Local News Anchor Randomly Slips An "Overrated" Into A Segment About Dwyane Wade's Book Signing
It would have been so easy to get through this by just reading off the teleprompter. Few segments require editorializing less than the "sports star promotes book about fatherhood" segment. But the teleprompter's not enough for the anchor of WJLA in Washington DC, who calls Dwyane Wade "the overrat...
Your College Football Open Thread
Early games—I don't know, maybe Virginia at TCU has potential? West Virginia will probably curb stomp Maryland and that could be fun. Don't forget Northwestern Oklahoma State at UT-San Antionio, which you can watch on Nowhere via your handheld Nothing, at 2 p.m....
Kentucky Freshman Misses Dunk In Most Farcical Way Possible
Nerlens Noel is the prized pupil in John Calipari's newest crop of one-year athlete-students.

We didn't quite expect this video to become an Internet sensation when we posted it earlier this week, but goodness gracious do people love pantomimed blowjobs.

<em>Vogue</em> Profiles A <em>Vogue</em>-Appropriate Version Of Tim Tebow
How does the nation's leading women's fashion magazine justify a profile of a homeschooled evangelical second-string football player? You Vogue him up, that's how. You make Tim Tebow into a style icon (when he's not) and a social butterfly who's eating up the New York party scene (when he's not). Yo...
Ballhawk Zack Hample Was Kicked Out Of Nationals Park Last Night, And He Is Pissed About It
We've met Zack Hample before, and we haven't exactly been kind to him. That's because Hample is a ballhawk—a member of that fraternity of obsessive dudes who hang around ballparks and trample babies whenever Omar Infante flips a baseball into the stands. Nevertheless, Zack reached out to us this mo...

Arkansas Football Coach John L. Smith Has Only $500 In His Checking Account
John L. Smith might be imploring others to smile these days, but a quick glance at the Arkansas football coach's finances reveals nothing so humorous. Smith recently filed for Chapter 7 bankruptcy, and documents filed today in federal court show that he has only some $1.2 million in assets, compare...
Rumor We Wish Were True But Isn't: Mark Schlereth Pisses On Towels In An ESPN Closet
Mark Schlereth's nickname is Stink. That's because he used to pee his pants a lot during his NFL days. Let's revisit Anthony Gargano's 2010 book NFL Unplugged:...

Arkansas Coach John L. Smith Will Not Tolerate You Not Smiling
A bad offseason for Arkansas football has turned into a bad regular season, but at least head coach John L. Smith is still willing to have a little fun with the press corps along the way.

On His Blog, Teemu Selänne Says Gary Bettman "Is Certainly The NHL's Most Hated Person"
Teemu Selänne has been an NHL player for 20 years, but he's also been writing an occasional blog post for MTV3 (!) in Finland (!!) since July 2010.

Is It Poor Form To Literally Rip A Home Run Ball Out Of Another Fan's Hand?
This is from Anthony Rizzo's first of two home runs yesterday (the Pirates' collapse continues apace). I want to draw your attention not to the play, but to the two gentlemen in center, struggling over that all-important baseball. Who has the moral high ground, and the right to the ball?...
Idiot On The Field During Jacksonville Game Actually Outgained The Jaguars, Thanks To Security Ignoring Him
Late in yesterday's embarrassing Jaguars performance at home against the Texans, a presumably beer-fueled fan took to EverBank Field to perform the usual jackassery of an Idiot On The Field. As the crowd cheered his antics, though, yellow-shirted security completely ignored what was happening on t...
Here's A South Carolina Trainer Eyefucking Bruce Ellington
Ooh, 20 yards per catch? You know what that does to me, even if it is against a Conference USA team. God, that crop top/shoulder wrap combo should be illegal. What's that? The quarterback broke his arm? Tell him to take an Aleve, I'm busy here. Mmm, so busy. You must be tired, Bruce. You've been r...

A field judge in last week's Seattle Seahawks-Arizona Cardinals game—a game where Seattle was awarded an extra timeout—has worked Seattle practices over the past three years.
