When you walk into a fancy bar, you
ask for fancy drinks, stuff like "I'll take a
Midori Colada" or "Caramel Apple Martini" or something classy like that. When you go into a sports bar to watch your daily dose of athleticism you should be able to ask for a drink with a sports themed name. We here at the Deuce love drinking and sports, so we're happy to provide you with a guide.
BEIJING _ There's a former NBA player who
had a 6.2 career scoring average broadcasting from the
Olympics. Ordinarily, that wouldn't mean much. But that player's name is John Amaechi, who released the book "Man in the Middle,'' last year, becoming ...
Former Miami Heat guard Tim Hardaway said on
a radio show Wednesday afternoon that he would not
want a gay player on his team. "You know, I hate gay people, so I let it be known," Hardaway said. "I don't like gay people and I don't like to be around...
You wouldn't know it, but Charles Oakley is
a jack of all trades. He sets hard picks,
clotheslines opposing players, and he'll sell his left arm before he gives up a rebound. Now he's going write a book . YES. "I'm not pulling any punches, true stories. It ain't one of those Charles Barkley fake books, it's a Charles Oakley book," Oakley said. "It's not an O.J. book, it's an ...
The San Diego Padres ended the first half
of the season in style on July 8, as
they held Gay Pride Night at Petco Park on the same night as their Floppy Hat Giveaway for kids. Of course, Christian groups were thrilled and hilarity ensued.
It's not Nike. Or Adidas. Or Reebok...
Tim Hardaway has some difficult new issues he
must face. Poor guy.
Upon hearing the recent news of John Amaechi
coming upon some tensions at the Olympics , no
pun intended, I decided to bring back an old radio clip from when the news of his sexuality broke. The guys at Right in my Mouth Radio seemed to have a pretty good idea that Amaechi was a little femme. Make sure to check out the one liner 2 minutes and 10 seconds in, it is devastating.

Yesterday it seemed like it was yet another
chance to spread unverified rumors about an NBA player
maybe being gay, and I wanted no part of it. But now that it's real news that former NBA center John Amaechi is...
By LZ Granderson Page 2 I am so
over gay people. Specifically, John Amaechi. Not him personally
-- I hear he's a delightful guy -- but gay people like him. You know, the athlete who comes out after retiring, writes a tell-all, and then hears how...
I can ' t really offer any significant
impressions of the Amaechi story yet, because I think
the main event here is not the announcement, but the reaction. Thus far, comments from current NBAers have been somewhat tepid, if fair. Most have been of the...
"For real? He's gay for real? Nowadays it's
proven that people can live double lives. I watch
a lot of TV, so I see a lot of sick perverted stuff about married men running around with gay guys and all types of foolishness." -Steven...
This John Amaechi story simply refuses to die.
It's like Michael Myers! Amaechi appeared on Andrew Siciliano's
radio show recently, and when Siciliano asked him why he didn't get along with head coach Jerry Sloan when he played for the Jazz, the Brit...
In the current Sports Illustrated (after the part
in the letters where Matt Ufford of the blog
With Leather gets a nice apology for a lifted John Amaechi quote ), Chris Ballard checks in with an extended look at the continuing evolution of Yao Ming . First there's a little anecdote about Yao's first off-season, in 2003, before he understood what it would take for him to become a major force ...
Almost embarrassed to say I giggled.
After news came out this week that Vivid
Entertainment will release a Jimi Hendrix sex tape (link
is SFW), I started wondering which old sports stars are most likely to have a grainy sex tape discovered. Most Likely Joe Namath - Come on, between ...
”Stripped down to a pair of shorts for
testing, he was a physical specimen—measuring 6 feet 3
1/2 , 225 pounds, with a six-pack that might make magazine models envious.” Wait please don’t leave the site. This is not the ...
Last week, a Chicago Sun-Times "blog" mentioned that
a former NBA player was going to come out
of the closet on Valentine's Day , because that's a day for love. (Or desperate loneliness and regret. Pick your poison.) We'd heard this rumor, and some...
