Brown Bag it, Baby
Last year when this news first broke, it was Henry Abbott’s interview at True Hoop that delineated how good Tim Donaghy was at fixing games. To refresh your memory, 15 out of 15 times the point spread moved by at least 1.5 points in a …
Considering Andy North actually won a U.S. Open or two, his word holds slightly more credence than the standard analyst. Not really, but his formulas for predicting a winner are pretty cool. With that in mind, I would like to present the formula Andy …
As I said the other day, sometimes words are not necessary. What is that saying about pictures anyway? Photo via Spencer Hall’s trusty musket over at The Sporting Blog and Friends of the Program.
Every sport has its problems. Baseball has the taint of steroids and other performance enhancing drugs (viagra, anyone?), football has PEDs as well, not to mention cheating coaches, and basketball has referees shaving points. The problem for the …
LBS and MLB FanHouse favorite, Elijah Dukes, had another magnificent moment on Tuesday night. After clubbing a 9th inning double against the Pirates, he was driven in by Lasting Milledge’s go-ahead two-run HR which eventually won the game. The …
Nothing can get a player focused on the upcoming season quite like planning a wedding. Not to mention dealing with a wife and kids at home. With that in mind, I present the latest words from Kim Kardassian on her relationship status with Reggie Bush …
A big topic over the last month of the season that spilled into the offseason was the Giants and their relationship with tight end Jeremy Shockey. Shockey broke his leg in the third to last game, one which the Giants lost to the Redskins. The Giants …
There is something I never will be an expert on: the world of performance enhancing drugs. Just not my thing. As of now, Viagra isn’t an illegal drug according to MLB — what do they care what dudes are doing to enhance their peckers? But …
Sometimes words are not needed. Enjoy. That’s what happens when you come to LA and root for the other team. Got that? And you thought LA fans were soft? Uhhhhhh!!!!! That’s what we’re all about. Not really. I guess those were some …
I didn’t quite have the chance to post this up after Sunday’s game, but since the Reds are still playing at the time of this publishing, I feel I can induct Joey Votto into the club. Reds first baseman Joey Votto joined the LBS Golden …
Another significant playoff game gone by, another critical performance by the referees. I didn’t have the sound on while watching the game so I have no idea what was and wasn’t said by the commentary team, but there was no question that …
I may have been harsh on Jon Lester in the past, but I’m actually here to defend the guy. When the suspensions for the Coco Crisp/James Shields brawl came down, there was one I couldn’t quite understand: Jon Lester, five games. Where the …
I actually was beginning to feel sorry for Cedric Benson given the way he responded to the arrest for drunken boating not long ago. After hearing the comments his mother and some of the witnesses made, I was buying Benson’s side of the story. …
I had a great debate with Peter Brown on Sporting News Radio Sunday night. The whole conversation started because Rafael Nadal kicked Roger Federer’s ass in the French Open finals, only giving up four games in three sets for his 4th straight …
I know it’s not the actual Garden anymore, but for the sake of simplicity, it’s the freaking Boston Garden. End of story. Anyway, Chris Bosh is one funny mofo as we’ve already shown here on the site. Apparently the crew at Jay …
I pretty much had this up and ready to go for the last few days, I was just waiting to sub in a few details like the score she won by. Pretty much everything broke perfectly for Ana Ivanovic to win the French Open title this year, her first major …
