"How To Get Kicked Out Of A Baseball Game" put The Horace Grant Halftime Report on the map. The traffic on this site during that week was unbelievable. So, I thought to myself, how in the world could I ever continue this momentum and capitalize on the fame? Hmmm... Well, what the hell? Let's do it again.![]() | ![]() |

| As we discovered earlier this week, the Horace Grant Halftime Report (written by “The Drew Franklin”) is the funniest sports blog that you’ve never heard of. Except it’s not just the funniest sports blog you’ve never heard of, it’s the funniest sports blog that nobody’s ever heard of, apparently. This guy is going to be giving Deadspin a run for its money in a few years, people and we’ll be able to say we “knew him when.” Seriously, it’s like that time we saw Dave Matthews Band perform in front of fewer than 500 people at the Sewanee gym in 1993 – except this time we’re not high.* |
In all honesty, I really appreciate the support from FITSNews. (That means go to his site now and like it.) Am I the next Deadspin? Highly doubtful. But I can always try. I appreciate the 20 of you that like what I'm doing and I will try my best to entertain. But if things don't start showing promise soon, I'll probably just make the switch to hardcore porn. Who doesn't like porn?
I wish I knew how to explain this video but I just don't know. Stephon Marbury is sitting at his computer listening to the song "Lean On Me" by Kirk Franklin (no relation that I'm aware of) and apparently it hits a soft spot. Starbury cries his eyes out while some guy rubs his shirtless back. As the song ends, Marbury stands up, wipes his eyes and leaves the screen - my guess is to probably go curl up with the mystery man, eat a tub of Rocky Road, and watch Waiting To Exhale.
Now, I'm not knocking Marbury for crying while listening to a song. I can't make it all the way through Lou Bega's "Mambo No. 5" without breaking into tears wondering why I don't have a little bit of Monica in my life. But, I would never record myself in the act of being a pussy. Especially with another man consoling me. What in the hell is Steph doing? Good luck returning to Brooklyn after this one. You are now officially on suicide watch.
Do you know the length of a basketball court? Do you know what position Chris Collinsworth played for the Bengals? Do you know who won the 1999 Homerun Derby? Do you like strippers? Do you really, really like strippers?
Mark Buehrle just threw a perfect game against Tampa Bay, one of the best scoring teams in baseball. Dewayne Wise made a spectacular catch to rob Gabe Kapler in the ninth to seal the deal for the perfect game.
If we got anything out of the SEC Media days, it is this - Tim Tebow is a virgin, he always has been. According to Clay Travis, Tim Tebow said this today: "You know how when you grab a woman's breasts...it feels like...a bag of sand." Wait, wrong quote. He said: "I'm saving myself for marriage."![]() | ![]() |
"Hey Tim, don't let him bother you man. It's okay not to have sex. Not everybody's a p*ssy magnet. You,...uh,...what are you, a freshman?
"I'm a senior."
"Holy shit man, you got to get on that!"
"Gidget", the dog we all came to love in the Taco Bell commercials, tragically died on Monday, July 21, 2009. Coincidentally, Michael Vick was released from federal custody on Monday, July 21, 2009. Does this mean Vick killed the precious chihuahua? Not necessarily. But The Horace Grant Halftime Report is on the case:
By now you have heard about the Erin Andrews peephole video. Everyone wants to get their hands on it. You can google for hours upon hours but you're only going to end up finding blue balls and a computer virus. It is the hype of the Jordan Crawford dunking on Lebron James video plus a nice rack and sweet ass with a little too much voyeurism. No one has the balls to post it online anymore because ESPN lawyers are threatening to press charges on anyone and everyone and take the whole internet down in the process. It is virtually extinct. And for those that claim they don't want to see it because it is an invasion of privacy- shut up. You either saw it, or you dedicated a whole night trying to find it.
You know it must be interesting when I am writing about a soccer sponsorship. Endorsements are everywhere in soccer and in order to stand out amongst the crowd, your marketing department has to come hard. Well, Burger King's did. They took a traditional goal celebration and made it awesome. So next time Julio, Juan, Jorge, or Jose score a goal, be prepared for greatness.
The 2010 soccer jerseys of Spanish club Getafe will be emblazoned with the BK logo. But the jerserys have a secret: the King's face is on the inside of the shirt for those dramatic goal-scoring moments.
What does one of the greatest athletes in the world eat before a morning of sit-ups in the driveway? T.O.'s - the low fat honey nut toasted oat cereal endorsed by Terrell Owens! Hey kids, if you want to be big and strong, drop passes, and make an ass out yourself in press conferences, this cereal is for you! Go buy a box of T.O.'s today!
Tony Romo just got done hogging and has moved on to a new genus in the female kingdom - puma concolor (the cougar). Rumors are swirling that Tony Romo hooked up with 43 year-old actress Michelle Johnson just days after his split with that chick from that popular reality show (think it was Celebrity Fit Club). Anyway, he is single now and AllieIsWired.com has the scoop:I'm not a fan of Tony Romo but I must say that, as a fellow cougar hunter, I am very impressed with his antics. Romo is proving to the world that you can't be too rich and famous to drink too much vodka and go home with a woman old enough to be your mother. Let's all lift our glasses to Tony Romo, for he is one of our own.
Kudos to TMZ.com for releasing the most infamous flush in Ohio basketball camp history but the quality was atrocious. It was from the opposite end of the gym and looked like it was filmed through a flip phone. Luckily, ebaumnation.com has released a much better version of Jordan Crawford's 3 seconds of fame. This one actually makes the dunk look somewhat impressive but still not better than anything Vince Carter has done in the olympics.
I guess the original "only two photographer" story is garbage. Footage is about to start coming out from all angles of the gym. It's like that girl on Spring Break that promises to strip down to her panties and make out with her friend on top of the bar if every guy around them promises not to pull out their camera phones. A week later, her dad stumbles across her videos on DrunkChix.com. I'm just sayin...
TMZ bought the overhyped video from the third cameraman on the grassy noel. Apparently, this mystery photographer has been shopping the video around for weeks and TMZ gave up an undisclosed amount for the clip. Just as I expected, it is nothing special. This video does nothing more than make Lebron look like an even bigger bitch for hiding the tapes. The dunk is not spectacular. Lebron was just lazy in his defensive assignment and got beat in the lane. Then he had to go all Erin Andrews on us and demand that the video be removed. Pussy.
What a great breaking news report by this Toledo news station. Way to uncover this story.
The Horace Grant Halftime Report is finally making some noise in this volunteer universe they call blogging. Thousands of people with nothing important to do take time out of their busy day in their parent's basement to read my wisdom. But for the handful of you that were here from the beginning, you know I have one passion - teachers having sex with students. Mmmm... I'm getting all rowled up thinking about it. With that being said, I bring you the newest chapter in the book of pedophilia...
I woke up this morning to Rod Stewart on my radio and Tom Watson leading
While 97% of the country is in theaters right now watching that movie about the boy that gets molested by wizards, I am doing much more importants things...like, not paying $10 to watch a boy get molested by wizards (that is what the internet is for). BleacherReport, however, looks like they have given into this Harry Potter phenomenon that the world falls in love with every two years. My guess is that someone either got really high while watching TNT or they forgot to log out and their 10 year-old daughter wrote this, but either way, they picked their favorite athletes for a fictional pro Quidditch league. Michael Vick and Albert Pujols are just a few that made the fantasy team. Also, coming soon from The Horace Grant Halftime Report - athletes most likely to sleep with Hermione.
The Los Angeles Clippers are in talks with Allen Iverson and it is believed that L.A. is the new favorite for A.I.'s services. From the L.A. Times:This 11 year old basketball phenom trains 4 hours a day, 7 days a week. He does 200 pushups every night before bed and runs a 4:15 mile. Luckily, he doesn't own a cell phone...yet. Tim Floyd and Bill Duffy are in the corner of a gym somewhere masturbating.
Former San Diego Padres #1 overall pick Matt Bush is arrested and loaded into a police cruiser after hitting a parked car. Bush, the former super prospect, has been in constant trouble since signing with the Padres in 2004. I wonder if all of his prior arrests are as funny as this one?

