Will Ferrell stops by ESPN to chat with some guy we’ve never seen before

Will Ferrell is a very revealing guy and we’re not just talking about his the tiny short shorts he wears in his new flick Semi-Pro. For instance, did you know he has some sick post moves, he sweats a lot and Glenn “Big Baby” Davis patterns his game after Mr. Ferrell? See, you actually can learn something from the morons on ESPN.

Tattoos are a great way to show team spirit, but they DO NOT always make you look cool

In this sports-crazed world we live in, there are four kinds of fans. You’ve got your “casual fan” that watches for fun and usually waits until the playoffs or the bowl season before getting into the spirit. The second type is the true “fan of the game”. These are the people who keep up with sports in general, but don’t really have a loyalty to any particular team, choosing instead to love the game as a whole. Then there are the “super fans” – a.k.a. the obnoxious, annoying, in-your-face, one-trick ponies who worship the ground their particular team walks on. The last group is this guy.

After the Pats got shocked in the big game, Victor went back and had a dark-tinted face shield tattooed over his eyes to cover his tears of humiliation.

Open wide, it’s time for a Spalding sandwich

We’re not the biggest volleyball fans in the world, but for some reason we always seem to find ourselves on the edges of our seats whenever we come across a match. We’ll sit motionless and stare for hours in anticipation of that perfect, glorious moment when one player makes an ideal set and another soars above the net and delivers a 100 mph spike right into their opponents’ grill.

It’s basically the slam dunk of the volleyball world and there’s no sympathy in slamming or spiking – you get a facial and you will get laughed at.

Barry Bonds and Roger Clemens might be cheaters, but have you considered the alternatives?

Everybody is up in arms these days about steroids in professional sports, especially baseball. Now, we’re not condoning the use of illegal substances, but, in our opinion, it has gotten to a point where removing steroids and growth hormones and bull sperm or whatever else they use would actually be a disservice to the game. Just look at what happened to this L.A. Dodger after he gave up the juice.

Now, is that really so much better than guys looking like Shrek while jacking homers and throwing no-hitters?

We’ve heard of blood on the ice, but chunks on the court is a first for us

A funny thing happened before halftime of the Maryland/Virginia Tech basketball game last night. With under a minute remaining in the opening period, Hokies freshman Dorenzo Hudson barfed all over the court while Maryland was at the charity stripe. We could go into detail about the whole thing, but you know what they say: a picture is worth a thousand words. So, a moving picture must be worth about a thousand “ewwwwww, grosses”.

But some great things came out of this, mainly quotes. Here’s a sample of the responses Dan Steinber of D.C. Sport Bog picked up at the game.

THAT’S DIS-GUS-TING,” the student section began chanting.” …

“I got a whiff of it,” confirmed Maryland fan Russ Dlin, seated in the front row. “It smelled like puke, is what it smelled like.”

Others were more descriptive, and again, feel free to look away.

“I thought he got hit by a drink,” said Gary Harraka, also from the front row. “It just went squirting out. It was pretty disgusting.”

“He was going into his shirt, but it was still flying up,” said senior Greg Weller.

“He was holding his mouth and it sprayed up in the air,” said senior Dan O’Keefe.

“It sprayed at least two feet in the air,” agreed senior Clark Johnson.

“That was mostly liquid, though,” Weller chimed in. “First he blew out mostly chunks right there, then when he started covering up it started deflecting off his shirt.”…

“I was on the bench but I seen him lean back and I was like, ‘Aww, mannnn,’ ” Deron Washington said. “It was more funny than gross. We was laughing. I couldn’t focus for a few minutes ’cause he did that….That’s a first time for me. It was pretty hilarious….I started laughing, then I started getting a little queasy, but we just started clowning him after that.”

Oh, and Thorns did tell Kilgore what the pre-game meal was. “Same thing we always have,” he said: “steak, mashed potatoes, macaroni and cheese.

When good dunks go bad

Dwight Howard thrilled the world over the weekend by putting together a series of dunks that will be talked about for months and years to come. Apparently, that got the guys at on 205th thinking and they put together “The 22 Worst Dunks Ever”. Great idea, but somewhat sloppily executed considering there are only 13! Anyways, it’s still a great compilation worth checking out. Here are two of our favs:

Floyd Mayweather faces his BIGGEST challenge to date, even if it’s fake

Floyd Mayweather doesn’t need any cheap gimmicks to keep his name in the headlines or to remind people that he is the best pound-for-pound fighter in the world, but that didn’t stop him displaying his twinkle-toes on Dancing With the Stars. On Sunday, he did it again by hopping in the ring with The Big Show at the WWE pay-per-view No Way Out. In case you haven’t heard, Mayweather teed off on the big fella and broke his nose, leaving one pissed off, bleeding giant wanting revenge. On Monday Night RAW, Show got what he wanted when he convinced Mayweather to take him on in a wrestling match. We don’t know how the WWE plans to spin this thing, but it should be interesting to watch. Hopefully, just hopefully, it ends with another flurry of fists; just like it started.
