I Like It When You Call Me Big...Pansy?
Red Sox bohemoth David Ortiz appears to be enjoying his black catsuit and mothball ensemble a little too much. Ortiz is this year's cover boy for the MLB '06 video game. He also enjoys late night strolls along the beach, pottery class and snuggling next to the fireplace....

He Stands Before You. Clinton. Simply Clinton.

Blogdom's Best: Hating The Fighting Irish
Perhaps nothing says hatred like college athletics. We have witnessed the body painting, we have seen the flaming objects hurled onto the court.

Poll: Whom Do You Least Want To Run Into At McDonald's?
We still haven't quite come to terms with the bat-shit crazy weirdness of Marcus "New Mexico" Vick whipping out a gun at McDonald's the day after he declared for the NFL Draft, but it did get us to thinking: We haven't been to McDonald's for a long, long time. At first, we thought it was because w...

Redskins vs. Bucs - 3rd quarter
• That's how you get back into a game. First, the Bucs force a 3-and-out with a sack on third down, then a nice punt return, then a very slick offensive drive capped by a Simms TD on a bootleg. That's quality work you did at halftime, Jon Gruden. 17-10 Redskins....

Redskins vs. Bucs - 2nd quarter

Culpepper: Lap Dances? Who, Me?
We don't want to overstate — and it probably won't happen, anyway — but if Vikings sex boat gods Daunte Culpepper and Bryant McKinnie get their way, we might be in for the real trial of the century....
