Brett Favre's (alleged!) penis is back in the news and now it's because he doesn't want it shown off.

It's Still Preseason For ESPN's Promo Department, Too

A.J. Ellis Hits Walk-Off Single For Dodgers, Teammates Take Turns Punching Him In The Nuts
If Ellis wants to blame anyone, it should really be Andre Ethier. If not for his game-tying home run in the bottom of the ninth, Ellis never would have had a chance to hit a single in the bottom of the 11th, driving in the winning run as he capped off a 4-3 Dodgers comeback against the Padres....

Mike Tyson: Evander Holyfield's Barbecue Sauce Is Ear-Licking Good
A while back, Holyfield and Tyson began using twitter to spread the word about Holyfield's "Real Deal" BBQ sauce.

Bernie, Of <i>Weekend At Bernie's</i> Fame, Threw Out The First Pitch In Oakland This Weekend
The Oakland A's have adopted the "Moves Like Bernie" dance. This is a "dance" popularized by some rapper featuring a plot point from Weekend At Bernie's II (Bernie's back...and still dead!): Bernie, a corpse, gets hit with some crazy voodoo in the beginning of the film and everytime he hears music ...
In Defense Of The Blundering Red Sox
Well. What else is there to say about the Red Sox that has not already been said? They started the year banning beer from the clubhouse to put an end to those chicken and beer stories. Bobby Valentine then began the season publicly questioning one of the team's better players. They were compared to ...
Brent Musburger Said Piss, And Kirk Herbstreit Couldn't Keep His Shit Together
On Saturday night, we all speculated about what Brent Musburger could have said that was bad enough that ABC felt the need to cut off the audio while he and Kirk Herbstreit pulled themselves together. Today, we have the unedited version: piss. He said "piss," instead of "pick." ...
Charl Schwartzel Four-Putting From Three Feet Away Is Brutal
This is the kind of mess that makes you so uncomfortable you almost can't watch it all. But of course, you do watch it all. Three times. Three times he missed this seemingly unmissable putt. Maybe we shouldn't count the last miss because it was likely the result of equal parts anger and shame, but...
Andy Roddick Is Still Alive, Getting Emotional At U.S. Open
This was bound to happen once he announced he would retire following the tournament, but it's still a nice moment to watch for the suckers in Arthur Ashe stadium. The crowd was juiced on match point and had to be told twice, in vain, to quiet down, but it didn't matter. Roddick's serve was returne...
Texans Fans Brawl In Rafters Of Reliant Stadium
This is a pretty solid fight video as far as fight videos go. It's even filmed properly so mad genius video guy Burke won't have a seizure watching it.

Alfredo Aceves Had A Weird Day
Not really sure what was going on with Alfredo Aceves yesterday, but he was acting like a bigger basket case than usual. He and Dustin Pedroia got into an argument in the dugout—probably because Aceves threw over to second, like, 17 times and Pedroia seemed ill-prepared for each successive toss—an...
Marcus Allen Is Smoking Something If He Thinks College Kids Hitting The Bong Is Like The Debt Crisis
Here we have a couple intelligent men discussing marijuana during Fox's college football halftime show. Marcus Allen, hall of fame running back, and this other guy are about to have a serious chat about athletes and drugs. Then we hear about the elephant in the living room—as though college kids d...
Ken Rosenthal And The Dugout Of Mysteries
What in Dumbledore's name is Ken Rosenthal talking about? I follow Ken on Twitter. He's useful when news is happening and seems like a nice guy (when he's not threatening interns). I have probably never clicked on a link to a story of his in my time following him, though. Until this morning for some...
