Mike Golic Suffering From Peter Pan Salmonella
So here's something bizarre and sad. You know that salmonella outbreak that has been tied to Peter Pan peanut butter? (And, to a lesser extend, Wal-Mart's "Great Value" house brand?) It hasn't caused any deaths yet, but almost 300 people in 39 states have fallen ill from it....
Coach K Is Now A Sexagenarian
So here's a little factoid for you: Today, February 13, Duke coach Mike Krzyzewski turns 60 years old. It's strange to think of him as that old; not only does he continue to be that irrepressible lovable impish scamp that we all adore, but he also has retained his thick, lustrous black hair. (Becaus...
It Appears That Mike Tyson Might Need Some Help Or Something
This is going to come as a shock to most of you — it certainly came as a shock to us — but former heavyweight champion and all-around beacon of stability Mike Tyson has never been in rehab before.

Agent Zero Revenge Tour Makes Imaginary Stop At Duke
We must report that our new favorite place to visit on the Internet is Gilbert Arenas' NBA.com blog (sorry, Fleshbot). This is because A). He actually writes it himself, unlike some people; B).

Steelers Going With Tomlin
The Pittsburgh Post Gazette is reporting that the Steelers have chosen Mike Tomlin to be their next head coach. The Steelers, according to the report, told Tomlin he was their choice, are negotiating with him right now, and have informed Russ Grimm of their decision, too....
Someone Is Going To Coach The Steelers
But it might not be Mike Tomlin. I linked to an article yesterday that reported that Tomlin had the job, then Tomlin denied that that was true... and then ESPN's Chris Mortensen said that it was true, and so did everyone else... and last night, the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review said the job belongs to R...
Mike Tomlin To Replace The Beloved Chin

The Rooney family was said to really admire Tomlin's defensive philosophies, his organizational skills, his refreshing ability not to bathe every single person he talk...
Mike Tyson: Portrait of a Rapist With a Corky Tongue
So, here're the mugshots from Iron Mike's arrest. Maybe the Special Olympics could use a boxer this year?...
Just Blow Into This Tube, Mr. Tyson
Mike Tyson, ex-pugilist extraordinairre, gnawer of earlobes, raper of women, can add a new dubious title to his evergrowing legend: possessor of cocaine. Yes, its seems early yesterday morning in Scottsdale, Arizona, America's favorite boxer who can no longer box was pulled over during a routine che...

The happy-go-lucky kids at We Are the Postmen put up this YouTube compilation of wonderful Mike Tyson interview snippets, just in time to inject you with some holiday cheer....
Free Mikey
The sea was angry that day, my friends. Like an old man returning soup at a deli....
Your Last Night Of MNF Brett Favre Backrubbing
Of all the tired Brett Favre storylines out there, our least favorite is the "He's playing against Mike Holmgren again!" theme. Yes, yes, they won a Super Bowl together; we're not sure this makes this all that necessarily compelling. Besides, that would require remembering a time when Brett Favre we...
Cancel Those Reservations, Ladies
First O.J.'s television interview is canceled, and now this. Remember how Mike Tyson was supposed to be all set to go to work for Heidi Fleiss at her new stud farm in Nevada? Turns out, evidently, that it's not true. And our Wednesday just got a little bit sadder. From ContactMusic.com:...
Start Saving Up For A Good Boning, Courtesy Of Mike Tyson
Here comes the perfect opportunity for the first-ever Ladies Only Deadspin Field Trip: Mike Tyson has reportedly agreed to be a male prostitute at Heidi Fless's new manwhorehouse in Nevada....
Unpretentious, With Just A Hint Of Laundry Hamper
Strawberries, cherries and and angel's kiss in spring ... this Ditka wine is really made from all these things ......
Rid Yourself Of Those "Cliffhangers"
It's time once again to ask the musical question: "Is that an extra large steel rescue pulley in your pocket, or are you just glad to see me?" According to the Chicago Tribune, altitude sickness can be avoided by taking a large dose of sildenafil (better know as Viagra) with you on those strenuous...
Yep, The Costume Works: We're Scared
If you were wondering what the Timberwolves' Mike James went as for Halloween this year — and we know you were — then now you know. He went as ... uh, this. Are we sure this isn't that Deelishis lady?...
Jeff Suppan Will Win For You, But He Will Not Let You Clone Him
So since we've been in the Midwest this week, we've appreciated the primal pleasure of a good political attack ad. Most of the races in New York aren't close, so everyone's all nicey-nice in their ads. Not so in Missouri, where there's not only a brutal Senate battle between Jim Talent and Claire Mc...
Corey Sanders Does Not Fight Any Better Than He Looks
I tried to look around for a more colorful recap of last night's Mike Tyson "fight," but honestly, there was enough in the Associated Press article to amuse me. Fans who were lucky enough to be in attendance for the first stop on "Mike Tyson's World Tour" were treated to twelve golden minutes of M...
Mike Tyson Would Like To Help You Carry Those Groceries To Your Car
Meet the new Mike Tyson. He's relaxed, he's sweet; he's whistling a happy tune. Frankly, we'd be less surprised if Kim Jong Ill suddenly began a tour of the U.S. singing old Bobby Sherman hits, but there you have it. There's a bluebird on his shoulder. Are we as a nation ready for this? Tyson appe...
