It’s always the spectacle, isn’t it?  Wrecks of all kinds; trains, cars, awful makeup.  We just love that stuff, don’t we?  Well, here’s your chance to take in yet another eyeful of “what-the-hell is that?”  Check out this video of a male chinese cheerleader in full-on female cheerleader attire leading his ladies on the hardwood [...]

Well, she’s probably not his girlfriend anymore.  But sometimes that’s just what happens when you hold your man up for 5 grand.  After an alleged domestic incident, Shelley Anne David decided she wouldn’t press charges against Tennessee Titans receiver Damian Williams in exchange for $5,000.  Now pay attention ladies.  This is what is warmly referred [...]

It’s been said over and over again.  And the US’s 4-2 loss to Mexico in the Gold Cup Finals just drives the point home once again.  Soccer is not America’s game.  However, it was more than just a faltering US team that allowed Mexico to comeback and take the Gold Cup that reminded the rest [...]

“She played unbelievable today,” Williams said. “I [...]

Attention Wal-Mart greeters.  Apparently, there are other better paying employment opportunities out there if you don’t mind traveling several months out of the year or working with a bunch of self-indulged douchebags who play a game for a living.  Just ask 80-year-old Jack McKeon, who for the second time in a decade, will be managing [...]

The MLB’s international signing period starts July 2.  Few fans really think about it or even know it exists, but they certainly feel its presence on their favorite team’s roster.  It is that time of year when teams are allowed to scour the world for big-league talent, often at rock-bottom prices.  And the number of [...]

Normally, I’m more than happy to watch the St. Louis Cardinals lose their way into baseball oblivion.  It wouldn’t bother me in the least to see the Red Birds go on a 20+ loss bender.  Their fans can be just that insufferable.  But the truth is these guys are still too talented to lose for [...]

Something seems off about this year’s US Gold Cup Team.  After losing to Panama 2-1 for the first time in nine meetings just a couple of days ago, the US just eeked past Guadeloupe to make it into the Gold Cup Quarterfinals.  Anything can happen in a tournament, of course.  But getting beat early only [...]
