Bill Simmons on Greg Oden

| 2 comments
I'll be the first to admit a personal bias against the Sports Guy, partly because of his allegiance to Boston but also because of his creepy obsession with TV that's better left to teenage girls. That having been blogged, his most recent article on Greg Oden is terrific writing...

Did former fake-wrestler and current UFC fighter Brock Lesnar take steroids? I think so. Other people think so. Brock Lesnar says no, and he's sick of the allegations.

That's what it's like for Philadelphia to win the World Series. The first capital city of the United States. One of the few cities fortunate enough to enjoy a pro franchise baseball, football, basketball and hockey. Twenty-five years without a title, 100 seasons. Until last...
Bud Selig is a joke

Hard for the Yard
| Comments
He's a talking robot with a track record of wrecking more than he fixes. Maybe it's unfair to categorically apply the same labels to David Stern and Roger Goodell also, but those guys are equally part of the machine. Yeah, I get it. Mainstream professional sports is big business...

Warning: The video below is a repeat. Caveat: I don't care. Payoff: Watching the Philly Cheese Boy in action. I don't know where my boy Romano (aka Philly Cheese Boy) is right now, but I imagine it involves drinking, eating, setting stuff on fire, and getting ready to watch...

Patrick Cote vs. Anderson Silva Disappointing outcome. Cote crumbled, as expected, but not at the hands or feet of Spider Silva. An old injury reared its ugly head. Boo. Josh Koscheck vs. Thiago Alves Thiago looked impressive in victory. Unanimous decision. GSP thinks Alves may be...

EliteXC is dead. Dana White is not. And for good reason. Dana White is awesome. EliteXC was not.
FACT: Nobody is funnier than Dwayne Bowe

At the start of each video blog, Dwayne Bowe has a tendency to pretend like the camera isn't there, or he doesn't know it's there, and then -- bam! -- whaddyaknow, D-Bo's on camera. I compiled all four of his recent video blogs. Pretty funny.

I don't understand why Vladimir Putin has goons do his dirty work. With his ruthless judo skills, the former KGB agent and current prime minister of Russia could defeat most middle-aged women without much help. Unless said woman had recently purchased, "Let's Learn Judo...

EliteXC's head of fight operations, Jeremy Lappen: "They're talking about doing it and we're interested in the fight. It's a storyline everyone can relate to, Cain versus Abel." That right there is the problem with EliteXC. If I gave a damn about storylines...

Monta Ellis has been suspended for 30 games by the Golden State Warriors. Translation: $3 million in lost salary. I expected something in the $250,000 to $500,000 range, definitely no more than a million. Team president Robert Rowell, your franchise has sucked pretty much forever....
