Baylor Assistant Damion McKinney Wore A Tablecloth As A Necktie To The National Championship
I believe that's Baylor women's assistant coach Damion McKinney as spotted before last night's 80-61 victory that capped off a 40-0 season for the lady Bears. I have no idea what he is wearing as a necktie. Did he eat at Red Lobster and forget to remove his bib? Was he arguing before the United Sta...

Commence The Kentucky Fans Shouting Profanities On Live Television
Here's a shot from a few minutes ago on WKYT in Lexington of an ill-advised live shot from the middle of a gathering of Kentucky fans at the corner of Woodland and Euclid, near the UK campus. The horrified reactions of the "hosts" broadcasting from what appears to be an RV in New Orleans makes th...

Congratulations to NCAA Champions Kentucky, Whose Celebration Scared The Shit Out Of Some Radio Guy
Kentucky is your NCAA Division I men's basketball national champion, beating Kansas 67-59. They may or may not blow up Lexington tonight, but it's the explosion of confetti inside the Superdome that has this unidentified radio man concerned. [CBS]...

The Fray's Pre-NCAA Title Game National Anthem Performance Was ... Different
While nowhere near as bad as any that made our suggestions for the Worst National Anthem Ever (indeed, if you caught Monica's tone-deaf rendition Saturday, you know it wasn't even the worst of the Final Four) The Fray's attempt at a hipster version of Marvin Gaye's "Star-Spangled Banner" fell awfu...

Bruce Pearl’s First Con, And The World That Created A Monster (Deadspin Classic)
Over the weekend, one long-running college basketball feud came to a quiet and friendly conclusion: Jimmy Collins, a former Illinois assistant, finally received an apology from Bruce Pearl, the disgraced former Tennessee coach. As an Iowa assistant in 1989, Pearl had accused Collins of offering mone...

John Calipari, The First Honest Pimp
John Calipari is a smarmy greaseball with a habit of making enemies and racking up NCAA violations, and sometimes I think he's the only man who really understands college basketball. ...

Here Is The Much-Ballyhooed Ubaldo Jimenez Plunking Of Troy Tulowitzki
Earlier this afternoon, tensions ran high between the Cleveland Indians and the Colorado Rockies when Ubaldo Jimenez drilled his former teammate, Troy Tulowitzki. Tulo immediately dropped his bat and made toward the mound and Jimenez decided to meet him halfway. Benches cleared and not much else h...

Ohio State Administrator Tells Students To Support Team Responsibly During Final Four One Day After Elimination By Kansas
What is probably nothing more than a hiccup with an automated email has resulted in a tidy little bit of Ohio State schadenfreude. The email was forward along by reader Phillip and is provided in full below, along with an image on school letterhead of sorts. The message was sent out to students at ...

Did you guys hear? Lexington is "burning" and the students are "rioting" after Kentucky dispatched with Louisville in the first game of the Final Four. Just look at the crazy scene above.

Louisville Stopped The Bleeding With This Sexy Steal, Dish, & Dunk
It's halftime in New Orleans, and Kentucky leads Louisville 35-28. The Wildcats would be spanking the turnover-prone Cardinals even worse if it wasn't for this late Russ Smith steal, Chris Smith behind-the-back feed, and Gorgui Dieng dunk (which drew a foul from UK's Darius Miller). UL's got a wa...
