This is what happens when you get excited about meeting a Power Ranger.

Funny, Sexy And Austin Cosplay Of The Week: The Best of Wizard World - Relive my hilarious/awesome/unnerving weekend at Austin Convention Center, asking people if I could take a picture of their costume. It’s my Gamma Squad debut (and probably the only thing they’ll ever let me write), so please don’t miss it. [Gamma Squad]

Frank Miller Is A Delusional, Curmudgeonly Old A-Hole - I’m with Vince on the “you’re a delusional asshole” parts, but not on the “your comics are bad” part or especially the “The Spirit was bad” part. The Spirit is so good and I’m living in an empty universe of people who agree. [Film Drunk]

ACW: An Appreciation - The best part of Wizard World for me was loitering around the Anarchy Championship Wrestling table and bothering the wrestlers. To the immediate right of this is my favorite wrestler in the world, Portia Perez, finger-painting something for me. My heart is on fire. [The Wrestling Blog]

Jay-Z Hails As GQ Magazine’s “King Of The Year” - I’m sure this will do wonders for his ego. [Smoking Section]

Don’t Worry Guys, Gina Wasn’t Pregnant - Whew! Now I just need to make sure Phoenix from American Gladiators hasn’t gotten pregnant and we’re straight. I’m going to go see your bad movie, Gina! [Cage Potato]

R.I.P. The Fake ‘Jack & Jill’ Twitter Account - I really wanted that EXCOOLSIVE ringtone. :( [UPROXX]

Football Guys: Mark Sanchez Comes Of Age - Jon uses his football version of The Dugout to make an extended joke about Mark Sanchez looking like Kevin Arnold in his Jets jacket. The kind of thing you should click and fawn over immediately. [SB Nation]

Coonskin Cap Witness: Florida or Ohio? - The best part of a coonskin cap is that we still call it “coonskin”, instead of just “stupid raccoon hat”. I think when you get to the point where you’re saying “I want to wear something’s entire body as a hat” you’re f**ked. [Warming Glow]

A Very Young Stephen Colbert In FirsTier Bank Commercial - His career lasted longer than that bank’s. [Buzzfeed]

10 Reasons Life in Skyrim Will Be Better Than Real Life - You know what I hate about real life? Not being able to stop every five seconds and scroll through a huge menu of options, then leave the menu, hit a button, then go right back to the menu. [Adult Swim]

The Men Who Camped Out for Twilight: A Photo Essay - The Greatest Generation. [FARK]

Remembering Eddie Guerrero - The “Hurt” video loses its emotional impact now that we see Chris Benoit and Vickie Guerrero as different people, but still, losing Eddie was the worst and we shouldn’t ever forget how great he was. [The John Report]

LOL, bye guys.

A Cruel End To A Surprising Season - Or as I like to call it, “the only good way for a season to end”. This is one of the few recaps of last night’s game coming out of New York to not feature the phrase “fill Yankee Stadium with the blood of our players and management”. [NY Times]

Adidas x Derrick Rose Behind The Scenes Of “The Bull” - This commercial would’ve been hilarious if it’d began with Rose being herded through the streets while people screamed and taunted him, then ended with him being stabbed to death by like four guys who aren’t even the bullfighter. [Smoking Section]

Football Guys: Arian Foster Analyzes Modern Traffic Infrastructure - If you aren’t reading Football Guys, Jon Bois’ football equiv to The Dugout, you are a dumb. I am geographically entitled to share every Football Guys about the Texans, btw. [SBN]

UFC 136 Cut List: 6 Fighters Who Need A Win Saturday Night - Don’t all of them need a win? I wish I knew how MMA worked. [Cage Potato]

The Path Of Mark Henry: An Inspirational Story of Splitting Wigs - From waste-of-time joke to the most hilariously awesome pro wrestler in the world, revisit the bizarre 15-year journey of The World’s Strongest Man, and try to forget about the whole “had sex with his sister” thing. [4th Letter]

CHIKARA Pro Wrestling In Tennessee - And speaking of wrestling, if you’re a wrestling fan who lives in NC or TN and you aren’t at this weekend’s CHIKARA shows, you need a lobotomy. KANA vs. Sara Del Rey, for crying out loud. If you’re there, be sure to find me and say hi. [CHIKARA]

