Soon after the Jets released Chad Pennington to make way for Peter King’s personal lord and savior Brett Favre, wide receiver Laveranues Coles was characterized as being none too pleased with the move, primarily because he and Pennington were BFFs.

He eventually accepted that his friend wasn’t coming back, and has since moved on. Sort of. […]

I’ll admit to being skeptical when I heard Terrell Owens was headed to Dallas to revitalize his career. Again. The embattled wide receiver had basically burned every bridge on his way out of town in San Francisco and Philadelphia, and there was no way he wouldn’t eventually do the same with Jerry Jones‘ Cowboys.

Funny story: […]

If the whole “YOU MUST SPEAK ENGLISH” mandate from the LPGA was just a ruse to give the ladies some much-needed PR — even if it outraged everybody — if this keeps up, the tour could become relevant in the time it takes to hastily dial (213) 785-7675 into your cell phone.

That’s right, runway model […]

That light you see, that’s the end of the tunnel. And in two years, Shaquille Rashaun O’Neal will reach that metaphorical light, which will signify the end of his NBA career. Some might argue that Shaq quit playing a few season’s back, but we’re talking about officially retire — you know, filling out the […]

It’s a story as old as Hugh Hefner: Girl is blinded by the prospects of celebrity; Figures posing nude for a magazine will be “good for her career”; Parents are shocked & awed when they find out about it through a church acquaintance who stumbled upon it while walking the dog (or some such silliness).

But […]

We last heard from upstanding citizen and model teammate Andrew Giuliani back in July. After getting unceremoniously kicked off the Duke golf team for being anything but upstanding or model. Giuliani — yeah, that one — had his mommy publicly question the judgment of the golf coach, because, really, you’d have to be mental expel […]

This must all be very troubling to Cleveland sports fans: the Browns are finally relevant after years of striving just to be mediocre, the Cavaliers are annually one of the best teams in the East, and although two games under .500 at the moment, the Indians won the Central by eight games a season ago.

Yet […]

I suspect Ahmet Coskun, a German wheelchair basketballer competing in the Paralympics, occasionally feels self conscious about his predicament. It’s completely understandable because, well, people can be mean.

Which is why it seems perfectly reasonable that Coskun (which has to be German for “Costanza”), would take measures to combat hair loss. Being confined to a […]

Good to see Curt Schilling is keeping busy. The Red Sox pitcher took time out from doing absolutely nothing to call Boston radio station WEEI and force his thoughts on the Tom Brady injury down our throats. And why shouldn’t he? He was last relevant in 2004, after all.

Apparently, there was much celebration across the […]

The Vince Young saga has taken another turn, this time from mildly intriguing to sorta sad. Yesterday, we mentioned that the “Titans called the police after family members told the team that Young ‘abruptly’ left his home at around 7 p.m. without his cell phone, and that they were worried about his emotional well-being.” Young […]
