sweet linkage

- Mad collection of beautiful GIFs

- Post-Gazette's list of Steelers bars by state

- Want to digitally archive the local front page coverage of major news and sporting events? Like The Boston Globe's headline for the 2004 World Series or Ocala, FL's coverage of Tropical Slut Fay (and Bret Michaels). Newseum is the answer.

- An excellent feature column from Motor Trend on the Secret History of Ferrari... including the origin of the shield, Enzo's signature, and Dario the driver,

- I haven't seen too much of the Olympics... but apparently Tiki Barber is putting on quite the display... and calling his co-anchor a "total medal c*nt". (Follow-up)

- A good TED talk on amazing sea creatures. Ridiculous octopus camo at the end.

- Man goat.

- Fantastic view of the impossible win.

- With Heath Ledger's remarkable interpretation in TDK... here is a brief (but thorough) history of the Joker's appearance. (I still need to see it in IMAX!)

- Here are some other comics coming to the big screen. Watchmen looks unreal and everything that has to do with The Avengers will hopefully come together nicely.

- Finally... Darren Aronofsky is doing a RoboCop remake?! OMG!

Here we go, ______! Here we go!

Congrats women's beach volleyball... yada, yada, yada. What's really important here is the Terrible Towel that made its way to Beijing! See it in the background?! (ESPN)

HERE WE GO, STEELERS! HERE WE GO!
