South Carolina Fan Arrested For Mooning The Crowd At LSU Game
You do get the feeling that Saturday night's game would have been extra-frustrating for a Gamecocks fan who traveled all the way from South Carolina only to watch his No. 3 team get upset in Baton Rouge. So that explains, but does not excuse, the actions of Charles Hattaway, a 34-year-old from Charl...

It's the Tigers in the Bronx again at 4:00 p.m. on TBS, in a series that has so far been essentially bereft of story lines, and robbed of any dramatic potential.

Oakland A's Fan Mistakes Prince Fielder's Son For A Girl, Family Chews Him Out
According to the YouTube uploader, this all went down at Game 5 in Oakland. It's unclear why this A's fan, who may or may not be inebriated, was talking to the Fielder family but at some point a woman who looks strikingly like Prince Fielder's wife starts chewing him out for calling her son a girl....

The Yankees Lose Captain Luck
Somehow the Yankees lost last night, even though Raul Ibanez had tied yet another game with yet another ninth inning home run, and the loss was not even the worst thing that happened. Derek Jeter is done. Twenty-four hours ago I could not have imagined how deflating it would be, even if you'd laid o...

Here's The Insane Suplex An Alabama Defensive Lineman Laid On A Missouri Running Back
Missouri was basically running clock in the closing moments of its blowout loss to the Crimson Tide yesterday.

Raul Ibanez Comes Through With A Game-Tying Home Run To Send Game One Of The ALCS Into Extra Innings
With fans filing out in the bottom of the ninth inning and the Yankees down to their last out, Raul Ibanez did what Raul Ibanez apparently does, hitting a game-tying home run to send the first game of the ALCS to extra innings.

Good News, Everyone, A-Rod Is Back: Your ALCS Open Thread
Mr. October July? Rodriguez is back in the starting line-up (if you call "batting sixth" the starting line-up). Dog Fister and Andy Pettitte square off in chilly New York, and the ghosts of Orioles past will fly aimlessly through stadium, moaning resonantly and giving players from both sides the chi...

How Do Recovering Cheaters Comply With NCAA Regulations?
While the NCAA has a vested interest in keeping premier programs strong, the Urban Meyer hire at Ohio State may still have been disheartening to those in charge of keeping the school's football team in line.

After One Of The Most Excruciating Losses In Postseason History, The Nationals Sent Their Fans A Ticket Presale Notice For The World Series
Want Nationals World Series tickets? That is too bad, because they lost their series with the Cardinals in objectively horrifying fashion last night, and you can't even get NLCS tickets, or any tickets, because there are no more games for the Nationals. The loss was painful, the way they lost was tw...

Todd Coffey Has A 14-Year-Old Friend Who Has A Kid And That Kid Has Some Interesting Views On Obama
Bulbous Dodgers reliever Todd Coffey signed up for Twitter in March of last year, but he's only tweeted 166 times, depending on whether you count deleted tweets. He has a few of those now, because he or someone with access to his (verified! because of course there are parodies) account went on a ver...

OK, Seriously, What The Hell Just Happened: The Cardinals Are Headed To The NLCS
Let's set aside the fact that the Nationals had the best record in baseball this year and the fact that the Cardinals had the worst record of any playoff team, because neither of those is the fundamental reason we ask this question: what the hell just happened? The Cardinals—the Pujols-less Cardina...

Nationals Buoyed By Fans' "Magical" A-Ha Singalongs To "Take On Me"—And Tonight's Was The Best Yet
As noted earlier this week, Michael Morse's walkup music choice of a-ha's "Take On Me" has become a rallying cry for "Natitude." The intensity of the singing has increased as the series has gone on, and tonight's eighth-inning rendition was truly a sight to see. Er, hear. [TBS]...
