This Once Contained Tayshaun Prince's Sweaty Jock
We were meandering around the NBA Auctions site earlier today — the life of a sports blogger is a lonely, isolated one — and the Detroit Pistons, in particular, are selling some awfully HAWT items, we have to say....

Harrick Always Could Recruit
We knew something like this would happen eventually. Jim Harrick, coach of the Bakersfield Jam of the NBA Development League, has a player who is making $2.06 million per season. Two mil, in the D League. Where the previous top salary was $24,000. Leave it to freakin' Harrick....

Jason Kidd Was Heckled And Beaten By His Otherwise Placid Wife
Yesterday, the North Jersey Something-Or-Other reported that Nets point guard Jason Kidd filed a domestic violence claim against his wife Joumana, saying that "It has been painful for Jason Kidd to watch the effect of his wife's behavior on their children." (That's his lawyer talking, not Kidd in th...

The Inside Story On Gilbert's Birthday Bash
The big party last week was, not surprisingly, the big Gilbert Arenas birthday party, complete with ice sculpture, Clinton Portis and, of all people, Kissing Suzy Kolber's own Unsilent Majority. (Obviously, Agent Zero should be a bit more judicious with the guest list.) Unsilent spoke with Free Dark...

Slava Medvedenko Is The Anti-Joe Kines
But he is no less entertaining, albeit in his own special Slava way. Medvedenko just signed with the Atlanta Hawks, so you're not likely to ever hear from him again. But the good news is that the Hawks gig puts him in closer physical proximity to Joe Kines, upping the chances of the two of them havi...

Michael Jordan Clears Himself of Excess Baggage
Well, now I get to post while drinking. Fun. For your information, I'm drinking Yuengling because I'm at my parent's house and it's a choice between this and lactose free milk....

Oh Miller Don't Wanna Dance With Somebody
And thankfully, I won't have to watch him feel the heat with somebody. With somebody who (somebody who) loves him. Sigh....

If Anything Is Going To Lure Karl Malone Out Of Retirement...
...it will almost certainly be the Memphis Grizzlies "Camo Night," being held tonight in conjunction with the Grizzlies vs. Bucks (and I bet that's not a coincidence) game tonight at the FedEx Forum. Fishermen and hunters of any animal (including little Mexican girls) are encouraged to attend the ...

Some Casting Director Has Their Work Cut Out For Them
Apparently, they'll make a movie about damn near anyone these days. The latest athlete to get the big screen treatment is spectacularly-bearded former Jazz center Mark Eaton. Eaton will be the subject of a film by Stacy Dymalski that will probably not be entitled, "What's Eatin' Mark Eaton?"...

Kobe Displays His Beef
I know I promised you no more kicker cock, but I don't recall saying anything about nude NBA 2-guards. Mr. Smith mentioned it briefly yesterday, but I thought it deserved its own post. It's not every day you see Kobe Bryant naked, although that might happen more often that it should....

NBA Roundup: The Rage Of Lawrence Frank
• Lawrence Frank: American ass-kicker. Nets head coach Lawrence Frank? That guy is the cause of every single one of the league's image problems. His mercurial temper and tendency towards violence got the better of him again last night after he complained about a no-call on Rasheed Wallace on a las...
