Ask 100 random people who is most to blame for the child molestation scandal at Penn State, and I am guessing that after alleged pedophile Jerry Sandusky, you would probably get many if not most pointing the finger at “the guy who saw it but didn’t report it.” That guy: the now much despised and maligned Penn State coach Mike McQueary.

Earlier today, New York City radio host Mike Francesa played a clip of a 2007 interview with the man at the center of the Penn State sex abuse scandal, Jerry Sandusky.

In case you’re just joining us, Sandusky stands accused of doing lots of horrific things to lots of children between 1994 and 2009. Those things run the gamut from inappropriate touching to outright forced sexual intercourse. They are the worst things a person can be charged with doing to a child, and, if these charges are true, Sandusky has ruined at least eight lives (and possibly more).

When attending a baseball game you are bound to hear the PA announcer remind everyone to stay alert throughout the game for potential balls and bats landing in the seats. Being hit by such projectiles, if you will, is not uncommon to America’s past time.

Auburn University has many proud traditions. There’s the annual rivalry game with Alabama, played since 1893 and fondly referred to as “The Iron Bowl.” There’s Homecoming, when students and alumni gather together to crown a Homecoming queen and participate in events like the Omicron Delta Kappa Cake Race. There are the famous Toomer’s Corner pep rallies, in which students have been throwing toilet paper over two massive southern oak trees since the 1950′s.

In the past two years, Tiger Woods has gone through hell. He’s been the subject of a very public and very sordid sex scandal (or scandals, depending on how specific you want to be), has been injured numerous times, and has played the worst golf of his life.

Emotionally, physically, and professionally, he has hit the bottom. But on Sunday, when a man walked onto the seventh green at CordeValle and tried to hit him with a hot dog, we may have seen the weirdest moment of the Tiger Woods saga to date.

After the jump: raw footage of President Obama’s much-anticipated golf outing with House Speaker John Boehner. Yes, the president drives a golf cart.

The Miami Heat beat the Dallas Mavericks 88-86 last night, surviving several Mavs runs (and a last-second tying shot attempt from Dirk Nowitzki) to retake the lead in the NBA Finals. The Heat’s best player last night: Dwyane Wade, who recorded 29 points and 11 rebounds.

Over the weekend, MMA fighter Quinton “Rampage” Jackson won a fight, then did an interview with reporter Karyn Bryant. That interview was…well, it was. Here it is, with particular focus given to what happens after the 1:40 mark.

As 1050 ESPN New York radio host Jared Max left his Manhattan apartment yesterday morning, he had a decision to make. He would either go through the day like any other day, waking up at 1am, prepping for his show, arriving at ESPN’s offices, going on the air at 5am to talk sports, then wrapping things up and heading home.

Those Guys Have All the Fun, the highly-anticipated ESPN book by James Andrew Miller and Tom Shales, will hit shelves next week. We’ve been lucky enough to receive an advance copy, and throughout the day will be highlighting some of the books’ more interesting tidbits.

Keith Olbermann and Bill Simmons do not like each other. That much was made clear in March of last year, when Olbermann criticized a column of Simmons’ and said Simmons had “no discernible talent.” Simmons responded by calling Olbermann a “pious, unlikable blowhard who lives alone.” During Round 2, which occurred earlier this month, Olbermann called Simmons tasteless, and Simmons, in turn, made fun of Olbermann’s new employer. Fun!

Oh, Shannon. Shannon, Shannon, Shannon. Had you never tweeted that exclamatory denial about not sleeping with Pau Gasol’s girlfriend, you would have never given the mainstream media an opportunity to discuss said denial, thereby giving them an excuse to discuss the very rumory rumor that you were denying in the first place.

We’ll admit it – when Donovan McNabb’s agent, Fletcher Smith, released a statement condemning boxer Bernard Hopkins’ nonsensical questioning of McNabb’s blackness, we thought that was it. Smith said all that had to be said (since McNabb elected to remain silent), pundits got in their shots at Hopkins – controversy over.

It was just adorable of us to believe that.

Local Albany news anchor Elisa Streeter apparently thinks it’s reaaaal funny when a guy gets trapped under a tarp and is left to die by his co-workers.

We got an email asking when we would weigh in on this latest Bill Simmons-Keith Olbermann Twitter dustup. Ugh, fine. Truth is, I’m never much for media fights like this or this (or the first Simmons-Olbermann Twitter feud, for that matter) because they’re just too meta, too “we’re the most important people ever”-ish, too negative for the sake of negativity and just plain unfun. Again: ugh.

Dear Rush,

So glad I was able to provide you with a mid-morning chuckle. It’s not often a political commentator discusses our ragtag sports blog. So you can understand how happy I was, as I looked over our real-time analytics and saw that a few more people than normal had gotten to SportsGrid by searching “dan Fogerdy obama bracket dumb,” to realize that we had somehow finagled our way into the political discourse.

Hey, remember when everyone said President Obama was wasting his time filling out an NCAA tournament bracket while the world fell apart around him?

In the aftermath of the announcement of Osama bin Laden’s killing Sunday night, just about everyone had some sort of reaction. Most were of the celebratory variety, but a few weren’t, and that included athletes. We covered one such reaction yesterday morning, but later, an even more controversial “athlete on bin Laden” take emerged…this one from Pittsburgh Steelers running back Rashard Mendenhall.

What could be more American than winning the WWE championship after a steel cage match? How about winning the WWE championship in a steel cage match and then telling a crowd of people that Osama bin Laden is dead?

An ESPN Outside the Lines investigation has revealed rampant gambling in a south Florida youth football league, and in some cases young players were paid based on performance.

TNT’s Inside the NBA crew got all dressed up in English attire the other night, and spent a segment discussing their thoughts on the royal wedding.

As you may have heard, Friday marked former SportsCenter anchor Josh Elliott’s final day on the job before moving on to ABC’s Good Morning America. It seemed to us that when Elliott’s move was first announced, there were nothing but kind words for the guy – which, of course, isn’t always the case.

Yesterday, the Knicks lost to the Celtics 101-89, their sometimes-promising but ultimately uneven season ending in a first-round playoff sweep. And while the loss – especially coming in sweep form – was disappointing for the Knicks and their fans, this was what was supposed to happen.

TNT analyst Charles Barkley apologized to Knicks head coach Mike D’Antoni and their GM Donnie Walsh during the 76ers-Heat halftime show last night for saying that D’Antoni would be fired.

In case you need a refresher on what Barkley’s apologizing for, here’s what he said during the pregame show for Game 2 of the Knicks-Celtics series:

Five years ago, an Edmonton Oilers crowd’s stirring rendition of “O Canada” became something of a viral sensation. One could feel the pride…not to mention hear it, because they were loud. And in addition to raising goosebumps, it raised a question: could any crowd, anywhere else, replicate that kind of passion for the anthem?

If you’d like to get a sense of the emotion the city of Sacramento feels towards the Kings, look no further than broadcasters Grant Napear and Jerry Reynolds. The veteran announcers fought back tears as they signed off, possibly for the last time ever, from Arco Arena last night.
