Pitt cracks top ten, Big East looking strong in AP Poll. Click on picture to read more
Can somebody give Jaime Dixon some love for crying out loud! The guy is one helluva basketball coach. With five teams in the top 12, the Big East is pretty tough. UNC is on the cusp of falling out of the Top 25 for the first time in a long time. Should we give BYU and Jimmer respect? Not yet…

Jared Allen is an easy target. The guy is a freak show. He’s a talented football player, and equally talented psycho. The guy is just off the chain. I would like to find one person who is surprised that Allen can get his nut off by killing animals.

Following an FA cup defeat a drunk Liverpool fan decides to throw cones without his pants on. I don’t know man. You just don’t see that here in the states too often do you….
It looks like St. Louis Cardinals fans are willing to forgive and forget.
ST. LOUIS — In what will surely go down as one of the more memorable days in the history of the Cardinals Care Winter Warm-Up, Mark McGwire emerged to a rock-concert atmosphere, received a hero’s welcome from still-adoring fans, then faced a chaotic news conference in a dark, cramped hotel hallway — all in the space of less than an hour.
McGwire’s no saint, but he probably doesn’t deserve all the harsh criticism he’s gotten from the self-righteous media during all of this. His apology was loaded with bullshit, but still – these journalists are mostly jealous scumbags who look to find any reason to destroy those more talented than they are.
But as far as the fans go, this is just further proof that if you’re awesome at sports, it doesn’t matter what you do and you’ll still be loved. Broke a home run record because of steroids? No worries. Beat your wife’s ass like Jason Kidd did? Standing ovation first game back from suspension. Cheat on your wife without a condom and contract HIV? As long as you admit it, you’re a national fucking hero. Murder someone? Appear on the cover of Madden.
Maybe these journalists are onto something.

I’m not real familiar with the Mexican Leagues (except for the fact that Alfredo Amezaga used to shit all over it), but is it like the WWE? I mean, do they stage fights and have lots of shit-talking to pump up the fans? Because that’s pretty much the only way to explain an ex-professional athlete throwing a punch at someone from less than a foot away and missing that badly.
Totally fixed, right?
There’s been a lot of talk lately about Brett Favre throwing a late TD pass yesterday against the Vikings to “run up the score.” Cowboys Keith Brooking is essentially being a real pansy about all of this. Brooking was noticeably annoying and essentially went after Favre and jabbed at other Vikings coaches and players
I thought it was totally classless and disrespectful. This is the NFL, that’s not what this is about. I don’t think there’s a place for that … I was looking for [Vikings coach Brad] Childress. I didn’t think it was right, but they’ve got to see us next year.”
What a tool. Seriously. And I’m pissed off that the phrase “running up the score” is even used at all. We’re talking about a sport where the defense’s job is to hit the other teams quarterback as hard as is humanly possible in order to debilitate their confidence. We’re talking about a sport where guys play with broken ankles, arms, legs, heads, you name it.
We’re talking about a sport where guys inject themselves with God knows what just to keep their joints and sockets in place. And then we use terms like “classy” and “sportsmanship.” I understand where those terms have a place in the game but Jesus Christ running up the scoreboard should not be associated with those terms.
If I were a coach? I’d want to score as much as possible and ram it down the teams face. I’d want to make it known that my team will do anything possible to make sure the other teams know how superior we are. Don’t let up. Don’t let up ever. Keep bringing the pain and make that team remember it. There’s no sympathy in football. If you are competitive, which you have to be in sport, then let the other team know it.
“Running up the Score.” I think it’s a joke.
Oh and P.S. I still don’t like Favre. Only because I think he’s the biggest steroid user in football today and will never get in trouble for it (not that many NFL players get in trouble for it, but that’s another story).
I have mixed feelings about women getting into fights. Sometimes it’s interesting and exciting, other times it’s the antithesis of seeing a hot naked woman. Saturday afternoon things got a little heated before a Georgetown vs. Louisville women’s basketball game. I have a tough time with women grunting and chest pounding during games to being with, so needless to say I didn’t run for my tissues and lubricant.
This was no cat fight. Were talking 6’0″ chicks that could probably bang on your average guy if need be. The Washington Post broke the story shortly after the game and indicated there is video evidence out there that has yet to be released. During pre-game warm-ups, a Georgetown player tripped a Louisville player jogging around the court. Words were exchanged, punches (yes, real punches) followed, all hell broke loose. The Big East is currently reviewing the incident.
Big, athletic chicks throwing punches cursing at each other….. now that’s hot.
I’m sure that deadbeat scumbag Fireman Ed is real happy this morning, no doubt circle-jerking with all his Jets fans friends and celebrating the Jets’ upset victory over the Chargers from yesterday. But really, anyone who watched the game knows that the Jets should be embarrassed to call that a win, and they’re going to get demolished in Indy. San Diego did absolutely everything they could to lose that game. It’s as if they were trying to lose. Gates is dropping passes with 30 yards of running room in front of him, and all of a sudden the best kicker in the NFL can’t make a chip shot. Three missed field goals (but I’ll give him a pass on the 57-yarder) and dumb, self-destructing penalties (just like a few years ago against New England) and it was clear the Chargers beat themselves – which is the only way the Jets were going to win.
