To truly enjoy the Vancouver Winter Olympics is to enjoy the imperfections. Sort of like walking to work in San Francisco. The weather isn’t always the best, and sometimes you see people yelling and crying for no discernible reason other than attention seeking. But the scenery’s pretty good,...

Got the NFL RedZone channel yesterday in a fit of fantasy football paranoia, and I couldn’t be happier. $5 a month on Comcast, who knew?!?! I probably would have paid about $50 to avoid the pair of football games we non-DirecTV NFL Package people had forced upon us yesterday. Raiders/Browns, followed...

Forget pondering whether the Warriors would have held the Clippers to within 30 for at least a majority of the game last night if Andris Biedrins and Ronny Turiaf weren’t injured. The more rational thing to do would be to imagine how badly the Warriors would have lost last night if Blake Griffin...

One of the main cliches of the past couple decades has been that 80% of NBA players are stoners. Could be true. Wouldn’t really surprise any of us, I’d imagine. But this Tim Lincecum should shed light on the group of athletes who either rival or surpass Michael Beasley in toking terms: MLB...

They go big in Oakland. Whether you’re talking about sideshows or sports FAIL. The Raiders would have dropped the hammer on Tom “At least I slapped her with an open hand” Cable already, except he’s taking the fall in an elaborate coverup of what really happened to Randy Hanson...

Remember the Dennis Erickson days? We all hated the Dennis Erickson days, mostly because they came with Ken Dorsey, Kevan Barlow and Terry Donahue. Terrible times indeed. One thing I’ll say for Erickson though, when the Niners were sucking at a historical level, at least he didn’t do a motivational...

Now Stephen Jackson wants out. That’s right, Jackson doesn’t want to be a Warrior anymore, because they (gasp) aren’t championship contenders. Even though the Warriors gave Jackson an obscenely massive and completely unnecessary extension and allow him to shoot threes whenever and wherever...

Introducing the Golden State Warriors, a team whose most recent problem is the veteran point guard they just traded for actually is healthy enough to play. Marcus Thompson II (who I’m pretty sure is the only actual beat writer covering the team these days, since Matt Steinmetz has gone national)...

If you want to check out an interesting video, check out this interview of Warriors GM Larry Riley from HoopsHype. The phrases “interesting video” and “Warriors GM” hardly ever go hand-in-hand, but Riley had some noteworthy things to say about what the Warriors need to add before...

It makes little sense to get too excited about Anthony Randolph’s record-tying 42 points in his last summer league game, since the man whose record he ties was Marcus Banks. Marco Belinelli tossed in at least a couple 30-point games in his summer league career, too. Still, it’s clear that...
