Hideki Irabu wasn't a very good pitcher. He's
also not a very good drunk.
Archery + God = Greatness? Perhaps not.

Everything you need to know about college football

It looks like Curt Schilling is going to
retire. There is a God.
Remember the good 'ol days, when USA basketball went ahead and blew everybody out, leaving little doubt as to which country had the best basketball team in the world? Eh, neither do we. In fact, many of us were prepubescent or close to it when the original Dream Team trounced people in 1992. Quite a collection of talent, a lot like this year's men's team. Then again, it's clear now, after a ...

Disclaimer: This post is sure to get rambling, but there is something very important to be said here. To hell with C.C. Sabathia. That's right, to hell with him. Every time I turn on ESPN there's some guy like Tim Kurkjian telling me how the Brewers acquiring Sabathia might be the best trade deadline deal EVER. You know what, maybe. Just maybe. But there was Randy Johnson from Seattle to ...

I hope Timbaland is working on a Super
Bowl Shuffle remix, because the Chicago Bears have officially
entrusted their offense into the hands of one Kyle Raymond Orton. Now the only thing missing is an offensive line, running back and wide receivers. ...
Yeah yeah, we all love Michael Phelps, his
run to eight gold medals was magical, blah, blah,
blah. Everyone seems to just love the guy to no end. In fact, an ex of mine told me she'd give a year's salary just for the chance to eat ice cream off his ...
I gave in, not sure to whom, but I gave in nonetheless, and previewed the SEC first despite my allegiance to the Big Ten and my beloved Indiana Hoosiers. This year is going to be either a very interesting year for the Big Ten, or totally unwatchable from start to finish. Every team is a question mark heading into the season except Ohio State, who could be crippled by the overall awfulness of ...

This week marked the 14th anniversary of one
of the darkest moments in North American history --
the baseball strike that wiped out the end of the 1994 season and World Series. To this day, it is still difficult to fathom that there was -- or even ...
It's time for the 2008 college football season,
and that means it's time for me to start
(faux) gambling again! Risking your hard earned cash on pro sports is a sucker's bet, if you want the real money, you gamble on student-athletes who aren't ...

Horry Cow! The Spanish are racists? Who know?
Um, pretty much everyone on the other side of
the Atlantic Ocean. Spanish athletics have, pardon the word usage, a pretty large black-eye when it comes to tolerance. And that tradition continues.
For as long as I can remember I've made fun of the sport of wrestling. Yes, any wrestler could easily kick my ass. But no, I will not stop making fun of them. I mean, a spandex, one-piece uniform? Male-on-male groping? Clear showing of balls? It's all pretty gross to me. And now I am justified. Word out of Lincoln is two members of the Nebraska wrestling team were dismissed from the program ...

Yep, just terrible. I'm not going to get into the specifics or anything, but he's giving me a complex. So far the only thing I've really accomplished in life is being college educated. Yep, got the 'ol diploma from a fine public institution. Michael Phelps, on the other hand, is just about the same age and is arguably the greatest Olympic athlete of all time after collecting two more gold ...

Madden '09 hit store shelves today, and the
best part is we don't even have to wait
for the season to begin for the annual Madden Curse to come into effect. In a beautiful twist of irony, this year it is the game itself that's cursed rather than the player depicted on the cover as Brett Favre went from retired icon to member of the Jets. Of course, there is still ample opportunity for Brett ...
While the summer is great and all, it
kind of sucks on the sports front. Everything slows
down to a crawl with the lengthy basketball playoffs and the slow-paced trudge that are the dog days of the baseball season. But just around the bend is what ...

Before we completely close the door on this
year's PGA Championship, here are some loose ends worth
addressing: - I realize that Tiger Woods isn't around, but winning two majors in one year ought to be enough to make Padraig Harrington an even ...
1. Olympic observation 9:56 A.M. EST. The Polish
women's volleyball team is surprisingly hot. Much hotter than
the Russian and Italian contingent. 2. Ben and Jerry's Cinnamon Bun ice cream is God's load frozen. By far the best ice cream I've ever had. 3. Having the bulb blow on your 57-inch DLP when you have six HD Olympic channels is downright criminal. 4. As a Chicago Bears fan, I ...
Now that, friends, is a question worth attempting
to answer. Because as I watched the final holes
of the 90th PGA Championship, I wondered if there is another great player whom we talk about less. Think about it: If I were to ask you to name say, five of the top golfers in the world right now, who would you say? I bet the list would look something like this: Tiger Woods, Phil Mickelson, ...
These are the reasons I tune into ESPN.
That and the new, live version of Sporscenter debuting
this morning. As the Brett Favre-to-the-Packers-wait-no-to-the-Jets saga drags on and on, we find out that Brett is fitting in nicely with his new team. As poor Wendi Nix (seriously, does she not have anything better to do that n report about this kind of crap?) reports coach Eric Mangini's ...
