"Q: Help me settle a little bet here. Which celebrity would sell the most magazines if she chose to pose for Playboy?

A: Anna Kournikova -- Although she'd be much better off 'accidentally' leaking a sex video. That could cause the entire internet to crash."


I like his writing. The actual "sports" content seems limited, but it's a lot of fun to read about the player personalities, fan interaction, and hot chicks too!

yeah, he's not a journalist. he's a columnist. and he's a red sox fan, so it was great reading his columns through the playoffs. but yeah, he is very funny.

When Violet (Palmer) started officiating a few years ago, she was so incompetent, players and coaches actually avoided arguing with her -- whenever she screwed up, they would always glance around helplessly, the same way you would if your puppy dropped a deuce on the living room carpet. But now she's been around for a few years and people are fed up. On Monday night, Doc Rivers was one bad Violet call away from ending up in a white Bronco with Al Cowlings. I love this stuff.
