Brown Bag it, Baby
Come Tuesday, Gilbert Arenas will either be locked up by the Wizards for six years at max money or near max money, or he’ll be on his way to China for an Adidas promotional tour sans contract. The issue for the Wizards, as I see it, is that …
Seeing as that Shaq promptly had his honorary deputy badges yanked following his foul-mouthed rap on Kobe, I think you can say the response to the video has not been great. And even if he tries to justify it saying that it’s just freestyle rap, …
I doubted Billy Beane back in January after he traded Haren and Swisher saying the A’s had conceded the season. I learned my lesson. So when I read that Beane has become an avid soccer fan, which apparently has been ongoing for a few years, I …
We’ve all heard about players getting pretty crazy in the bullpen. They’re just sitting out there for inning on end, in need of entertainment just like the rest of us. Sometimes they’ll look at naked pictures of girls, other times …
I don’t know about you, but when it comes down to a trip to Vegas for either the National Fantasy Baseball Championship draft or the AVN Weekend, I’m going with the ladies all the way. And that’s coming from someone who loves …
Two years ago they made the mistake of shipping out Brandon Roy before he had ever played a game for them. They got back Randy Foye. Exactly. So when the Timberwolves took O.J. Mayo with the third pick, as we predicted here at LBS, I wasn’t too …
One of the highlights of the 2007 NBA draft — aside from the superstar that is Yi coming into the league — was the Stephen A. Smith draft heckling video that sprouted. I think these dudes call themselves the Stephen A. Smith Heckling …
I’m always a sucker for weird baseball injuries, so after seeing this up at SportsbyBrooks, there was no question I had to post it. Brandon Inge was placed on the DL with a strained oblique. How did it happen you ask? The Detroit Free Press …
First it was Sidney Ponson getting released by the Rangers for being disrespectful towards the team, or something like that. Ponson is a guy who once punched a judge on the beach in Aruba, so as you could imagine, the news was quite shocking to hear. …
Rain delays are always good for fun times in baseball. Over the weekend, it was Jonathan Papelbon and Manny Delcarmen doing a Milli Villi music video that brought entertainment to Fenway Park. Before that, it was the Texas Rangers using the tarp at …
I didn’t really mean to post this up, but when there’s a guy broadcasting on a large stage like Sunday Night Baseball on ESPN just filling the airwaves with nonsense, he needs to be called out for it. Such is the story with Joe Morgan, …
The one thing I didn’t think was possible has happened. Somehow, in this entire messy situation, Adam Jones — the biggest perpetrator of crimes within the last two years — was made into a victim by Don Imus. That is just maddening. …
I’ve posted about some pretty creepy incidents in the past, that’s for sure. Usually when these situations come up however, it’s a male coach responsible for the disgusting acts, not the other way around. That’s why when I …
Hey look, I was fascinated by Tiger Woods coming out of a porto potty. It just gets me every time. That dude really does those things just like us? Given the reaction people had over Tiger coming out of a restroom, it’s no surprise that the …
Apparently there were plenty of people incensed by Shaq’s battle of the mics impression. The man so proud to play a cop in his spare time that he even volunteered to protect and serve the Tempe community, suffered ultimate embarrassment by …
Typically I would have given the LBS Chris Henry update when the dude lost his home to foreclosure, but I figured I’d give him a break. Besides, I was kind of burnt out on foreclosures after Holyfield and Canseco struggled with their pads, not …
