Jason Giambi Will Interview For The Rockies' Vacant Manager Position
Yes, Jason Giambi—the man who has no managerial experience at any level, posed for this Sports Illustrated cover, lives in Las Vegas by choice, and has spent the last four seasons looking like a sad dad on the Rockies' bench—is a managerial candidate. The Rockies are on the hunt for a new manager a...
"George In Nashua" Had A Job Interview At A Radio Station, Until He Called In To Talk Sports
ESPN Radio in New Hampshire is in the process of filling some sales positions at the station and has interviews set up throughout the week. One of those interviews was going to be with a man known to us only as "George in Nashua." During today's midday show with Christian and King on WGAM—The Game—G...
Seahawks DB Richard Sherman Intercepts Tom Brady, Snickers At Him With "U Mad Bro?" Picture On Twitter After The Game
Predictably, the actual tweets have since been deleted, but Seahawks cornerback Richard Sherman tweeted the picture above after the Seahawks 24-23 comeback win over the Patriots Sunday evening. Sherman, it seems, is a bit of a chatter and was in Brady's ear all day, especially so after intercepting...
The Yankees' Parking Company Is In Default Because, As It Turns Out, People Take The Subway To Yankees' Games
Yesterday we brought you a screenshot of the half-empty stands inside of Yankee Stadium a good half hour after the first pitch of Game 5 of the Yankee-Orioles series. New York's transportation system is uniquely—how should we put it—clusterfuck-y around rush hour, and eventually the stadium did fill...
Student Reporters: Did A College Coach Ever Treat You Like Shit? Let Us Know.
We told you the other day about Charlie Weis, who flipped his shit over the coverage of his mighty Kansas Jayhawks in KU's student newspaper. A flack followed up with some passive-aggressive crypto-bullying of a student reporter. By all indications, going back to his time at Notre Dame, this is how ...
Joba Chamberlain Left Tonight's Game After Getting Nailed By A Flying Bat Shard
Well, here's another odd chapter in the continuing career of Yankees pitcher Joba Chamberlain. Matt Wieters led off the top of the 12th with a soft single to left field, but a shard from his broken bat struck Chamberlain, who was still on the mound, and the Yankees reliever had to leave the game in ...

<em>Daily News</em> Report: Old-Ass Knicks Already Turning To Dust
It begins: The 2012-2013 Knicks are the oldest team in NBA history. They have a roster assembled by an addled tenth grader playing NBA Live 06. Bloggers across the land (ahem) lay in wait, knives sharpened, for the next symbolically awful report out of Knicks camp. Sadly, New York's newspapers are b...
Beer Of The Week: Blue Buck, In Time For Canadian Thanksgiving
Monday marks a holiday that in Canada is known as Thanksgiving. Any American will recognize the basic outlines of the day: Get together with friends and family and eat until you can compare stretchmarks and then succumb to naps. That doesn't mean it's the same holiday. Care to (U) guess (S) which (A...
Tom Brady Called The Head Of JP Morgan To Cheer Him Up After He Lost $6 Billion
Tom Brady's had losses in his day. Big ones. Like Super Bowl XLII. And Super Bowl XLVI. He never lost $6 billion, but he never had $6 billion to lose. Brady feels for losers. So when someone loses, and Tom Brady can help, he gets on the horn. Here's Vanity Fair, via Dealbreaker:...
"Team Obama Loses Early Wicket": The Romney-Obama Debate Was Like Every Sport Conceivable, According To Internet
The debate Wednesday could be compared to many things—a slow dance in which the partners are holding potato peelers to each other's throats, perhaps, or a restaurant in which you, the diner, get to watch a prep cook slow-spit on your burger before it's served—but of course everyone immediately turne...

Ichiro Doesn't Look Amused By Joba Chamberlain's Champagne Bath
Baseball celebrations make for great, out-of-context photos, and Joba Chamberlain pouring some (possibly frigid?) champagne down Ichiro's back after the Yankees clinched the American League East title last night is another excellent entry, especially when you consider that Ichiro's reaction is maybe...
Wes Welker And Deion Branch Were The "Bitches" Who Caught Tom Brady's Ire Last Sunday
Tom Brady was involved in one of the best GIFs of Week 4 when he was caught on camera saying "Fuck you, bitches" after running for a four-yard touchdown. But no one was able to discern who the "bitches" were. The Buffalo Bills? The fans in Ralph Wilson Stadium?...
Tennis Coach Mic'd Up For Live Broadcast Drops Deliberate F-Bomb
During a medical timeout in Nadia Petrova's Pan Pacific Open semifinal match against Samantha Stosur in Tokyo, the broadcast team threw it down to Petrova's coach, Ricardo Sanchez, who was wearing a microphone. Within seconds, Sanchez trolled everybody....
Justin Timberlake Opened The Ryder Cup By Reading A Shitty Poem About Golf
Justin Timberlake is serving as a Team USA "Ambassador" for this year's Ryder Cup at Medinah, a job title apparently created especially for the pop singer, actor and golf lover. Timberlake's appearance at today's opening ceremony was preceded by an introduction by Olympian Michael Phelps and accom...
