Roll Over And Die Like A Champion
We're not sure if we can contribute that much more to the pile-on that has become discussion of the 2007 Notre Dame Fighting Irish and coach Charlie Weis ... but we're gonna try....
The OJ Simpson Feel Good Moment
Like most people, we took a certain satisfaction in watching O.J. Simpson taken away in handcuffs yesterday after being arrested for armed robbery , assault, burglary and conspiracy. We never even had the satisfaction of seeing him carted off when he was arrested the first time, before we knew he wa...
For Your Sunday Afternoon Viewing Pleasure ...
I'll post a quick preview of today's one o'clock games shortly. But in the meantime, I suggest you check out J.P. Kirby's — New Brunswick, represent! — NFL TV distribution maps to see the games in your area, and the assigned announcing teams....
I know very little about college football. BCS, Big 12, Dan Shanoff is Tim Tebow. Huh? What? Gabe must be so confused. So help a blogger out today, and send your funny, insightful and expletive-laced comments to the AIM screen name, NCAA Deadspin. My "control," "C" and "V" keys thank you in advance....
Careful: This Club Is Destined To Make You Unhappy
We don't play a lot of golf — it's honestly been about five years since we played — so we don't own our set of clubs. If we needed to buy some, though, we probably would not want this club in our set. Too much history....
Up Close And Personal With Ned
We're just about 27 hours away from the monstrous battle between Miami and Florida International, and the return of Ned....

He Might Get More Votes Than Mike Gravel
You've been blinded by the breathtaking brilliance of Digger Phelps on ESPN for years. Somehow, in the vast barren nation of banality, Phelps has been a beacon of hope and brilliance. So much so that, sheesh, we should elect him President!...
Marlins-Nationals Always Brings In The Big Crowds
We know it's the middle of September, and it's still kind of hot out, and everyone's back at work and concentrating on their jobs — really! — so not many have time to just head to Dolphins Stadium and watch two lousy teams play each other. But 400 people? 400? Really?...
We Have To Ask
Suggested questions for today's ESPN SportsNation chatters ... • 11 a.m. Women's World Cup with Graham Hays: Couldn't they start these games later? • 2 p.m. MLS with LA's Kyle Martino: Who gets Beckham's locker, or did he have his own dressing room? • 2:30 p.m. Ex-Gator QB Shane Matthews: This All-A...
At Last, Ned Has His Opportunity At Revenge
Sure, you can talk all you want about Michigan-Notre Dame — and the apparent curse of Bo Schembechler — but the real story this weekend is what's happening at the Orange Bowl on Saturday. That's right: It's the return of Ned!...
Off To Seattle We Go ...
In about two hours, we'll be hopping on a plane — JetBlue; we love the JetBlue — for the sunny peninsula of Seattle, Washington. (Note: Seattle is neither sunny nor a peninsula.) We've got quite a weekend schedule in Seattle, thanks largely to the fine folks at KJR 950, which has even set up the wo...
Vote Boulware! (Or Something)
When we think about NFL players of the last 10 years or so we'd imagine running for office someday, we can't say that former Ravens linebacker Peter Boulware was the first guy to come to mind. He's never had any problems in his life or anything; it's not like Michael Irvin or anything. (Or, you know...
PIck Through The Remnants Of Michael Strahan's Life
We have stayed up many late nights, hoping, praying, that somehow, Giants defensive lineman Tooth McTootherson and his wife /ex-wife / wife Jean Strahan could figure out a way to solve their marriage. It's like you just can't have faith in the institution anymore! As if accusations of gay sex with p...
We Have To Ask ...
Suggested questions for today's ESPN SportsNation chatters ... • 11 a.m. NFL with Chris Mortenson: Chris, you 've been wrong about a few things.

About Last Night ...
What you missed while fighting the Crazy 88s ... • MLB: LaLaWood Fables ... Dodgers sink slowly in the West, Angels soar. It's the circle of life. • WNBA: It seems like only yesterday that you didn't care that the WNBA season had begun, and now you fail to care that the Finals are almost over. Weird...
Do You Have Irish-Wolverines Fever?
If you didn't get your fill of quality football from that train wreck at Monster Park last night, worry not: You still have the Notre Dame-Michigan game to look forward to this Saturday. Yes, the 0-2 Fighting Irish travel to the 0-2 Wolverines in a game that has all the intrigue of two 80-year-old m...
