They say that animals can sense an impending natural disaster — dogs, for instance, will detect earthquakes and run for cover minutes before they hit. So it’s no wonder that this kitty, finding itself at a Kansas City Royals game, panicked and sprinted across the field in confusion and terror.

I’m confident that I speak for most of the men when I say that I’ll be rooting feverishly for Shaquille O’Neal to beat Olympic gold medalists Misty May-Treanor and Kerri Walsh in their upcoming reality show beach volleyball showdown. Oh yes, it’s an imperative.

Shaq will team with Olympic gold medalist Todd Rogers to take on […]

We’ve always liked Canada. It’s always reminded us a little like a colder, parallel-universe version of Minnesota, a place of which we have many fond childhood memories. It’s almost like being in the USA, but as Vincent Vega once said of Europe, it’s “the little things” that are different. Their football (or “football” as it’s […]