According to People Magazine, Tony Romo dumped Jessica Simpson the night before her 29th birthday. It was reported last month that Cowboys offensive coordinator Jason Garrett told Tony Romo to lose weight so he will be in better condition for the 2009 season. I don't think this is what Garrett had in mind.![]() | ![]() |
Shaq tweeted this video last night and it is... ummmm... interesting. It is from the Miami Heat days as you can tell by the court and the extra long knife fight with Damon Jones. Hopefully, this is the last Michael Jackson montage we come across for a long time. Let's hope it is the last time we see Damon Jones act too.
Oh Dear Jesus, someone pinch me. I don't believe my eyes. Hybrid Space Furniture has released "The Man Wall" and for those of you with $15K laying around it could all be yours. For the rest of us, we can always dream. ![]() | ![]() |

Unlike Lebron James, Kobe Bryant sets his campers straight. I guess it doesn't hurt that his campers are about 12 years old.
I can't hear this very well but does this kid call Kobe out? It sounds like he says "if you go to the Lebron camp... game over." I've listened to it a few times and I can't make it out but I think the youngster is a Lebron fan.
The following story took place on "Thirsty Thursday" at a Lexington Legends game in Lexington, KY. It is a Horace Grant Halftime Report original story and it is 100% true and bad ass.
As the last cup was placed to spell "#8 SUCKS BALLS + COCK", the Legends left fielder hit a grand slam into our section. It was an act of God. Every face in the ballpark turned to watch the ball go over the fence, but they got more than they expected as they saw our masterpiece. As the ball landed in the stands, the camera man zoomed in on the left field bleachers, not knowing what he was putting on the big screen. It was a success. Legends security sprinted down the field with trash bags in hand. I laughed so hard I shit myself. No seriously, I really shit myself. As did the thousands in attendance. Police graciously showed us the exit but the damage was done. In every minivan that left the park that evening sat a small child asking mommy and daddy what balls and cock were and why #8 sucks them. And as for #8, I'm sure he enjoyed it. His teammates in the bullpen were laughing harder than we were. One of the pitchers happened to be #8's roommate and he told us as we passed that they would never let him forget it. Well, you're welcome, #8. And to everyone else that was in attendance that day, you're welcome too. See you next Thursday.![]() | ![]() |
