My, That Looks Like A Delicious Sandwich ...
Look, I'm not one to ask questions. When a picture of Erin Andrews eating a sandwich shows up in my e-mail inbox, I post it. It's as simple as that, really. Now ... who's hungry?...
To Watch Tonight
What to watch as the lesbian Brady Bunch rumors are shot down ... • MLB: Cubs at Marlins. Division title, come to Papa. [WCIU] • MLB: Padres at Giants. What else could possibly go wrong? [Channel 4 Padres] • Movie: Rocky II. Yo Adrian! I did it! [Versus]...
Pat White Has A Special Friend
West Virginia quarterback Pat White would seem like the guy who has everything. NFL-ready talent — we guess — a spot on one of college football's best team and, you know, he's kind of handsome, if you're into that sort of thing. But the guy just wants more....
Today's A Perfect Day To Not Do Any Work
So, if you've been too caught up in not watching David Beckham and the MLS, you might have missed it, but we're in the midst of a rather unprecedented pennant chase in Major League Baseball. That is to say: Every single division race, not to mention the wild-card run, is close; the biggest gap betwe...
The Mariners Like 'Em Big
Ever wanted a six-foot doll of Raul Ibanez? Well, boy howdy, this could be your lucky day. As long as you have four figures to spend....
No One's More Fun Than OJ Simpson
If you haven't seen this highlight reel of O.J. Simpson being interviewed by some Website we've never heard of, it's worth checking out. We don't quite understand the mindset of pranking O.J., though; we mean, the guy killed two people. You think you can really embarrass him?...
Great Sportswriters, Reading Aloud
We know they have the Varsity Letters Sports Reading Series every month in New York City, so sometimes they struggle to get people worthwhile. (Like this idiot.) But their crew tomorrow is particularly excellent....
Erin Andrews, Atlanta Tapas Lover
We don't mean to harp on the sideline reporter thing today, but we feel obliged to point out: If you're around the Atlanta area, and want to know where all the cool kids are hanging out, Erin Andrews has your back....
Felix Hernandez Informed By Internet That He Has Other Pitches Besides Fastball
All right, I initially highlighted the mischievousness of sports blogs to preface you all with some of the goodness sportsbloggery can achieve in life. The blog U.S.S. Mariner wrote an open letter to Seattle Mariners pitching coach Rafael Chavez, wherein he mentions how Felix Hernandez throws way to...
It's Good To Have A Golf Champion Actually Look Like A Golfer
Like most casual golf fans in America, we spent most of the day yesterday away from the television but curious if Tiger Woods was going to win the U.S. Open. A victory by anyone else would elicit a shrug; a victory by Tiger would somehow matter more, as if we're enough of an expert in golf to unders...
A Fitting Tribute To Larry O'Brien, If Larry O'Brien Was A Drunk
It lacks the Stanley Cup's charming ability to serve as a giant alcohol dispenser, but the NBA's Larry O'Brien trophy can be surrounded with what appear to be empty beer cans. The picture was sent in by a reader who's friend works in Cleveland across from the Ritz, and snapped this photograph the mo...
NBA Finals Blogdome: Spurs Win The Title
Views of the Spurs' title from around the Internets ......
Your Gripping NBA Champions
It is probably not a good sign that the morning after we crown a new NBA champion — and we do congratulate the Spurs, sure — more people are emailing us about a guy who hasn't been in the NBA for 11 years than they are about the game. (To be fair, the story did involve masturbation.) When's the draf...
Our Long National Nightmare Could End Tonight
We're not sure what the official name is for what we'll be doing to the Spurs when if they win the NBA Championship tonight. Will we coronate them? Dub them a dynasty? Crown their asses?...
Trying To Salvage What's Left Of The NBA Season
As we sift through the carnage of a mostly D.O.A. NBA Finals, we wonder: Can anything save it at this point? The popular theory is that Cavs coach Mike Brown is destroying any slim hope his team has — maybe he should play Eric Snow more — and, in addition, he's making the games excruciating to watch...
