Baseball's New Curses

With the White Sox and Red Sox both winning the World Series in the past five years, two of the big three baseball curses -- the Black Sox curse and the Curse of the Bambino -- have been relegated to the shrines of history.  Only the Cubs' Curse of the Billy Goat remains... and forever shall it be so.  Still, it's time to replenish the folklore of America's favorite Giant Excuse to Drink Beer Outside.  Pastime.  I meant pastime.  Let's take a look at the new curses.

Sports Personality Meltdowns

Sometimes you dig a hole for yourself that can't be undug.  Most of us do it in private, but if you're unfortunate enough to be in the public eye when it happens, you've jammed a foot in your mouth that can't be dislodged.  This list is reserved for those in the sports world who've said or done something so outrageous that they will never, ever live it down.

Evidently, There Is Crying in Sports

And it needs to end.  I'm not one of those guys who thinks men should just bottle up their emotions and never cry.  Sure, I think men should bottle up their emotions, but there is one instance I can think of, off the top of my head, when crying is perfectly acceptable:  if you are paralyzed and your cheeks are on fire.  Other than that -- and especially if you're a sports star on national television -- convert it to future anger.

An Open Letter to the NBA: End the "Foul and Chase"

Basketball is always evolving.  The National Basketball Association has throughout its existence been in a constant struggle to better its product and reputation through rule changes to increase the pace and excitement of games, revenue sharing to maintain a league-wide competitive balance, and even such misguided attempts at homogenization as a dress code for all players.  Yet they constantly overlook the bane of the league's existence.  It's the reason why the last minute of most games extend for a half hour of real time:  the unwatchable strategy known as the "foul and chase."

The Most Overpaid Players in Sports

This isn't about whether or not people who play professional sports make too much money.  By now, we should be able to understand that, yeah, they do -- but they wouldn't if we didn't spend so much money on them.  No, this is about the guys who get the big bucks who don't even deserve it relative to their crazily rich peers.

Who Will Coach Michigan?

It's not all that rare for a preseason top five team to have a disappointing season.  It's exceedingly rare, though, for such a team to have a disappointing season after losing their season opener to a team from the "Football Championship Subdivision" (I-AA).  It was that loss that laid the groundwork for Lloyd Carr's resignation (along with a fourth consecutive loss to Ohio State), and whoever replaces him is going to have to be well-versed in disasters if he's going to keep pace.

Sports' Devilish Deals

In 1938, Robert Johnson died from pneumonia three days after having been poisoned by strychnine.  It was said that Johnson had met the Devil at a crossroads in Mississippi and exchanged his soul for the ability to play the blues.  He couldn't have been the only one, so here are the sport stars who seem most likely to have made a Faustian bargain.

Hot Dog Champ Kobayashi Suffers Possible Career Ender

Jaw arthritis.  The man's jaw has refused to allow him to eat one more hot dog.  I hope competitive eating has a good pension plan.
