Alex Rodriguez Resists Temptation
If it's true that A-Rod likes the "she-male, muscular type," then it must have been quite a struggle to maintain focus last night. Decent effort, Fenway fans ... but it wouldn't hurt you to show a little more cleavage....

LeBron Does All Kinds Of Things Humans Aren't Supposed To Be Able To Do
This photo is of the last point of the final 25 LeBron James scored last night to give the Cavaliers a 3-2 series lead in the Eastern Conference Finals. (Yes, for once, the Eastern Conference playoffs were not just watchable, but thrilling.) We find it amazing that in this shot, there are five Detro...

Notes on a day in baseball:...
LeBron Would Like To Make His Case Now
Heavens to Betsy: We think it's possible that LeBron James has proven himself in the fourth quarter. Or in overtime. Or in double overtime. Or, perhaps soon, in the NBA Finals. He scored the last 25 points for the Cavs. That, friends, is ridiculous. Consider our jaws officially agape. More tomorrow....
Cavs' Chance To Take Total Control
Larry Hughes will be back tonight, but nobody really cares about that anymore: The planet's got Daniel Gibson fever. Well, maybe that's pushing it, but if LeBron James and company can pull off Game 5 in Detroit tonight — hey, the Bulls won one there — then everything is upside down and crazy, and we...

The Rocket Would Rather You HGH Than Dip
As we await Roger Clemens' return to the game this Monday, we bring you this old public service announcement from Roger on the evils of chewing tobacco. The guy is a natural actor, though we really don't want to know what happened once the camera stopped rolling....
It's A Spurs Dance Party!
We can't possibly thank Pounding The Rock enough for the above video, featuring those always funky Spurs fans celebrating their series victory over the Suns, a celebration they likely continued last night. Careful, guys: You might pull a hammy or, you know, a goiter....
Take Some Time Off, Spurs
While Tim Duncan justifiably receives all the credit for the Spurs advancement to the NBA Finals — which don't start for another week, by the way — Full Court NBA Blog points out that the guards have been pretty great too. That said, last night, the Jazz checked out plenty early; they looked eager t...
It's The Spurs ... Again
We congratulate the Spurs on their trip to the NBA Finals. We're gonna try really hard to like them. Honest. We are. Hey, Tim Duncan! He's good. That's something. See you tomorrow....
Could Be The Last Night For Your Jazz
Now that the Eastern Conference Finals are heating up — as much as anything post-Golden State in this playoffs has been able to "heat up" — the Western Conference can wrap up tonight, with San Antonio finishing up the Manu-ization of the NBA. There won't be as many Jazz fans to throw Blistex at Bruc...
To Watch Tonight

A-Rod Has Sexual Urges, Apparently
Remind Alex Rodriguez, once again, why he decided to come to New York? As if matters weren't disastrous enough in The Bronx right now, it appears everybody's favorite sensitive boy has been gallivanting around Toronto with buxom blondes who aren't his wife. We know! We're as shocked as you! A Major ...
Larry Hughes Is Feeling Rather Marginalized Right Now
Over the weekend, we were discussing LeBron James with a friend of ours. Specifically, we were discussing whether or not it was fair of us, on this here site, to brush off any notion of unfairness about LeBron's late game exploits by saying, "if you want us to drink your shitty sports drink, you mus...
