Yahoo’s Post Game blog has put together a collection of yearbook photos of some of the most famous athletes in the world, and the results are predictably entertaining.

There was no more stunning storyline over baseball’s offseason than Cliff Lee’s decision to join the Philadelphia Phillies. He certainly got Sports Illustrated’s attention.

As you’ve probably heard, last night we were hit with the sudden news that Keith Olbermann’s MSNBC program, Countdown, is over. With that in mind, let’s take a look back at some of Olbermann’s more recent sports-related segments.

When the Philadelphia Phillies allowed outfielder Jayson Werth to sign with the Washington Nationals, ostensibly over money concerns, only to sign pitcher Cliff Lee to a lucrative deal shortly thereafter, many wondered: what did Werth think of that? One Youtube user took a stab.

In the age of Twitter, we’re all privy to more information than ever…but so much of it is inaccurate that many adopt the strategy of almost never believing what they read. Problem is, eventually some wild-sounding rumor will be true…and you’ll look bad for not believing it.

Cliff Lee shocked the world last night and chose to sign with the Philadelphia Phillies over the New York Yankees and Texas Rangers. It’s the kind of moment the New York tabloids live for…and the New York Daily News delivered.

In a shocking move, Cliff Lee will reportedly spurn lucrative offers from the Texas Rangers and New York Yankees to return to the Philadelphia Phillies, with whom he finished the 2009 season.

The Daily News’ back page, unsurprisingly, is not downplaying the incident.

Rather than project an image of Defcon 1-level panic, the New York Post is taking a decidedly measured approach on the day of the Yankees’ elimination game 6 against the Texas Rangers.

Whether it’s being criticized for ordering his listeners to overload a popular sports blog, or getting called a liar by one of baseball’s best pitchers, there have been times when it seems like everybody hates Colin Cowherd.
