Men Behaving Badly
Women Like Sports —
... Matt Leinart was photographed partying in his own backyard with several young women. Apparently it still surprises some that a person in his position would do this. In fact, I would guess any other single, attractive young man with a boatload of money would engage in similar antics. ...
Matt Leinart, Alex Smith Pics at TheDirty.com: The Future of Sports Media?
FanHouse —
... It's unclear why someone publishing these photos would object to ESPN's commenting on them. As David Sarno of the Los Angeles Times wrote about The Dirty, "It's hard to take that civics lesson from this particular set of guys." ...
2008 Team Capsules: Arizona Cardinals

... with an 8-8 mark last season. The running game struggles contributed to another unsuccessful attempt at post-season glory for Arizona. James only averaged 3.8 yards per tote and really could not bolster the rush game for the second consecutive season with the Cards. Injuries to Anquan Boldin and Warner for periods did not help matters on offense either. What about the Matt Leinart injury you ask? Warner outplayed him and the team seemed to respond under his leadership. Maybe that’s because of Leinart’s off-season workout regimen? Yet again, Arizona’s defense ...

Is ESPN Coming Around to Embracing Impact of Blogs?
Hugging Harold Reynolds —
... The piece below was run on Sports Center yesterday (I believe re-broadcast from OTL). ESPN not only centered the premise for the piece on TheDirty's photos in referencing Matt Leinart's perceived partying ways, but showed the very pictures that were published on the site - the very kind of low-brow "journalism" Bissinger and his colleagues decry. Yet, they have no qualms splashing the pictures on their worldwide flagship program. ...
Who’s Not Now? No. 2 Roger Clemens vs. No. 15 Matt Leinart

... sure didn’t let being born cross-eyed stand in his way. He had one hell of a career with USC, leading the Trojans to a national championship in 2003, a BCS national championship in 2004, and an appearance in the 2005 BCS national championship game. He was the Heisman winner in 2005, too. After being the man in the pocket for the Arizona Cardinals in his rookie season, Leinart basically lost his starting job to Kurk Warner because of some bad plays, a fractured collar bone and probably too much beer bonging with the underage broads.

The magic on this demo tape? It apparently belongs to Barry Zito
Big League Stew —
Well, we might as well shut down the Internet for the day, because I'm pretty sure we're going to see any baseball posts better than this one. According to The Dirty, those fine purveyors of Matt Leinart photos, Giants pitcher Barry Zito recently recorded a demo song in presumable hopes of having another talent to pair with his jeans-modeling career. The tape was leaked to The Dirty and you can now try to listen to it here. (Extra points for reaching the end).
