From bench-clearing brawls to Nigerian kickers…yes, it’s time for the SBA wraparound.

Shakedown Sports has the video (and recap) of the brawl this past week between North Carolina A&T and North Carolina Central. Notice how this one’s gotten practically no press at all? Where are the folks that trotted out and mewled so loudly at the sight of the FIU-Miami brawl last year?

Masslive.com finds proof that Jonathan Papelbon would really like to get naked. Really.

Lion in Oil points out why we don’t name American cities as hosts of big sporting events beforehand. I can see it now…Philadelphia is selected to host a neutral-site World Series, yet the fans vote to have the Phillies removed from the NL playoffs.

Sunday Morning Quarterback wants the running of the Bulls to be stopped, at any cost. Jim Leavitt, you’re on notice.

Plissken at the Buzzer breaks down the schedule…for the Memphis Tigers men’s hoops team. It’s time, baby!
