Watch Jerry Rice Crank It, Watch Jerry Rice Roll ...
Watch Jerry Rice crank dat Soulja Boy, then Super Man dat ho! I have to admit, I was impressed at how quickly Rice seemed to pick up the steps. Maybe that Dancing With the Stars bull-shit was worth it after all. And hey, is Patrick Ewing Jr. a certified Soulja Boy dance instructor or something? I su...

NCAA Blogdome: Wildcat ... Wild ... Cat... Pow
As much as I'd like to discuss yesterday's crazy college game, I fear I wouldn't do it any justice. I just can't get into the college athletics like you die-hards do. I blame my Canadianess. And my mom. But hey, let's see what the Internets are saying about Kentucky's 43-37 triple-overtime win over ...
Get Hammered With Lou Holtz
We're still rather amazed by Lou Holtz's magic trick, so perhaps that's clouding our judgment, but we're really starting to fall in love with Holtz's weekly "pep talks." They're bizarre, out-of-place and entirely self-contained, to the point that we find ourselves legitimately pepped! Fire us up, Lo...
It's Scary Down There In Baton Rouge
Last weekend, the genius that is Orson Swindle at Every Day Should Be Saturday attended the Florida-LSU game in Baton Rouge. We've never been to an SEC football game, but, man, do we want to now. We've never heard a better description of the madness of college football Saturday in the South than thi...

Of Monday Hangovers, Booty Calls, And The Biggest Upset In College Football History
To put Stanford's win over USC into the proper perspective this morning, you should know that the Stanford Tree woke up with a raging hangover, empty tequila bottles strewn about his apartment and a pair of panties dangling from his upper branches. OK, that just means it's Monday. For real perspect...
Night Falls On Death Valley
The handsome young gentleman above is the biggest freshman to hit Baton Rouge since Glen Davis. His name is Mike VI and tonight the two year-old will make his debut as LSU's official mascot. He's big, he's photogenic, all the women want to pet him, and all the men want to be him. He's Louisiana's an...
For Lou Holtz's Next Trick, He Will Need A Volunteer From The Audience
1:02 — Lou's got a newspaper out. Says the editorial page is for "people who can't think." Considering that Lou's ripping up a USA Today, we'll give him that one uncontested....
Real Backups Frame The Starters

Leave Tony Joiner Alone!
Some are calling University of Florida safety Tony Joiner a thief this morning, but we call him hero. All he was trying to do was liberate his girlfriend's car from a towing yard — a noble gesture — and when someone witnessed the maneuver, Joiner even stopped and waited around for the cops. To me th...
