I Want This Jersey
The El Paso Chihuahuas unveiled their uniforms for 'Bark at the Park' Night on Aug. 3 and they are spectacular. In a related story, I have a Chihuahua (mix) and think anything involving that breed is spectacular.
The Bikini Bassmaster
Meet Delayne Collins, a Florida State alum, "bass angler and sport fishing enthusiast" who also knows her way around a bikini.
Lovely Lady of the Day
Erin Heatherton stopped by the office the other day for a SI Swimsuit casting call. Of course, this was the day I chose to work from home, so big win there for me. Anyhow, let's hope she's in next year's swimsuit issue. In the meantime, LLOD honors will certainly do.
Throwback Thursday: Teenage Eric Lindros Was a Jerk
Former NHL referee Paul Stewart is blogging for the Huffington Post and shared an interesting Eric Lindros story. Puck Daddy has all the details but to quickly summarize, Stewart called Lindros for a penalty, Lindros didn't like the call and after the game ripped up a bunch of posters Stewart wanted him to sign so he could auction off for charity. What a guy!
Now This is a Jim Boeheim Tattoo
I have no idea why someone would want an incredibly detailed leg tattoo of Syracuse coach Jim Boeheim. That being said, this is spectacular.
From the SI Vault

The NBA announced yesterday that teams that won the NBA Championship will wear a small gold patch on the back of their jersey. This led me to search for my favorite team portrait of a former champion, and it wasn't much of a contest. This shot of the 1978-79 Sonics is easily No. 1. Now if Commissioner Silver could just figure out a way to get a NBA franchise back in the Emerald City. For more classic sports photos, visit the SI Vault on Twitter.

Get Lost, Joe Buck
Derek Jeter has a message for the Fox broadcaster.
Joel Embiid is the Best
My favorite NBA rookie tries to score a date with Kim Kardashian.
Yasiel Puig is Petrified
He may be the game's most exciting rookie, but that doesn't mean he can handle a little thunder.
