Less Is More: How The <em>Paranormal Activity</em> Movies Got Better With Each Sequel
Sequels are almost never as good as the original movie, so it's a downright miracle when a franchise gets better as it goes along. It's hard to think of many that achieved that feat, but here's one you may not have considered: The Paranormal Activity series....
Yankee Stadium Was Rather Sparsely Populated A Few Minutes Before First Pitch
Maybe this is some kind of expression of solidarity on Alex Rodriguez's behalf. Or maybe Yankee fans aren't any more special and dedicated to their team than fans of any other team. I mean, I did see the wave break out three times at a Yankee game this summer....

Once Upon A Time, The Jets Were Willing To Bench Mark Sanchez
Drew Stanton was a Jet for all of a week. He signed to be the backup to Mark Sanchez, but other events intervened. Peyton Manning decided on the Broncos, so Tim Tebow became expendable. The Jets traded for Tebow, at a not-insignificant cost in both draft pick and money, and Stanton was the odd man o...
Ben Roethlisberger Is Not Impressed
Tennessee upset Pittsburgh last night in a Thursday Night Football game full of exciting field goals and the sort of play that led most viewers to seek out more compelling sports TV on TBS or TNT. A last-second field goal by Rob Bironas—his fourth of the game—locked things up for the Titans, and a ...
Hooray For <em>Sinister</em>, A Horror Movie That's Actually Good
For a genre that remains a Hollywood staple, horror doesn't get much respect. If a film isn't screened in advance for critics, it's usually a horror movie. Although they dominate Halloween, they're also the movies that get dumped at the deadest corners of the release calendar: January and late Augus...
"Now I Know What Chicks Feel Like," Tim Lincecum Responds After Being "Hit In The Fucking Face With A Fucking Cork"

Woody Johnson Got Flustered When A CNBC Anchor Asked Him If Tim Tebow Was Still A Virgin
The Jets held their own against the best team in football on Monday night while Mitt Romney surged in the polls, so New York owner Woody Johnson must have assumed he was on sure footing when he headed into CNBC's coked-up Squawk Box earlier today. After the usual Mark Sanchez chat, Johnson faced a...
Ichiro's Run Last Night Was Everything You Love About Ichiro And Everything You Hate About The Yankees
This is one of the things about the Yankees, one of the reasons the New York Yankees are a sickness on the soul of baseball, this play from Ichiro Suzuki last night. Ichiro! Honestly, if you root against the Yankees—which is to say, if you are not a native of the Bronx or a depraved human being—thi...
Mark Sanchez's Quarterback Rating Is 66.6 Because Of Course It Is
This is almost too good to be true. First, Tim Tebow let us know that last night was the 666th Monday Night Football game in history, and then Mark Sanchez went out and played like Mark Sanchez as the Jets fell victim to the Houston Texans....

Maryland State Troopers Asked The Yankees For Autographs During The Game
Camden Yards beefed up security for the Orioles' return to the playoffs, as is customary.

But two troopers, stationed in the Yankees' dugout, make the rookie mista...

NFL Network Reports That Jets Have Unsold Tickets For Monday Night, So Naturally It's A Tebow Thing
The backup quarterback is always more popular than the starter because he is an unknown quantity; he theoretically could be better than the starter. Tim Tebow is not an unknown quantity.

TBS Would Like To Introduce You To "Carl" Ripken, Jr.
Tonight's MLB wild card coverage on TBS has trumpeted Turner's new acquisition Bleacher Report, and the influence is already showing.
