We're Just Getting Started, If By "Started," You Mean "Halfway Done"
It was TheStarterWife who said things were totally different on this side of the wall, and all I can add to that is "ain't that the fucking truth." But we've learned a few things that we'll be sure to apply toward tomorrow's festivities. First of all, we realize that Nibbles really is a delicate fl...
Just Wake Me When It's Over
September, of course, is when baseball approaches my favorite part of the season — the end.

Lil Romeo, Undersized, Shoot-First Point Guard
We've already shared with you our joy that Michael Jordan's son is going to be playing for our Illini this season. He's not all that good, but he's not costing a scholarship, and it'll make sure his dad impregnates a few co-eds. It'll be fun....

Imagine, hypothetically, that you were the one to catch Barry Bonds' 756th home run ball. It's not gonna be worth as much as it would have been a few years ago — you see, Barry Bonds has done a shitload of steroids, and many don't like that — but it still might, say, pay for a semester of college.

He's got three games in Bud Selig's hometown of Milwaukee to go for it this weekend, and then comes home for a week. It's possible he...
Wait! Maybe We Should Hear What He Has To Say ...
I'm skeptical this even is real — seriously, it's that funny — but two women were hospitalized — OK, so that parts not funny — Tuesday night after a horse leapt a dividing wall and climbed into the announcer's booth at a horse show in Lexington, Kentucky....
