Andy Samberg Impersonates Tennis Legends

Andy Samberg is one-third of the hilarious Lonely Island trio, along with his role as a regular on Saturday Night Live. The New York Times asked him to do an impersonation of several iconic tennis players, and he obliged. You already knew this would be entertaining, but the photos turned out quite nice as well. John McEnroe has appeared in

Blake Griffin is Funny or Die’s Newest Intern

While Delonte West rushed to apply to Home Depot once the NBA lockout got serious, Blake Griffin held out for a job that may turn out just a bit more interesting than suggesting a color of paint for a couple's bedroom. Funny or Die, the comedic brainchild of Will Ferrell and Adam McKay, brought in Griffin to intern. In other words, Griffin will

Kevin Hart Strips Shannon Brown »

Kevin Hart is well-documented for his hilarity and his short stature, but when he played one on one against Lakers guard Shannon Brown the trait that reared its head surprised just about everyone. The comedian held his own as Brown backed him down, and successfully stripped the ball right as the Laker went up with it. Lucky play? Probably. But

Charlie Sheen Takes Batting Practice in Arizona »

Charlie Sheen's schedule is pretty spotty right now, so the lefty decided to make his way to Arizona for some baseball action. I've heard the phrase "winning" more than one too many times now, but Sheen looked pretty sharp when he took batting practice at Chase Field prior to the Mets-Diamondbacks game. Here's a video of the party icon

The Sporting Rave Podcast: Episode 15 (with guest Greg Upchurch)

Episode 15 of the podcast features Greg Upchurch, the drummer for 3 Doors Down! Greg is a huge Saints fan, so we started off with some NFC South talk, which progressed to the discovery of his Oklahoma Sooner fandom. As a Texas fan, I can honestly say he is an unbiased individual. NBA, college football and college basketball were also

Shawn Marion Photo-Ops With Sean Parker

Remember Justin Timberlake's character from The Social Network? Well, apparently, he's still relevant in real life too. Shawn Marion killed two birds with one stone by showing off his new haircut and his new cyber buddy Sean Parker via a twitpic, much to Parker's Facebook-based dismay. Blonde never looked so...red? No matter what Parker

Pee-Wee Herman Attends Dallas Cowboys Training Camp

The Dallas Cowboys are hoping to get on the right track, but it looks like Pee-Wee Herman has second thoughts about that. The odd comedian was spotted extracting laughs from Tony Romo and just having an overall good time with himself at the team's training camp  facilities in San Antonio. Apparently the majority of the players didn't

Olympic track star and USC alumnus Carol Rodriguez comes on the podcast to talk basketball, the life of an Olympian and getting accustomed to the different cultures in each country surrounding track and field.
