Tim Tebow, happy to be a Gator. Happy to be the Heisman winner. The legend of Tim Tebow grows, as he becomes the first under classman to win the prestigious award.

Relax! Cleveland Cavaliers' LeBron James now has mom as an enforcer Why was anyone ever worried about the hard fouls issued to LeBron James? Cleveland fans don't have to worry about James as long as his mom is in the house.

PGA Dresses Down John Daly for Golfing Topless A video of John Daly golfing in Branson, Mo., with no shirt or shoes has prompted this response from PGA Commissioner Tim Finchem: "There are certain things about presentation that we must insist on."
posted to Golf at 6:35 AM CDT
Earlier that day, John's girlfriend walked into the bedroom to find him putting on a shirt and shoes.
"What the heck are you doing?" She asked. "I thought you were going to play golf!"
"Aw hell, " he replied. " I'm out of smokes, I gotta go to Seven-Eleven first!"

Glad you didn't say a hole in one, Bo. Then I'd owe everyone a drink!
Steelergirl, not sure exactly what you mean. Yes, golf wear of the yesteryear was atrocious, but if you have to wear a shirt and shoes to go to a convenience store, shouldn't you at least have to do the same on a golf course?

Heisman Winner Tim Tebow Circumcises Kids How did Heisman Trophy-winning quarterback Tim Tebow spend his spring break? Performing medical and dental surgeries on impoverished children in the Phillipines -- including circumcisions. "The first time, it was nerve-racking," he said. "Hands were shaking a little bit."

The Tim Tebows of the world are a refreshing change from the Greg Madduxes of the world.
Whoa, there is only one Greg Maddux. I believe when he was in the Philippines, he had a Lorena Bobbitt inspiring quote that was something along the lines of, "You want me to circumcise 'em? Hell, no! But I'll castrate every last one of them."

Fukudome doesn't find racist T-shirts in Wrigleyville funny A Fukudome T-shirt with a racist image is the hottest-selling item at a souvenir stand that sells unlicensed Cubs-related merchandise across Addison Street from the ballpark.......... The Cubs front office was flooded with angry emails from fans in response to a Sun-Times story about a controversial T-shirt being sold outside of Wrigley Field. The ballclub does the right thing (update inside) after the uproar, for those of you who feel we've licked the problem of Racism in America, Guess Again!

This is exactly why white folks are made fun of by other groups.
I thought it was 'cause their babies were so f-n creepy.

Mike Wallace interviews Bob Feller It's August 4, 1957, and Mike Wallace, the host of The Mike Wallace Interview, is interviewing Bob Feller in an effort to go after "the controversial story of conflict between players and team owners in major league baseball."

That was really interesting. "no filter, no foolin'!"
Over 50 years ago and the topics were so not outdated.
And, yeah, Mike Wallace came across as kind of a dick.

The San Francisco Giants have now removed prominent tributes in the stadium to Barry Bonds The left-field wall no longer bears an image of Bonds chasing Hank Aaron for the home run crown, nor elsewhere is the number of Bonds' home runs in relation to Aaron posted. There are no "756" signs -- signifying the home run he hit to break Aaron's record -- anywhere in the park, in fact. A team spokeswoman said the Giants would put up a plaque to note where he had hit his last homer with the team.

Other than the marker out in Monument Park, are there any tributes to Lou Gehrig in Yankee Stadium?
They named a disease after him, it was the luckiest day of his life. duh.

Arsenal's Eduardo Da Silva injured in outrageous tackle, possibly ending his career. A truly horrific injury, broken pieces of bone were sticking out of his sock as he was stretchered of the field. This is the sort of injury that you never truly recover from (See Alex Smith). I hope the FA bans Martin Taylor for life.

From Trox' picture only...if he was going for the f-n ball, he would have had his left leg extended.
I saw Vidic take a nasty cleat to the shin today. It pissed me off. I don't understand tackles with cleats full bore at someones shin. Timing doesn't excuse an extremely poor tackle. Cleats up, a foot or two above the ball...should be an instant red in all circumstances. I'd go as far as an instant PK.
On preview: what you said, wc.

I apologize, not really on topic but I have to ask. Does anyone else think the Pats would have won if they still had Corey Dillon?

On the flip side, a bit of a tear jerker, but good on the athletes who take some time for kids. Even ones with assholes for dads.

How soccer explains the US elections. Hillary (Hillisco is her Brazilian soccer name) would win by a mile. Soccer cred includes playing on her high school varsity team, and soccer team-named daughter Chelsea also playing soccer. Highlights include pic of Bill Clinton (Clintosa!) playing soccer with Pele, and video of Chuck Norris, greatest soccer player in the world.

You live in the savannahs of Australia, and your diet consists mostly of wolves, berries and Dr. Pepper.
You can walk on jet fuel. You have big hair. You have uncanny instinct. You can breathe lava. You can drink Dr. Pepper. You can shoot tahini. You can breathe acid. You can eat poison.
Yes, I am. . .Nidorino! I have big hair and can walk or eat anything you guys can throw at me! Except for hot death and maybe maple syrup. I love my hair, btw.

First Day of Term Despite the hour, the temperature was already into the mid-twenties. Despite the temperature, I was shivering. It wasn’t nerves; it was terror.

ESPN's Dana Jacobson learns the Internet is always listening I didn't even learn about this until Jacobson apologized on her show Monday morning, but the question remains: Was one week away from the job that ESPN gave Dana enough of a consequence? Swilling vodka straight from the bottle at the podium and cursing Jesus?

LBB, I wish you were right. But look at that idiot of a president we have, who claims he gets his marching orders from Jesus. If this is true I would say FUCK JESUS for that alone.
Or look at the three Republican candidates who believe don't believe in evolution (and, by the way, why can't evolution be considered "intelligent design?" I never understood that).
You mean Jesus didn't say start an unprovoked war in Iraq and kill half a miillion people and displace 3 million others?
Someone better tell the president.
As far as I can tell, this topic has absolutely nothing to do with the war, Republicans or the President. If you have an agenda, on those topics, I'm sure you could find somewhere more appropriate to spout them.
