Steve Smith Goes Big Willie Style
Steve Smith had himself a totally average day: 41 yards receiving and one touchdown. But it's what you do with yourself after the touchdown that counts-and did Smith ever do stuff with himself after the touchdown. Following a 19 yard reception in the second quarter Steve did this little (???) dance ...

Bobby Valentine Refuses To Go Away, Throws David Ortiz Under The Bus
Bobby V is no longer the Red Sox' manager—this alone is cause to break out the duck boats.

Florida Gators Coach Will Muschamp Can't Control The VOLUME OF HIS VOICE
The Florida Gators put a beating on South Carolina yesterday in what many expected to be the marquee match-up of the day. At halftime, the Gators were up 21-6, so local radio might reasonably have expected a positive and mellow interview from a pleasantly surprised Florida coach....

Pathetic MLB Playoffs Coverage On TBS Continues As They Misspell The Name Of Willie Mays
First there was this. TBS followed it up with this. That's not to mention the rotten and biased coverage from the Turner network's announcers.

Texas, A 63-21 Loser To Oklahoma, Still Has Mack Brown Signed Through 2020

Like Everyone Else, DeAngelo Williams Doesn't Care About Your Fantasy Team
Panthers running back DeAngelo Williams had a disappointing game on Sunday, carrying the ball six times for six yards and fumbling once.

Bruce Willis And Time Travel, Both More Alive Than Ever. <em>Looper,</em> Reviewed.
1. Looper is essentially two different movies spliced together at the midway point, but that's OK, because: a) the movies are thematically connected, with the second building off the windup of the first; and b) they're both excellent. The first half is a dark, thrilling time-travel mind-twister that...

Paul Thomas Anderson: Waiting For <em>The Master</em>
In late July, the Weinstein Company announced it would be releasing The Master, Paul Thomas Anderson's new movie, on September 14, which is early for an Oscar candidate.
