Wow. This must be rock bottom for A-Rod. Because rock bottom certainly isn't located at any fine eating establishment within the great state of Florida.

Dr. Toboggan,

I agree he's going about it the right way, but really it was the only way. There is no wiggle room with that word. No dissembling or walking back what was said. You apologize and beg for mercy, and that's the way it should be.

The "Crotch Shot Ninjas" anecdote reminds me of a Texan father son duo from America's past. 1989-92 and 2001-08 to be exact. Those guys punched us all in the nuts.

Uh oh, looks like we may have another Tim Donaghy situation on our hands... JDate is a known haven for point shavers.

That rug really tied the room together.

There's a whole This American Life story, from three years ago, about dog-poo DNA testing. It's a real, live booming business, because of all sorts of uptight homeowners' associations (and inconsiderate dog owners). But it's controversial and embarrassing, too, so the threat of testing alone often does the trick.

Not to get racial, but a lot of these execs are coming from homes where drinking is normalised and then they go to college and enter mostly white frats and drink a bunch.

Yet another Bond-villain move by David Stern. Sure, we all know that he dictates every call made in every game, but this is classic reverse psychology. On the face of it, he would have to be an idiot to assign Joey Crawford to the game, since that will only arouse suspicion...but that's the cover! Now people—or should…

The fathead employees shouldn't be surprised when they see that the Tebow item they sent out comes back three days later.
