MLB Umpires Manage To Blow Two Calls On The Same Play
Our old pals Tony Randazzo and Jordan Baker should have another set of companions in internet ignominy today: third-base ump Cory Blaser and first-base ump Ed Hickox both blew calls in the 12th inning of Padres-Rockes last night.

Mark Grant Likes To Crush Dodger Dogs, Dick Enberg Is A Sly Perv
Two women wearing hot dog hats caught the lens of the Fox Sports San Diego camera during the fifth inning of the Yasiel Puig Show and why not? Ladies wearing phalluses Dodger Dogs on their heads at a baseball game is as American as apple pie. ...
Marlins Outfielder Hilariously Loses Track Of Routine Home Run Ball
When watching baseball, if you lose track of a live fly ball off the bat, the easiest way to locate it is usually to watch the outfielder's reaction.

Report: David Chao Steered Junior Seau's Brain To NFL's Chosen Brain Bank

The Chargers' Doctor Is A Drunk Quack. Why Haven't They Fired Him?
The California Medical Board believes that David Chao should lose his medical license.

Dissenting: the NFL and the San Diego Charge...
Padres CEO Blames Zack Greinke For Brawl, Likens Him To Rain Man

After Brawl, Matt Kemp Confronts Carlos Quentin In Parking Lot
Nobody was angrier about Carlos Quentin's decision to charge the mound and break Zack Greinke's collarbone last night than Matt Kemp.

Twitter Loves The Orlando Magic, Has Never Heard Of The Arizona Cardinals

In it, the incomparably named Stu Woo compiled the Twitter follower counts...
The NFLPA Is Finally Telling The Chargers To Replace Malpracticin' David Chao As Their Team Doctor

Jamaal Franklin Goes Off The Backboard At Full Speed For This Dunk Of The Year Candidate
Will any other dunk during the 2012-13 college basketball season eclipse this insane moment of instinct, confidence, and sheer ballsiness? The correct response, almost assuredly, is "no."

Security Kicked Out An Entire Section Of Raiders And Chargers Fans
These seats are the absolute cheapest at Qualcomm Stadium: upper deck, behind an end zone, near the scoreboard. They're empty in this video, but not for a lack of tickets sold.
