Must Read

by Ryan

One of the most interesting days in the history of the world was yesterday. Well, let’s not get carried away here, but it was an interesting day in the blogosphere for sure. Deadspin went a bit haywire and put ESPN directly in the cross hairs. If you haven’t heard about this, it’s best to read [...]

Eagles Sign Vick

By Chris
Now we can really put an end to all the speculation.
Short but sweet from Chris Mortensen:
Michael Vick has signed a two-year deal with the Eagles. His agent, Joel Segal, confirmed to ESPN.com.
And that’s that with that.

This Post Lacks a Tail

by Ryan
When ESPN fired up their brand new technology last night, hockey fans could only think of the past.
Big League Stew has a good recap of the novel experiment The Four Letter made us suffer through, which was met with lukewarm reviews. Of course, we all know the first incarnation of the glowing trail phenomenon.

I suppose the [...]

ESPN Kills Billy Mays, Brags About It

by Ryan

TAMPA, Fla. — Tampa police say Billy Mays, the television pitchman known for his boisterous hawking of products such as Orange Glo and OxiClean, has died. He was 50.
Authorities say Mays was pronounced dead Sunday morning after being found by his wife at home. There were no signs of a break-in, and investigators do not suspect foul play. [...]

Jock Washing and the Anti-Buffalo Bias

by Ryan
Being a Buffalo sports blog, we are pretty big homers when it comes to all things Buffalo. However, even we’re not sure what this is all about. Media Matters took offense to a Bill Simmons line from a mailbag a few weeks back. Here’s the entry:
There is one silver lining to Buffalo’s Cinderella season slowly falling [...]

Our Lights Out

“Whatever his name is…”
The Gotcha ESPN Media is finally starting to take real notice.Look out, Miami.

Tournament of Hearts

by Ryan

Sometime today Brett Favre will strap on the pads wherever the Packers have training camp. I’m not sure where they have training camp, but that’s mostly because I don’t give a crap.
I may be the only one, however. SportsCenter is going to have a special at camp watching for the moment he touches down on the [...]

0-2, 2 K

by Rich
I know hating on the Four-Letter is as fashionable in the blogosphere as Ed Hardy graphic tees and living in your mother’s basement, but I have to take the bait once in a while. Anyone else notice how hard the Bristol hype machine has been whiffing lately? Granted, they’ve been known to jump the gun [...]

On Pink Hats and the Bandwagon

by Ryan
So I’ve been staring at this quote for the past hour.
Sid the Kid, the return of Don Cherry, the old Flyers uniforms, Montreal self-combusting, the four-OT game, Bucci and Barry, Chris Osgood clipping the dude with the butt of his stick, HD telecasts, a Wings-Pens Finals … I have to admit, I’m enjoying the NHL playoffs. [...]

Leaping the Selachimorpha

by Ryan
Does anyone remember when ESPN’s Page 2 was good? I do. In fact, like many bloggers out there, Page 2 was my link to the underground. It was a different take on sports, one that reminded you of what you did with friends when watching the game. Bill Simmons was there, Dan Shanoff had the [...]

ESPN Got It Right

by Ryan
The four letter doesn’t cover the the ice that often, but their writing about hockey usually falls into three categories: 1) Suck (Frei), 2) Predictable (Burnside), and 3) Utterly Inane (Burnside and Cox together). However, someone in their arts department is spot on when it comes to collage construction. Check it out.

Oh yes, that’s our boy [...]
