• High school football player has diploma withheld after “Tebowing” on stage during graduation

  In NFL

  Just when you thought the Tebowing meme was dead and buried, lo and behold it gets resurrected thanks to Chuck Shriner, a football player and graduating senior at Bishop Verot High School in Fort Myers, Florida, who dropped to one knee and Tebowed as he made his way across the stage to accept his diploma.  Shriner pulled his silly stunt on a $5 dare from friends, but for the 17-year-old grad, it wasn’t about the money, but rather the fame and everlasting glory that comes with being Bishop Verot’s preeminent showman.

  Too bad it cost him the opportunity to collect his diploma at the end of his walk across the stage.  Oh, and then he was made to clean up the gym following commencement as further punishment for Tebowing.

  At least he’s got a cool $5 in his pocket.  And the memories…ah, the memories. Read more ›

• Here’s the Jaguars mascot nailing the 17th hole island green at TPC Sawgrass in full costume

  In GOLF, NFL

  One of the more daunting shots in golf is hitting the island green at No.17 during The Players Championship at TPC Sawgrass.  The vast majority of PGA pros have no problem sticking it on the green due to their exceptional skill level, but I bet none of them have ever hit the green while wearing a mascot outfit like Chris Dvorak did this past weekend.

  Who’s Chris Dvorak you ask?  He’s the rather athletic gentleman who has donned the costume of Jaxson de Ville, the Jags mascot, since 1996.  Did I mention Dvorak has a 2 handicap?  Yeah, there’s that too.

  During Wednesday’s practice round Dvorak caddied for Jim Furyk on the back nine, and when their group reached the 17th, Dvorak was given a challenge by Andres Romero’s caddie that he couldn’t’ hit the island green dressed as Jaxson de Ville.  As the daredevil kids say these days, challenge accepted.

• Criminally underexposed Tim Tebow finally getting his own special on E!

  In NFL

  Jets backup quarterback and man-about-town Tim Tebow will be the subject of a special to air on E! Entertainment Television later this summer.  Because if there’s one athlete the public needs to find out more intimate details about, should any exist, it’s Tebow (Ed. note: sarcasm is fun!).

  Scant details are available as to what the 30-minute show will be about, but I can’t see it as an exposé of sorts to reveal the seamy and salacious details of Tebow’s private life, because as most of us know, the man is as pure as new fallen Tibetan snow…and just as bland. Read more ›

• Lingerie Football League’s All-Star Game featured a fight between the two coaches

  In NFL

  This past Saturday night the Lingerie Football League held it’s All-Star Game in Mexico City, and as great as it was to see the lovely scantily-clad ladies battling it out on the gridiron, the best moment of the game took place when the opposing coaches got into it at midfield.

  For some reason Tony Nguyen, coach of the Western Conference All-Stars, took issue with something that occurred on the field after a kick sailed out of bounds, and the Minnesota Valkyrie coach went after the coach of the Eastern Conference All-Stars, Chandler Brown, whose day job is being the head man of the Philadelphia Passion.
