend for the Yankees. Not only did they drop two games at home against the Tigers, they also lost Derek Jeter for the rest of the postseason and received minimal support from the fans in a sparsely populated Yankee Stadium. And you know who's really sad about that last part? Ni...

South Carolina Fan Arrested For Mooning The Crowd At LSU Game
You do get the feeling that Saturday night's game would have been extra-frustrating for a Gamecocks fan who traveled all the way from South Carolina only to watch his No. 3 team get upset in Baton Rouge. So that explains, but does not excuse, the actions of Charles Hattaway, a 34-year-old from Charl...
Seahawks DB Richard Sherman Intercepts Tom Brady, Snickers At Him With "U Mad Bro?" Picture On Twitter After The Game
Predictably, the actual tweets have since been deleted, but Seahawks cornerback Richard Sherman tweeted the picture above after the Seahawks 24-23 comeback win over the Patriots Sunday evening. Sherman, it seems, is a bit of a chatter and was in Brady's ear all day, especially so after intercepting...
Jeter-less Yankees And McCarver Doing "Who's On First" By Himself: Your Championship Series Open Thread
It's the Tigers in the Bronx again at 4:00 p.m. on TBS, in a series that has so far been essentially bereft of story lines, and robbed of any dramatic potential. Oh here's a story line—why are there so many fat guys on the Tigers? The Cardinals play the Giants in game one of their series at 8:00 p....
Good News, Everyone, A-Rod Is Back: Your ALCS Open Thread
Mr. October July? Rodriguez is back in the starting line-up (if you call "batting sixth" the starting line-up). Dog Fister and Andy Pettitte square off in chilly New York, and the ghosts of Orioles past will fly aimlessly through stadium, moaning resonantly and giving players from both sides the chi...
Your College Football Open Thread
A straightforward day of football watching awaits for those of you with no specific affiliations. Noon: the Sooners play the Longhorns in Dallas, which is almost exactly between the Norman, OK campus of OU and the Austin, TX campus of UT. Neutral location! At 3:30, Stanford heads to Notre Dame in t...
Your Orioles-Yankees And Nationals-Cardinals Open Thread
Get excited! We've got two elimination games slated for today, as both series have come down to a Game 5. Will the Orioles continue their unlikely run through the postseason? Will Natitude prevail? Will Alex Rodriguez overdose on sleeping pills in the dugout?...
Weep For The Millionaire College Football Coaches Who Can't Sell Their Million-Dollar Homes
Being a Division I college football coach is hard. You get paid millions of dollars, you get to bully your post-adolescent free labor into doing whatever you want them to do, and you get painted as a demigod by football-obsessed towns and campuses. It's a tough gig....
Once Upon A Time, The Jets Were Willing To Bench Mark Sanchez
Drew Stanton was a Jet for all of a week. He signed to be the backup to Mark Sanchez, but other events intervened. Peyton Manning decided on the Broncos, so Tim Tebow became expendable. The Jets traded for Tebow, at a not-insignificant cost in both draft pick and money, and Stanton was the odd man o...
Student Reporters: Did A College Coach Ever Treat You Like Shit? Let Us Know.
We told you the other day about Charlie Weis, who flipped his shit over the coverage of his mighty Kansas Jayhawks in KU's student newspaper. A flack followed up with some passive-aggressive crypto-bullying of a student reporter. By all indications, going back to his time at Notre Dame, this is how ...

Is South Carolina Hypnotizing Opponents With "Gay Techno Glow-Stick Music?"
South Carolina has had to scrap on the road this year, but has looked nigh-unbeatable at Williams-Brice, including spanking Georgia this past weekend. A lesser intellect would be content to chalk that up to typical home-field advantage. But the denizens of the SECRant message boards are no lesser ...
Your MLB Quadruple-Header Double-Header Open Thread
Four baseball games yesterday, four baseball games today. We all win! Game five of Reds-Giants is underway, with game four of Nats-Cards (4:07 p.m.), game four of O's-Yanks (7:37 p.m.), and game five of Tigers-A's (9:37 p.m.) scorching at you afterward on Ted Turner's family of television networks. ...

Lance Armstrong Says He's Going To Be Just Fine, You Guys
What's that you say? Rough day for Lance Armstrong? Nah, even though his entire legacy and reputation is on the brink of complete ruin, in the wake of being identified as the quasi-ringleader of a "highly professionalized team-run doping conspiracy." So how's he handling these devastating developme...
Charlie Weis Does Not Want Kansas's Student Newspaper Asking Him Questions
Charlie Weis got a little snippy last week after The University Daily Kansan, Kansas's student newspaper, published a cover illustration of a tiny Jayhawk clinging to a goalpost being carried by a burly Kansas State Wildcat. The cover art, which ran under the headline, "Road Kill Ahead," was a clear...
