Thanks to Myspace and Youtube, we are getting the chance to meet young high school and collegiate athletes long before they make real names for themselves, and before the agents and handlers have gotten hold of them. So it was with great interest that I stumbled across the self-proclaimed “Myspace Messiah,” Kellen Kiilsgaard (right). He’s […]

One of our favorite blogs, BoiFromTroy, is following AfterElton’s lead and creating a College Football Tops 25 contest to find out who the hottest guys in college football are. He’s taking nominations and votes until Aug. 25. You can leave comments and nominations over there or here. For the sake of competition, luckily Brady Quinn […]

‘Caddyshack’ is widey regarded as not only one of the top sports-comedies of all time, and not only one of the top sports-films of all time, but one of the top comedies of all time. But one of the movie’s big names, gopher-chasing Bill Murray, likely isn’t laughing too hard (or maybe he is) after […]

Talk about pressure. Bridget Moynahan gave birth to Tom Brady’s kid Wednesday night – and it was a boy. Cut to 2024 when this kid is supposed to be throwing touchdowns for his high school while modeling in Milan on the side. Oh, how tough it is to have good genes and a solid pedigree. […]

I didn’t get to see Brady Quinn’s maiden voyage into the NFL live. And I was surprised by the accolades being showered onto him after going 13-of-20 for 155 yards and 2 touchdowns. Maybe, just maybe, I got this guy wrong. Oh me of little faith. I have to believe none of the people showering […]

“Pro Football Prospectus 2007” is one of those rare books that successfully marries detailed statistical analysis with enjoyable writing. A must for any NFL fan and any fantasy football player, the 500-page book is chock-a-block with detailed breakdowns of all 32 teams, plus all skill players in the league. “Pro Football Prospectus 2007” is one […]

We have all seen the last of Michael Vick in an Atlanta Falcons uniform. That’s no big shocker. But what many still haven’t figured out is that we’ve seen the last of Vick in the NFL. Next Monday, as Monday Night Football visits Atlanta, he’ll plead guilty to some charges that link him to dog […]

Jim has been trying to get me to visit the Catskills with him and his brother for years. I finally did it this past weekend and was blown away. For those in New York City, I dare say it’s a “must” to wind down after a long, hectic week of work. In the small village […]

I have been listening to NFL Radio’s training camp tour on Sirius for the last couple of weeks. Adam “annoying guttural inflection” Schein and Solomon Wilcots have done a pretty good job hitting most of the NFL’s training camps and getting some great interviews with top-name talent at every camp. They loved the Baltimore Ravens […]

Salon does Outsports: Salon sports columnist King Kaufman is one of our favorite sports writers. He’s smart, witty, knows his sports, and he’s very gay-friendly. He’s straight as an arrow, having just moved his family to the Bay Area from St. Louis, but he is engaged by gay issues in sports, and he addresses them […]
