NBA TV Asks Couple "When's The Wedding?" Dude Responds: "Ohhh, Shit"
This is such a weird interview. In a segment featuring a couple selected as "Fans Of The Week" before the Heat-Pacers game last night, the NBA TV crew began razzing Jake Moran and questioning why his lady friend, Georgia, was with him. Georgia stood by Jake and so Greg Anthony cut right to the chas...

Amir Williams had 12 points, nine rebounds and six blocks in Ohio State's 86-48 pounding of the Bryant Bulldogs. After the game, Williams was asked to tell viewers what's been most responsible for his great play of late and he almost said "coach Matta, he's been on my dick." ...
Dwight Howard Ate All The Sugar
There was a very odd, long story on CBS Sports earlier this week that read uncomfortably like an infomercial for "Dr. Cate" Shanahan, an inventor of a pseudo-paleodiet who's been brought on by the Lakers as a nutritional consultant. I want to bring this passage about Dwight Howard to your attention....
Why The NFL Flexed Bears-Eagles Over Patriots-Ravens
At first glance, it was a surprise. The NFL wants America to see McCown-Foles over Brady-Flacco? But the league has a good reason for flexing Bears-Eagles to Sunday Night Football for Week 16: the freedom to choose the perfect Week 17 game. (Also, the fact that Bears-Eagles is going to be awesome.)...
Mike Shanahan Admits To Lying To The Media All The Time
Mike Shanahan was a little fired up at his press conference earlier today. That's understandable, considering the monumental shit storm that has descended on the Redskins' season.

This Is The Worst Offensive Possession Of The NBA Season
Did you watch the Nuggets-Wizards game last night? I sure hope you didn't, because that game suuuuuucked. It was a game that featured a final score of 75-74, a combined 44 turnovers, and ended with the Wizards blowing four straight chances at a game-winning shot. But perhaps no play captures the fu...
The Time Junior Barnes Hit Bill Cosby In The Side Of The Face With A Slushball
It's snowing here in New York. Nothing's sticking yet but it made me think of this famous Cosby routine....
Do The Bears Need Jay Cutler?
Let's not get silly. There's no quarterback controversy in Chicago. Yes, Josh McCown had played excellently as Jay Cutler deals with a series of injuries. But McCown is just a capable backup, filling in until Cutler's healthy. Cutler's the face of the Bears—he'll get his job back the second he's cle...
At Least The Dallas Defense Let Alshon Jeffery Happen
The Bears dismantled the Cowboys 45-28 and it was nowhere near that close. Tonight was the third time this year a team has gone an entire game without punting, and the second time it happened against Dallas. Josh McCown threw for 348 yards and four touchdowns against this Dallas defense. With six se...

Rob Gronkowski Also Has A Concussion, Is The NFL's Latest Nightmare
When Browns safety T.J. Ward sent his shoulder crashing into Rob Gronkowski's outstretched right leg, everyone had the same two thoughts: "Holy shit, Gronk just tore his ACL!" and "Ward only went low because he didn't want to concuss Gronk and get fined for doing so." Well, try telling that second ...
