Donovan McNabb is very anti-sister kissing

Mon, 17 Nov 2008 14:50:38 +1900

I just want to know if McNabb was being a wiseass or if he really did not know that NFL regular season games could end in a tie, in which case he is dumber than Brock Berlin.

Vote or Die: GTB-style

Tue, 4 Nov 2008 15:33:56 +1900

Races the G:TB staff may be covering throughout the day: Starbucks vs. Dunkin' Donuts, PC vs. Mac, Kobe vs. LeBron, John Candy vs. Chris Farley, Rocco vs. Buttman, boxers vs. briefs, and my personal favorite: “The Happening” vs. “Dennis Takes a Dump”

Finding T.J. Houshmandzadeh His Two Wins

Thu, 30 Oct 2008 14:26:22 +2000

For some odd reason, T.J. Whosyourdaddy felt the need this week to guarantee that his 0-8 Bengals will not go winless this year. In fact, in what can only be describe as sadly comical, he guaranteed the Bungles would win TWO games this year.

Kim Jong Il hates long haired soccer players

Tue, 21 Oct 2008 13:21:03 +2000

Strange, but true...especially since half the world thinks he's dead.

Behold, FrankenFan

Thu, 2 Oct 2008 13:11:36 +2000

In the great tradition of Dr. Frankenstein, or at least of Gene Wilder’s characterization, G:TB’s crack team of scientists spent almost 15 minutes in the laboratory (luh-borr-a-torry) to sew together the most egregiously annoying and grating characteristics of Fannicus Americanus...

Yao Ming...Binge Drinker?

Tue, 30 Sep 2008 20:12:41 +2000

When most people think of Yao Ming, I doubt that they'd consider him a wild and crazy guy, to borrow a popular phrase from Whitney's childhood. Its just not something that meshes well with the picture of a large Chinese man who wears a crew cut and speaks little to no English publicly.

Putting a bow on an atrocious season

Mon, 29 Sep 2008 20:19:54 +2000

The Brothers Mottram did an excellent job of tracking the Washington Nationals on their way to an epic 100 loss 2008 season, and though we here at G:TB have shied away from the Nats this year, I felt today was the appropriate time to also kick this hapless franchise while it's down.

My Favorite Stat Lines of the Steroid Era

Thu, 18 Sep 2008 18:49:16 +2000

As we move forward from the age of Sosa, McGwire, Andro, BALCO, HGH, PED, OPP, et al, I thought it would be amusing to revisit some of the "juicier" (get it?) stat lines from the 1990's and the early naughts.

Bunning Still Throwing 'Em High and Tight

Tue, 9 Sep 2008 19:35:26 +2000

Political affiliations aside, I love it when politicians speak honestly. It's so refreshing that it just makes my day. For that reason, we're shedding some light on the recent diatribe issued by Jim Bunning, a Republican Senator and ex-MLB pitcher.

Free Todd Bouman

Thu, 4 Sep 2008 12:20:31 +2000

With the NFL season nearly upon us, I've been moved to address an ongoing injustice that has gone unnoticed within the league for over a decade now. Of course, I'm speaking of the unjust oppression a once-in-a lifetime talent like Todd Bouman.

One Ping (Gold Medal) Only

Wed, 20 Aug 2008 13:44:11 +2000

After 12 days of Olympic competition, there are 21 countries which have earned but one medal. Of those 21, only 5 have garnered the elusive gold as their lone medal. So, of course, we'll highlight them and ignore the loser silver and bronze solo medalists. That's the breaks. I imagine for the five below, if the Olympics ended today, they'd be national heroes?

Official G:TB Olympics Recap - Female Weightlifting

Tue, 19 Aug 2008 17:36:17 +2000

An Olympic Performance to Remember: Now that we're a couple days past the magic, we can sit back and try to gauge the magnificence of the performance - the raw power, the dominance over the competition, the ability to step up and bring the goods. Yes folks, we are here to praise Liu "Muscles" Chunhong for her ballsy gold medal winning performance in women's weightlifting.

Bow to your new LLWS Overlord

Mon, 18 Aug 2008 14:03:26 +2000

With all apologies to Joakim Soria, there's a new "Mexicutioner" in town, and he goes by the name of Jesus Sauceda. And, oh yeah, he's only 13 years old. And completely freakin' dominant.

The only real threats to this "Redeem Team"

Thu, 14 Aug 2008 11:25:02 +2000

...because, for better or worse, that's what this competition comes down to...America and everybody else. Now I'm not saying that I think the USA is a lock to win the gold, far from it actually, just that Team USA is on a completely different level in terms of popularity, press and worldwide fame than all of their counterparts, possibly combined.

Official G:TB Olympics Preview - Team Handball

Fri, 8 Aug 2008 20:19:48 +2000

Gheorghe: The Blog loves it some Olympics. Our Romanian heritage means we're required to dig on gymnastics, but frankly, we celebrate the entire catalogue. We're suckers for the pomp, pageantry, and - most importantly - the competition. We'll be glued to the coverage from beginning to end.

Official G:TB Olympics Preview - Female Weightlifting

Fri, 8 Aug 2008 20:17:09 +2000

On the Eve of the Eve of the Summer Olympics' Opening Ceremony, G:TB would like to shed light on an oft over-looked nook of the Summer Olympics landscape: The 69 kg weight class of female weightlifters. We focus on this weight class because it is the most popular class (as defined by me).

Official G:TB Olympics Idiocy

Fri, 8 Aug 2008 20:06:30 +2000

It was twenty years ago today . . . or at least this year. On September 17, 1988, just under the wire to where it'd technically be the Autumn Olympics, the '88 Summer Olympics kicked off in Seoul, South Korea. Seoul was not a city extensively familiar to the Western audience, but it was certainly one ripe for puns galore.
