La'el Collins Nearly Didn't Make It Out Of The Draft
Former LSU offensive lineman La’el Collins had one of the most bizarre NFL draft sagas in recent memory.

Cursin' Tiger Woods Strikes Again
Tiger Woods has actually been playing pretty decently at this year's Masters, but a rotten tee shot on today's par-5 13th left him dropping the old reliable "oh my fucking God" again. We'd say the same thing if, you know, we just hurled a club like that....

Who's Smooching In The Background Of Rajai Davis's Interview?
As Rajai Davis was talking to Fox Sports Detroit during today's Marlins-Tigers game, a player wandered into the frame, waved at the camera, sat down, and smooched a gal before the two left. The reader who gave us the heads-up believes it was Joe Nathan, and it sure looks like him....

PGA Tour Denies Claim That Tiger Woods Failed A Drug Test
Tiger Woods isn't golfing. He's taking some time off to rest, to heal, and to work on his game. But according to one dude who probably doesn't know anything, it's all a coverup, and Woods is actually serving a secret Tour suspension for a failed drug test. Today, both the PGA Tour and Woods's agent ...
Jarell Martin Pulls Off In-Game East Bay Funk Dunk
You won't be faulted for thinking that you're watching a dunk contest here, but Jarell Martin managed to unleash this between-the-legs dunk during LSU's game against Florida today.

Tiger, What The Fuck, Man?
Holy shit! This is Tiger Woods's third shot on the par-4 tenth (his first of the day) at the Farmers Insurance Open. Jesus Christ, he just bangs this thing like a railroad spike, less like a chip shot than Miguel Cabrera rocking a line drive up the third base line, or any Dwight Howard hook shot eve...
