Great Moments In Headline History
HEADLINE: "PTL a slam dunk for May" WHOA, WHERE ARE THEY GOING WITH THIS CRYPTIC HEADLINE?: Eric May wants to accomplish at least two things every time he plays in the Prime Time League. In addition to winning, May wants to put on a show for the fans. He did both Sunday in spectacular fashion. ...
It's Not Plagiarism If You Link To It: June 24
We're going to try to pick up the pieces after the news about Ed Thomas, which we're still in shock about. Here are some jokes; most of these were written before we heard the news, so none of this "now's not the time" business. Maybe it isn't, but it was the time three hours ago. Anyway. Don't do...
No, Kirk Ferentz Is Not The Best Coach In The Big Ten
...in bed. So, Tom Dienhart. There he is. Wicked 'stache, man. You might vaguely remember his name, since he was at TSN before they brought in actual, y'know, talent. He's not there anymore, now covering college football for Rivals and SI (for some reason). Well, he just released a ranking of the...
Someone Please Make Rick Chandler Stop Talking
You folks read Deadspin? You know the Deadspin? You know it's kinda started to suck now that they'll literally print anything you send them if it's salacious enough, even if there's probably not an ounce of truth to it? Well, somehow, their standards are getting worse. Step 1: Retarded, or just...

The Sporting News's Big Ten All-Freshman team released
As sports publications go, it's hard to find one more overrated than The Sporting News; while they've been around forever and yeah yeah yeah, any organization that hangs its hat on Tom Dienhart (last seen claiming that Kirk Ferentz wouldn't command a high salary from Michigan--no, seriously) is...
THE INTERNET IS SERIOUS BUSINESS
Press bashing is such an easy, obvious exercise that it normally bears little attention around here. Sure, we could move and rename the blog "Pat Harty Sucks," and we'd probably have material for four or five posts a day. Not a terrible idea, of course, but there's no emotional satisfaction or...
"Say What You Will About the Tenets of National Socialism, Dude, at Least it's an Ethos"
You thought we were tough on Brian Morelli's Carl-Monday-esque look at Facebook. From last Wednesday's Press-Citizen letters to the editor: The article on football players' facebook pages was interesting ("Alcohol abundant on players' sites," Aug. 23), in its association of disgusting misogyny...
