Russian tennis player Nikolay Davydenko is being investigated for possibly fixing matches. There have already been players found to be betting on the sport. And coming off the Tim Donaghy scandal in the NBA, we now have John McEnroe who fears that …
After seeing how magnificently some of the recent winner performed in the pros, my confidence in the significance of the Heisman Trophy award certainly dwindled. The Heisman does not go to the Most Outsanding Player in college football. Nay, as my …
You’ve already seen my break down of the actual fight, but I just couldn’t resist that screen grab of Wayne Newton. Unbeknownst to me, Mark Cuban, Helio Castroneves, and Wayne Newton, were all in attendance Saturday night to support their …
The thought hadn’t even entered my mind until late Saturday evening, after Mayweather had already dominated Hatton. I was going for Hatton because I had picked him to win, figuring his combination of power, brawn, and desire would catch an …
I’ve said for quite some time that I wanted Karl Dorrell out as UCLA’s coach. I was happy to finally get my wish this week, but I still maintain that I want Dorrell to succeed, just elsewhere. Well, looks like Dorrell’s opportunity …
And he really wants you to know it. Check out this video from back in the day, as brought to us by Deuce of Davenport. Pretty funny stuff: If you ask me, I’d say he was just trying to put the moves on the chick interviewing him.
Three straight 2-1 weeks. You know what that means? I’m making you money. Every week. We’re now 14-9-1 on the year, a clip over 60% against the spread. For those of you a little new to the game, that’s like batting over .300 in …

OK, maybe it wasn’t exactly a heist, but it was a great signing by the LA club. After watching the Angels drop $90 mil on Torii Hunter, the Dodgers spent about a third the price on Andruw Jones, who is a superior player. Just when I thought …
I bring this news to you, only because I’ve never seen anything like it before. Texas Tech beat Lousiana Tech 86-31 on Wednesday night in Lubbock. The 31 points might not look like much to you, but I’ll tell you, they were hard earned. …
I guess there’s some sort of clause in his contract that gives him sick days. In case you missed it, the news of the night was that the Knicks actually won a game. When you look a little deeper, you see it’s because the Nets were without …
Some dude I’ve never even heard of went out on a limb yesterday and guaranteed a Steelers victory over the Patriots Sunday. And no, I’m not talking about some lame caller on a talk show making the claim. It was actually a Steelers player. …
No, this isn’t some elaborate quote of Fred Taylor running his mouth because the Jags are facing the Saints this week. It’s something small, that probably went unnoticed by most. In the latest issue of Sports Illustrated, Fred Taylor was …
Like I posted at FanHouse, the rumors are floating that Anna Kournikova might have gotten engaged to Enrique Iglesias. I for one, am not a fan of this news. Last we heard, Iglesias had no plans to marry or have kids with Kournikova (thank goodness). …
