In a bit of news today that should have the NHL’s league office taking notice, Pierre LeBrun of ESPN is reporting that Swedish second-division team AIK Stockholm have agreed to join Russia’s Kontinental Hockey League starting in 2010-11. "The acceptance of the invitation by AIK ...

Not satisfied with the blatantly overlooked hand ball that put France through to the World Cup over Ireland? Well, here, thanks to Puck Daddy we have some similarly atrocious refereeing in an NHL game. Last night in Detroit the Red Wings lost to Dallas 3-1, but things could have been different ...

Here we’ve got a clip of a bizarre little baseball instructional video that comes via Deadspin , who suggest that you “watch this, then go check your water supply for drugs,” which is almost as funny as a couple of their commenters, who quipped, “Wait, where were Tim & Eric in that clip?” ...

Obligatory Sports Babe This morning, let’s go with glamour model Lucy Pinder, who does not qualify here by being a WAG—because, as far as Wikipedia’s concerned, she’s not—but because she “is an ambassador for Kick 4 Life, a charity that uses football to fight poverty and disease in ...

Here we’ve got—via Sports Crackle Pop —a charming little video of Walcott, Fabregas, Arshavin and Sagna taking anonymously to the streets of London to solicit charity donations, dressed in full costume as various furry animals. Hard to tell what’s real and what’s staged, except, of course, for ...

Obligatory Sports Babe This morning we’ll go with a random hot girl wearing an NFL jersey, via COED . Though, I must be honest, too many of the girls in the gallery are those weird too-fake perfect in some ways, but not even really that hot kind of girls that I’m pretty sure only redneck ...
