We hope everyone will hold to that spirit of the competition. See complete bracket and vote on other matchups Online Surveys & Market Research […]

Back in April 2001, then-Cubs pitcher Julian Tavarez ripped San Francisco fans who booed him in a game by saying, “Why should I care about the fans? They’re a bunch of assholes and faggots here.” The next day he apologized, but he still rated 2.5 out of 5 Rockers on the Outsports Anti-Gay List (the […]

Details magazine has a story and accompanying photo gallery of New York Yankees star Alex Rodriguez that was conducted the day before all the steroid allegations broke in early February. The story doesn’t reveal a whole lot, but the photos do suggest a star who is quite the narcissist. Maybe Rodriguez is in denial. He’s […]

Yes, I am biased. I’ll admit it. But for my money, the funnest mascot in the country is the Stanford Tree. While almost every other school has some mean, vicious mascot (Wildcat, Wolverine, Bear), Stanford’s mascot is a dancing inanimate object. And each year that inanimate object changes. Some years it’s a pine tree; some […]

Note from the editors: We started this contest as a way to help get the word out about gay sports groups around the world. From the feedback we've gotten, that has happened, which is great. But we are frankly disheartened to see some of the negativity and lack of sportsmanship in the comments and some […]

Watch and find out. Kind of. Watch and find out. Kind of.

Mark Gullett lost his job last week in the Tampa Bay Lightning marketing department after nine years with the team. His 14-year-son, Ben, then posted a YouTube video trying to help his dad get a new job. The result is very touching: Mark Gullett lost his job last week in the Tampa Bay Lightning marketing […]

Tournament Selection Sunday always includes two elements: The selection of 65 teams for the tournament, and a bunch of whining by Dick Vitale about teams that got ‘snubbed' (video below). This year it's St. Mary's, who Dick and a bunch of others say was wrongly left out. The complaint is that the "little guy" got […]

Based on his facial features this was pre-steroids. With the recession continuing to ravage the nation, there's been a lot of discussion about last week's interview of CNBC's Jim "Mad Money" Cramer by Jon Stewart on The Daily Show. Stewart effectively picked apart Cramer's reputation as a financial expert (at least from some reports — […]

Gay porn star Barrett Long told Howard Stern today that he has been hired for sex by a member of the Dallas Cowboys. Resident sports nut Artie Lange immediately piped in, throwing out names of Cowboys he thought might be the culprit, including Tony Romo and Michael Irvin. Why would a pro athlete hire Long? […]

Striking fear in the hearts of opponents, it’s a green Viking! One of the things I enjoy about the NCAA basketball tournament is the nicknames and mascots. With over 300 teams in Division 1 men's basketball, there is sure to be some cross-over as well as some great unique names we don't hear every day […]

Most of the hot models who grace the pages of our magazines holding soccer balls or wearing boxing gloves are the furthest things from athletes. They mostly look the part, but they’re more comfortable reading Cosmo than Sports Illustrated. Not true with Jeremy Mulkey. The uberfit model with the gorgeous smile was a running back […]

A South African victim of “corrective rape.” Some stories are so sad and tragic that you just gape. Here is a report from Reuters: Gangs of South African men are raping lesbians in the belief it will “cure” the women’s sexual orientation, an aid agency said Friday. NGO ActionAid said in a report titled “Hate […]

The Advocate is showcasing a video of one of their reporters with the Los Angeles Frontrunners. It shows the group in a positive light and focuses on how accessible the group is for people of all ages and running experiences; The people in the L.A. Frontrunners come across great.

Swedish golfer Henrik Stenson had a problem — he had hit his ball into the mud on the third hole of the PGA Doral event in Florida on Thursday. The problem was that he did not have a change of clothes. Being a quick thinker, Stenson came up with a quick solution: “Because of the […]

From his interview with NBC: I mean, we all know what, you know, what you and I are talking about. It's a stupid mistake. You know, bad judgment. And it's something that, you know, I have to, and I want to teach other people not to make that mistake. … So, you know, the contract […]

So, how good was Syracuse's 127-117 Big East men's quarterfinal basketball win over Connecticut that lasted six overtimes and 3 hours, 46 minutes and ended at 1:22 a.m? I am asking since I missed every second of it, but in reading about it, it sounded like a classic. Believe it or not, it was only […]

The United Football League will kick off in October with a whopping four teams. The league has recruited some medium-sized names to coach said teams, but no man is bigger than Denny Green, who will head up the San Francisco team (he previously coached in the Bay Area with the 49ers and at Stanford). The […]
