Bill Murray Is Wearing A Ghillie Suit And Punting Footballs At The Pebble Beach Pro-Am
I'd urge anyone watching this to try not to make sense of it. Bill Murray (paired with D.A. Points) is competing today at the Pebble Beach Pro-Am in a ghillie suit, what appear to be gardening gloves, and at one point he punted a football into the crowd. It's all so ludicrously surreal you may wi...

Jason Whitlock: Expert On Asian Penises
Truly Jeremy Lin's extraordinary explosion to prominence in the NBA is bringing out the best in sportspeople. Writers have been fired for far less, indeed, and as of 11:10 p.m. EST this off-color tweet from Jason Whitlock is still out there. It probably will be in the morning, too, since Whitlock i...
Here's Fox Sports Detroit's Insightful Sideline Interview With Chewbacca During The Pistons Game

Jeremy Lin Is Eating Derek Fisher Alive
Jeremy Lin has 18 points at the half of the Knicks' home battle against Los Angeles, and the Lakers' strategy of having Derek Fisher guard the New York sensation isn't working out so well—as you can see with this spin-o-rama drive.

Once again, John Buccigross is in the middle of daytime SportsCenter antics, this time with Dwayne Johnson, who may or may not still be using "The Rock" professionally.

You Have Four Days Remaining To Bid On This Leather-Bound & Autographed Copy Of Jerry Sandusky's Book
There are apparently only 250 leather-bound copies of Touched by Jerry Sandusky (and Kip Richeal) in existence, and this one's autographed by Sandusky, Matt Millen, Greg Buttle, Kyle Brady, Lance Mehl, Ed O'Neil and Jack Ham. It comes complete with a certificate of authenticity, which I'm guessing ...
Oklahoma's Steven Pledger Prematurely Celebrated His Game-Tying Buzzer-Beater That Didn't Go In
It can't feel good to lose, especially in front of an empty arena. But it takes a certain amount of hubris—beyond the amount we're comfortable with, at least—to celebrate a shot before it goes in, especially if that shot wouldn't even win you the game. Then it doesn't go in, and all the sympathy ...
