Obviously, Greg Norman’s current stance as the leader of the British Open through 54 holes tells us two things: I need to be up at 6 AM Pacific tomorrow to catch the impending collapse live (despite the fact that Norman has won this tournament twice, he’s still living down the ‘96 Masters) and Chris Evert […]

Last month, we happened to mention New England Patriots’ O-lineman Nick Kaczur helping authorities bust his dealer after getting arrested with prescription pain-killers he didn’t have an Rx for. The BOSTON GLOBE has now gotten ahold of the police report, and it’s a bit of a doozy: Kaczur had 200 Canadian-made Oxycontin pills on him […]

Green Bay Packers cornerback Charles Woodson is apparently a full-on oenophile, and started his own wine label “TwentyFour” while with the Oakland Raiders. The NFL, apparently, doesn’t want him taking too large a profile in selling the fruits of his company’s labor. (Hat tip: DEADSPIN.)

The DETROIT FREE PRESS covered its release and tasting at an […]

We’re all more than familiar with MLB’s love of lefties, whether on the mound or at the plate, and now, thanks to NEWSWEEK, there’s now some official scientific proof backing the concept that lefties are just plain better at baseball (well, at least as far as hitting goes.)

The magazine’s web site interviews an aerospace engineer […]

Magazine subscriptions, candy, Girl Scout cookies. These are several things that someone might attempt to sell to you by going door to door. However, in the world of Division I-AA football (or, if you must, the Football Championship Subdivision), college football season tickets are a possibility, particularly if you happen to be in a neighborhood […]

Just a day before deciding to ink a free agent contract with the New Orleans Hornets, forward James Posey was with Eddie House, signing copies of the Celtics’ championship DVD. “Awkward” doesn’t begin to describe that particular situation.

The BOSTON GLOBE’S Celtics blog takes some notes from the AP, and let’s just say that the […]

I’m tingling at the thought of being able to watch a century of futility whenever I please on the satellite dish. This is the possibility brought to us today by the CHICAGO TRIBUNE, whose corporate owners are spinning the possibility of a 24/7 TV network dedicated to the North Siders to potential buyers.

(Offseason programming: “The […]

Easy, breezy, beautiful, and out the door. Oklahoma women’s hoops guard Jenna Plumley is accused of trying to shoplift some makeup from a Norman-area Wal-Mart, according to the AP (via the DURANT DAILY DEMOCRAT).

When I think “Always Low Prices,” I know they don’t really mean free — but let’s face it, everything’s getting more […]

In the wake of Jason Giambi’s facial follicle-aided resurgence this season and the resulting failed All-Star campaign the Yankees organized for him (at least it’s facial hair aiding him rather than a PED or two, I think), Detroit Tigers closer Todd Jones, writing in the SPORTING NEWS, wants to make sure no one forgets about […]

During last night’s 15-inning endurance test at Yankee Stadium, there appeared to be a chance that, at the very least, Red Sox skipper Terry Francona was going to have to figure out which position player he would have had to turn to. The NEW YORK TIMES reports that players such as Evan Longoria and […]
