Two Pair Not A Winning Hand In Kansas
Oh yes we've got trouble! Right here in Salina Kansas! With a capital T and that rhymes with B and that stands for boobs!

Please Don't Call The New Sonics Owners Bad Names
When you are a stranger who comes into a new town, walks up to the mayor, slaps him in the mouth, hoist his wife over your shoulder and stroll out of town (kicking a couple dogs on the way out), it's safe to say a few of the local words will have some choice words to say about you. It's part of the ...

Joe Torre, The Way It Was Always Gonna Be
Some might say the Joe Torre business in Tampa involving the Yankees yesterday is a sign of organizational chaos, but, frankly, this seems like the way it probably had to go down all along. (Some even saw it coming.)...

At Least Two More Days Of Life In The ALCS
We find it telling that, the day after Josh Beckett once again saved the proverbial Red Sox hide, everyone was still talking about Manny Ramirez. It's amusing to watch reaction to Manny; people treat him like he's a normal human being rather than, you know, an alien. The trick is not to be mad that...

About Last Night
What you missed while fumigating your nuts ... • MLB: Despite Manny calling time out when his team didn't have any left, Red Sox stay alive in ALCS. • College football: You've got some red on you ...

For some reason, we think this might the most beautifully written game recap we've ever read. "Playing one last time as Southwest Conference rivals, the Carthage Tigers and the Neosho Wildcats battled in a contest that will not merely be talked about, but will forever be etched in the memories of th...

ESPN Anchors Feel The Burn
You know, we always imagined that Richard Simmons just hung out in Bristol all the time, sort of an unofficial mascot. We imagine him fetching Nachos for Van Pelt and really getting on Trey Wingo's nerves....

Torre Says Thanks, But No Thanks, To The Yankees
There's something perfect, really, about how this whole Joe Torre business went down. Now that he has rejected a one-year deal with the Yankees, he gets to walk away from the madness with his dignity intact and his head high. And the Yankees get to move on themselves. All this talk about firing Tor...

The NFL Loves Those International Roiders
The NFL has long gotten a free pass on the whole steroid issue. Rafael Palmeiro is a cancer on his sport, but Shawne Merriman gets a really cool Michael Mann Nike ad. And now Roger Goodell is just throwing it in your face....
