I am in no way anything close to a political pundit, so I feel absolutely no shame in asking…what the hell is a Libertarian anyway? Scratch that, I don’t need to know that bad. Really I don’t. What I can infer though is that Libertarians from the great state of Oregon must really love Rick [...]

Just when you think the human race can’t sink to lower depths than it already has, along comes a story such as this which completely reaffirms that yes, humanity is going to hell in a hand-basket.
The whole Michael Vick fiasco showed the world the barbarism and inhumanity that is the culture of dog fighting. Cockfighting [...]

No, not that kind of slumpbuster, sickos. I would never consider someone’s mother a slumpbuster of any sorts, least of all one whose offspring resembles the lovechild of Richard Kiel. And if you don’t know who Richard Kiel is, Google him, or watch Happy Gilmore and/or Moonraker–Kiel’s the ginormous cretin with the heart of gold, [...]

Remember that good feeling everyone had after the men’s Gold Medal game between Canada and the United States? Remember how the excitement generated from that game was going to carry over to the National Hockey League, once the Olympics were done, and how NHL television viewers would increase in numbers for the remainder of the [...]

This has all the makings of a straight-to-video Steven Seagal classic…including a plucky, well-known sidekick in tennis star Boris Becker.
Germany held it’s largest poker tournament this past Saturday, at the Grand Hyatt hotel in Central Berlin. Like I said, Becker was there, because I guess that’s what German tennis legends do when they finish playing [...]

It’s a depressing commentary on the state of boxing when I am actually able to write about the possibility of a 47-year-old Evander Holyfield stepping into the ring against a 44-year-old Mike Tyson, for a third, and hopefully final time. A match between these two dinosaurs would be akin to watching a couple of old [...]

Yes, I’ll admit that I am one of those pervs who has fantasized about women wrestling in assorted condiments and foodstuffs–everything from that old standby, Jello, to hot oil, to warm oatmeal. But coleslaw? Never once considered it as a suitable forum for wrestling ladies.
But it is. And at the risk of generalizing a [...]

I didn’t know people even played Four Square anymore, let alone have a tournament to crown a world champion, yet here we are.
At first I thought this was some lame attempt at yet another viral Internet video, or worse, some terrible sequel to Dodgeball, but after watching the video, it seems legit. Four Square, for [...]

And there is absolutely nothing wrong with that. Hey, they just won the gold medal game over their arch-rivals the Americans. Why shouldn’t they cut loose?
So, about a half an hour after collecting their gold medals and retreating to the locker room, the ladies of the Canadian hockey team figured it was time to ramp [...]

Reading this quote from Norwegian Odd-Bjorn Hjelmeset, who won silver in the men’s 4 x 10km cross-country relay, makes me think that the Norwegian athletes just enjoy messing with the media (ain’t that right, Sven Kramer).
I mean really, how else can you explain this absolutely bizarre and cryptic quote from a man called Odd…
