The True Nature Of Bo's Tecmo Dominance
From our old friends at Kissing Suzy Kolber comes this rather classic video of showing just how great Bo Jackson was on Tecmo Bowl. It's a quarter-long touchdown run. This almost certainly happened to us repeatedly as a child....
What It Might Be Like When Stephon Marbury And Steve Francis Try To Share One Basketball
Big thanks to J.E. Skeets (who also takes a deeper look at the T.J. Ford/Charlie Villanueva trade) and the Basketball Jones for the heads-up....
Your Knicks Highlight Video
We have a feeling you could probably put together 15-20 ugly plays by any player, in any sport, and make them look like the worst player on earth. That said, this montage of Malik Rose "highlights" from last season still made us laugh ... mainly just because it's the Knicks. We'd love to see similar...
Your World Cup Halftime Entertainment
Courtesy of Caddychicks.com. What better way to spice up your boring, uneventful round of golf than by hiring young co-eds to ride along with you, get your ball, grab your tee, or,um, just stand around and look hot. If only they had this service for all intramural sports: intramuralsoftballchicks...
Many Happy Independence Day Returns
We're ducking out a half hour early today — which, mind you, is about three days later than just about everyone we know ducked out of their jobs — because tonight, of course, is the big Deadspin outing at RFK Stadium, and we have to make sure our tuxedo is back from the dry cleaners....
Dirk To Cuban: Pipe Down, Sparky
Dirk Nowitzki is taking his leadership role on the Dallas Mavericks seriously. He's not calling out another player, he's not even calling out a coach. He's got issues with team owner Mark Cuban. From an article in the Dallas Morning News, here's Dirk on Cuban's courtside behavior:...
Charlie Villanueva Finds A New Home
In need of a point guard, and realizing that free agents flock to Toronto like women flock to bloggers, the Raptors acquired a point guard in a trade last night. T.J. Ford heads north of the border, and Charlie Villanueva goes back the other way to play alongside Andrew Bogut in Milwaukee....
Get Your Isiah Popcorn Here!
Just to be cheap and pile on, we found this site which allows you to "become a Dale and Thomas popcorn affiliate. According to the site:...
Knicks Fans Share The Love
Earlier today we introduced you (and several NBA GMs, no doubt) to Knicks' No. 1 draft pick Renaldo Balkman. We'd like to formerly thank Isiah Thomas for making this selection, as it makes our job here so much easier than if he, say, picked someone logical. Knicks' fans, however, are not quite as ha...
Isiah Thomas' Secret Genius
While digging through the breathtaking True Hoop coverage, and after watching Jay Bilas look flabbergasted on "SportsCenter" this morning, we are pleased to report that one of the top stories the day after the NBA Draft is a familiar one: Isiah Thomas is an idiot!...
Some Big Hockey Happenings This Weekend...
• The NHL entry draft went down yesterday, and it included a record 10 American players taken in the first round. This, of course, builds tremendous hope that one day the United States will have an international hockey team that will generate tremendous interest and hype, only to fall flat on their ...
Cultural Oddsmaker: Isiah And The Knicks
A.J. Daulerio's Cultural Oddsmaker runs every Friday. Send him all kinds of fan mail....
Another Potential Duck Redesign
If you thought the Oregon Ducks' uniforms were ugly, Puck Update comes up with a redesign of the Anaheim Mighty Ducks that, frankly, would make us like both hockey and the Ducks much more than we do now....
Oregon Ducks Continue To Assault The Pupils
We've never had the inherent fascination with sports uniforms that some folks have — it is, after all, laundry — but we couldn't help but note the new Oregon Ducks football uniforms, which they call "the next step in uniform development," which we suppose is true if that step involves playing footba...
Mark Cuban's Relaxation Techniques
Our affection for Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban is well-documented, and we certainly don't mean to pile on during what's assuredly a difficult day for him. But nevertheless, we wouldn't be doing our job if we didn't show off these photos sent to us this morning, supposedly taken last Friday nigh...
The Faces Of Champions
That's right, folks, the wait is over: Antoine Walker, Shandon Anderson and Michael Doleac are finally champions....
Heat Win First-Ever Title, And Even Cuban's Classy About It
Even though their apparently show their loyalty by dressing up like Klan members — even when they're not actually at the arena in which the games are being played, like in this picture — and even though they don't have an owner whose brain is always on the verge of a noisy (and always smart and en...
And Without Any Further Blowups ... Game 6
Difficult to add much more to everything else that's out there: It's Game 6, the Heat are a game away from winning the NBA Title, Mark Cuban is $250,000 lighter and downright dog-nutty, Dwyane Wade getting his legend on and the referrees looking over their shoulders, making sure no one's got a shi...
Maurice Drew Doesn't Hate Your Nerd Ass That Much After All
If case you didn't remember, former UCLA running back (and now Jacksonville Jaguars rookie) Maurice Drew had been implicated in the Los Angeles Denny's incident in which Bears safety Ricky Manning and pals beat up a guy for using a laptop. (We're sure this happens to Cuban all the time.)...
Is Mark Cuban Going Insane?
We feel we have to legitimately ask: Is Mark Cuban losing his mind?...
