Tennessee Fan Is Latest To Take Advantage Of Live TV Camera And Pantomime Blowjobs
After we had our fun with the jackass who made blowjob pantomimes behind home plate of a Cubs game, we figured the days of televised fake fellatio were over. Not so, as we learned at Neyland Stadium tonight, as one young Vols fan had enough of ESPN's camera and decided to take matters into his ow...
There's No Cheering In The Pressbox, So ESPN's Lee Corso Went Down To The Sidelines
Lee Corso's College GameDay schtick has for decades been his end-of-show prognostication of the day's feature game—usually involving his favored team's mascot. (Today he picked the hometown Gators to beat South Carolina, and even brought a baby alligator to the set.) But we mostly assumed his inte...

Dolphins Center Mike Pouncey's Newest Tattoo: Teardrop Andrew Jackson, Trollface Ulysses S. Grant, And Old West Bank Robber Ben Franklin
You have to admire the commitment to civic-mindedness, history, and patriotism, but that is one ugly tattoo. We do like giving Andrew Jackson the teardrop tattoo—a tattoo within a tattoo, probably symbolic of Old Hickory's involvement with the Indian Removal Act of 1830 that set in motion the Trail ...
Ryan Lochte Picked Auburn To Win LSU Vs. Texas A&M On College Gameday
Scintillating! Newly minted college football analyst Ryan Lochte made a cameo on College Gameday today, and provided insight into today's match-up between the Texas A&M Aggies and LSU Tigers as only he can: by mumbling an answer that was not among the two options he was given, and wearing a t-shir...
Three Years Later, Sad Clemson Fan Rides Again
A little over three years ago, the ESPN studio crew could barely keep it together on the air (and didn't even try off the air) while watching the above display of raw emotion. Clemson came back from a 24-point deficit against Georgia Tech only to lose by a field goal, and one Tigers fan broke the ...
<em>Men's Journal</em>'s Skip Bayless Article Contains The Saddest Paragraph In Recent Memory
Skip Bayless, as a major member of the sports discourse, is a lamentable thing. He gets an enormous amount of airtime to manufacture controversy, and his style of vacant carnival-barking is, if not actively lowering the intelligence of your average daytime ESPN-viewer, at least taking up time that c...
"Look At Me, Mr. Fucking Howdy Doody!": Wyoming Head Coach Goes On Hilarious Rant After Loss To Air Force
Last Saturday, Wyoming lost a conference game to Air Force by a score of 28-27. It was a tough loss for the Cowboys, as they squandered a 10-point halftime lead. After the game, Wyoming's head coach, Dave Christensen, was very angry, and he unleashed an expletive-filled rant on his counterpart, T...
Hey, Here's An Allegation That Lance Armstrong Bribed Opponents To Let Him Win Races
This is a pretty damning allegation against Armstrong, one that got lost earlier this week in all the hoopla over a damning USADA report and his being declared sponsora non grata. You might even be tempted to wonder if it's just piling on, at a time when it's cool to bash Armstrong. But the actual c...
Tim Tebow Has Officially Trademarked Tebowing
Word trickles out of Jets practice that Tim Tebow is now, finally, the legal owner of the term "Tebowing." This doesn't mean you or I can't continue to talk about or write about Tebow. It just means we can't profit off of it. (What does this mean for ESPN, where Tebow=Profit?)...

Rick Reilly Got Fooled By A Satirical Blog Post (Again)
Remember when Rick Reilly wrote a column that included a line about LeBron James punching Juwan Howard’s cane, and it turned out that he got that anecdote from a satirical post on The Basketball Jones?

Here's How A Year-Old Aerial Shot Of St. Louis Ended Up On Last Night's Fox Broadcast
When we noted earlier today Fox's apparent use of old video during last night's NLCS broadcast from St. Louis, we asked how such a thing might happen—and if it was simply a mistake or a revelation that much of what we assume is a live broadcast is, indeed, not live at all....
Paul Ryan Mistook Colt McCoy For Brandon Weeden At Browns Practice Today

How To Sleep Train A Selfish Baby
When you have a new child, you have only one priority in life, one that takes precedence over procuring food, finding a job, or anything else: getting the child to sleep through the night.
