Vick Just Can't Wait To Get Himself To Prison
We didn't get into this yesterday, but all told, we find it pretty amazing that Mr. Mexico has decided to check into jail three weeks early. We understand that it's a plan to look contrite in front of the judge ... but it's still taking quite a risk, wethinks....
Sure, He's, Uh, Doing Some Bobcats Scouting
We were busy at this show tonight, so we're late on the uptake, but we will say this: We don't think we'll ever get used to seeing Michael Jordan wearing Illini colors. We wonder if Tar Heels fans will ever get used to it either....
Bill Belichick Is A Surly Dick
Michael Showalter is one of the minds behind The State and Stella and the writer and star of the films Wet Hot American Summer and The Baxter. We're a fan. He also, apparently, is a sports fan. To promote his new album Sandwiches And Cats, he's doing a pseudo tour of the various lousy blogs like our...
Michael Jordan Is Paying A Wee Bit In His Divorce Settlement
Michael Jordan and Juanita Jordan got engaged on New Years Eve, 1987. Jordan was in his third year in the NBA at the time, and had just filmed a Nike commercial with Spike Lee. They were married almost two years later — in Las Vegas, of course — and they signed a "post-nuptial agreement," whatever t...
Sorry: You Just Can't Do This
A tip for all you kids out there still undecided about your Halloween costume: Just because Michael Vick is going to jail doesn't mean you can dress up in blackface....
Michael Wilbon Is On The Run From The Law
A reader with a lot of time on his hands — and, really, don't we all? — was surfing around the Maryland Judiciary Case Web site and found a certain "Pardon The Interruption" host who has yet to be brought to justice....
Michael Vick's Mansion Comes Furnished
Yesterday, when I heard that Michael Vick's house in Atlanta was for sale, I first thought, "Yeah, yeah, big deal. I'm sick of this guy." But then a reader sent in the listing of the house, including a virtual tour and photo gallery....
At This Point, Vick Probably Owes YOU Money
You know, it's just not a Wednesday afternoon if someone isn't trying to get more money out of Michael Vick. Next up? His restaurant!...
Newport News Teenagers Must Now Find A New Role Model
Virginia Tech has been consistent about defending their former star quarterback Ron Mexico since that whole dogfighting business, but his high school, well, they're not so proud anymore....
Man, Tough Break For That Vick Guy
Yes, yes, we know that Ron Mexico tortured and electrocuted puppies, we know that he's probably not the best person and we know he's gonna spend some serious time in prison. He pretty much deserves whatever's coming to him. But ... we dunno .... is it really fair that the Falcons can now recoup $19....
Ookie Is No Dummy
Ladies and gentlepeople, we have finally figured out what we will do if we are ever convicted of a felony, other than "try to grow a mustache and move to Turks and Caicos." We're gonna make sure we smoke as much weed as possible, and then get caught....
BREAKING: Ron Mexico Smokes Pot!
So this is gonna blow your mind, folks: A couple of weeks ago, when matters might have been somewhat stressful for Michael Vick, he ... tested positive for marijuana. You think you know a guy....
ESPN's Disastrous "Town Hall Meeting"
We didn't watch ESPN's timely Michael Vick Town Hall Meeting last night, but from just about every account, it was a total disaster. The audience was so partisan for Vick — which, to be fair, is the opposite of what you typically see — that anyone who so much as pointed out that Vick confessed to el...
PIck Through The Remnants Of Michael Strahan's Life
We have stayed up many late nights, hoping, praying, that somehow, Giants defensive lineman Tooth McTootherson and his wife /ex-wife / wife Jean Strahan could figure out a way to solve their marriage. It's like you just can't have faith in the institution anymore! As if accusations of gay sex with p...
Notes On A Scandal
Time to officially remove the mallet from its handsome leather case, striking the silver gong and calling bullshit on this ... but it could be true, I guess. Some dude is claiming that he has Michael Vick's crib notes from his recent apology, and is selling them on eBay. Bidding is up to $2,000, so ...
