Hall of Fame football coach Mike Ditka wearing UGGs

Watch out Tom Brady…. it seems legendary football coach Mike Ditka maybe your competition as the new spokesman for UGGs. Ditka might just be the only guy to win a Super Bowl as a player, assistant coach and coach and wear UGGs. Bear Down!

British hockey teams in bench clearling brawl

British hockey teams the Coventry Blaze and the Nottingham Panthers of the “Elite” Hockey League can be seen in the video above in a good old fashion bench clearing hockey brawl. One’s first reaction is probably that of disbelief hearing English play hockey, but when you remember how bad their teeth are it makes sense since they don’t have to worry about any teeth getting knocked out in a fight!

Jenn Sterger wants Favre suspended

Jenn Sterger is not going down without a fight! The former NY Jets sideline reporter who has accused Brett Favre of sending inappropriate text messages now wants the league to suspend the NFL quaterback or else….

Sterger’s manager Phil Reese told Sports Illustrated’s Dan Patrick Show:

“If the commissioner suspends Favre and puts a program in place to prevent it from happening again…100 percent, Jenn would not pursue any litigation against Favre, against the Jets, against the NFL. Nothing. All she wants to do is clear her name. This is not about money.”

During the interview, Reese also addressed many rumors surrounding the investigation, including that Sterger only texted Favre to see if it really was the legendary quaterback saying, “If this is you, the least you could do is smile instead of giving me that creepy stare every time that you pass by.”

Reese also insists it was Favre’s camp who wanted to pay off Sterger contrary to previous reports. The night before Deadspin released the photos, Favre’s agent Bus cook contacted Reese, “He [Cook] asked me is there a specific figure that you had in mind to make this go away.”

Sterger also faces another tough loss… she is behind in our voting for Jersey Chaserof the Year. Help a girl out!

Oakland University mens basketball team played with women’s ball

During last night’s University of Illinois vs. Oakland University men’s basketball game, Illinois realized they were playing with a women’s basketball seven minutes into the first half.

A men’s basketball is one inch smaller and two ounces lighter than a woman’s ball. But no one noticed the difference in size until Illinois guard Demitri McCamey complained to the refs. The officials did not believe McCamey and his teammate center Mike Tisdale had to help convince the refs of their mistake.

Women’s ball or not, the Fighting Illini won the game 74-63.
