Great Oden’s Penis! The Return of the Slant & Go Podcast with Adam Jacobi

Heisman Trophy Winner {{w|Tim Tebow}}, before ...

A few short years ago Greg Oden and Tim Tebow were playing in the NCAA championship games in their respective sports. While the teams shared different fates, there was little doubt both of these young men would make headlines in the professional ranks. Little did we know Oden would be the *ahem* biggest story of the week (NSFW) for reasons entirely unrelated to basketball or that Tim Tebow’s first Super Bowl appearance would be in a commercial about abortion.

Oden is the latest entry on a long (and distinguished) list of male athletes that have exposed themselves for all the internet to see, which shows that sexting isn’t just for high school kids. Unfortunately, his penis snapshot has made more waves than anything he’s done on the court for the Portland Trailblazers in his disappointing career thus far. Tebow, a Heisman trophy winner and 2-time National Champion, has been a vocal Evangelical voice throughout his career but has managed to steer clear of controversy until now. Not only is his already precarious draft stock declining after a poor week of Senior Bowl practice, his Focus on the Family anti-abortion ad is causing quite a controversy that has become the biggest story of the off-week before the Super Bowl.

Joining me to discuss Tebow, Oden, Glee, marriage and a bevy of other subjects is Adam Jacobi of Buster Sports and the outstanding Iowa Hawkeye blog Black Heart, Gold Pants. Click here to listen: Slant & Go with Adam Jacobi

    About Me

    I am a man, not a machine. I'm also the namesake for Pyle of List, a liveblogger for SI.com, contributor of comedic stylings all around the interwebs (Deadspin, The Big Lead) and last but not least, proprietor of the Sexy Man Index for the feature "Voodoo Sabremetrics" on Babes Love Baseball... which ironically (using Alanis Morisette's loose understanding of the word) could be his best work. He's appeared on TV's "The Singing Bee" and in the background of several sporting events where my parents swear they saw him. I am also a part-time blogger, full-time lover and generally decent guy. If you ever meet me, I'll probably be wearing flip flops and will greet you with a kind embrace, not unlike that of long-separated brothers.
