Fellow Jamaicans calling Usain Bolt the next Tiger Woods because of his Caucasian girlfriend
May 4, 2012, 6:20 PM EDT
Usain Bolt has been photographed smooching with Jamaican-based Slokvakian fashion designer Lubica. That shouldn’t really be big news, except that Bolt’s fellow Jamaicans have made it big news. Lubica, you see, is Caucasian, of Slovakian descent, and some Jamaicans are upset that Bolt is dating outside of his race. Comments from a story on the…

From Dinner Roll to Ninja Warrior, Jonny Moseley still taking it to the extreme
May 4, 2012, 4:20 PM EDT
Jonny Moseley mastered the Dinner Roll, but he’s still a little wary of the Rolling Escargot. The former is his signature ski trick, which he invented in 1999 just after winning a gold medal at the ’98 Winter Olympics. The latter is an event in the TV show American Ninja Warrior (Take a look at…

Fox News guest uses football, fraternities to explain Newt Gingrich endorsement of Mitt Romney (video)
May 4, 2012, 12:23 PM EDT
If you saw The Colbert Report on Thursday, you no doubt are still baffled by Republican strategist Dee Dee Benkie’s explanation of why Newt Gingrich is endorsing Mitt Romney. Benkie appeared on Neal Cavuto’s Fox News show and gave a rather disjointed sports analogy, which Colbert replayed. I have to say, I had no idea…

NY Post columnist goes off the rails on Jay-Z: ‘Why the Brooklyn Nets when they can be the New York N——s?’ (with update)
May 4, 2012, 11:03 AM EDT
New York Post columnist Phil Mushnick is a longtime critic of Jay-Z’s co-ownership of the Brookyln Nets — plus, I’m guessing, he’s not much of a rap music fan. But this may be a little much. In his column today, Mushnick suggested that Jay-Z go all the way with his black-and-white marketing motif and, well,…

America’s tallest man gets fitted with new shoes by Reebok … guess what size?
May 4, 2012, 10:05 AM EDT
If he was in the NBA he’d be the tallest player in the history of the league — larger even than Gheorghe Mureşan and the late Manute Bol, both 7-foot-7. Igor Vovkovinskiy doesn’t hoop, but at 7-foot-8, the Rochester, Minn. resident (via the Ukraine) is the tallest living person in the U.S. Another claim to…

Morning Mail: Hold that flight! Cheerleaders entertain stranded passengers at Chinese airport
May 4, 2012, 9:00 AM EDT
Alternate headline: A little song, a little dance, sorry your flight’s been delayed to France. It’s reported that that almost one out of every four flights at Chinese airports is delayed, so how do you distract and entertain frustrated and weary travelers? Well, not even the communists will resort to mimes. So at Dalia Airport…

Rick’s Cafe: Occupy first base! Tim Welke, baseball instant replay and you
May 3, 2012, 6:31 PM EDT
Major League Baseball’s refusal to leave the Paleozoic Era and evolve peacefully has been somewhat amusing up until now. But on Wednesday we were reminded of just how creaky and derelict the game actually is. That’s when umpire Tim Welke blew a call at first base so egregiously that it startled deer in Kenya. Remember…

Stupid Pet Tricks: Karl Alzner returns from Caps’ triple-OT playoff loss to find his dogs had trashed his house
May 3, 2012, 3:31 PM EDT
Bad dogs! Ha … check out this photo. While Washington Capitals’ defenseman Karl Alzner was losing to the New York Rangers in triple overtime on Wednesday, his dogs were #winning, as Charlie Sheen would say. Next time, may I suggest a dog sitter?

The strictest little cheerleader tryouts in Texas … parents revolt over HS rejections (video)
May 3, 2012, 2:33 PM EDT
Colleyville Heritage High School is looking for a few good girls for its cheerleading team. Very few, as it turns out. The Texas high school (near Dallas-Fort Worth) has 2,400 students, but could find only 19 who were deemed good enough to make the cheerleading squad. Even though 39 girls tried out. As a result,…

The Derrick Rose-Titanic mashup is very sad, but your heart will go on (video)
May 3, 2012, 12:49 PM EDT
Like Leonardo DiCaprio in the great 1997 movie Titanic, I think all Bulls fans were left hanging on a plank in the middle of the Atlantic after Derrick Rose went down with an injury against the 76ers. Watch the video below for a dramatic reenaction of that tragic day. I promised myself I wouldn’t cry…

Mayweather rants on Pacquiao: ‘You all think I’m a coward? Well guess what? I’m a rich coward’
May 3, 2012, 11:38 AM EDT
Floyd Mayweather kind of lost it on Tuesday, and I guess that’s somewhat understandable. He’s got a big fight against Miguel Cotto on Saturday, and then it’s off to the hoosegow for a two-month vacation (actual incarceration time may vary). Meanwhile, he continues to be dogged for his refusal to fight Manny Pacquiao. Maybe all…

London welcomes you to the 2012 Olympics! (I’ll arrive by ship, thank you)
May 3, 2012, 10:46 AM EDT
Attention, Olympic travelers! Thought you should read this: Elite fighter pilots say they are ‘trained and prepared’ to shoot down a hijacked passenger plane to prevent a 9/11-style suicide attack on the Olympics. Four Typhoon jets will be on standby to intercept ‘rogue’ aircraft intent on causing carnage at London 2012. I didn’t see that…

Top Italian soccer coach fired for punching sarcastic player (video)
May 3, 2012, 9:51 AM EDT
Sarcasm in soccer: when will the madness end? Imagine if Dan Uggla made a snarky gesture toward Fredi Gonzalez, and the Braves’ manager then began punching him in the face. That’s basically what happened during am Italian Serie A match on Wednesday, as Fiorentina head coach Delio Rossi was fired for punching his own player,…

May 3, 2012, 9:00 AM EDT
No one was more excited about the Grizzlies’ win over the Clippers on Wednesday than O.J. Mayo, who scored 10 of his 20 points in the fourth quarter for Memphis in its 105-98 victory. Wait, check that … the kid below was more excited. Barely an hour after the game, this animated GIF began racing…

We’ve already gone over a few of the features that Elin Nordegren will include in her new North Palm Beach, Fla., mansion, but now construction is officially underway, and there are some additions that have come to light. Can you say, Zen-like koi pond? This is the 9,000-square-foot oceanfront home, you’ll recall, that Nordegren purchased…
