Ricky Williams Addicted to Talking About Pot

You know how we rag on celebrities *cough* Jessica Simpson *cough* who can’t stop talking about their boyfriends?
Well, starry-eyed starlets aren’t the only ones who babble about things that make them go hmm. Certain NFL players—say, let’s use Ricky Williams as a for instance—can keep up with the best of them. Except the object of affection isn’t a […]

R.I.P. Paul Newman

Is there anyone who didn’t love Paul Newman?
The philanthropic Oscar-winning actor and beloved family man, was also known to the sports world as a racecar enthusiast.

Michael Phelps, Man of Wax

The good news is, eight-time Olympic gold medal winner Michael Phelps is now famous enough to warrant his own wax likeness.
The bad news is, it isn’t by Madame Tussaud’s. The National Museum Wax Art Exhibition of Beijing has the honors. Luckily, we’re not wax museum snobs. (Our snobbery is currently limited to coffee, chocolate, vodka, tea, […]

PHOTOS: When the Red Sox Clinched the Playoffs, We Were There!

David Ortiz (”Big Papi“) at the plate. (As if the “at the plate” part wasn’t obvious)

Jonathan Papelbon’s “Hey, let’s have tea […]

5 Best Things About Being at the Game When the Red Sox Clinched a Playoff Berth

1. The Bee took 459 pictures from our spot in the 5th row. Seriously. 459. Hence his new nickname, Johnny Pap. (For paparazzi).
2. We made it on television . . . every time they used the right infield camera. Really! Yours truly is the blondie with the red jacket looking at, you know, not the game. […]

Gary Sheffield: Ready For Another Indians Fight

Gary Sheffield has a chip on his shoulder the size of Gisele Bundchen’s up-for-auction diamond ring. Or larger.
The Detroit Tigers slugger, who traded brawl-triggering punches with Cleveland Indians pitcher Fausto Carmona this weekend, isn’t about to forgive and forget. (Sheffield was suspended for 4 games; Carmona, 6).

Playboy Bunny Kendra Wilkinson: From Hugh Hefner to Hank Baskett?

Sorry, Hef. It’s survival of the fittest. An Eagle stole one of your Bunnies.
The word on the street—which is kind of an empty saying for us since we live on a cul-de-sac in a suburban condo development—is that Playboy Bunny Kendra Wilkinson is dating Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Hank Baskett.
Perez Hilton makes the Baskett case […]

Rays to Drop Games So Sox Can Nab Division Title?

We like the sound of this . . . a giant foam thumbs up to Frank Coffey and his eTrueSports Goodfellas for making our end-of-September:
