Carson Palmer Goes Long
Nobody in their right mind actually cares about the outcome of the Bengals/Cardinals contest (Will and Bengal fans are clearly insane), but the fantasy playoffs are right around the corner! Carson Palmer is doing his best to spread the points around. He's thrown touchdown passes to TJ Housh and Ariz...
Where's Your Purple Jesus Now?
Let's all give it up to Texas Tech for effectively eliminating Oklahoma from National Championship contention.

Fight! Fight! Fight!
• Catching up on Cotto vs. Mosley. Wow, that fight was actually better than I was led to believe. The first six rounds might have not produced knockdowns or blood but they were some of the most intensely competitive rounds I've seen in quite some time . It's not often that you get to see two fantast...
Siena Chops Down the Stanford Cardinal
You probably know Siena best as one of the sacrificial lambs of March Madness, yet on Saturday they knocked off a solid Stanford squad. The win is quite possibly the biggest for the Saints since their huge NCAA Tournament upset of the same Cardinal program almost 19 years ago. Siena had four players...
Rockets Can't Handle Suns (Or Anyone Else) Without T-Mac

Hugh II: The Nedessey Continues... Part 3
I don't know if this qualifies for today's Hugh, but during last night's Nevada-Hawaii game, I couldn't control my laughter everytime the color guy said "WAC Offensive Player of the Week." -efelde84 (screen grab via FanIQ)...
Cherundolo's Goal Is the Difference In Johannesburg
The US Men's National Team earned a victory over South Africa this morning (at least it was this morning here, I think it was tomorrow there). A 27th minute goal scored off of a Steve Cherundolo run was all the US needed to hold off an attacking opponent. The 28 year-old defender was probably the la...

The game still sucks, but at least we've got something to look at while sit idly by waiting for some good games to be beamed onto our televisions. Without further ado, here's the Hugh...

This Is Why People Hate High School
Everybody knows that the only thing on earth better than cheerleaders are cheerleaders who flash some ass. Despite this universal understanding the Modesto City Gestapo School Board are allowing cheerleaders to be suspended for flashing their panties....
Wilkins Scores 41, Hawks Lose...Seems Familiar
Of course the Wilkins in question is Seattle's Damien, not his uncle Dominique formerly of the Atlanta Hawks. The veteran busted out for 41 points in the Super Sonics second consecutive win on the heels of an 8-game losing streak. Damien's outburst was eventually overshadowed, but you'd think he'd b...
Dennis Dixon Has Balls of Uranium
So it's official, Dennis Dixon tore his ACL ... two weeks ago. So that first quarter touchdown run on Thursday night just went from awesome to unbefuckinglievable....
