Watching the Titans vs. Saints game... chants *It's only preseason. It's only preseason. It's only preseason* sips unidentified drink and repeat.

The Samoa-Namibia rugby world cup match should just be all kinds of eye candy.

Woot woot! France v Spain for the Eurobasket Finals just as I wad hoping!

Both teams are basically NBA teams (all the starting 5 and most of the benches for both teams are either currently in or have recently been in the NBA including a few current NBA stars), so this should be an amazing Final. WooooooooT!!!!!!

7 Terrible Sports Achievements (That Will Never Be Equaled)

Rasheed Wallace retired with 304 technical fouls. He once had 41 of them in a single season, meaning that for an entire year he averaged one illegal temper tantrum every two games. The NBA actually instituted a rule in 2006 that players would be fined and suspended for a game after their 16th technical foul. When this did little to stop Rasheed Wallace's theatrical disbelief at every call against him, the league instituted a zero-tolerance policy regarding "demonstrative displays." Both of these rules were commonly referred to by the same name: "The Rasheed Wallace Rule."

Please don't confuse those with with the "Rasheed Wallace Rule" PizzaPapalis added when Rasheed was traded to Detroit that states "four pounds of marijuana is not a valid topping choice even if the customer brings it in his or herself."

Rasheed's behavior was so bad that the National Basketball Association had to constantly invent new ways to deal with him and even then, he still managed to get kicked out of a game for looking at a ref. Every time he was called for a foul, Rasheed Wallace behaved like an actor auditioning for the part of Fisherman Surprised By Sharktopus, yet after all those years and all those fouls, he was still 109 technicals behind Jerry Sloan. As a player and coach, that crazy bastard accumulated 413 of them. That means he's responsible for giving more opposing teams free points than even ...

... Rasheed Wallace.
