Pig Wrasslin’ Is Hard Without Pigs

I’m not sure what town would be considered the pig capitol of the U.S. and seeing as how there’s a “Falcon Crest” marathon fixin’ to start in a couple minutes, I don’t have the time to find out. I will say that Chouteau County in Montana made a huge push last weekend at the area’s County Fair when 30 pigs slated to be entered into the pig wrasslin’ competition pulled a Claude Rains and vanished.

There Are More Holes In Chelsea’s Game Than Anyone Could Have Anticipated

The Chelsea Blue have been under siege by a prankster sneaking into the team’s locker rooms and cutting holes in their underwear, thus leading the entire squad to explore an entirely new form of “futbol flopping” never before showcased on a pitch. They’re showing going nuts.

There’s also a ton of “ball control” and “sliding tackle” jokes that I’ll spare you. You’re welcome.

Sauna Championships, Competitor Both Meet Their Sweaty, Sweaty End

There are some amazing things going on in Finland, you guys. The low crime rate, the country’s robust potatoes. Not to mention the Finnish vodkas. But nothing tops Finland’s annual World Sauna Championships (or “Saun-a-thon 2010″ as I’ve been calling it around the office).
I’ll skip to the twist ending and tell you that the Championship concludes with the two finalists being taken to the hospital and only one coming out alive. Now I’ll Kurosawa my way back to the middle of the story and explain why this doesn’t make the WSC any less legitimate a sport.

Norwich City Beetles Trying To Pollinate Everywhere

England’s Norwich City changed their uniforms after last season, giving the Canaries a brighter, more vibrant “Brazilian” flair. Fortunately for Brazil, they don’t have millions of beetles looking to feed on pollen, or anything that looks like it might be pollen.

Unwritten Peepin’ Rule Broken By Rugby Photographer

Stealing signals has long been a part of American sports. Whether a guy with binoculars is in centerfield looking in on the catcher, Bill Belichick videotaping signs from opposing defensive coordinators, or studious players lingering around the opponents huddle during a 20-second timeout, it may not be legal or ethical, but it’s in the game.

There’s a new kind of sign stealing coming out of Australia recently – this time from Getty photographers who need a few unwritten rules written down, apparently.
