Tyson likely heading back to jail

Mike Tyson pled guilty on Monday to DUI and drug possession charges related to an incident on December 29.  He admitted he had cocaine and was driving under the influence when he was pulled over in Scottsdale last year.  Sadly, Tyson admitted that he used cocaine “whenever I can get my hands on it.”  Goodness.  [...]

Falcons blow lead with big thanks to DeAngelo Hall

A whole lot of boneheadedness on one third quarter drive was enough to propel the Panthers past the Falcons on Sunday. Corner DeAngelo Hall had been jawing with Steve Smith most of the game. On this drive, Smith burned him deep, and Hall had to drag him down, resulting in a 37-yard penalty. [...]

Vince Young fined

Vince Young was fined $7,500 Friday for an unsportsmanlike penalty during the game last Sunday against the Colts.

Antonio Pierce blows air horn to dodge questions

Talk about some boneheaded behavior — whenever critics tried to ask Giants linebacker Antonio Pierce questions about the team’s defensive play, Pierce would avoid an answer by blowing an air horn! Shannon Sharpe and Tiki Barber were quick to criticize his behavior, and Sharpe nailed it on the head, calling it “childish” and asking [...]

Chris Henry steals rental car

The suspended Bengals wide receiver, Chris Henry, pulled a doozy on Hertz, continuing to impress us with his boneheadedness. Since his car had been stolen, he decided it was okay to just grab any old car from the Hertz parking lot and drive it home! Police called in to check on the car [...]

Landis banned, forfeits Tour de France

Well, Floyd Landis was indeed found guilty of doping during his 2006 Tour de France win. Now Landis has to forfeit that title, and he’s banned from cycling until the 2009 season. He’s not even sure if he wants to return, calling the system “corrupt”. Guess what bonehead Landis – you still [...]
