This afternoon, the one and only Randy Johnson announced his retirement. If you ask us, they just don’t make Units as Big as they used to. Or as ugly. RJ will certainly be missed. And for the record, this is the single greatest baseball highlight of the past 20 years.

Wild-Card weekend might be the most exciting two days of the season. And this year there’s a twist, as three wild card games feature rematches of teams that squared off against each other just this past weekend. But that doesn’t mean we should tune out. What red-blooded American didn’t spent his childhood glued to TV […]
Throughout Alabama, when the Crimson Tide have a football game, the streets empty, business stops, and all eyes turn to the ballgame. So it should come as no surprise that a unique “Motion to Continue” (in layman’s terms — a request to delay a trial) was recently filed in a Birmingham court. The reason? An […]
There’s plenty of reasons to love Danilo Gallinari, from his unbridled Italian spirit to the fact that he’s both made and attempted more three-pointers than anyone else in the league. But what distinguishes Gallo from the pack is the fact that he always seems to be having fun whether he’s on or off the court. […]
Whatever happened to some good, old-fashioned tough love? So what if Mike Leach stuck Adam James in a dark shed and forced him to remain standing for hours? And what’s the big deal if two days later, when James returned to practice, Leach threw him in an electrical closet for a few more hours, forcing […]
A few days ago, Urban Meyer set the college football world ablaze with his announcement that he was resigning as head coach at the University of Florida. Almost immediately, the major TV outlets started preparing retrospectives on Meyer’s career, insisting that his exit from the game was like Joe Gibbs or Barry Sanders: guys who […]
Whatever happened to the good old days? When the neighborhood kids set the mood by singing carols, as a soft blanket of snow fell to the ground? Not to worry — Agent Zero, Gilbert Arenas’ mini-me, is here to bring back the Christmas cheer. And he’s not afraid to belt out a holiday classic… For […]

On Wednesday night, when the Oklahoma City Thunder hosted the Dallas Mavericks at the Ford Center, the entire Thunder roster wore forward Kevin Durant’s new Nikes, dubbed the Creamsicles. Despite our love for the delicious childhood treat, the white uniform and orange shoe combo was frankly less than appetizing. More troubling was the Thunder’s lackluster […]
Last we checked in with the Robertson family, they were having a difficult time adjusting to life with their newborn Fullback. And let’s face it, infants are never easy to care for…especially when they’re 275 pounds. But despite the XXL dirty diapers, the constant crying, and the fact that baby Dion always seems to be […]

Spud is Short. So is his List!
If you went to a Milwaukee Bucks home game last year, you were probably greeted with a half-empty stadium and a less than enthusiastic fan base. Whether it was the rust-belt economy or the Bucks’ abysmal play, something was keeping the natives of Wisconsin out of the Bradley Center…but that was until starting center Andrew […]
It’s been impossible to escape the media circus surrounding Tiger Woods, but something’s been lacking from all the coverage over the past few weeks: with all the focus on Elin and the women who Tiger slept with, we haven’t heard anything about the guys who were romantically involved with Tiger’s mistresses. What did Jamie Grubbs’ […]
When we heard about the curious case of Mackenzie McCollum, a pregnant high school volleyball player in Texas who’s been forbidden to play, we thought we’d check in with the resident gynecologist here at the GSF, the distinguished Dr. Leavenworth, to get some professional insight. As usual, Dr. L had some very strong opinions on […]
Yesterday when we heard the news about Peter Gammons leaving ESPN, we were heartbroken. What would life be like without the Silver Fox pontificating on all things baseball? But as we read more about Gammons’ departure from ESPN, we learned that he isn’t leaving the sport altogether, but is only moving to the MLB Network, […]
Luc Longley adds to the weird reputation of Australian basketball players. (NESW Sports) Dwight Howard’s disgusting free-throw ritual. (Guyism) With all the attention on A.I, Philly’s other A.I. hit this ridiculous shot. (Hoop Doctors) If you’ve never watched a FIBA Asia Basketball game before, you’ll want to now. (The Blowtorch) Rondo plays rough defense, tough […]
