That’s right, according to the crew of Fox & Friends, the recent cold bug that’s been going around the Yankees clubhouse is because they all get naked and shower together.
I believe [...]
Two major league players tested positive for drugs during this year’s World Baseball Classic, but neither will be punished by MLB. One who was punished for a test in 2008 may now be in legal trouble. The details:
Chicago Cubs catcher Geovany Soto, a member of the Puerto Rican team during the WBC, won’t be punished [...]
Texas Rangers OF Marlon Byrd has said he’s taking supplements at the direction of BALCO’s Victor Conte. This just in: He’s having Michael Vick dog-sit this weekend.
LSU wins College World Series over Texas.
Rodney Harrison calls Favre’s on-again-off-again five-year retirement tour “ridiculous.”
Lleyton Hewitt has pulled off Wimbledon’s first big upset, ousting No. 5 Juan Martin del [...]
Cincinnati Reds first baseman Joey Votto, the team’s best hitter, has been on the disabled list since May 30 with what the team has termed “stress-related issues.” The team and Votto have been vague about what is causing his stress, so that has kicked the rumor mill into high gear in Cincinnati. One popular conclusion? [...]
In the early days of Outsports we had a clunky discussion board where every reply started a new thread. At the time, baseball player Gabe Kapler had done several photo spreads displaying his muscular body, and posters would flood the board with numerous Kapler threads; so many, that even mentioning Kapler became a no-no, and [...]
Variety reports that “Moneyball,” the Steven Soderbergh film starring Brad Pitt as Oakland A’s general manager Billy Beane (not to be confused with openly gay former ballplayer Billy Bean) may be in trouble. The report says that Columbia Pictures has put the production in “limited turnaround” because studio head Amy Pascal felt the final draft [...]
I’ve seen quite a few news items — AP and others — about The Many Lives of Alex Rodriguez by Selena Roberts becoming a book-business case of “three strikes, you’re out.” In spite of a nationwide retail slump in bookstores, Harper Collins was evidently hoping to pull off the old magic trick that has [...]
Brent, a longtime photographer for Outsports, went to the NCAA baseball regionals last week and submitted these three cool shots of Cal State Fullerton players showing off their attempts at growing facial hair. Some guys call themselves the “Mustache Riding Club” and then there are the guys who go the goatee route. Fullerton is playing [...]
Roger Federer (right) nearly blew his chance at his first French Open title a day after Nadal lost, but he rallied from a 2-set deficit to advance to the quarterfinals.
Red Wings take 2-0 series lead in the Stanley Cup Finals. Pittsburgh to rename their NHL team “the Bills.”
Shocking news of the day: Lions are the [...]
Let me make it clear that I don’t want to discuss in any way the political ramifications of today’s nomination of Judge Sonia Sotomayor to the U.S. Supreme Court by President Barack Obama. However, there’s a sports angle here. She played a major role in the end of the most disastrous work stoppage in the [...]
Denver Nuggets get win in L.A., still wrestling with the Iron Sheik.
UConn and South Florida beat a five-hour rain delay with a dance-off. Will straight white guys dance to anything but Soulja Boy?
Pittsburgh Penguins take 2-0 lead over Hurricanes.
Virginia, Syracuse, Duke and Cornell play men’s lacrosse Final Four this weekend.
Jets and Bucs reportedly the only [...]
There’s another chapter in the strange tale of my current favorite sad-sack team, the 2009 Washington Nationals. Tuesday night’s 8-5, 10-inning loss to the visiting Pittsburgh Pirates marked the sixth consecutive game in which the Nats scored at least five runs and still lost. According to STATS, LLC such a streak has only happened three [...]
Last month, Australian rugby league player David Williams was declared the winner of the 2009 King of the Hardwood contest after the competition’s creator, friend of Outsports Layne (aka Mariner Duck Guy on the Discussion Board), threw out votes for LA Dodger Brad Ausmus due to an online ballot-stuffing campaign. It was unfortunate that the [...]
One of my sports pet peeves has been the starting time and length of postseason baseball games, particularly the World Series. It has always been baseball’s showcase event and, in those olden days when games were played on weekday afternoons, kids of all ages and the young-at-heart would skip work or school, or sneak a [...]
When Cyd gave me this gig, he told me to write about whatever tickled my fancy. Well, maybe not those words exactly, but I have been thinking about what I want to bring to you fine readers of the Outsports’ Jock Talk Blog. So I thought I’d bring you a piece on an athlete you’ll [...]
