Ozzie Guillen Thinks ESPN's Buster Olney Is "Full Of Shit"
Today ESPN's Buster Olney published this (Insider-only) post questioning whether the Marlins' not meeting attendance projections could be blamed on Ozzie Guillen (and not, say, the team's utterly disappointing performance this year). Olney even opened the door for Guillen to be fired after the seas...

Cody Ross Went Completely Apoplectic Over A Called Third Strike
I really don't think there's any universe where a baseball player would actually swing and strike an umpire upside the head with a baseball bat. (Delmon Young, by far, has come the closest.) However, when you're reacting in anger to a called third strike and you're still holding a bat in your hands,...
T.J. Simers Trolled The Dodgers, And Matt Treanor Wanted To Fight Him
At the heart of it, a good percentage of sports columns are only about trolling. "What's wrong with Wes Welker?" "Jay Cutler just can't win." These things are written to play the contrarian, and to get a rise, and they tend to work because fans either enjoy being goaded, or can't let the effort pass...
Here Are The 21 Worst Replacement Referee Mistakes From Sunday
Despite management-friendly scribes swearing to the contrary, the NFL's replacement officials made some enormous errors yesterday—some of which affected the outcome of games and at least one that directly led to a starting quarterback being knocked out of the game. That's not to mention losing trac...
Look At This Asshole Yelling In Some Guy's Face Because He Wouldn't Sit Down At A Soccer Game
Apparently at Seattle Sounders games some people stand up the entire time as a show of support. That's cool, I guess. I'd prefer to sit in the seat for which I've paid, but to each his own. Some find it annoying because of the whole "better door than window" thing. I am also capable of understandi...

Camera Spontaneously Disintegrates While Cameraman Films Interview
Peek-a-boo is not just a fun game for babies. It's also good fun for adults watching some boring rugby interview or whatever when a cameraman disappears as quickly as he pops up on screen when his camera falls apart and he drops it all over the place....
<em>Sports Illustrated</em> Senior Writer Calls ESPN A "Cesspool," Unethical
Well, surprise, surprise. ESPN finds itself in yet-another dust-up with its journalistic practices....
Does Jay Bilas Hate Special Needs Kids?
Lazy journalist Jay Bilas probably doesn't know anyone who has a special needs child, and I'm guessing all the people who RTed him with a LOL or LMAO or MUST BE BIG 10 COUNTRY! or any other number of intelligent add-ons don't know anyone with a special needs child as well. If they did, they'd unders...
Bobby Valentine Goes Apeshit On A Boston Sports Radio Host
Bobby Valentine's tenure as Red Sox manager is, in all likelihood, coming to an end, which is sad, because whatever faults you can find with the favorite son of Stamford, Conn., at least he's genuine. Yeah, he might be a genuine nutcase, but such candor and expression should be considered refreshi...
Story About LeBron Promising Liverpool A Vegas Party Was Too Fake For Even The British Tabloids To Stand Behind
Liverpool is...not having the best of starts. The high-priced, high-expectation club has gotten out of the gate at 0-2-1, which is only the second-most disastrous performance of the year for a Fenway Sports Group team. But another Reds owner was reportedly not so sanguine about the results. LeBron J...

What The Hell Does CSN Baseball Analyst Shooty Babitt Think "Gay" Means?
Shooty Babitt was a baseball player. He scouted. He's worked on both coasts, for teams and in the media. And yet, when his co-anchor gives him a lead-in to praise Oakland A's manager Bob Melvin for downplaying his team's recent success, Babitt says Melvin is "feeling a little too gay, talking about,...
Luke Donald Is Sorry For Calling A Golf Course Architect A "Cock" On Twitter
On Saturday, Luke Donald, frustrated with a bogey on the 18 at TPC Boston, sent out two tweets without looking very closely at which box he was typing in: his cell phone number, and another, in which he called the guy who designed the course "a cock."...
Brent Musburger Said Piss, And Kirk Herbstreit Couldn't Keep His Shit Together
On Saturday night, we all speculated about what Brent Musburger could have said that was bad enough that ABC felt the need to cut off the audio while he and Kirk Herbstreit pulled themselves together. Today, we have the unedited version: piss. He said "piss," instead of "pick." ...
