Tobias Funke: Actor, Analrapist, Vikings Head Coach
Brad Childress has become an easy target this offseason. He’s bald, he’s a pushover and he’s a pretty awful head coach. But he has one thing going for him. Childress resembles Arrested Development’s Tobias Funke to a tee. I figured my piss-poor Photoshop skills...
Five Rejected MLB Trade Deadline Moves
The trade deadline came and went and everyone’s coveted prize, Roy Halladay, didn’t go anywhere. Nevertheless, it was still a pretty active trade period, as guys like Jake Peavy, Matt Holliday and Cliff Lee all changed addresses. But Sportable recently found out about...
Jake Peavy to the Good Guys? Daggum!
Boy I tell ya, I came into the Cell today as jubilent as could be. Couldn’t wait to talk to Kenny about his GREAT trade this afternoon for Cy Young winner Jake Peavy. Lemme tell ya folks, when ya get an opportunity to get a pitcher as quality as Peavy, you just gotta do it. [...]

A Quick Rundown of the Past Week
I’ve been lagging on updating Sportable in the absence of Ryan this past week, so here’s my attempt to hit a grand slam and cover most of the topics that happened this week in one big swoop.

Sportable Reviews: NCAA Football 10
Football season is right around the corner, meaning it’s time for the annual editions of EA Sports’ NCAA Football and Madden. And while Madden’s offseason hype has me thinking it’ll be a fantastic game, NCAA did little to get the gaming community excited. Fresh...

Worshipping of Manny Makes Me Sick
The media has been in a flurry since Manny Ramirez’s return to the Dodgers lineup. It seems like even when Manny was stabbing his teammates in the back in Boston or making bonehead plays in the field, he could do no wrong. Now that he’s returned from a 50 game suspension...

Free At Last, Free At Last!
Damn, what a month 24 days. It seems like just yesterday, my life was in shambles. Sentenced to rot in a cell during some of the nicest weather we’ll see all year, you kiddin’ me? Here I am trying to get ready for another 5-11 season with the Browns and my workouts get...
Don’t buy that vuvuzela stock yet…
We’ve gotten a heavy dose of soccer and South Africa the last couple of weeks in the Confederations Cup. While the “dress rehearsal” for next summer’s World Cup went off without a hitch, the future is now looking a little shaky. South African construction workers...

Just Another Hitler Reference
In the nearly three years Sportable has been around, we have written a whopping two articles pertaining to Formula 1 Racing. But the antics of F1 boss Bernie Ecclestone has given us a reason to write article #3. Ecclestone, F1’s commercial rights holder, recently praised Adolf...

Pistons, Dumars Continue Tumultuous Year
Just hours before the start of NBA free agency, the Detroit Pistons continued the rapid overhaul of what was one of the league’s most stable franchises. After trading Chauncey Billups for a useless Allen Iverson, the Pistons fell to the 8th seed in the Eastern Conference and...
What can we take from the Confederations Cup?
Yesterday’s gut-wrenching loss by the United States in the Confederations Cup final was perfectly symbolic of the team’s performance in the tournament. There were spells of fearless, inspired play followed by long periods of poor touches and flat-footed defending. The...
Hey, Toronto. The Bills Don’t Owe You Anything.
It seems like one of the biggest concerns nowadays with each of the four major sports in America is the globalization of sport. Despite the NFL’s failed attempts at globalizing the game with crap such as NFL Europe and the annual slopfest at Wembley Stadium, Goodell and crew...

Awesome move here by the 76ers’ front office...
Vince Carter, Ricky Rubio and other NBA Ramblings

I Shot a 63, damnit! Listen to me!
Hello. How about that ride in? I guess that’s why they call it the U.S. Open. Allow me to introduce myself. I’m Johnny Miller, announcer for NBC Sports. You might remember me from such masterpieces as the 1973 U.S. Open, where I shot a final round 63 to steal the championship...
