Steve Nash Wipes His Armpits With A Towel, Metta World Peace Uses Same Towel To Wipe His Face
This video comes from last night's Lakers-Rockets game, which ended as another demoralizing loss of the Lakers. That's Steve Nash wiping the sweat from his armpits with a towel, casually handing the towel to his teammate Metta World Peace, and then walking away as World Peace proceeds to bury his ...

Stephen Jackson Injured When He Trips Over Courtside Waitress Serving Mayor Bloomberg
Spurs veteran wing Stephen Jackson suffered a bizarre injury at Madison Square Garden tonight when he appeared to trip over a courtside waitress in the first quarter of San Antonio's bout with the Knicks.

Anonymous Saint Says Steve Spagnuolo "Treats People Like Crap," Should Be Fired
I'm really glad that whole "no more nasty, anonymous quotes" movement didn't take off, because come on, they're so much fun. Two days after one one of the NFL's worst defenses in history finishes its season, we have an unnamed Saints player going to town on defensive coordinator Steve Spagnuolo....

Unranked Butler Knocked Off No. 1 Indiana In Overtime On An Awkward Floater From Walk-On Sophomore Alex Barlow
It shouldn't have even been as close it was down the stretch—Butler has been a tough draw since Brad Stevens became coach after the 2007, and it's doubtful that Indiana took them lightly, but this was a match-up of a No. 1 ranked team against an unranked opponent on a neutral floor. Indiana had come...

Last night, Chris Mueller (on 93.7 FM from 10 p.m.—2 a.m.) provided a little insight, which you can see above, into what it's like working the telephones for a light night Pittsburgh-area sports radio call-in show. We may try to get the audio, or we may just let this one float around in all of our i...

We're Pretty Sure Steve Young Did Not Say The Texans Had "The Biggest Dick In The League" Last Night
We've received a number of emails about this, and at least one other site has now reported it, no doubt because it has all the trappings of an epic malapropism by one of ESPN's on-air personalities. "Where is that dramatic fight from a team that thinks they have the biggest dick in the league?" St...

Hope Solo Defends Jerramy Stevens On Twitter
People are tweeting at Hope Solo about her new husband Jerramy Stevens's legal troubles. And surprisingly enough, she's responding to a few of them:...

Jerramy Stevens Was Arrested For The Second Time In 15 Days
Fifteen days ago, Jerramy Stevens got arrested, and we unconventionally discovered that he and Hope Solo had plans to get married and redefine the term "power couple."

ESPN Reprimands <em>SportsCenter</em> For Accurately Sourcing A Story: "IMPORTANT: DO NOT CREDIT SPORTS BY BROOKS"

After Court, Hope Solo And Jerramy Stevens Went And Got Married
Seems Olympic gold medal-winning goalkeeper Hope Solo and all-around awful human being Jerramy Stevens didn't let a rocky Tuesday afternoon in a Kirkland courtroom scuttle their plans to get married, as multiple reports throughout Wednesday claimed that Solo and Stevens, a former Seahawks tight end ...

The Lakers Found A New Coach In Seven Seconds Or Less: Mike D'Antoni
ESPN's Ramona Shelburne and Marc Stein are reporting that the Los Angeles Lakers have settled on Mike D'Antoni as the team's replacement for Mike Brown. This move is surprising for a few reasons, first among them the fact that D'Antoni is still recovering from knee surgery, and as recently as last ...

Other Than That, How Was The Movie? <em>Lincoln</em>, Reviewed.
1. The opening scene of Steven Spielberg's Lincoln will probably ring false to you and confirm your preconceptions of a sweeping, soft-focus, John Williams-scored Steven Spielberg film about Abraham Lincoln. It features Lincoln, played by Daniel Day-Lewis, visiting troops right before a fierce Civil...

Steve Blake Apologized To The Fan He Cursed Out, Possibly Because The Fan's Father Is A Big Shot
Friday's "home" loss to the Clippers was frustrating for the then-winless Lakers, and especially for Steve Blake. Getting his first start of the season, Blake racked up three times as many fouls as baskets. Blake heard it from the crowd, but specifically from one fan named Lance Jackson, sitting c...

Steve Smith Goes Big Willie Style
Steve Smith had himself a totally average day: 41 yards receiving and one touchdown. But it's what you do with yourself after the touchdown that counts-and did Smith ever do stuff with himself after the touchdown. Following a 19 yard reception in the second quarter Steve did this little (???) dance ...

Steve Nash is going to dress how he want to dress. You got a problem with that? You better not, even if he is wearing a salmon (?) sweater and bow tie....

Boston TV Reporter Knocked Down Three Times, Poked In The Face By Fence, Loses Hat, Finishes Report
In the ever-competitive world of televised hurricane coverage, reporters must go the extra step to stand out above the competition. Here's WHDH-Boston's Steve Cooper showing true resilience, falling three times (just like Jesus!) and rising again to finish his report from Plum Island. Poor Steve e...

Steve Mariucci Went For A Ride With Ragnar
NFL Network's Thursday night broadcasts are studies in contrasts: Brad Nessler's rock-solid game call accompanies Mike Mayock's best-in-the-business analysis, and then they send it to a studio panel where Rich Eisen tries (and usually fails) to wrangle his motley crew of screaming fools. Steve Mari...

Steve Francis Is Being Sued For $9,000 In Missed Payments On A 1964 Ford Thunderbird
We haven't heard from Steve Francis in a while. Last we checked in, he was being welcomed like a king in China—then left his team after playing less than 14 minutes. Seems he's living back in Houston (in a pretty nice house, so don't worry about Stevie), and buying classic cars, and, allegedly, not ...
