Baylor assistant football coach urinates on bar

What the hell was this guy thinking?  Baylor offensive line coach Eric Schnupp was suspended indefinitely for urinating on the bar at a local tavern.  He later resigned.  He claimed he thought no one was watching as people were clearing out the front.  I don’t care if no one was watching — what makes you [...]

NBC installs killer cameras, steals Holmgren’s plays

Apparently NBC doesn’t like the Seahawks too much, having installed suicidal cameras over the field in Sunday night’s game. Not once, but twice did an overhead camera come crashing down to the field, first near Matt Hasslebeck and then near Bobby Engram. I guess next time they’ll have to install a heat-seeking unit [...]

Jason Kidd gropes woman in club?

This is pretty funny, even if it turns out not to be true — Nets guard Jason Kidd has been accused of groping and harassing a woman in a night club. Kidd calls it a complete lie, but the woman claims Kidd grabbed her crotch (lol)! When the woman tried to break away, Kidd kept [...]

Manny Ramirez doesn’t care if Boston loses?

Some boneheaded words came out of the mouth of Manny Ramirez yesterday.  With Boston facing elimination tonight, Manny told reporters “who cares? There’s always next year. It’s not like it’s the end of the world.”  Wow.  Way to rally your team and get the support of the fans!  It must be comforting knowing that your [...]

Angry African soccer fans attack!

Another crazy story of lunatic soccer fans — last Friday, there was an African Nations Cup match in Lome between Togo and Mali. Mali won the match 2-0, and that set off a bunch of angry Togo fans. The Mali players and fans were camping at the stadium, and an angry Togo mob [...]

Anthony Hargrove fined for disorderly conduct

Buffalo Bills defensive end Anthony Hargrove was playing in his first game of the season last Monday night, spending the first 4 games on the bench due to a substance abuse suspension. So what does Hargrove do when he gets back in the action? Why Hargrove breaks a police officer’s glasses in an [...]

Boulerice suspended 25 games for cross-check to face

Philadelphia Flyers forward Jesse Boulerice has been suspended 25 games for his vicious cross-check hit to the face of Vancouver’s Ryan Kesler on Friday. The suspension on Boulerice is the longest in league history, making a statement that boneheaded, dangerous hits like this will be met with severe punishment. Boulerice has a long [...]

Indiana basketball violates recruitment laws

Indiana basketball coach Kelvin Sampson is in trouble again for recruiting violations. Sampson and other assistant coaches have been violating the limit on calls that can be made to recruits, contacting different recruits illegally on many different occasions. The punishment of these violations was quite severe — Sampson lost out on a $500,000 [...]
