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 […]

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 […]

You know how once in a while you come across something billed as funny that happens also to be mean, politically incorrect, or just plain wrong?
And you know how you laugh anyway?
And then you know how it’s so clever and delicious that, quite frankly, you don’t even feel guilty about giggling?
Yeah, us too. That’s how this bloggerette […]

Putz. We’ve made the case for New York Giants QB Eli Manning being one on numerous occasions, such as when he has a buzz (slide 4 of 18 in the picture gallery) or when he gets lucky and wins the Super Bowl.
And wife Abby McGrew seemed fine, so we thought his April marriage to her might […]

Well, well, well. We aren’t the only tongue-in-cheek Debbie Downers around here; the rest of the b5 media Sports Channel had something to say about the “worsts” in sports, too.
Here’s what the whole gang of us had to say:
Allison Boyer of BCS Frenzy reflects on last season with the five worst BCS teams of 2007.

Yesterday we did a Top 5 post on fans throwing stuff onto the field, so today we thought we’d balance out the happiness with some negativity—a “worst of” post.
Here are a few entertaining “worsts” across the sports world:

Yesterday we pointed out two Boston Herald articles in which some not-so-subtle readers used the comments section as a means of imploring the newspaper to help John Tomase, creator of the Pats-Rams Super Bowl Videotape Myth, do his best John the Baptist impression.
Those articles were written by Tomase’s colleagues. Wait until you see the comments […]

Former figure skaters are certainly making their mark on the pop culture scene this week. First we had memoir-hawking Tonya Harding, whose 15 minutes of fame was over so long ago they used a sundial to keep track of it. And then we had Kristi Yamaguchi as the Dancing With the Stars winner (and Ex-Miami […]

And the blessings rain down from the Blog Deities as weekend reports indicate that Jessica Simpson and Tony Romo remain our favorite athlete-celeb hookup. Just the other day conflicting reports emerged about the twosome’s togetherness (and we know false rumors about celebrity break-ups hardly ever happen!).

For the sake of all that is blogworthy, please let it be a cruel falsehood. There are rumors circulating that Dallas Cowboys QB Tony Romo and Jessica Simpson have split.
And, as to be expected in the world of celebrity dish, there are also rumors that everything is smooth sailing, supercool, and otherwise A-OK.
