A PSA for Wrestling Fans

Since fellow blogger Mike H. made a Manny-friendly post that entertained us greatly, we decided to be neighborly and pass along some event info for WWE fans on Mike’s behalf.
No, he isn’t a wrestler. (We think). But he is behind the scenes for this event:
WWE will be holding a special WrestleMania® XXIV press conference at […]

Roller Derby Scares Us

If we’ve said it once, we’ve said it a thousand times. It’s great to be a New England sports fan.
Not only did the Red Sox win their Opening Day game in Japan, but roller derby is expanding in the traitor state that roots for the Yankees because it thinks it’s part of New York Connecticut. All we need […]

Broncos’ Brandon Marshall Versus the McDonald’s Wrapper

You know you’re having a bad day when a fast food bag roughs you up like nobody’s business. You know you’re having a really bad day when said rough-up results in a cast and stitches.
Brandon Marshall of the Denver Broncos crossed the path of one very ornery McDonald’s wrapper over the weekend. The WR slipped on […]

For Red Sox Fans Only

The only thing better than bragging about your favorite team is having a non-Beantown sports writer sing their praises, like this. (Hint: It wasn’t written by Hank Steinbrenner).

How Sweet It Is to be Ahead in the March Madness Pool

March Madness has been maddening indeed. 
Initially, those first- and second-round upsets had our panties in a twist (which is no mean feat for Victoria’s Secret thongs, we assure you). But then we realized that, um, everyone else expected Duke, Georgetown, and UCONN to make it to the Sweet Sixteen, too.
Thus, we’re happy to brag about the fact report […]

Tony Stewart Waxes Back for Charity

What is it with Tony Stewart and charitable acts involving bodily fluids and/or features rarely discussed in polite company?
First, the NASCAR driver auctioned off a sweaty towel. Scary thought, but scarier yet is the realization that someone actually paid for that and is showing off this newly acquired trophy to everyone they know.
Now it’s a back […]

Victoria Beckham, Eva Longoria, and a Little Tom Brady

Not only did the Easter Bunny bring us Cadbury Mini-Eggs (yay!) and tasty Polish babka (way to bake it, Ma!), but he also slipped in a little blog foddah. What a guy.
As you know, this is a sports blog but we also dish on celebrities connected to the sports world, like Victoria Beckham and Eva Longoria. Imagine […]

Video: Top 10 March Madness Buzzer Beaters

Given all the early round upsets (don’t worry, we’ll whine more about that later), it seems fitting to post this ESPN clip from of the Top 10 winning-shots-at-the-buzzer moments in NCAA tournament history. The video quality is so-so and the clip is a couple years old, but the intensity is 100% there.
Our favorite? Numero uno because we […]

The Williams Sisters Have a Daddy With a Big Mouth

Classy Richard Williams, proud papa of tennis stars Venus and Serena, has gotten in touch with his obnoxious side. Oh wait, that’s the only side he’s ever revealed publicly.
Perez Hilton reports that the head of the WTA, Larry Scott, is none too thrilled about Daddy Williams’ claims earlier this month that there is racism in women’s tennis. Scott […]

Roger Clemens Must Have a Voodoo Doll

How else do you explain the oddball—what the heck, we’ll call it this anyway—”accident” that befell his former trainer and steroid whistleblower Brian McNamee?
Yesterday afternoon McNamee passed out behind the wheel and drove his Lexus head-on into a bus. No one was seriously injured, so there’s a good chance the Clemens clan was seriously amused.
The curious subplot […]
