Now Accepting Nominations For The Deadspy Awards, Our Anti-ESPYs
If ESPN can spend the worst sports week of the year staging a monstrously wasteful and self-indulgent awards ceremony, we at Deadspin figured ... hey, why not us, too?

A Pissed-Off Charl Schwartzel Smashes His Club In Frustration
After bogeying Nos. 10, 12, 13, and 14 today at Muirfield, Charl Schwartzel found himself in the rough at No. 15. He didn't quite get to the green from there, and his 6-iron paid the price. Stupid 6-iron. Schwartzel wound up with a double-bogey at 15....

Anna Benson Was Once Charged With Murder
In 1996, Anna Benson, then Anna Warren, was charged with murder after an 18-year-old man was found executed in the weird graffiti-covered Knoxville apartment she shared with her boyfriend.

Report: Dwight Howard Wanted The Lakers To Phase Out Kobe Bryant
So, take this with a grain of salt as you would any other sourced report, but it jibes with public comments from both players as well as common sense: ESPN claims that a big reason Dwight Howard left the Lakers was because he didn't want to play with Kobe Bryant for another five years....
