Ben Eager Was The Most Interesting Man In The World Last Night
Eager was all over the place for San Jose: pancaking Daniel Sedin against the glass, trash talking a prostrate Roberto Luongo (after pulling the Sharks to within 4), and, of course, getting flashed in the penalty box. Call it the EagerTrick: a goal, a scuffle, and boobs. (Video NSFW at the end)...

Why Yes, One Cleveland Writer Did Offer Up A Nazi Death-Camp Gas For Use As Dirk Nowitzki's Nickname
And it was Scott Raab (yesterday). Oh, don't get all "How dare you belittle millions of deaths for a joke the morally depraved community doesn't even so much as giggle at?" He apologized 13 hours later, while nobly driving page views to a story he wrote last year about retired U.S. autoworker/convi...
Bryan Stow Opens His Eyes, But Doctors Still Can't Predict His Chances Of Recovery
Bryan Stow, the 42-year-old paramedic and San Francisco Giants fan brutally beaten by a pair of moral-maggot Dodger fans who have yet to be caught but most certainly will sizzle in Hell if such a place exists, has shown signs of improvement in recent days. Opening his eyes. No seizure activity in h...

Hue Jackson Needs To Sell You Some Raider Tickets
There's this lockout thing, see? And with no football, the football teams that usually make money off of football, they can't make money.

More Misplaced Rhetoric From Pro Football Talk
De Smith says the NFL is the "first league in the history of sports that has ever sued to not play their game," which, like a lot of slogans, isn't entirely accurate (the NFL hasn't sued), even if it accurately conveys the sense that the NFL is taking great pains to get its lockout.
