ESPN Tries To Find Someone Who Can Match Skip Bayless' Intelligence
So you know how "Cold Pizza" is changing its name to "ESPN First Take" and moving from New York City to Bristol next month? You didn't know this? What's that you say? You don't care at all? Yeah. We can probably understand where you're coming from there....
Lexington's Long National Nightmare Now Over
This just in: We'll try not to go all Politico / John Edwards on you here — for the record, we love that site, occasional big error aside — but we've received word from a TV station in Louisville and from another source that Kentucky fans desperate to rid themselves of Tubby Smith have had their wis...
Stephon Marbury Has Something In Common With All Of You
Namely, he doesn't like Stephen A. Smith. That delightful zinger was the outro for Stephon Marbury's new talk show, called... actually, I don't know what the hell it's called. But it exists, and that, to be honest with you, is more than I wanted to know about it in the first place....
Trying To Understand The Illini Car Crash
Now that Illini center Brian Carlwell's condition after Monday's accident in a car driven by teammate Jamar Smith has been upgraded to "fair," we think it's probably OK to look at some of the more bizarre aspects to the crash....
Inside The Awful Illini Car Accident

Stephen A. Smith, Voice Of Reason In A World Of Insanity
OK, now we're not gonna get into politics this morning, but someone sent us this clip of Stephen A. Smith — listed as "Stephen Smith" — debating atheism on CNN. This isn't the first time he's debated non-sports topics on CNN, but this is the first time we've grabbed a clip....
That Other Guy... He Wasn't Even Acting
That's Stephen A. Smith's brief appearance on "General Hospital," an ABC daytime soap that never really recovered from the loss of Jack Wagner (don't judge me). I've gotta hand it to Stephen A., that wasn't bad. He was able to step outside himself, fully immerse himself in the role, and, just for a ...
Jay Mariotti Was On To Lovie Smith From The Beginning
We haven't made fun of Jay Mariotti for a while, so it's probably time. Good to shake off the rust sometimes....

Rex Grossman, Like Jim McMahon, But Without The Sunglasses And Headband

That'll Be All For "Quite Frankly"
We haven't received any definitive confirmation, but there are rumors swirling this morning that, after last night's taping of "Quite Frankly With Stephen A. Smith," ESPN executive vice president Norby Williamson — Norby! — informed the show's staff that the program has been canceled and will air it...
Let's Go To The Studio, Where It's Jimmy With Keggy And The Gang
Considering that FOX has barely showed any college football this year and therefore has no established halftime "in the studio" team, we were curious how they would handle last night, which after all was the supposed biggest game of the year. We admire their conclusion: They just picked two retired ...

What they're saying in Blogville about Florida's 41-14 win over Ohio State in Monday's BCS Championship Game ......
Tubby Smith's Ineptitude Captured Through Majesty of Song
