Simply put, we can think of no more embarrassing yet hilarious opening line to a letter than this:...
Baseball Players Hitting Each Other With Chairs
For those of you who pay attention to such matters, TNA wrestling is having some sort of pay-per-view event this weekend that will feature "Team Pierzynski" vs. "Team Eckstein." That's A.J.

Heights Baptist Church in Beech Island, S.C., apparently agrees, which is why they started a "Wrestling For Jesus" ministry three years ago. A...
The Father, The Son And The Half Nelson
We're not sure this directly relates to sports, but it's close enough for government work: We proudly introduce you to the Christian Wrestling Federation. (Thanks to this probably isn't worth your time for the heads up.)...
