Tuesday, March 18th, 2008

Ever since his Keyshawn Johnson interview, every time Chad Johnson talks to ESPN, it becomes newsworthy.

Five-Overtime Game Restored

Wednesday, March 5th, 2008

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 [...]

ESPN Borrows Liberally From Vegas Watch

Friday, February 1st, 2008

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 [...]

Chris Berman Does NOT Like Distractions

Thursday, January 31st, 2008

It looks like the golden fleece of sports-related videos has been found (via Deadspin)… I know I can’t stop watching it.

Player of the Weak: Greg Paulus and Mike Patrick

Thursday, January 17th, 2008

There isn’t a lot of love for the Duke Blue Devils outside of Cameron Indoor Stadium and after viewing this video posted by Awful Announcing of Paulus’ actions against Florida State last night, it’s easy to see why:

Of course, ESPN’s Mr. ACC, Mike Patrick, comes to the defense of Paulus like it’s his son out [...]

You Got Knocked The **** Out!!!

Monday, January 14th, 2008

This video has been going around at a couple of sites, but it’s so good, we had to feature it here as well. What we have is Edison Miranda knocking out David Banks in the 3rd round of their fight, which took place on ESPN last Friday. Both boxers are super middleweights and so, [...]

Player of the Weak: Saint Louis Billikens

Friday, January 11th, 2008

I’m not sure if this is what Rick Majerus had in mind when he took over for the Billikens, but this is what he got: a team that can only muster SEVEN POINTS in one half of basketball (and only 13 in the other). According to ESPN’s segment (thanks for the embeddable video… [...]
