It’s hard to deny Tiger Woods’ appeal. It’s also something that’s really easy to measure. We all know about the ratings for golf when Tiger plays as opposed to when he doesn’t. We’ve also learned about the Church of Tiger Woods — which is exactly what it sounds like.
With all of that […]

A lot was made about Curt Schilling’s comments about Kobe Bryant’s demeanor after Schilling blogged about attending Game 2 of the NBA Finals. In case you don’t quite recall; essentially, Schilling said Bryant was extremely hard on his teammates and apparently displayed noticeable levels of aggravation towards the other Lakers, including some sailor-like cussing.
For […]

The Urban Dictionary defines Munsoned as — To have the whole world in the palm of your hand and then piss it all away.
Funny, that sounds exactly what’s been happening with Roger Clemens, no matter how much he maintains his innocence. Apparently, ESPN is thinking the same thing and thanks to the Mindy McCready […]

During the Glenn Dorsey pick by the Kansas City Chiefs, the Gameday crew almost talked over it while the camera crew almost missed cutting to Roger Goodell. Which is good, right?
In other news, that’s a MASSIVE watch/bracelet Glenn’s wearing. In other, other news, the Kansas City Chiefs had a great first round.

During last night’s pregame time killers, ESPN had Shelley Smith patrolling the court to provide some insight into what fans could expect from the game they were getting ready to watch. Apparently, the task got her pretty excited:
Nothing like flubbing your words on live TV. Everything’s fine with her delivery until she gets […]

I saw this while I was perusing around ESPN a few minutes ago and I found it ironically fitting… so I figured I’d capture it for you:
Now if you can’t tell, the letters “ACL” from sponsor Oracle are visible behind Webber’s head and while he didn’t have any direct anterior cruciate damage, his knees gave […]

Ever since his Keyshawn Johnson interview, every time Chad Johnson talks to ESPN, it becomes newsworthy. This time, Ocho Cinco is discussing his thoughts about remaining in Cincinnati (not excited), the Marvin Lewis incident (he had to be restrained), where he’d like to end up (a team that can win playoff games and a […]

Way, way back in January, Baylor beat Texas A&M in a five-overtime classic that, much like Wilt Chamberlain’s 100-point game, no one saw… at least not on TV, anyway. In today’s era, not having television coverage for teams from a power conference like the Big-12 is pretty unheard of. Well, just in time […]

The Worldwide Leader is getting really good at talking out of both sides of their mouths. On one hand, they dis and dismiss the sports blogosphere like we are bunch of mongoloids, but at the same time, when they need some content for ESPN: The Magazine (SI, much?), they have no problem taking it […]

It looks like the golden fleece of sports-related videos has been found (via Deadspin)… I know I can’t stop watching it. While this little ditty will probably be short-lived on YouTube, it will probably go down as an instant classic. What we have is the Mount Rushmore of ESPN, Chris Berman, GOING OFF […]
