Obviously, it’s impossible to get a new autograph from a person when he or she is dead, unless you dig ‘em up and put a pen in their hand, in which case you still need a picture for the COA. So it makes sense that there is a seedy underbelly of dirtbags who are selling forged autographs from famous dead celebrities because it’s really difficult to tell if the items are the Real LeSean McCoy or not.

Last week, the fine folks at Professional Sports Authenticator revealed their Top 10 list of the year’s “Most Dangerous Autographs”, meaning that if you’re looking to pick one of these John Hancocks up, you should probably double or triple check the authenticity. Especially if you’re buying them from a guy behind the Food Lion.

Obligatory With Leather women's volleyball image.

What started as a simple case of a pervert trying to get his freak on has turned into a life-ruining experience for one Seattle husband. Steven Meeks is facing one count of voyeurism after a girl on a high school volleyball team discovered a camera in the bathroom that her and her teammates were using during the night of a slumber party last November.

Even worse for Meeks is that his wife is the volleyball team’s coach, so I imagine she will be hiring a lawyer to bump, set and spike half of his assets in the near future. That is, unless she falls for his incredibly solid excuse.

Meeks told police that he placed the camera in the bathroom for his sexual gratification, according to probable cause documents. He said that his intentions were to spy on a female co-worker who he knew would be using the restroom on Monday, but he said he was aware of the slumber party and that the girls would be using the bathrooms.

Man, this dude has got to be the biggest dipsh*t in the history of perverts. I can just picture the interrogation now:

Cop: “Let me get this straight, you scumbag – you not only set up the camera to spy on a female co-worker…”
Meeks: “Oh yeah.”
Cop: “But you also knew that a high school volleyball team would be using this bathroom, too?”
Meeks: “Oh, definitely. No doubt. So what now, do we high five?”

The bizarre story of Isiah Thomas’ apparent overdose was finally made a bit more clear yesterday with the help of Newsday scribe Anthony Rieber, who got a detailed account of the Thomas incident from Harrison, NY police chief David Hall. Thomas was allegedly rushed to a White Plains hospital after an apparent accidental overdose on sleeping pills. He then told a NY Post reporter that it was his daughter that had been involved in the occurrence, and not him. But as Police Chief Hall tells Rieber:

”The only thing I can say is maybe he has some stipulation in his contract… if he takes drugs or whatever they may not owe him the $18 million (left on his contract). I have no idea…

So Isiah Thomas, already many times a millionaire, told police his daughter had suffered an accidental overdose. All potentially so he could continue collecting millions of dollars from the team he helped turn into a smoldering tire fire that can be seen from well outside of Earth’s orbit.

Such a charming fellow. Police ruled Thomas’ overdose to be accidental. And, in the wake of this story and Terrell Owens’ accidental OD from two years ago, I have to ask: Do any of these assholes know how to read the instructions on a CVS printout? Jesus. Those aren’t Skittles you’re eating, morons.
