Dwight Howard makes fun of Patrick Ewing. Because he can.




Yeah, we know it's easy to hate the term "bubble" in college hoops. But you might as well prepare yourself because that's all you're going to hear for the next week. Following Cleveland State's big upset of Butler last night, the Bubble Watch is already well underway.

The WBC just got (kind of ) interesting with a major upset. The Dominican Republic, of the 22 MLB players, lost to the Netherlands, a country which, we believe, is somewhere near Holland.

Some very good comedy came to a head last night. Drew Magary on Deadspin had been (badly) impersonating Rick Reilly on Twitter. So badly, in fact, he deliberately spelled the columnists name wrong. But that didn't stop the real Rick from getting mad.

Bill Simmons writes a story that has almost nothing to with sports. Really. It's about the Oscars, and figuring out a statistic to rank actors like they were atheltes. So, if you care what Bill Simmons thinks about cinema, or if the Oscars have anything at all to do with what actors you like, click on over, we guess. Kinda. Whatev.

The Eagles seem to hording cap room and the Cardinals look to be getting rid of Anquan Boldin. This pro-Eagles Yardbarker blogger says a trade is in the works. Wait. What? The Cardinals are getting rid of Anquan Boldin? Why, because he catches too many touchdowns? The trauma of a winning season was too much for Cardinals fans to take? They must need another decade of ineptitude to calm themselves back down.

Jay Cutler is unhappy in Denver. Very unhappy. Then again, you get the sense Jay isn't a very happy guy, generally, as some poor, unsuspecting NFL locker-room is in San Francisco, Detriot or Cleveland may soon learn.

Bettorfan.com knows why the Internet exists. They've got a collection of Hollywood babes who were cheerleaders back in the day. There are eSportsGrinderven a few surprises. Reese Witherspoon and Sandra Bullock is no shock. But Fergie? What was she doing with the football team? A rocker chick like that should have been hanging out with freaks.

Finally, does it get any weirder that Fidel Castro blogging? Yes, Fidel Castro blogging about baseball.
