I've tried to stay away from this Pacman Jones story -- it's been done just about everywhere, and there's nothing really new I can add. Although I've been working on making it rain -- I use coins, though, because...
These have been floating around the Internet the last couple of days -- my God are they awful. I'm not of the weak-stomach variety; there are few things that I just can't watch. I'm the guy, after all, who watched...
The strange sight of Reggie Miller wearing a uniform that's not of the Pacer variety seems a little blasphemous, but if he was going to play anywhere but Indiana, Dallas is the right place. Anything to get Mark Cuban...
I've waited awhile for the whole Nets trade situation to play out before I decided to weigh in on it. Now, since they decided to go with no trade, I can say that it's a good move. Jason Kidd...
Somehow this small meaningless story has gotten around. I read a blurb in the Star-Ledger this morning. Then later on, the NewsHouse linked this Newsday article. The quick gist is that the Mets new left-fielder, Moises Alou, keeps fit...
As the mothership has pointed out in their new (shiny) MLB FanHouse, Bernie Williams hasn't, and probably won't, report for spring training. Bernie Williams rejected the Yankees' offer of a minor league contract and will wait to see if...
I've been ignoring the ridiculousness of the Tim Hardaway situation, because it's been everywhere. You don't need another person weighing in on the matter. Everyone agrees that Hardaway's a fool, and that ESPN set up John Amaechi's big coming...
The headline about says it all. No doubt you've heard of the Reid siblings, sons of Eagles head coach Andy, and their brushes-in with the law recently. Well, Garrett Reid, who was found with heroin after a traffic accident...
A.J. Smith is a shrewd GM, so when he fired Marty Schottenheimer, like, seven minutes ago, I thought that he had a plan. An ace up his sleeve, you could say. I thought about Ron Rivera, or Mike Singletary,...
It looks like Scottie Pippen is on the comeback trail. Pippen, 41, hasn't played since February 2004, when a left knee injury forced him to retire. But he told reporters Thursday that he wants to return, hopefully to a...
Kerry Wood is to getting injured as the Kennedys are to dying. There's an SAT analogy for you. Cubs pitcher Kerry Wood hasn't pitched a full season since the Steve Bartman season in 2003. It's a shame too because...
Are you listening, Jerry Jones? How about you, Steinbrenner? This is what happens when an owner assumes that he is the equal of a GM or coach (or worse, better) in terms of how to run a team. You...
Hey, looks like I got a chance to use that title after all. The Chargers actually surprised me when they fired Marty Schottenheimer, and that alone is a shock. We all assumed he was going to get canned. In...
Gilbert Arenas is on a mission -- a revenge mission. Why is he so pissed? Is it because he's named Gilbert? Maybe, but that's not what this is all about. This all about Arenas being cut from Team USA...
Last night, I witnessed greatness. I've actually been watching it for the last 13 years, and I don't understand why the nation isn't making a bigger deal of it. Actually, I do understand -- it's hockey. Still, Martin Brodeur...
Wade Phillips is a ridiculous choice for the head coach of the Cowboys. I think we can all agree on that. But based on reactions around the nation, it seems as if people are taking Jerry Jones to task...
John Amaechi’s publicist announced on Wednesday that his client, former NBA player John Amaechi, “is coming out of the closet as a gay man.” As a fan of professional basketball and as a human being of quality morals I...
I've had an inkling that Rex Grossman was being a tad paranoid about the way he's been treated in Chicago over the last year. You know, I thought that most of the negativity directed towards Grossman was coming from...
OK, so they've blown with him too. But not as much. I'm a Nets fan, but unfortunately, while a team is suffering so bad -- really, they're sucking it up -- you really can't blog about them on a...
Tyrus Thomas is not interested in basketball for the game. And he certainly isn't going to particpate in any extra-curricular activities for the NB--oh, you'll pay him? He's fine with that, then. Asked if he were excited about becoming the...
Rex Grossman has had it with you ignorant people questioning his ability to be a successful NFL quarterback. You hear me? He's HAD IT! And he's so fed up that he might refuse to sign with the Bears before...
A lot of people are taking offense to the above advertisement, which, it should be noted again, cost Snickers $2.5M. The peanutty company decided to pull the four-pronged campaign after complaints from just about everyone claim that the advertisements...
The popular opinion is in on Super Bowl XLI, and it's not good. Some liken it to the Tampa/Oakland disaster a few years ago. Most agree that this was the worst Super Bowl in the last seven years, at...
It's a little shortsighted to blame Bill Parcells' retirement on Tony Romo. This is the man who had to deal with Quincy Carter, Chad Hutchinson, Drew Henson, Vinny Testaverde, and Drew Bledsoe. Compared to that motley crew, Tony Romo...
This is a perfect example of why I hate All Star games. They, like any major award show, are all about politicking and not the actual play. This is nothing groundbreaking, I know, but I'm going to say it...
The Maryland Nighthawks of the American Basketball Association unveiled the latest addition to their roster this week, a man the team is touting as the tallest in the history of professional basketball. 7-foot-9 Sun Ming Ming was introduced to...
My initial reaction upon reading that Miami police wanted to talk to Chad Johnson about a murder was, perhaps like yours, shock. Johnson has become the league's most affable character, a guy who has managed to be both the...
