Serial Cheaters: Sex Addicts or Just Jerks?

I'm not a big sports fan, but I sure did hear about the big scandal with ESPN sports analyst Steve Phillips.

And now we got these screw-offs either fighting the giggles, making Freudian slips or throwing temper tantrums on the air. Score!  read more Read more

Competitive Eating Around the US

Most people have heard of Nathan's Famous Hot Dogs 4th of July competition - the one where Takeru Kobayashi shoves hot dogs in his mouth at lightening speeds - but did you realize that there are many different kinds of competitive eating contests?
