Faker Fans Are Too Fickle With Kobe

I couldn’t think of a more appropriate tune for a primadonna, attention whore like Kobe to receive upon being introduced in his first game of the season — boos. And loud ones at that. The man has played with fan emotions all summer long, …

At Least Schilling Won’t Pull a Damon

The very day that his team held its World Series celebration parade in Boston, Curt Schilling decided to celebrate in the best way possible — by saying adios. The man dropped a phone call to the players union filing for free agency, and left a …

Jon Kitna Gets Creative on Halloween

Remember Joe Cullen? He’s the former Lions defensive line coach who got busted for going through a fast food drive through naked. (I empathize with his plight; I enter the kitchen naked when food is on my mind). Anyway, Jon Kitna must have been …

Manny Being More Friendly than Ever

I’m a big fan of Manny Ramirez. Something about a guy who averages about an RBI per game and stares at moonshot home runs he clubs while his team is trailing by like eighteen runs makes me laugh. But at times, as we all know, Manny can get …

Red Sox Are the Team of the Decade

In addition to river dancing in his spare time, Jonathan Papelbon also doubles as a proctologist. Hadn’t you heard? As for the Red Sox, though the Yankees have been more of a consistent winner in the decade, it is Boston, not the Yanks who have …

Trinity Plays Rugby, Not Football

I’m not sure if you caught this over the weekend, but it’s certainly one of those plays you will never forget. Check out the finish to the DIII match up between Trinity (TX) and Millsaps on Saturday: I’m seriously still wondering …

Hippo Found in Charger Coach’s Swimming Pool

This is just so off the wall, I’m not sure I can even believe it. I am truly, truly struggling with this story. How can a reputable reporter like Jay Glazer have taken the bait on a tale and featured it so prominently in his weekly column? …

Larry Fitzgerald hit with paternity suit from Raiderette [SPORTSbyBROOKS] New Subway commercial making fun of Ed Hochuli? [The Hater Nation] Jason Elam has a book coming out [100% Injury Rate] A wedding Carolina Panthers style [Deadspin] Bai Ling …

Will Sioux Sue North Dakota?

I saw this story somewhere and wanted to visit it for a moment. The University of North Dakota — with which you’re already well acquainted because of their powerhouse college football program — has settled a suit with the NCAA. The …

Week 8 NFL Picks

Now we’re rolling at 7-1-1 on the year after another 3-0 week. You know what that means? I’m due for an 0-3 week coming up! Just kidding. Here are this week’s picks, as shown at FanHouse: I never thought there would be a day that I …

Don’t **** With Zdeno Chara

I haven’t followed the Boston Bruins much since they got rid of my boy Joe Thornton, but I know they acquired Zdeno Chara and subsequently signed him to a free agent deal. And this much I know about Chara: he’s 6’9″, 251lbs, …

Ben Gordon Doubles as Doughnut Man

A few weeks ago, I presented you the story of Joakim Noah screwing up his doughnut duty as part of his rookie hazing with the Bulls. Ben Gordon was upset that Noah had been bringing Dunkin’ Donuts to the facility instead of Krispy Kreme. Well, …

Tony Romo Has a $30 Million Insurance Policy

Sometimes you hear about wacky insurance policies. Is it true J-Lo has her butt insured? Does Josh Beckett have a million dollar arm? Did Regina George take out a policy to cover her hair? Did Borat get his baby maker umm … you get the point. …

Afternoon Linkage: Save the Breasts

What is the NFL doing to help breast cancer? [Ladies …] I’ll trade you my World Series tickets for a boob job. Deal? [100% Injury Rate] Halle Berry is looking, shall we say, stacked? [Dlisted] The Red Sox know how to party after the ALCS …

Just Who Is Peter Gammons?

Sorry, I couldn’t resist. Seeing his mug on the TV constantly while watching World Series coverage prompted this. We knew the man was immortalized in the Baseball Hall of Fame, but did you also know he also holds a spot in your wallet? In case …

Patriots Aren’t the Only Sabotagers

I’ve been kind of fixated on all this Patriot sabotaging thing going on. The real reason is because New England is so good, I want to know how their legacy should be judged. The other day, I wondered why teams were only complaining about the …
