This Is The Porn Movie Filmed On-Field At The L.A. Coliseum [SFW]
The Los Angeles Times reported this morning on a porn film released 10 years ago that was filmed at the L.A. Coliseum on an off-week between USC football games. The Times asks how such a stunt could be executed (in the context of a corruption scandal involving the stadium's managers), but as yet ...
Vin Scully Can Even Make Bobbleheads Seem Cool Again
Major League Baseball's enduring fascination with bobbleheads is, by and large, played out by now, but we'll grant an exception for this August 30, when the Dodgers hold their first-ever Vin Scully Bobblehead Night and give away this reasonable likeness of the Hall of Fame announcer, now in his 63rd...
Today In Getting To Know The Kings: Reebok Offers An "Alex Kopitar" Shirt
This hockey thing's new; we get it. But despite the team's best efforts, we're still not all on the same page. Take this Reebok "Stanley Cup Finals Alex Kopitar" t-shirt, now available in the NHL.com shop. (He's also "Alex" at other outlets offering the same shirt, so this is a Reebok problem, not a...
Dustin Brown Should Either Be Suspended For Zero Games Or For All The Games
Late in the first overtime, LA's Dustin Brown took down Phoenix's Michal Roszival at the blue line. Roszival was hurt; the Coyotes were angry; there was no penalty called. Twelve seconds later, Dustin Penner scored. Game, series, conference....
The L.A. Kings Created A Handy Infographic So The City's Media Will Know Who They Are
We've already tipped our caps to the social-media prowess of the Los Angeles Kings and their outstanding Twitter feed, @LAKings. And here they go again, staying ahead of the narrative as only they can....
TNT's Slow Zoom On Mitch Kupchak's Face In The Final Minutes Of The Lakers' Season Was Sadistic
Only true Lakers believers (or the truly blind) couldn't see the Lakers' season was nearing an end long before the horn sounded on last night's 106-90 series-seizing Thunder victory. Yet it seems the moment of truth for Lakers GM Mitch Kupchak came at a time that TNT producers jumped upon for max...

Guy In Underwear Gets Head-Stomped By Three Men, Apparently Near Petco Park [UPDATED]
The fan fight that currently has the attention of the media in Los Angeles involves four men who were arrested yesterday for beating a guy in the parking lot at Dodger Stadium. But what about the one we've posted above, which goes from ridiculously funny to downright disturbing right around the 1-...
The Los Angeles Media Market Continues To Not Know The L.A. Kings Play Hockey
There are two major sports teams in California named the Kings. One of them is up north in Sacramento, and they play professional basketball (poorly, as of late). The other is in Los Angeles, and has a very good shot at winning the Stanley Cup. Despite the two franchises' differences in performan...
"The Kings Have The Ball": More Hockey Coverage From Los Angeles
You do have to feel for FOX 11's newslady. Hockey highlights are tough if you've never watched a hockey game. Kopitar and Doughty aren't easy names to pronounce. But in the wake of another LA station's Kings ignorance, it's entirely possible that a team is going to win a Stanley Cup without anyone...
The Los Angeles Kings Are A Hotter Ticket Than The Clippers
All three of the professional teams that call LA's Staples Center home are in the playoffs, and all three are scheduled to play host to opponents this weekend—a total of six games in four days, in fact, beginning with last night:...
The Spunky Genius Of Twitter's @LAKings, The Second-Biggest Surprise Of The Playoffs
The Los Angeles Kings are 7-1 since we asked if anyone could stop them. They're steamrolling the Coyotes like they steamrolled the Blues and Canucks, and they're a good bet to steamroll whichever team wins the Port Authority Bus Terminal Series. They have unquestionably been the best thing about the...
Yes, Chicago's ABC Affiliate Identified Metta World Peace As "Lakers Idiot"
Last night the internets buzzed about the veracity of a photo showing the lower third graphic from a TV newscast identifying Lakers ne'er-do-well Metta World Peace as "Lakers Idiot." Our pals over at Busted Coverage asked this morning if it was real, and as the video above will show you, it is in...
The Angels Are Getting Desperate
Seven games out of first. No one's hitting. (Hitting coach Mickey Hatcher got the ax today.) Nothing seems to be working. So Fox Sports West, despite a win yesterday, made a plea via on-screen graphic. Somebody do something. Anything. Call up Minor League Guy. [via @nocoastoffense]...
The Los Angeles Galaxy Was Extremely Happy To Visit The White House
There's a lot going in this photo, taken today during the LA Galaxy's obligatory champion's visit to the White House. (Well, not everyone finds it necessary.) As usual, Obama looks happier than anyone else, although a beaming Bruce Arena seems up to the challenge....
Clumsy Dodgers Fan Drops Foul Ball, Falls Onto Field, Knocks Over Beer
This poor joker just couldn't do anything right in his pursuit of a ball that was pretty much hit right at him. And to top it off, he was wearing a glove. Watching this, I half-expected to see O.J. Simpson stumble into a bear trap, trip into a wedding cake, and fall off a boat....
Los Angeles's Favorite Hockey Team Is A Basketball Team
I don't know if the Kings are the best team in hockey, but I know they're the hottest, and I know they have a better chance of winning a championship than the Lakers or Clippers do, and I know that's not the Kings' logo, NBC Los Angeles....
Torii Hunter Goes On Restricted List For Personal Reasons After Son Charged With Sexual Assault
Tim Mead, the Angels' VP of communications, just tweeted that Torii Hunter has been placed on the restricted list for personal reasons. The Angels have no further comment, but earlier today police announced that five students at Prosper (Texas) High School have been arrested and charged with sexual ...
Orel Hershiser Changes His Mind About Auctioning Baseball From Scoreless Innings Streak
In an 18-year MLB career that included a Cy Young Award, a World Series MVP, and an LCS MVP in both leagues, Orel Hershiser accumulated a lot of stuff. But it's more than that: On his blog over at MLB.com, Keith Olbermann describes Hershiser as an avid sports memorabilia collector, and one with whom...
Jered Weaver Sings Along To "Hit The Road Jack" After Being Pulled From Game
Jered Weaver is having an excellent season. Only two starts removed from his no-hitter, he had allowed no earned runs in four of his first seven starts this spring. But then came Sunday night and the Texas Rangers and their heavy machinery. Weaver managed to strike out Josh Hamilton twice, but he al...
If The Lakers Lose Tonight Mike Brown Will Be Out Of A Job, Says Lakers Vice President (Magic Johnson)
Last night, Magic Johnson had some relatively strong (hypothetical) words for the Lakers coach and key big men....
