This is hardly an earth-shattering thing to say but we’re in favor of equality for all sports fans. That’s not to say that, say, Missouri Tigers fans are equally valid people as, say, Kansas Jayhawks fans - that’d be ludicrous. Rather, we think that anyone with the money for a ticket should be able to […]

One of fans’ biggest complaints about modern pro sports is the increasing disconnect between teams and fans. A generation (and more) ago, sports teams were family-run businesses whose operations were more a labor of love than an investment opportunity.  It wasn’t necessarily a better time - the “good ol” days rarely were - but it […]

The Jeremy Mayfield drug suspension saga is getting so melodramatic and ridiculous that maybe it’s time we add the NASCAR driver/suspected meth head to our poll of sports celebrities we should ignore. After all, perhaps it’s not wise to give this much attention to the rambling conspiracy theories of an allegedly drug-addled mind. But then […]

Any player coming to Eagles training camp for the first time should know one thing: Andy Reid is trying to kill you. Well, maybe not, and it’s probably foolish to compare what NFL players go through at Philadelphia’s two-week camp at Lehigh to what Bear Bryant’s “Junction Boys” endured at Texas A&M.

Former LSU tailback and Heisman Trophy winner Billy Cannon was inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame yesterday, some 26 years after he was originally selected for enshrinement. The delay happened because months after voted into the Hall of Fame in 1983, he was arrested and pleaded guilty to federal counterfeiting charges. He eventually […]

For a brief moment this afternoon, I saw pigs starting to fly outside of my window. I could swear that one of them was cruising along at about four to five feet off of the ground at one point, and almost looked like it was going to really move. But then, like Icarus, it came […]

Anyone who takes his Twitter pic at SoCal.-based In-n-Out Burger is a G.:

(Still doesn’t make up for his final round Music Man pants)
As for us Kansas Citians (Watson’s hometown), we’re currently crying in our Boulevards at Kelly’s in Westport after the gack on 18.

When the USF football team gets together and discusses what they did during their summer vacation, Maikon Bonani will have a whopper of a story to tell - one that might even get the actual football players to speak with a kicker. That’s because, as the TAMPA TRIBUNE reports, Bonani survived a 35-foot fall from […]

Things are finally looking up for Kyle Kendrick. You may remember the Phillies pitcher as the victim of a team-wide prank where he was told he was being traded to Japan. And also you might recall how Kendrick admitted to being a big Backstreet Boys fan. Well, it’s all turning around for Kyle now, buddy […]

Australian motocross racer Cam Sinclair remains hospitalized after a jump attempt during an event in Spain went terribly awry.

BITTEN & BOUND reports that during the Red Bull X-Fighters event in Madrid this weekend, Sinclair was trying to pull off a double backflip. Unfortunately, he under rotated, and his body smashed into the ramp instead of […]
