Read this: Lil Wayne’s thoughts on the US Open
Lil Wayne: rapper, sportscaster, and tennis aficionado. Who would have thought? Love the guy’s work. His handwriting is surprisingly good, and grammar too. Check out the full text, sic’d, after the jump.
A-Rod or A-Roid?
Going with our apparent baseball theme this afternoon, we want you to sound off. What do you think?
Is this the dumbest sports article of all time?
Scope out this Discovery.com article on Tour de France riders—I’ll wait here. Or if you’re too lazy, I’ll just tell you the premise: to be a successful Tour de France rider you need to be a superhuman mutant. You need your “lungs, heat, and muscles… to work exceptionally well,” and be able to “pedal at [your] highest level of exertion for extremely long periods of time.” It takes “hours of training a day, year after year,” and a maximum “strength-to-weight …

George Steinbrenner dead at age 80
Now god knows I’m not a Yankees fan… in fact, I’m the furthest thing in the world from one. Last night while watching the Home Run Derby I actively bet against Nick Swisher, just on the count that he’s a Yankee (and looks like a fucking douchebag). But I’ll tell you the truth—I respect the Yankees, and I respected George Steinbrenner. He died this morning, at the age of 80 of a heart attack. George did, throughout his ownership of …
Cav’s owner Dan Gilbert lays the smackdown on Lebron James in an open letter
We’ve intentionally not reported anything on Lebron’s egotistic antics over the last few days because that’s all that ESPN has been airing. But since the Cav’s owner Dan Gilbert wrote such a fucking awesome open letter, we figured we’d share it. Check it out below: Dear Cleveland, All Of Northeast Ohio and Cleveland Cavaliers Supporters Wherever You May Be Tonight; As you now know, our former hero, who grew up in the very region that he deserted this evening, is …

What to do with your old Speedo LZR?
So, some of you may know that Speedo and basically every other swim company in the world came out with their version of a ridiculously fast swim suit. I mean the shit basically had a motor on it. After breaking almost every single world, national, club, age group, and college record in the books the suits have been outlawed. Basically, these suits were like ‘roids for swimmers. They led to all this controversy as some were better than others and …
The Tour de France: If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it
Ok so everyone may still be caught up in the World Cup craze right now, but one of the greatest annual sporting events in the world has already begun. On July 3rd the 2010 Tour de France began. Lance is back (for his very last time), Alberto Contador is still a dick (if you don’t know what I’m talking about, do some reading about team Astana from last year), and there is the return of Mark Cavendish “the fastest man …

World Cup Soccer: With the USA gone, what next?
If you are like me, the only country you root for at the Olympics and the World Cup is the United States. I was hopeful that after Landon Donovan had scored in the 91st minuted against Algeria that this might be the year that the Americans return to the semifinals after an 80 year hiatus. Well it was not meant to be as Ghana’s Asamoah Gyan stuck a dagger through my heart and millions of other Americans with his fantastic …

Sound off: Where will Lebron James end up?
The free agency period started at midnight last night, and the question on everyone who gives a shit’s mind is:
Sound Off: What should John Isner do now?
John Isner just won the longest match in recorded history. It was over 11 hours long and spanned over 3 days. The big man (he is 6’9”) must be exhausted. He is still scheduled to play doubles today and was supposed to play his second round singles match today as well…
