April 6, 2009In the first game of the season, the Texas Rangers have already set season highs in hits, homeruns, and extra base hits for a single game. 15, 2, and 6 respectively.
Behind 13-year veteran-rookie pitcher Kevin Milwood, the Rangers defeated the Cleveland Indians 9-1 in front of a sellout crowd of almost 50,000 fans. That’s more [...]
San Antonio Spurs guard Manu Ginobili’s right ankle has taken a turn for the worse. The Spurs said tests showed Ginobili had an increased narrow edema and stress fracture in his right distal fibula. I have no clue what that means; however, it will keep him out for the rest of the season, including the [...]
April 4, 2009The most selfish player to ever play in the NBA, Allen Iverson, is out for the remainder of the season for the Detroit Pistons with a so-called ‘hurt back.’
Earlier this week Iverson whined about coming off the bench and that he’d rather retire than become a team player. Throughout Iverson’s career it has always been [...]
How do you heal a torn medial collateral ligament in your knee? Some would toss a Playmate on their shoulders at a pajamas and lingerie party after the Playboy Golf Finals. Others would jump over velvet ropes. A few may cut the rug on a checkered dance floor. Los Angeles Lakers forward Andrew Bynum would [...]
April 1, 2009Detroit Pistons forward Rasheed Wallace was suspended for one game for committing too many technical fouls. He picked up his 16th technical foul last night against Cleveland. Cleveland has won 13 straight games, so I am assuming Detroit lost to Cleveland last night? The game Sheed will miss already happened, which was tonight, so make [...]
March 31, 2009The title of this post might sound a little kinky, but it only means that John Calipari is leaving Memphis to become the head coach of the Kentucky Wildcats.
Calipari will receive an eight-year, $31.65 million deal plus incentives, according to the university, making him the highest-paid coach in college basketball. The school also will pay [...]
John Clayton of ESPN.com is reporting that the Denver Broncos will stop playing their little gay games with quarterback Jay Cutler and make him available via trade.
After being unable to get Cutler to call them back over the last 10 days, Broncos owner Pat Bowlen said today, “We will begin discussions with other teams in [...]
The NBA slapped Mavericks owner Mark Cuban with a $25,000 fine Sunday for publicly criticizing the officials after Denver’s 103-101 win over Dallas.
One of the rules states:
Bill Romanowski Rule: If a player is fined by the team or league he plays for, that player shall receive points based on the dollar amount of the fine [...]
Marcus Vick’s brother Michael Vick was released from Federal prison this morning and is headed to his home state of Virginia where he will be serving the rest of his term at his residence.
On Vick’s agenda next is to star in his own bankruptcy hearing, scheduled for April 2nd.
Vick is also expected to report to training camp [...]
Washington Wizards shoot-first guard Gilbert Arenas is scheduled to return on Saturday against the Detroit Pistons after missing every single game this season.
Gilbert has been battling a left-knee injury for the past couple seasons and has undergone three surgeries in an 18-month span to try to correct the problem. Nothing has been said about fixing [...]
Ty Lawson who has been battling an injury with his toe that kept him out of the ACC tournament is feeling much better and expected to playagainst Gonzaga in their sweet-sixteen match-up Friday night.
The point guard was a major factor in UNC’s second round victory over LSU scoring 23 points with six assists and providing [...]
Stemming from a 2005 bar fight, loser-thug Allen Iverson must infuse the pockets of Marlin Godfrey with $260,ooo, a federal appeals court ruled on Tuesday. Godfrey and another patron, David Anthony Kittrell, sued Iverson for $20 million, but the jury decided not to award punitive damages and only compensate Godfrey $10,000 for his medical bills [...]
March 23, 2009During the first stage of a five-day bike race, possible former-steroid-user Lance Armstrong has fallen off his bike and injured his collarbone.
The Texan, who is currently racing with the Asana team, was taken by ambulance to the hospital.
Reports are not indicating that Matthew McConaughey took his shirt off so Lance could use it to wrap [...]
I agree with anyone that says, “Television sucks these days. There’s nothing good on.” Yes, besides sports and mabye 30 Rock, that statement is true. However, the following Stephen Colbert clip is probably the best television I have ever seen. Michael Steele’s rap is cut to perfection. Enjoy the amazingness:

According to what I heard on 610WIP on the way home tonight (and what’s being reported on ESPN), former Philadelphia Eagles tight end L. J. Smith has signed a one-year deal worth $1.5 million with the Baltimore Ravens.
L. J. Smith is best known for fumbling in the Super Bowl, missing blocks, not knowing what play [...]
It doesn’t matter who is on Julius Peppers’ magical little list of teams he wants to play for. If the Cleveland Cavaliers were on that list, would everyone believe he would be suiting up with Lebron James come playoff time? Hell no. That’s why everyone needs to calm down about Julius Peppers going to New [...]
March 17, 2009Stephen Jackson picked up his 16th technical foul of the season during the Golden State Warriors’ 154-131 loss to the Phoenix Suns on Sunday. The number 16 is the magical figure that gets you suspended for one game in the NBA. Therefore, for having Stephen Jackson on their roster, Sheriff Joe Arpaio’s Inmates scored 1 [...]
March 17, 2009As expected, the Monkey Turds and Touchdown Turdy Vardell collected more points stemming from the Matt Jones arrest. Matt Jones went to jail over the weekend and also was kicked off the Jacksonville Jaguars for being too much of a turd. Both Fantasy Turd teams have the Jacksonville Jaguars on their roster, so they each [...]
March 16, 2009Baghdad is generally a real safe place to have fun and play sports. Even the country of Iraq for the most part. So, you’ll be very surprised to hear that an Iraqi soccer player was shot dead during an amateur match over this past weekend.
Police Maj. Muthanna Khalid says a striker from the Buhairat amateur team [...]

It’s being reported on 1010 XL radio in Jacksonville that Philadelphia Eagles free agent Tra Thomas has agreed to terms with the Jacksonville Jaguars.
This should come to no surprise because the Eagles are completely stacked at the offensive tackle position. At one side you have a 350 pound man coming off a knee injury and [...]

March 4, 2009ESPN.com’s Michael Smith is reporting that after a three-year stay in Dallas the Cowboys have released wide receiver Terrell Owens.
At this point of his career, Terrell’s childish behavior on and off the field completely overshadows his enormous talents. There aren’t too many wide receivers in the NFL that will get cut after catching 69 balls [...]
Linebacker Ray Lewis will end his career as a Baltimore Raven after signing a three-year deal worth almost $22 million (it will be formalized in the next couple of weeks).
“From beginning to end as a Raven. … Wow! To be with the same team with the same fans for an entire career, that doesn’t happen [...]
Here is the current entry (which is quite amusing) on wikipedia about your beloved Philadelphia Eagles president Joe Banner:
Joe “nickel bags” Banner(born February 13, 1953) is a President/Chief Operating Officer for the Philadelphia Eagles. He also let Brian Dawkins, unarguably the team’s best player for the past decade as well as an irreplaceable locker room leader, [...]

As per Adam Schefter:
By the end of the week, QB Kurt Warner likely will return to Arizona, according to league sources. It’s where he wants to be, where the Cardinals want him [...]
March 4, 2009Conflicting reports are surfacing about the status of the Manny Ramirez-Los Angeles Dodgers negotiations.
Early Tuesday afternoon Enrique Rojas from ESPNdeportes.com reported that an agreement had been reached between both sides. However, agent Scott Boras told ESPN.com’s Jerry Crasnick “while there is communication there is no deal in place.”
ESPN.com’s Jason Stark then told ESPN’s Steve Levy, [...]
This has been out since the beginning of February, but I thought I would post it to generate some “what’s their record going to be” talks.
In 2009, the Eagles play the NFC East teams twice (home and away), the AFC West, and the NFC South. For the last two remaining slots, they picked up San [...]
The Denver Nuggets have suspended Carmelo Anthony for one game for an “in-game transgression” Sunday against Indiana.
Vice president of player personnel Rex Chapman didn’t elaborate on what Anthony did and reporters sitting courtside didn’t see anything, but Chapman had this to say, “There is a code of conduct that we take very seriously, especially from [...]
