Just Manny Being Manipulated

Sean Gentille — Fri, 03 Oct 2008 00:00:00 GMT-05:00

It seems like only couple months ago that Manny Ramirez was, according to everyone affiliated with the Red Sox, some combination of surly, crazy and stupid. Now, he's in LA doing what he does best--hit baseballs far and consistently--and everything is okay. ESPN.com's Bill Simmons doesn't want people to lose sight of the trade deadline fiasco, so he wrote a story and went on Outside The Lines to discuss it. Watch the video and read the story. PS - Simmons blames superagent Scott Boras.

Amare Stoudamire Has Made It ... To Nickelodeon

Or, perhaps more appropriately, he's made it to Nick Jr. We're not sure if that's higher up or lower down the pecking order. We are sure of one thing: It's no Sesame Street. Still, for Amare to be comfortable enough with his own skin to go on a kids show to do a dance called the "basketball dancey-dance" is impressive in and of itself.

Warren Sapp Can Really Cha Cha

Cameron Smith — Fri, 03 Oct 2008 00:00:00 GMT-05:00

We know, we know, this video is more than a week old. Well, eventually even we couldn't help ourselves, and this has to be the best of Warren Sapp's Dancing With the Stars offerings to date. Not only is the big man nimble, he's outright perfectly flirtatious with Kym Johnson, his partner and "the sassy blond who means business" and he keeps proving that he can adapt from week to week. Guess if you can memorize an entirely different game plan each week, learning one new step isn't too difficult, huh?

Tony Kornheiser Cannot Impersonate Howard Cosell

Tony Kornheiser can do a lot of things. He can go hyper-Jewish or hyper-sensitive. He can play a coy line or play hard ball in an interview. Evidently the one thing he can't do is a Howard Cosell impersonation. Kornheiser tries while narrating this Brett Favre montage, but he just can't cut it, and loses his stream halfway through.

Carey Price Enters The Matrix

Making the save of the season during the preseason isn't easy, but Canadiens G Carey Price managed to do that Tuesday night. You gotta love hockey crowds; they can sense something amazing happened, but they're not sure what.

Brian Scalabrine Does It All

Sean Gentille — Fri, 03 Oct 2008 00:00:00 GMT-05:00

Swollen hands, White House bathrooms, presidential aspirations...all in a media day's work for Celtics backup and beloved white person Brian Scalabrine. He actually confesses to "leaving (his) mark" on a White House toilet and YouTubing himself. God bless you, Scal.

Etch-A-Sketch Love for Cubs

Sean Gentille — Fri, 03 Oct 2008 00:00:00 GMT-05:00

We wonder how this guy will feel when the 100 hours of work he put into constructing this ridiculous Etch-A-Sketch masterpiece goes to waste, and the Cubs lose in three straight games against the Dodgers. Regardless, we can't take our eyes of Lou Piniella.

Pitt Upsets USF; Dave Wannstedt Stops Upsetting Pitt Fans

Thursday night football delivers a second straight upset, this time in the form of Pitt beating No. 10 South Florida. Pitt coach Dave Wannstedt and mustached men everywhere rejoiced in unison.
