Pats’ DB Willie Andrews Arrested for Pointing Gun at Girlfriend’s Head

Troublemaker and, oh yeah, New England Patriots defensive back Willie Andrews—busted for pot right after the Super Bowl this year — has been charged with assault by means of a dangerous weapon and unlawful possession of a firearm after allegedly putting a gun to his girlfriend’s head.
Big shout out to Bacchus for the heads-up on news so exciting even […]

The World Records That Were (Swimming 400m)

Unlike poor Tyson Gay, whose world-record 100m sprint won’t count as a world record, Michael Phelps and Katie Hoff each set world records for 400 m individual medley swims in their respective Olympic trials.
Check out the highlights (30s) here:

VIDEO: The World Record That Wasn’t (100m Sprint)

This was a weekend of close-but-no-cigars and plot twists in sports.
First the Angels lost a no-hitter that wasn’t technically a no-hitter to the Dodgers.
Then, Tyson Gay (or Tyson Homosexual, according to one giggle-triggering faux pas by a Christian site) set a world record by sprinting 100m in 9.68 seconds during a qualifying round for the […]

VIDEO:”How to Lose a No Hitter,” By the LA Angels

A no-hitter isn’t an easy feat, as any MLB fan knows.
What’s harder than winning a game by keeping the other team hit-free? Why, losing a game despite keeping the other team hit-free.
Yeah, go ahead, scratch your head and mutter “WTF?” because the situation calls for both.
The LA Angels played city rival the LA Dodgers on Saturday […]

VIDEO: Venus Williams Hits 127 mph Serve at Wimbledon

We’re not huge fans of Venus and Serena Williams, mostly because their reluctance to credit an opponent after a loss irritates more than nails on a chalk board, small yappy dogs, and Maria Sharapova’s grunts combined.
Nevertheless, they are phenomenal tennis players and are paving the way for a possible all-Williams final at Wimbledon next week. So […]

That Explains All Those Wimbledon Upsets

We are huge tennis fans, such that if we were every inclined to light candles before an athlete, it would be Roger Federer. *cues a “Hallelujah!” from the choir*
This 8 to 5 concept called “work” has kept our sorry bottom from parking in front of the TV to watch Wimbledon all day (except for today), […]

VIDEO: Record 35-Foot Dive Into 12 Inches of Water

Darren Taylor of Colorado set a world record proving just how much some people crave that 15 minutes of fame for highest dive into a shallow body of water. Move over, Mark Spitz.
Giving new meaning to the expression “taking a long walk off a short pier”, Taylor did a man-that-had-to-hurt! plunge of 35 feet into 12 inches […]

VIDEO: John Daly Tees Off . . . Using Kid Rock’s Beer Can

Who knew that golfer John Daly was into recycling?
For example, watch (47s) how he uses Kid Rock’s beer can at the Buick Open Pro-Am. Once its purpose as refreshment container had been fulfilled, Daly recognized it’s potential as a golf tee. (Faithful reader Pat: Thanks for sending!).
Bonus: A commenter on YouTube made the keen, totally […]

Russian Olympic Team to Sharapova’s Flag-Bearing Offer: Thanks But No Thanks

What Maria wants, Maria doesn’t always get. (We aren’t even talking about a Wimbledon 2008 trophy, which her second-round loss renders null).
Russia put the kibosh on tennis player Maria Sharapova’s request to carry the flag during the opening ceremonies of the Beijing Olympics.
Gasp! Could it be that they think the Siberian-born 6′3″ blonde is too Americanized and […]
