Craig Gower Also Has Time For Rugby
The Australian sporting landscape seems to have a different breed of derelicts than our own. When our athletes misbehave, someone ends up getting shot in a Vegas strip club. When Australian athletes misbehave, they walk naked around a resort and proposition the daughter of a sporting legend....
They Must Have An Interesting Logo
This is extremely juvenile, even for me... but when Butt Daredevils invade the sports world, I feel like you have a right to know. What you see above is a brief CBA game recap from the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, with either an unfortunate typo (which has since been fixed), or a copy editor who's lashi...
Unbagged Heads Prevail
Will told you earlier in the week about the struggles of the East Carolina basketball team, and their fans' plan to show up at the final home game of the year with bags on their heads. As far as I can tell, last night against UTEP, there were no bags (I can find no mention of them)... and the ECU Pi...
The First Rule Of The Super Bowl Is, You Do Not Talk About The Super Bowl... Or The Big Game
The NFL, of course, has the term "Super Bowl" trademarked, so you can't use those particular words to promote any kind of a party or gathering for the event. Not only is it illegal, but if you close your eyes and say "Super Bowl" three times, Ed Hochuli will appear in front of you and rip your godda...
Smoot Isn't The Only One Who Misbehaves On Boats
Gerald Swindle is known as the G-Man, and he likes rock 'n roll music (I'm guessing from his website) and catchin' fish. That's him crying in the picture. He's crying because he's a huge dick....
College Hoops Compendium: Noah Disappoints
• LSU 66, (3) Florida 56. Joakim Noah: 4 points, 3 rebounds, 0 swipes at cheerleaders, 0 sissy arguments with opposing coaches about who gets to hold the basketball. We expect a higher level of production all around, Joakim. See that it doesn't happen again. Florida was never really close past three...

Nash collapsed after a charity basketball game he was hosting, and was pronounced dead at 6:41 p.m. No details or cause of death are available as of the time of this post....
What Would It Take To Get You To Blog About The Devil Rays For A Year?
Fans have auctioned their team allegiances on eBay before, but to my knowledge, no one has ever auctioned their services as a blogger for a particular team. But one blogger (and a good one, at that) would like to be the first... for the right price, he'll spend the entire baseball season blogging ab...

I Agree Completely, He Really Shouldn't Have Made It Rain
I hope that one more post doesn't overdo it on the Pacman Jones story, but I did particularly enjoy this report from WSMV in Nashville. One line in particular really does tell you all you need to know. "He shouldn't have made it rain, then." Yes....

Shaq On Taint
After the Heat lost to Dallas on Thursday, a reporter engaged Shaq in conversation about Dirk Nowitzki's MVP candidacy. Shaq, sensing the opportunity to get some things off his chest, went off about how the award selection process and said that Steve Nash's last two MVP awards were "tainted."...
At Least He Doesn't Have AIDS
Lennox Lewis wants to make a comeback to the boxing ring. Who's he going to fight? Someone else who's coming out of retirement, of course, because that's all that's really left in boxing. An old-timers day in boxing would be rather redundant....
Today In The Premiership...
• Fulham 1-2 Manchester United. They exchanged first half goals, Ryan Giggs in 29th minute for United, and Brian McBride in the 17th for Fulham (America, fuck yeah), and played the next 58 minutes at a 1-1 tie. But in the 88th minute, Cristiano Ronaldo felt very pretty and scored her 15th goal of th...
Vladimir Radmanovic: Good At Telling The Truth, Lousy At Snowboarding
This is so cute. Lakers forward Vladimir Radmanovic going to miss about eight weeks of action because of a separated shoulder, an injury he attributed to slipping on some ice. That wasn't the truth, though. And the nagging pangs of guilt brought on by his dishonesty finally got to be too much for hi...
It's Too Bad Ricky Williams Wasn't Around For This
It seems like the sort of thing Ricky would have loved. These are Texas football fans and they are, according to the tipster, celebrating a win over Oklahoma....
About Last Night...
• College Basketball: St. Peter's 54, Iona 52. ESPNU doesn't have nearly enough games between teams that have records of 5-23 and 2-26. • NBA: Nets 109, Kings 96. 22 points, 13 board, and 10 assists isn't bad for a guy with a cracked rib. Of course, Jason Kidd's been in worse pain this year. • WGC A...
