Maybe I'm the only the one who missed out on this rumor, but apparently it seems to be common knowledge that all the Olympians have crazy, hot sex all the time in the Olympic Village. Since you must actually be in the Olympics to have access to the Olympic Village, here are supposedly some of the easiest Olympic sports. You might try skeleton , which I had never heard of before today; it ...

Tough math leaves Liukin silver It isn't the "tough math" that phases me, but rather the use of vernacular in the beginning of the article. It seemed she wuz [sic] robbed, China's He Kexin getting the gold, Liukin left with silver. China's Yang Yilin got the bronze, the bars results adding to the host nation's sensational gymnastics performance at these Games -- the great haul of China. Wuz ...

Phelps is a beast: 6 events, 6 golds,
6 world records. Pure domination. But can he swim
faster than Chad Ocho Cinco ? Gym-Nastia is Liukin good: Nastia Liukin had a near flawless all-around final to secure gold. Shawn Johnson came up big when it mattered, scoring 15.025 on the floor to nab the silver by a mere 0.075 points. The real question is, are male gymnasts the gayest straight men in ...
Lest we judge her entire life on the events of last night, here is a video of some lighter times, in which Alicia does what she does best: inflict pain upon others. [H/T: The Big Lead ]

I was talking to my sister yesterday as
she returned from a trip to Vancouver, and she
discloses that on her flight out, she sat next to none other than Juli Boeheim and her three kids, who were flying out to Beijing. The conversation went something ...
Yesterday's battle during the Women's Gymnastics Team Final started out as epic as advertised. The United States and China were paired up on rotations, so it seemed like no one else was even competing. With three stuck landings, the US pulled out to an early lead on vault after the first rotation. Moving along to the uneven bars, we had solid, though unspectacular performances by Chellsie ...

Lots of things happened last night and I will touch upon each. Phelps won his third gold in three tries by setting a new world record in the 200m freestyle. Natalie Cog-lin took home bronze in the 100m Backstroke. The US Men took Bronze in the gymnastics team final behind very strong showing by Jonathan Horton and Justin Spring, and a clutch pommel horse performance by Sasha Artemev. David ...

They royally screwed up the US National Anthem during the presentation of the gold medal to Michael Phelps for the 400 IM, in which he crushed the world record by about a full second and finished 3 seconds ahead of the field, which is pretty much like winning by 70 in basketball. They started the song at about "[O say] can", played the intro verse three times (instead of twice), and then cut ...

I guess the hot thing to do is to list the games for a certain team that your readers might be interested in. Since my main source of traffic is coming from image hits for Team China basketball, I said to myself, "why not?" I'll give a little preview of each match too, so that you can see how wrong I am. A lot of people are writing China off as not being able to make it out of a tough Grou B ...

Today marks the 20th anniversary of the first night game to be played at Wrigley Field , making them the last franchise to install lights into their stadium. The Cubs celebrated this fact by playing a day game for the third game in a row.

The Los Angeles Lakers have signed Shaun Livingston clone, Sun Yue, to a two-year contract (I assume at the minimum salary). Only problem I see with this is that I've watched Sun Yue for the last 2 or 3 years and he sucks. Also, the real Shaun Livingston is currently without a job, and is unlikely to sign with the Clippers now that they picked up Jason Williams. It'd be interesting to see ...

Kobe said that he would take 50 million dollars a year to play for a team like Milan. Earl Boykins just became the highest paid Italian League player ever at 3.5 million dollars per year. Do the math. According to Alexander Chernykh , writer for the Russian sports site sports.ru, the only teams with money are the two Greek Teams (Panathinaikos, Olympiakos) and the Russian teams (BC Khimki, ...

One is from MLB.com, one is from ESPN.com and both are from this year. Can you find the difference?
But the bigger stat is this: 69 pitches through 6 frames, 6-9 ground outs-fly outs. Yeah, I'm back to being 13 years old.

The 2008-2009 schedule was announced just now and
here is how the teams rank in terms of
national exposure. The teams will be listed in order of how many times they appear on ABC, ESPN, ESPN2, and TNT. I'm not counting NBATV because it isn't universally available.
Olympic action has officially kicked off as the first games of the Women's Soccer Preliminary Round were played this morning. Nothing special to see here except that perennial powerhouse Norway and USA faced off and the Scandanavians pulled out a 2-0 victory over Hope Solo, Heather Mitts, and a bunch of other girls that I have never heard of. I guess Christie Rampone has been the US Captain ...

Interesting note after the big Manny-to-LA trade of last week: Every single offensive player involved has homered with their new clubs. Jason Bay is off to an auspicious start, with a line of .364/.533/.818, and 2 runs in each of his three games played. Manny has been even hotter, batting .615 with 2 homers and multiple hits in every game. And then there are Andy LaRoche and Brandon Moss, who ...
