What to wear. What to wear. It's a constant source of stress for women everywhere. Thanks to artist Jennifer Hitchner, there is finally the perfect outfit for a night at the ballpark. Meet the Baseball Dress. Hitchner used 130 game-used baseballs donated by the New York Mets to create this masterpiece. The artist is raffling off the dress and donating the proceeds to the Port St. Lucie Little League.
The Clueless Rapper
Rapper-turned-sometimes-sports-agent Jay Z once taunted the sports' biggest agent by saying, "Scott Boras, you over baby. Robinson Cano, you coming with me.” Sadly, Jay showed off his baseball ignorance at the Saturday Night Live 40th anniversary after-party when he confused David Wells for Curt Schillingand asked him about the bloody sock. Yikes. Speaking of SNL, Norm McDonald explained why Eddie Murphy didn't perform during Sunday's special.
The Toilet Plow
Just in case you needed another example that it's been a long, tough winter: The owner of a Maryland hardware store created a motorized toilet snow plow.
