Tale Of The Tape: Andre Smith vs. The Giant Stingray

Friday, February 27th, 2009

This past week has been all about the numbers. With the passing of the NFL's annual scouting combine, measurements and numbers were all the rage. But the biggest story to come out of Indianapolis had nothing to do with 40 times or bench reps, it was Andre Smith's weight and ...

Word to the Wise: Megan Fox is Now Single

Thursday, February 26th, 2009

Mark it down gentlemen (and ladies perhaps).... ...The fantastic, 22-year old Megan Fox and Brian Austin Green have ended their engagement. What else even needs to be said?

At Least We’re Not DePaul

Thursday, February 26th, 2009

Indiana's basketball season continues falling to depths that have only been previously measured in the Marianas Trench, with the latest indignity coming on Wednesday night with the Hoosiers' first home loss to Northwestern in 41 years. In fact, the Wildcats had never beaten IU at Assembly Hall, with the last ...

A.J. Price Almost Sent Jerel McNeal Off on Crutches Too

Thursday, February 26th, 2009

By the time you read this post you will have seen A.J. Price's crossover against Jerel McNeal -- likely many times. But it bears repeating: That is a sick, sick move and Price even had time to look down at McNeal's fallen person before burying the jumper. And keep in mind ...

Linda McMahon Piledrives Her Way Onto Board of Education

Thursday, February 26th, 2009

I would venture a guess that about 90 percent of males at one point watched professional wrestling. You know what I mean: Stone Cold Steve Austin, Triple H, Chris Jericho, The Rock before he made terrible movies. The lord over the whole WWF domain is, of course, Vince McMahon and his ...

Screw You And Your Wedded Bliss

Wednesday, February 25th, 2009

Adriana Lima actually went through with it and eloped with Marko Jaric on Valentine's Day weekend. What the fuck does this guy have going for him that we can't see? With everything he has working against him, he better have the greatest personality on the planet. Seriously, the only reason ...

Fake Controversy! Fake Controversy!

Wednesday, February 25th, 2009

Well, it's not so much fake as contrived by the media, but whatever. On the heels of their otherwise nondescript 0-0 draw between Manchester United and Internazionale, some enterprising soccer writers decided to make a big deal out of ManU manager Sir Alex Ferguson and Inter manager/Special One Jose (joe-say) Mourinho not ...

It’s Time to Get Some New Forms of Communication in Bloomington

Wednesday, February 25th, 2009

Raise your hand if you thought the Indiana University basketball program would get through this season without even the slightest of NCAA rules violations. Anyone? Anyone? Bueller? Well, the Indianapolis Star reported Tuesday that Indiana turned in its own secondary violation for an extra phone call during one week to incoming recruit Bawa Muniru in late ...

The Nail In The Coffin

Tuesday, February 24th, 2009

OK, OK, Phillips and I may have written about this subject a few dozen times this offseason, but hey it beats exercising. Our anger has been worked out and now we're (kind of) in the process of moving on. I've taken up Premier League Soccer Football again while Phillips...well, I ...

Mediocrity is the Game: Big West Conference Basketball

Tuesday, February 24th, 2009

Every year there's a team (or two) that finds its way into the NCAA tournament that we have no idea of what to make of. Most of the time these teams are nondescript mid-majors that won their conference tournament and get the national stage all to themselves in Dayton for the ...
