Derek Jeter's Glove is Only Useful For Fielding Trim
Poor Derek Jeter. Even with his professional achievements and world wide popularity, he always seems to be getting dogged by seamhead geeks trying in earnest to convince baseball fans the man is just not that good.

Who's Sorry Now? Josh Howard Edition
So far this has been quite the year for Josh Howard. Drag racing. Smokin' the reefer. And my favorite, disrespecting the National Anthem on YouTube. OK, who among is hasn't done all three?

Hey, I couldn't let you head out toward your weekend without this small bit of advice: Drive safely. Because even if the cop lets you off with a warning, you may end up with the ticket anyway.
