Nobody survives till age 49 in the major leagues without making enemies. Hence Jamie Moyer's dustup with whippersnapper Chipper Jones this weekend.

Okay, so this guy doesn't want to be on TV, even if anybody who knows him would immediately recognize his checked shirt and bald spot. But why so shy in the first place? Playing hooky from work? Cheating on his wife? Hideously and improbably deformed? (Why buy courtside seats, then?) Maybe he is,...

The 1990 U.S. Men's World Cup Team Will Never Live Down This Video
Numerous shots of half-naked players doing the running man on the beach to bad rap. O.J. Simpson. Strange hands rubbing Paul Caligiuri's hairy chest. This is either a brilliant homoerotic rip-off a Newport Full Flavor ad or the most disturbing video I've ever seen....

Paraguay's Cellphone-Boobs Girl Robbed, Probably Shouldn't Have Shown World Where She Hid Her Cellphone
Larissa Riquelme—bust-out star of the World Cup, "owooga"-inducer, and cellphone-placement-innovator—was robbed by "bandidos" while vacationing in Rio, losing her cellphone, passport, and other "documents."

The Cowboys' Martellus Bennett is sorry for that earlier rap, when he rhymed "Romo" with "homo." Precisely $22,000 worth of sorry. So he'd like to make it up to you with ... another rap....

Who's Sorry Now? ESPN Columnist Edition
I wanted the final Who's Sorry Now? post during Will's tenure to be a memorable one, and this one's a doozy. Jemele Hill's latest column over at the Page Dos includes the phrase "I'm sorry," not once, but three times ... plus dozens of other variations of the term sprinkled throughout. It's a mea cu...

Excuse the blatant self-promotion for a minute, but it's Friday, and it's always important to celebrate high points in one's career. That is why I am posting an article I wrote for this month's Penthouse magazine about last year's venerable Philadelphia gorge-puke-and-boobfest, "Wing Bowl."...
