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.

If so, now's your chance, since ESPN has picked up the rights to air matches of the Pillow Fight League. What's more, the producers are pointing to how "nostalgic" pillow fighting is, and how we can all relive our youths by watching this "sport" ...
WTF?!
