The two National League results aren't quite what most would have expected yesterday. The Colorado Rockies knocked off the Philadelphia Phillies to draw their series 1-1 heading to Denver - snow bound Denver - for a pair of games. More surprising was the LA Dodgers rallying for a pair in the 9th to come from behind and beat the St. Louis Cardinals to take a 2-0 lead in that series. Was Matt Holliday's error in the 9th karma paying him back for not actually touching home plate a couple years back yet seeing the run scored when he was with the Colorado Rockies a couple years back in a tie-break game?

Okay, we're nicely into the baseball playoffs now. Isn't it about time another steroid user from the famed 2003 List of 104 was revealed? Seems to happen anytime something big is happening.

I'm not sure how great I think Dollhouse is, but Eliza Dushku sure has me thinking about it each week.

A netball team, whatever that is, from Australia has been forced to change its name from "Master Baiters" as it is too risque. In response, thousands of slo-pitch teams with guys rocking #69 in the cleanup spot have hired a lawyer in preparation for a class action lawsuit if such bans start happening on this end of the globe.

It has been two days now since the Cleveland Browns shipped Braylon Edwards to the New York Jets after he slugged one of LeBron James buddies. Are you like me, and amazed that other Browns players aren't tossing punches at random C-Towners hoping one is a pal of LeBron's so they too can get off that disaster of a squad?

Back on April 10th, ESPN The Magazine's Rick Reilly made the mistake of saying he'd tongue bathe the Capital dome in Denver if the Colorado Rockies made the playoffs. Well, they did, and so he did.

Check out this great edit job that drops Roman Polanski on To Catch A Predator. If there was ever a doubt, let there be no more: the internet rules.

Below is your #2 Scariest Sports Riot. Not sure what I found more annoying, the commentator calling it the "U E F A" championship (calling out each letter) instead of the correct "you-eh-fa" pronunciation, or calling these Manchester fans when it was Glasgow Rangers and Zenit St. Petersburgh fans in to see their teams play. Do some research, Dramatic Voice Guy!

Eliza's sure come a long way from when she was on Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Very talented actress. And yes, she happens to be hot, too.

Card's been known for great starting pitching and solid defence this whole season, and now they've lost the first game on Carp not being on top of his game and the second on a defensive blunder from Holliday. Get a feeling that Pujols will go hitless with for SO the next one for the meltdown to be complete.

Great pressure on Pineiro now to keep the Cards in it. Carp and Wainwright a certain to start game 4 and 5 if it comes to that now.