10 Better Ways to Spend 4 ‘Kardashian Wedding’ Hours - 1. Stabbing self in crotch, 2. immolation, 3. marathon of “Scrubs” on Comedy Central (just kidding about that last one) [AOL TV]

‘The League’ Multipanes Are The Best - leeloo dallas multipane [UPROXX]

Top Ten Real People I’d Never Want to Be Stuck In a Cage With - Pretty sure I don’t want to be stuck in a cage with anybody. Except maybe the Smashing Pumpkins, for the jokes. [Brobible]

Anna Faris’ Husband Chris Pratt Gave Their Cat Away On Twitter - Scott Hatteberg counts as sports! I like that he’s “Anna Faris’ Husband Chris Pratt”, as if he isn’t in movies and on television shows. Yeah, The House Bunny is too big of a star for me to accept you on your own merits, Chris. [FARK]

25 Actors And Celebrities You Didn’t Know Appeared In ‘Star Trek’ - James Worthy should’ve worn his goggles over the make-up. Also, sadly I have dated enough uncool girls to know about all these people being on Star Trek. [Gamma Squad]

Frotcast 68: Real Steel, Burnsy’s Corner - Boxing robots! I can’t wait for this to be in theaters, I feel like I’ve been watching trailers and seeing commercials for it since I was born. [Film Drunk]

Aw, NBC Canceled ‘Free Agents’ :( - Just cancel everything and show “Home Improvement” re-runs. More power arf arf arf [Warming Glow]

Donate Money So Matt Will Wear Weird Underwear - I have never raised over $20,000 for any purpose in my life, including personal happiness, so if Matt Ufford wants to do it in the spirit of wearing a false mustache, so be it. It’s a good cause, and the only downside is in finding out that jeans-style boxer briefs exist. [Rapid Giving~]

What UFC Must Do To Avoid A Meltdown On FOX - 1) Give each fight a fictionalized back story, so every fight becomes interesting, 2) Pre-determine the results of the fights so the action and conclusions will be entertaining, 3) have people bounce back and keep running forward when they’re pulled into the cage by their arm. [Cage Potato]

Say Goodbye To The Belly Putter - Golf’s dumbest accessory is finally (partially) illegal. Thank Christ. Now we just need to ban tartan pants and fatness. [Devil Ball Golf]

“World’s Smallest Man.” Guess The Network - TLC is absolutely a Depression Era sideshow. Can we get this dude into an Inch High Private Eye movie, at least? [Warming Glow]

George Lucas Can’t Stop Adding Dialogue To Star Wars - There is no joke to be made here that Family Guy hasn’t made 300 times, but Lord, you’d think George Lucas could be happy with the one thing he helped make that wasn’t absolutely terrible. American Graffiti sucked, deal with it. [UPROXX]

Video: Arnold and John Milius On Conan - Probably the best commentary track ever, once you’re of a certain age and stop finding Kevin Smith funny. Arnold’s weird interest in the movie parallels my own, where I’m watching and going OH HERE COMES THE GUY WHO BUYS CONAN as if anyone listening could possibly care. [Film Drunk]

Anti-Duckface - Occasional duckface can be cute, if there is ironic context, or if the girl is hot enough. Constant duckface is a red flag for I DO NOT HAVE CONFIDENCE IN MY LOOKS and should be replaced with Not Taking Pictures. [Antiduckface]

The Ultimate Image Of Boston - A follow-up to the above link. [Kissing Suzy Kolber]

Apollo 18 Still Looks Like Paranormal Blair Witch Moon - Blair Witch is scary because I could go into the woods at night and be killed by something. Paranormal Activity is scary because someone could get me while I’m sleeping and kill me. Apollo 18 is not scary because none of us are ever going to the f**king moon to be attacked by secret monsters. [Gamma Squad]

Football Guys - In case you missed it, Jon of The Dugout fame has started doing our Deadspin feature “Football Guys” at SB Nation. Guess what it is about! [SBN]

Superbook: The Flood - An old thing I wrote for Progressive Boink about Christian anime that you should read, find funny, and e-mail somebody about so I can get out of this sports writing racket and go where the good money is, in stream of consciousness reviews of old cartoons. [Progressive Boink]

10 Actors Who Should Be More Famous - Ten pictures of that guy who played Alan M. in Josie and the Pussycats, helped kill David Gale (or something) and showed up a few times to almost nail Betty Draper on Mad Men. Ten photos. [Pajiba]
