Roger Clemens, Still Talking, Or Something
So, the whole Roger Clemens "60 Minutes" interview has run now and, as you'd pretty much expect, it settled nothing. (Honestly, what happened to Mike Wallace? He used to be tough, right?) Clemens is denying, now he's suing Brian McNamee and everyone's all, "Christ, we're still talking about this?"...

The AFC Consolation Bracket
See, now this photo is just being mean. As if life after you've dropped a potential game-winning touchdown pass isn't hard enough; then you gotta have an opponent making fun of you about it. Tsk tsk....

Chargers vs. Titans, Second Half and Goodnight
It's been a while since I last checked in, but it's still the same football game. We're well into the third quarter of the final game of Wild Card Weekend '08 Bukkake and this game is dragging along with a score of 6-3. Tennessee is winning, Floats (pictured) i really crappy, and LaDainian is still...

The Debut of Money Mayweather
Floyd Mayweather Jr. recently announced his intention to throw his jewel encrusted New Era into the ring. Well we didn't have to wait long, because the day is afoot! Via Deuce of Davenport comes Money Mayweather's debut video. I'm not going to lie and tell you it's great, but it could be worse. It's...
Chargers vs. Titans, This Time It's For Real
You thought Philip Rivers was needlessly cocky before? Well it's playoff time baby, time to step up the douche! The real key is to see just how close Norv Turner can keep this thing. Nobody holds back a dynamic team in the playoffs like Norv Turner! Enjoy, and stay tuned after the jump......
Happy Birthday, Gilbert
Seeing as how he's injured (and might not be back) you may not know that today is Gilbert Arenas's birthday, and therefor, it is the first anniversary of the coolest birthday party I've ever attended. It's also worth noting that it was the only reason that thesetwo photo-ops were able to take place...
Bucs vs. Giants, The Second Half!
It was either this, or a picture of four Tampa cheerleaders. I like to think I made the right decision (thanks to Getty Images for the choice though). Since we last saw each other at halftime things have taken an interesting turn. The Bucs botched the opening kickoff giving the Giants an incredible...
Celtics Get Their Balls Back
Perhaps "untouchable" wasn't the right word to describe the DeTroit (I like it better that way) Pistons. Last night they had a chance to stick it to the Celtics again, and this time they had the pleasure of hosting the action. Yet it was not to be. The Celtics relied on Glen Davis'...uh...muscle to ...
Bucs vs. Giants! Yar, They Blow!
It's that time again, and I'm positively pumped for this one! New York and Tampa are taking the field and the air is alive with excitement! Who am I kidding? I'm watching Pitt play Nova while taping the Wizards and the Sonics. Don't worry though, I've brought in a reinforcement television and I'll ...
