HBO’s latest doco on an NFL team in training camp commences August 12. This year, the Cincinnati Bengals have agreed to the net’s preseason prying eyes, joining past participants Baltimore, Dallas (twice) and Kansas City.

Embattled Bengals coach Marvin Lewis apparently pushed to be featured […]

• Ines Sainz of TV Azteca: A sports reporter we can all get behind.

• Phil Jackson makes Jonah Hill feel super bad during game: “Next time you move around during a play, I’ll kick you the f*** out of here!”
• Ron Artest reenacts the Malice In The Palace for aspiring Chinese pop star Shin Shin. […]

More photos have surfaced of Matthew Stafford’s recent party activities as he passed the time waiting for Lions training camp. Awesome. Never have such naughty boat shenanigans come to light since a certain Vikings Lake Minnetonka cruise; or of course Gary Hart’s 1984 Presidential campaign.

Last week we brought you the horror of Stafford’s crooked-hat, Dancin’ […]

Recall, if you will, the shame with which Jose Rijo resigned his post with the Washington Nationals just months ago. His Dominican Republic baseball academy collapsed amid allegations of skimming money from prospects’ contracts and a $1.4 million contract given to a player with a forged identity. Three word, summary: It. was. bad.

A Dallas Cowboys fan who fired five rounds from a shotgun into a van containing Philadelphia Eagles fans in December was today found guilty of first- and second-degree assault, although he was acquitted of an attempted murder charge.

Meet 28-year old Damian Alexander, who had arranged to meet for a fistfight with an Eagles fan, Shane […]

Not the least of those […]

Putting a college football coach in front of a microphone is usually like handing a bear a calculator and asking him to do your taxes. Nothing good can come of that. Hawaii head coach Greg McMackin proved that once again this morning at the WAC football media preview in Salt Lake City, when he let […]

Much has been written about the unique personality of USC Trojans head coach Pete Carroll. We know he takes walks through the ghetto in the middle of the night, hands out his cell phone number to random people on the street, and believes in the power of Twitter and positive thinking in order to WIN […]

It would be nice if Gina Carano could face an opponent with strong fighting skills who could also share her same sex appeal. Because as far as gals that can kick your ass, Gina’s quite a looker (despite Kit Cope’s criticisms). Well, we may have finally found Gina’s match in porn star Stormy Daniels.

As Rick […]

Not even back on the football field, and already Michael Vick is winning awards. In a poll I can get behind (although I don’t completely agree with the choices), Vick was voted overwhelmingly as the most hated man in sports. Data was collected by E-Poll, an Encino, Calif.-based marketing research firm, and reported by FORBES […]
