Dwight Howard has become quite the joker this season. We’ve always known Superman had a sense of humor, but he’s even funnier now that he has made a habit of personally ragging on other athletes. First, Dwight tooled on Derek Anderson …
Thanks to Roger Goodell, Brett Favre can have his rah-rah exit from football on his own terms. If he decides to not pull a Brett Favre and fake retirement once again, we fully expect Sunday’s game against the Lions to be Favre’s last in …
1. New England Patriots (13-2, –) Securing home-field advantage was obviously very important to the Patriots, as they looked as good as they have all year against the Bills. They forced seven turnovers and committed none and have become …
Floyd Mayweather Jr. has been getting into so much trouble lately you would think Manny Pacquiao’s people are setting him up to make him look bad. First there was this nonsense, and most recently it was this ridiculous incident. And now we have …

Smush Parker. Yes, that Smush Parker. The one who had a bout with a parking attendant and the same one who called out Kobe Bryant may actually be a savior for a Chinese basketball team. The Beijing Ducks are looking at Smush to replace fellow …
The Orlando Magic recently acquired Gilbert Arenas, among other players, in hopes of building a strong team that can win a championship as soon as possible. It took Orlando’s new core a little time to get going, but they seem to be off and …
