Rick Reilly Is Stealing My Material

Rick Reilly uses the celebrity washroom.

It's conveniently located down a short flight of stairs just off of the main dining room at Edgewood Tahoe, which was the host course of last weekend's American Century Championship celebrity golf tournament. If a spectator or a lowly journalist attempts to use the washroom, he is shooed away by two muscular security guards. Only the likes of Tony Romo, Ray Romano and, yes, Rick Reilly, are allowed to use it.

Brady Quinn: Bringing People Together Of All Persuasions

It's only speculation as to how many gay relationships have been started because of Brady Quinn. After all, his photo has been used to promote the M4M gay dating service for a couple of months now on Facebook pages across our great land. More »

Eli Manning's Wedding Reception

Manning "Reception" Is Everything You'd Imagine It Would Be

Sadly, there are no Village People moments like Brady Quinn had at his sister's wedding to A.J. Hawk, but if you do scroll through the lovely photo album, there are plenty of Manning-like moments that will clearly be cherished always. The New York Giants' quarterback appears to be coming out of his shell a little bit — that's what a Super Bowl victory will do to a man. More »

balls deep

Your NFL Season Brownie Point Calculator

Drew Magary’s Balls Deep column runs every Thursday afternoon. Drew’s new book, “Men With Balls,” featuring 100% new material, is available for pre-order here. You can email Drew here. Read him during the week at KSK.

I’m married with a kid. If you happen to be in a similar predicament, you know that being married with kids acts as a giant Dyson vacuum cleaner on your free time. You have to go to work. You have to commute. You have to run errands. You have to get gas. You have to do chores. You have to pay taxes. You have to do paperwork. You have to do housework. You have to do yardwork. You have to do someotherkindofwork. You have to dress the kid, change the kid, feed the kid, keep the kid occupied, take the kid out, and generally make sure the kid doesn’t go hurtling down the staircase. You have to find three free seconds to go quietly masturbate in the upstairs bathroom.

And at the end of the day, when you’ve finally managed to do all your goddamn shit, just as you’re ready to breathe a sigh of relief and begin the cathartic movement of lowering your ass onto the couch, it is AUTOMATIC that your wife will say to you:

“Wait, before you sit down, can you change the laundry?”

God. Fucking. Dammit.

Stuart Scott Gets The Final Word

This month's GQ, "The Comedy Issue", features a slate of interesting articles about the state of comedy — the up-and-comers, the old guard, in an easy-to-read lay out, anchored by a Seth Rogen feature, which tells us all how the shlubby kid with the Jew-fro became the hottest property in Hollywood — and is end-to-end a very satisfying read. In the front of the book, which may or may not be part of the "Comedy Issue," GQ writer Nate Penn has a quick q-and-a with ESPN's Stuart Scott. Clearly he's either a little annoyed at answering this whole blog question (don't blame him) or he's just come around to actually reading them — this one in particular. More »

minor enterprise

Please Come To Altoona, Will Ferrell!

Ladies and gentlemen, can I please have your attention. I've just been handed an urgent and horrifying news story. I need all of you, to stop what you're doing and listen. Cannonball!

Hope springs eternal in Altoona, Pa., where the local Class AA Eastern League Pittsburgh Pirates affiliate, the Curve, await a very special guest on Monday. Will Ferrell has been invited to throw out the first pitch in the Curve's game against the Akron Aeros, and to meet and greet fans. This will be a glorious day for fans of baseball and comedy alike; except for one minor, possible hitch: Ferrell has not said that he will attend. In fact, it's quite possibly that he knows nothing about it.

Tom Brady

Gisele Bundchen's Buttock-Baring Shorts Can Finally Be Seen As They Were Originally Intended

Plenty of online pants-stirring commotion occurred a few months ago when photos of Tom Brady's girlfriend Gisele Bundchen getting a butt-buff were loosed upon the internet masses. Finally, V magazine's fall issue was released and the photos of Gisele doing her whole giraffe-wearing-Daisy Dukes routine can be flipped through and ogled at a hair salon near you. (Sadly, Kige, did not make the final print version.) More »

Kornhesier Crabgate, The Next Day: Shocking New Details Emerge

Now it seems that key sources are backing off from their claims that ESPN chatterbox Tony Kornhesier had acted like a pompous ass at a Delaware seafood restaurant recently. Here's the original item from the Pulp Culture Blog in the Wilmington News Journal, which claims that Kornheiser threw a fit when they didn't have his favorite variety of crab on the menu. But at our request, Pulp Culture editor Ryan Cormier did some re-checking on this story. Here's his report: More »

UFC

Worst Getaway Attempt Ever

UFC champ-turned-whack-a-mole Quinton "Rampage" Jackson got himself into a bit of trouble on Tuesday, fleeing the scene of an accident, evading police, and then being arrested at gunpoint by Newport Beach police. Not only was our protagonist riding on rims at the end of the pursuit, but another sticking point in his brilliant getaway plan was that he had a life-sized photo of himself on the side of his pickup truck.

Hunter S. Thompson, Those Old ESPN Columns And Large Wads Of Cocaine

Honestly, I had forgotten that Hunter S. Thompson had written for Page 2 until I watched “Gonzo,” the new documentary about Mr. Duke (produced by my old pal Mark Cuban). I’m pretty embarrassed to have forgotten it; it’s like I blocked it out. I suspect many of you feel the same way; those columns were pretty bad. More »

Tony Kornheiser Is Very Fussy About His Shellfish

In case you were wondering just what Tony Kornheiser is really like, apparently these days the needle on the douchemeter is pressed all the way to the right. I can't imagine going to a seafood restaurant and throwing a fit because my favorite variety of crab isn't on the menu, but then I don't work for ESPN. More »

The Biggest Attractions In Tahoe Were Not Necessarily Golfers

It's true: Tony Romo did fall into a pond at the American Century Championship. And was rescued by a hockey player. But practically no one noticed, as Jessica Simpson was rocking the white dress with the orange whoozits and wowing the crowd with her intellectual prowess. Typical exchange: "Jessica! Can I have your autograph?" Jessica: "Suuure!" More »
