Stephen Colbert Gives The Mets Their Propers

Fri, 16 Jan 2009 11:49:10 +0000

I've yet to hear anyone speak out in favor of that Citi Field patch, but there it is anyway. Maybe it has photos that cast David Wright in an unflattering position? Colbert is the latest to dump on the "Dominoes patch."

Playboy Playmate Kendra Wilkinson appeared Tuesday on E!'s Chelsea Lately show and while she didn't 'fess up to "porking" Eagles wide receiver Hank Baskett, she did readily admit to getting her Skype on with number 84.

The Only Good Mets Fan is One in Cuffs

Tue, 22 Apr 2008 04:13:39 +0000

Pictures from one of a few Mets-Phils fan brawls at Citizens Bank Park this weekend. I have it on good authority that the Mets fans were drunk and out of control, and the Phillies fans only reacted only in self defense, and nobly at that, saving children and restoring order.

[Video] Alexander Ovechkin Isn't Fond of Flyers Fans

Sat, 19 Apr 2008 14:49:21 +0000

After setting up a goal, it appears Ovie screams toward the fans: "Eff You!" Some debate over whether it's "You" or "Yeah" but we're pretty sure it's the former. Understandable in any case.

Washington Post to Flyers: Cease and Desist

Fri, 18 Apr 2008 03:30:53 +0000

The Post put an end to the Flyers plans of handing out copies of Mike Wise's ridiculous column to fans as they entered the Wachovia Center. Wise had opined that the Flyers and their fans were barbaric, and the Flyers wanted to show their gratitude for what they considered to be exemplary fan support, but the Post wuddn't having it.

The Flyers blew another third period lead, and now trail the Capitals 1-0. Winger Patrick Thoresen was drilled with a shot, in the balls, and is some serious pain. Video of the shot that may require removal of the testicle. Scary stuff...
