Get Thee Away, A-Rod!
While totally not being the subject of tons of rumors right now — absolutely not, how could you say that? — Yankees bitch-slapper Alex Rodriguez was turned away from snotty NYC hotspot Club Macanudo because he was wearing a T-shirt and jeans. He should have been wearing a skirt. Actually, are we ...

ESPN Hollywood Looms Ominously
Legimate question: If you move from ESPN2's "Cold Pizza" to another ESPN2 show with Mario Lopez, is that considered a promotion? We're just asking. (Correlary question: Would you rather work with Woody Paige or a guy who used to hang out with Screech? Actually, that's kind of the same thing.)...
Gotcha!
We have been giggling all morning at Marlins third baseman Mike Lowell's successful execution of the hidden-ball trick last night; it's our favorite play in sports. We're hardly alone either.

Rosenhaus Tries To Woo Letterman, Fails
We watched NFL "superagent" Drew Rosenhaus on "Late Show With David Letterman" last evening. We have to say: It's the first time we've ever seen a guest on that show being booed. Lustily booed. And Letterman wasn't afraid to keep grilling him either. ...

Get Ready: Another 'Roid Name Is Coming
Orioles roid head — that's a new name we're trying out; great, ain't it? — Rafael Palmeiro is scheduled to return to the Orioles tomorrow after serving his 10-day suspension for steroids.

Another Reason To Hate Teenagers
We've been watching video of that dumbass teenager who jumped onto the screen behind home plate at Yankee Stadium last night. We love contrasting the terrified look on his face after he pulled that stunt with the this-is-why-we're-never-having-children smirk when he was taken into police custody ...

We know that a new paternity suit in the NBA can hardly be classified as "news" anymore, but hey, it's still pretty fun, right?
