The Heat Suddenly Look Rather Elderly
Never have we been more aware of how important, you know, not being old is in the sport of basketball than during this Heat-Bulls series. Or, as Blog A Bull puts it, "if the Bulls keep getting this open while an aged Heat defender flails away a few steps behind, the shots will likely keep falling." ...
Open Thread: Bulls vs. Heat
This one might be my favorite of all the first round playoff series. Each team thinks they're championship worthy, and there's no shortage of hatred to go around. There's some hatred in Toronto/New Jersey, too, but it comes from the fans ... I doubt there are too many Toronto Raptors who can muster ...

Ricky Williams Wants Back In Your Life
The ball is rolling for Ricky Williams to get himself back in the National Football League.

We'd Recommend Not Playing Blackjack With Joey Porter
When you put Joey Porter in the same room with a Cincinnati Bengal, in Las Vegas, no less, this is probably destined to happen...
NCAA Pants Party: Oregon Vs. Miami Of Ohio
Oregon Ducks (26-7) vs. Miami Of Ohio Red Hawks (18-14) When: Friday, 5:05 p.m. Where: Spokane...
Miami RedHawks
1. You Give "Of" A Bad Name. In NCAA football we have Miami and Miami of Ohio. Perhaps in basketball, we should have Miami and Miami of Florida. Who's with me? (Charges out of Delta House) ... (Returns) What the f**k happened to the Deadspin I know? Where's the spirit? The Miami University RedHawks ...
The U Forgets What Makes It The U
You know, if they keep this kind of funny business up, the U is going to fall tragically behind in recruiting next year....
It's Clear That The World Needs Shaq Now More Than Ever
Of course you've seen him in hot pursuit of criminals in the Shaqmobile, and it's no secret that he snaps into action whenever President Bush activates his signal watch, helping to preserve the honor and dignity of this nation's highest office. And sure he can bust through walls. But now here's Shaq...
Mission Accomplished

OK, so here's what we want to happen today: Every half hour, we want someone to call Tim Hardaway to ask him about his comments about hating gay people. You can ask him the same question every time, every half hour. It'll be great, because he'll find a way to dig himself an even deeper hole each tim...
Tim Hardaway Wants Only Straight Men To See His Penis
So, by now, everyone has heard former NBA point guard Tim Hardaway's comments on the Dan LeBatard show yesterday, but just in case you're up for some caveman rhetoric — he'll have the roast duck with the mango salsa — here's the full audio of the interview....
Hey, The Heat Are Over At .500. Wake Riley.
Dan LeBatard, handsome as ever, brings up what everyone's thinking: Pat Riley's kind of a dick when it comes to abandoning his team when times are tough. Sure, he had some physical issues, but it seems obvious by now that it's not a coincidence that when the Heat are struggling, Riley's "recovering,...
