The Awkward Post-Game Interview Award Goes To... Hedo Turkoglu

We already know Hedo Turkoglu loves his pizza (check out his iPhone-quality commercial), but his play on the court hasn’t earned him many slices this season. That all changed Thursday night in New York, when Turk torched the Knicks for 26 points and 11 rebounds, leading the Raps to a 106-104 win. But forget about [...]

Who's On Your NBA Jam Roster?

Boom-shaka-laka! Ahem, sorry… I just had to yell it once. Of course, gamers will soon be hearing those words again with the upcoming release of “NBA Jam,” modeled on the 1993 smash hit arcade game. The two-on-two classic was one of the first sports games to have an official NBA license and it was the [...]

According to a Bloomberg report, video game developers are already considering titles for Apple’s latest invention. The Apple tablet is expected to be unveiled tomorrow, after months of speculation about the latest multimedia gadget.

Viking Hand New Orleans The NFC Championship

It was one of those games where everything went wrong at the worst possible moments. Yes, despite racking up almost 500 yards of offense and holding the electric New Orleans Saints offense to under 300, the Minnesota Vikings found a way to lose in the Superdome last night. The result: New Orleans is headed to [...]

Give Pierre Garcon Some Props

It sometimes seems too easy for receivers that play with Peyton Manning. The man is one of the greatest quarterbacks to play the game and has the Super Bowl bound Colts relying on some young offensive weapons. It’s easy to say that Manning makes Pierre Garcon and Austin Collie look better than they are, but [...]

Kobe Mania In Toronto But Raptors Win

I took in the Lakers-Raptors game today, and despite feeling bad about missing the NFL playoffs, I’m glad I was there to see it. The ACC was rocking well before tip-off, largely because basketball’s biggest celebrity, Kobe Bryant, was in the house. Raptors fans are passionate, but they had Kobe-lovers to compete with, giving Toronto’s [...]

Brock Lesnar Talks Ilness, Comeback and Canada

Since Brock Lesnar vanished from the public eye two months ago, UFC boss Dana White has been the only real source of information… and he hasn’t said much. We knew Lesnar was sick… but sick with what? Two months is a heckuva long time for a premiere athlete to suddenly disappear and both fans and [...]

Gilbert Arenas Unlikely To Lose Contract... But Likely Headed For Jail

  It’s a little bit of both for Gilbert Arenas. No, scratch that… it’s a lot of both. Going to jail vs keeping your paycheck isn’t a choice most people have to make, let alone professional athletes. Not that Arenas is choosing between them – in fact, he’s facing bad news on both fronts, though [...]

Hockey's "Goal Of The Year" Comes From The ECHL

Here’s a goal to make your jaw drop. And no, it’s not Alexander Ovechkin or Sidney Crosby. In fact, it’s not even from the NHL. Yes folks, the best goal I’ve seen this year hails from the East Coast Hockey League and a team called the… seriously … the Victoria Salmon Kings. It’s one of [...]

Cormier and Kassian Should Be Suspended For Season (Or Worse)

With bigger, stronger, faster players, hockey is more dangerous than ever. With so much happening so quickly, incidents are bound to happena and injuries are inevitable. When an athlete takes to the ice, they understand the risks. Sure, the risk of injury is unavoidable, but the odds are low. That all changes when certain players [...]
