Buffalo Brought The MACtion As They Ended The First Half Against Kent Tonight With A 46-Yard Hail Mary TD
Wednesday nights belong to the MAC, as any college football degenerate knows, and while the scoring of tonight's Kent-Buffalo matchup hasn't yet reached levels of, say, last year's NIU-Toledo game, the MACtion is alive and well. Just ask Alex Neutz, the Bulls receiver who hauled in this 46-yard ha...
Jay Cutler's Baby Still Learning How To Sulk
I was browsing People's celebrity baby blog, and came upon this: the first photo of young Camden Jack Cutler. Camden's got quite the lifetime ahead, considering his parents are a vapid dullard who somehow keeps finding a way to get on television yet remains forever eluded by success, and Kristin Cav...
Kill ’Em All. <em>Dredd</em>, Reviewed.
Even a truly morally reprehensible, super-violent movie has its place in the culture. I'm not talking about a film like Dark Knight Rises, which in the wake of the Aurora shootings was the subject of our most recent cultural spasm over Hollywood violence. That was actually a thoughtful, artistic com...
LSU Grandmas Still Do Keg Stands
Last year, when another Keg Stand Granny gave it the old college try at an LSU tailgate, there was plenty of spillage. But this 83-year-old sugarpie seems to have perfected her technique. Your move, old ladies of Alabama....
Is A Quota The Answer For Reining In Hockey Fights?
Fighting! Few serious fans of hockey think it doesn't have a place in the sport. But then, no serious fans think this bullshit belongs either. How, then, to separate the meaningful fighting for legitimate purposes—enforcement, deterrence, stimulation—from fighting for fighting's sake? The OHL has an...

Who Is The Blurry Guy In This Photo, And Why Did Manny Ramirez Steal His Pants? The Long Baseball Life Of "The Machete"
After Roger Clemens's first start in the Atlantic League, the Associated Press sent across the wires a photo of him in the middle of his lumpy follow-through, pitching to an out-of-focus batter at the plate. The Hall of Famer, of course, had dropped in to pitch for the Sugar Land Skeeters; his oppon...
Tim Tebow Threatens To Enter Politics When He's Done With Football
Regardless of your personal feelings toward one Tim Tebow, it can't be denied that he's good at getting people to talk about him. In politics, that kind of innate skill that can come in handy at opportune times. Combine that with his very clear views on certain topics and it's not much of a surprise...
Paint Your Corners. Clint Eastwood's Baseball Movie, <em>Trouble With The Curve</em>, Reviewed.
1. Pretty much everything about Trouble With the Curve is a crock, but I couldn't help but like it anyway. It has a hackneyed, painfully overstructured screenplay; its motivations for its characters are stock at best and embarrassingly obvious at worst; and it knows so little about the game of baseb...
NBC Decides The Cubs Probably Aren't Going To Win The World Series This Year
Two screenshots. On the left, an early press photo for NBC's new show Revolution, set in a post-apocalyptic 2027, as the characters walk pass a Wrigley Field claimed by the ivy. On the right, the same picture, taken from the show's actual broadcast last night. The "2012 World Series Champions" sign ...
Some Jackass Made Blowjob Pantomimes Behind Home Plate At Wrigley For Nearly An Inning Before Getting Ejected
Weather delayed last night's Pirates-Cubs bout at Wrigley Field for several hours, and by the end of the 3-0 Pittsburgh win there weren't many fans left in the stadium. There was, however, one guy who really wanted to get on TV making blowjob faces....

The following is excerpted from a comment that was left in the discussion section of yesterday's story about Stephen A. Smith's first brush with The Onion:...

Jay Mariotti Is Maxin' And Relaxin' And Writing Shitty-Ass Columns Again
Look at that picture! Just look at it! That's a picture of Jay Mariotti, taken right after he polished off his second craft beer of the afternoon, no doubt, and right before he started talking about how he's always "really appreciated" Tom Waits, and that most people don't know that about him....
Chargers 38, Titans 10: The Game In A Solitary GIF
Yeah. Not a whole lot went right for the Titans. Uh, no fumbles! That's pretty cool, right? Whatever. Chris Johnson had eight carries for 17 yards and everything is pretty sad on the Tennessee side so let's just not talk about the actual game. Here's something else to talk about: The replacement re...
Bengals 34, Browns 27: The Game In Two GIFs
Some primo running in this one—and actually some primo passing too, and generally good football playing all around. It's like Sean always says (this morning), "it's these god-awful looking games that become the most compelling." This one wasn't the most compelling, but if you like long runs to the e...
Eagles 24, Ravens 23: The Game In Three Gifs
A dogfight between cities on I-95 that just plain hate each other. It showed:...
