* Beer Pong – Not Just For Drunken Frat Boys Anymore. Oh, did I mention there’s $25,000 prize for the winner’s of the championship. No? Well, now you know. Not surprisingly the teams were comprised of t-shirted males in their 20s, with such inspiring names as Shot-Callin’ Ballers, Bus Boys (We Clear Tables), Drunkenballers, Drunk and Drunker, Fizz, We’re What Willis Was Talkin’ ‘Bout! and eventual champs, Drinkin’ Smokin’ Straight West Coastin’, from Sacramento.

* The Tennessee Titans Are Not Having A Good Month. Well, there was Vince Young, and a linebacker suspended for four games. Also, Rod Hood is out for the season with a knee injury. Could things get any worse for the Titans? Yep. Tennessee’s top draft pick this year, Derrick Morgan, was arrested for speeding and driving with a suspended license. [Second-String Fullback]
* Steve Nash’s First-Class Trip To The World Cup. Previously on That NBA Lottery Pick, we informed you that CBSSports.com had recently named former NBA MVP Steve Nash as it’s 2010 World Cup Correspondent. Well, the fine folks at CBS made sure that Nash had first class accommodations as he made the trip to Johannesburg. [That NBA Lottery Pick]
* Will Stanley Cup champ Blackhawks march in gay pride parade? Andrew Sobotka is hoping the team and the trophy will make another appearance on June 27, at the annual Chicago Gay Pride Parade. Sobotka is the president of the Chicago Gay Hockey Association, which has been around since 2002 and currently boasts around 40 members. It’s one of dozens of hockey organizations for gay players in the U.S., including one of the most successful associations in Madison, Wis. [Puck Daddy]
