After viewing trailers for the new movie Eight Below, we were led to believe that there is nothing stronger than the bond between a man and his sled dogs. Yeah, that's what they want you to think....
A-Rod Chucks Dominicans Under the Bus
Well, not really. But regardless of how it plays out, that's what most people will think. Everybody seems to just HATE this guy. Yesterday, Alex Rodriguez spoke openly about his decision to play for America in the upcoming World Baseball Classic, mostly because, well, he was born here. He didn't ...
Matt Millen's Discerning Eye For Genius
Whenever Lions general manager Matt Millen ("Fire Millen!") makes some sort of executive decision, we tend to sit up and take notice, if just so we can film it and send it into one of those blooper shows. Today's decision is the hiring ("Fire Millen!") of Buccaneers defensive line coach Rod Marine...
A-Rod Finally Stops Spinning
Honestly, we're starting to get a little embarrassed to even post about this, but hey, we're here, this is our job, this is what we do ... it's time for another Alex Rodriguez in the World Baseball Classic post. (We've covered this, let's see, here, here and here.)...

Happy Holidays From The Princes
The above holiday card was waiting in our mailbox when we returned to New York from a week back home in Mattoon. A nice gesture, Mr. Prince, and a happy holidays to you as well. We are pleasantly surprised the card was not covered in poo....

A-Rod, The World's Free Agent
Much talk this morning about Yankees hero of the working man Alex Rodriguez telling a radio station that he is leaning toward playing for the Dominican Republic in the upcoming World Baseball Classic rather than the United States. A-Rod has never, in fact, lived in the Dominican; he was born in Ne...
Rodman Keeps His Low Profile
Hey, Dennis Rodman made some "news" over the weekend. After showing up at a book signing scandalously dressed in revolutionary drag, Rodman apparently showed up at a DJ Tiesto show at Crobar and got himself in a wee bit of trouble....
Waiting For Rodman ...
Let's hear it for the people who waited for three hours outside of Kezar Pavilion in San Francisco on Tuesday for Dennis Rodman to show up for a book signing.

Deadspin Field Trip: Rodman's Book Signing
A media friend of ours emailed us yesterday and said, "Dennis Rodman's publicist just called me and promised he's going to pull a 'major' stunt at his book signing tomorrow." We couldn't imagine what Rodman could possibly do that could be classified as "major," save for, you know, sitting down and...
A-Rod ... After Dark!
