It seems like, all across the network, folks were up to no good. Maybe it was all the green beer from last weekend... Gothamist spent the week writing about New Yorkers behaving badly: at the post office, at the Garden, and at the fertility clinic. Calvin Klein may not be misbehaving, but he's just a little dirty, and in a completely different way than some NYC kitchens. SFist had its share of misbehave-rs, too, like......

--Eric Gillin, writing for Deadspin, posted one of the best summaries of the upcoming Red Sox season. Why was it so good? The author found a way to parallel each Red Sox player to a character in Major League II. Here's a taste of the article that compares Pedro Cerrano (a bulked-up Dennis Haysbert) to Willy Mo Pena and Manny Ramirez: "After not winning the ALCS, Cerrano returns to the team as a completely different......

We don't have Boston College to root for in the NCAA anymore, but a Boston College pennant has made quite an impact on the local media and BC's law school. A law student named Adrienne E. Reynolds posed for the free mag Barstool Sports, which specializes in sports talk and images of scantily clad women. On the cover of the "March Madness" issue, Reynolds was wearing nothing but a BC pennant and white briefs. Some......

We're guessing most of you are hungover from St. Patrick's Day. We are too. But still, we're going to muddle on through our green haze and give you (drum roll please...) this Week In -ists. We start with SFist which broke the -ist record for comments with nearly 500 comments on a post about our Mayor's girlfriend. She responded back on charges that she's not a "girl's girl" and, whoo boy-- the floodgates? They......

According to the Globe, our own Holy Cross was "prepared to get physical" against Southern Illinois in the first round of the NCAA tournament, but that's not quite how things turned out. According to other coaches, the Southern Illinois Salukis are absolutely terrifying. One guy said a team could imitate their defense if "We run down to the police station and we get all the German shepherd attack dogs and we just bring them onto......

We're eagerly waiting to see how our local NCAA matchups shake out. Boston College takes on Texas Tech and Bobby Knight tomorrow, and Holy Cross faces off against Southern Illinois on Friday. In the other big college basketball tournament, the NIT, the UMass Minutemen defeated Alabama in overtime 89 to 87. They'll advance into the next round to play West Virginia. So let's not forget the NIT in the face of March Madness. Speaking of,......

Ok, so let's say you're more into celebrity train-wrecks than college basketball Fafarazzi has some March Madness brackets just for you. We just went through and made our picks. It's a long shot but we're hoping for some unexpected nip-slip or Woody Allen fodder to get Scarlet Johansson to take the movie division. We've got her all the way to meet, and beat, Justin Timberlake in the Final Four in order to take on K-Fed......

The placement of the competitors makes about as much sense as the regions major league sports teams are put into, but it's still wicked funny. WBCN 104.1 FM is holding the March Sadness competition just ahead of March Madness bracket mania for college basketball. The tournament pits ugly foes in bracket competition. Randy Johnson is up against Chyna-Doll, Otis Nixon competes with Curt Warner's wife, Bill Walton takes on Reggie Miller, and our favorite......

After a weekend of green, beer, and basketball, Bostonist is drained. It all started for us 10 years ago when our Western Mass. roots were honored as UMass Amherst team went to the Final Four with Coach Cal. and Marcus Camby (who later cost the Final Four standing for “improper gifts” – jewelry and prostitutes). Since then we’ve faithfully filed out our brackets each season. Sometimes we pick the underdogs for an upset and sometimes......

To us, the perfect night consists of sitting in our favorite bar, chugging a Magic Hat #9 in between shots at the dartboard. That’s why Bostonist perked up when we read a recent Globe story about the World Series of Darts in May. Kindly, the Globe provided a graphic to explain regulations of a game of 501. Sure to draw all the die-hard darters from around the Hub, the World Series is no joke—it’s airing......

While most Bostonians are nursing a huge Irish hangover this afternoon, others are looking for something to do this weekend. Bostonist has scanned the scene and come up with some options for you. March Madness hits the Worcester area this weekend, with the first round of playoffs held at the DCU Center (since when did it change from being "The Centrum"?) where games are already in progress. A few of today's teams include Big East......

As if Bostonist needed anymore of a reason to park our asses at a bar to drink, not only is tomorrow St. Patricks Day, but it is also the first day of the annual rite of insanity, the NCAA Men's Basketball tournament - or the more common named "March Madness". They're not kidding either. Every year the promise of spring, that faint sign that yes, winter is over, is buoyed by the weeks of hardcore......
