Farewell And Adieu To You Fair Spanish Ladies
Just in case David Beckham has any ideas about sticking around in Europe, Tom Cruise and wife Katie Holmes were on hand to make sure that he gets on that plane for LA. Sunday's farewell game was a magical moment for Beckham's rooting section (that's Victoria toting Imp Spice next to the Cruises), as...

John Stockton Thinks This Is Excessive
Brandon Lloyd (I think that's who it is) appears to be impressed with the look. I can't tell if that look on his face says, "Man, you are crazy," or "I sho' wouldn't mind hittin' that from the back."...

What, Like House Of Pain Was Gonna Do Anything?

A Fitting Tribute To Larry O'Brien, If Larry O'Brien Was A Drunk
It lacks the Stanley Cup's charming ability to serve as a giant alcohol dispenser, but the NBA's Larry O'Brien trophy can be surrounded with what appear to be empty beer cans.

It is probably not a good sign that the morning after we crown a new NBA champion — and we do congratulate the Spurs, sure — more people are emailing us about a guy who hasn't been in the NBA for 11 years than they are about the game. (To be fair, the story did involve masturbation.) When's the draf...

Our Long National Nightmare Could End Tonight
We're not sure what the official name is for what we'll be doing to the Spurs when if they win the NBA Championship tonight. Will we coronate them? Dub them a dynasty? Crown their asses?...

To Watch Tonight
What to watch as about 300 dogs bark and claw at your back door, for some reason. Could it be your shorts? • MLB: Atlanta at Minnesota.
