Soon to be one of the classic sports rants of all time. My favorite: “Do you believe in miracles?”
Enjoy…

Yankees: The new feel-good story
Male fan shows love for part of Tim Tebow
Deadspin has a gallery up of Halloween costumes sent in by readers. One caught my eye and is very specific as to what part of Tim Tebow this guy hearts (sort of not safe for work):

Wishing Duke’s season WAS canceled…
Not that you needed it, but reason No. 384 to hate Duke basketball: They are NOT FUNNY! At least a few of them take their shirts off. I guess. Should I put this under the “humor” category? Eh, when they flame out in the second round of the tournament it’ll be funny, so I might [...]
Jimmy Fallon makes tired Gay Games jokes
Unfortunately for people who enjoy comedy and have a good sense of humor, Jimmy Fallon hosts the Late Night show on NBC. Yesterday he decided to go after the Gay Games’ choice of Cleveland to host the 2014 Games:
It was announced yesterday that Cleveland, Ohio, will host the 2014 Gay Games. That’s weird, I thought [...]
Fan asks for refund, gets it
Every fan has thought about writing to their favorite team/school/coach and asking for a refund after a team’s poor performance. University of Oregon fan Anthony Seminary did just that after witnessing his team’s loss to Boise State (the one involving a much-publicized post-game punch). Shockingly, he got a response from Ducks head coach Chip Kelly. [...]
Photo: Sergio Garcia, his crotch and his putter
Stephanie Wei writes the “Wei Under Par” blog and she captured this shot of golfer Sergio Garcia at the Barclay’s event. Stephanie’s caption:
He’s currently exploring patent opportunities to develop the PGA’s first “dick mount.”

Should ‘dong’ make the Deadspin Hall of Fame?
As Deadspin moves through the most recent nominees for its Hall of Fame, “Dong” is the latest to get a crack at the vaunted honor. Chris Cooley. Visanthe Shiancoe. Santonio Holmes. These are the men who have shown us they are men (anatomically). My guess is that Deadspin’s straight-male readers will vote against it, but [...]
Clinton Portis again declares he’s not gay
There he goes again. Washington Redskins running back Clinton Portis, the NFL’s one-stop shop for crazy press conferences, has again declared that he’s not gay: Despite the fact that no one in the press had asked him. He was responding to a question about his recently dyed hair. My guess is he’d heard so much [...]
Sports Tweet of the Week: See-through shorts!
I know, it’s been longer than a week, but as I believe I’ve said before, I procrastinate. Plus, I’m occasionally lazy. Sue me. At any rate, the Portland Trail Blazers’ official Twitter feed is featuring updates from Team USA’s minicamp in Las Vegas, where the Blazers’ Greg Oden is one of 23 participants. [...]
Video: Tony Romo, product endorser
Dallas Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo shows a nice sense of humor in this online ad for Starter where he discusses the 50,000 products he endorses, including protein pickles.

Bruno scores big, avoids wrestling beatdown
“Hi, I’m Bruno.” This Friday, the gayest movie of the year is released; I saw it tonight and just loved it. It’s a relatively short movie, but in those 85 minutes I laughed as hard as I’d ever laughed. Many of it was uncomfortable laughter, but when he talks about the lips of his Christian [...]
Serena’s TITles
I love the t-shirt Serena Williams was wearing Saturday after she locked up her third Wimbledon title. Do you love it? Hate it? Funny? Crass?

Sports Tweets of the Week: NFL stars’ feuds
In response to the problems created by people pretending to be celebrities (not the least of which was the Tony LaRussa lawsuit), Twitter has instituted a program (still in beta testing mode) to verify that the pages of famous people or the entities they represent are legitimate. One such “Verified Account” is that of San [...]
Mickelson’s crazy backward shot
If you’re a golfer, you’ve no doubt had those occasional downhill shots on the edge of a bunker that just killed your score. Phil Mickelson has a way around it: The backward shot. You turn around with your back to the pin and aim AWAY from the hole, making it an uphill shot. And you [...]
Sports Tweet of the Week: Eli tweeted at half!
Update: per the information in Jim’s comment below, the Eli Manning on Twitter is apparently a fake.
This week, as a change of pace, the Sports Tweet of the Week presents…no, that’s not true. To be honest, I didn’t look once all week at AthleteTweets.com or WeFollow.com to see what our Twitterlicious sports personalities were up [...]
