• A group of cheerleaders at a Texas high school sock it to a teammate by smearing human feces inside her locker.

• Does the Denver Broncos’ Brandon Marshall like to beat women?
• Every time a Laker visits Colorado, sex accusations are soon to follow.

Hey, you know what a colossal disaster the Yankee Stadium Experiment has been so far? Anyone feel like making things much, much worse? New York Assemblymen Richard Brodsky and James Brennan, yes, your hands are up, please go ahead.

(”The records are in here somewhere, we swear…”)
Brodsky and Brennan have issued subpoenas for the Yankees’ internal […]

With American sports franchises hemorrhaging money left and right, one might wonder why our leagues haven’t embraced one of the easiest revenue streams available: selling the front of their jerseys. Really, the argument that it’s “crass commercialism” that messes with tradition doesn’t really fly anymore, considering that every other part of the pro sports viewing […]

Stephen Strasburg is the best pitcher in the upcoming draft. He’d have been the best in the last five drafts. Or 10. Or… when was Nolan Ryan drafted? Okay, that’s an exaggeration. Maybe.

(”I came here to do two things: kick ass and tip my cap. And I’m all out of tipping my cap.”)
So you’d think […]

It’s been over a year since we first discussed windbaggy sportscaster Joe Buck’s attempts to develop a pilot for a talk show/variety show. Sports fans mostly rolled their eyes, wondering how the NFL on FOX’s self-appointed moral authority could possibly pull off the trick of being remotely funny or entertaining.

If there’s one person I trust to be an arbiter on classy behavior and good sportsmanship, it’s Jay Mariotti. Our nation’s foremost user of hair products proved that most dramatically in August of last year when he resigned from the Chicago Sun-Times, daggering everyone at the paper on his way out, smearing verbal feces on […]

Over the weekend, Auburn held a bit of a crazy bash for several recruits. It was called “Big Cat Weekend,” even though there were no actual tigers, lions, panthers, pumas, ocelots, mountain lions, jaguars, or this guy in attendance. Nonetheless, the recruits had a blast being celebrated, as you can see here.

(The NCAA might make […]

The sports prank enjoys a long, sordid history as a way to get revenge on a teammate or rival. The pranks are usually harmless, resulting in perhaps a bit of embarrassment for the prankee. Sometimes, they’re hilarious. Other times, they’re a bit mean. Either way, they’re usually harmless but for the loss of a little […]

So much for objectivity. When the Los Angeles Lakers & Orlando Magic meet for Game 1 of the NBA Finals Thursday night, ABC/ESPN analyst Jeff Van Gundy isn’t bashful about who he hopes brings home the Larry O’Brien Trophy: his brother Stan.

Jeff admits that he’ll be rooting for Stan’s Magic men to make quick work […]

There are two situations in which it’s acceptable to send death threats to a college football player: 1) After he has actually killed somebody; 2) there is no second option. Well, fine–yes, we see you down in Alabama, and fine, the Iron Bowl merits it every now and then. But only if the dogs don’t […]
