We welcome Elin Nordegren Woods to this world of WAG greatness.

Sports wives and girlfriends, otherwise known as WAGs to those in the know, continue to make names for themselves away from the sporting world by keeping their men in line.

Some do it the traditional way (Amalia Tabata Pereira wife of MLBer) by lying to the man in their life.

Others aren’t so quiet. See Elin Nordegren. Golf clubs. Possible cheating scandal.

The results? A nice mix of new and old, “The 14 Craziest/Angriest WAGs In The World Of Sports!”

It’s understandable that the last thing you want to see on a sports blog is a wedding cake.

But you have to see the craziest sports-related wedding cake any human has ever created – that Angry T is aware of. It’s the Gator Cake, a piece of art from Elizabeth Forkey the owner of EB Cakes in Toccoa, Georgia.

Everything you see in that picture is edible. The gator, its scales, the eyeballs. All of it.

Photos after the jump.

The Detroit Lions are officially terrible.

A winless season didn’t make it official. #1 draft picks flaming out didn’t make it official. Hiring Matt Millen didn’t make it official.

But fans selling a towel proclaiming “We Are Terrible” as a play on words from the Pittsburgh Steelers Terrible Towel makes it very official. And at $10 you’ll get years of good out of your towel cleaning up the vomit when Matthew Stafford throws another pick. Or the defense giving up another 200-yard rushing effort.

Of course the local Detroit media jumped all over this story.

Birmingham residents Gordon Miller and John Crick are selling white towels (naturally), with “The Official We ARE Terrible Towel: A Detroit Original Since 1957″ emblazoned in Honolulu blue. They’re $10 each — or less for bigger orders — and can be purchased online at weareterribletowel.com or by calling 877-442-7935.

“It’s hard to eat a hot dog or drink a soda with a bag over your head,” Miller said in a news release. “With the official We ARE Terrible Towel, you can eat, drink, boo and still wave your towel.”

And in a nice touch from the entreprenuers, they are offering a Cleveland Browns version too. No, Brady Quinn’s head isn’t emblazoned on it.

It’s never too early to start talking Pittsburgh / WVU’s annual Backyard Brawl.  It’s also never too early to talk about Noel Devine and all his children. Of course, the best way to talk about said children is in shirt form.  Show your support for the man with the strongest seed in the Big East.  He could fart on a girl and nine months later be the proud father of a set of triplets.

So grab your Pitt gear while they steamroll Cincy and WVU on their way to a Big East Championship for the Stache’.

Buy it here. Or here. And ladies, you can buy it here.

Nothing like good old fashioned pre-martital baby making to get a rivalry going.

For those of you who have to suffer through mediocre Big Ten Network games there is usually one respite from the boorish play from bland offenses and average defenses.

Charissa Thompson sideline reports.

But those bright moments during a Saturday afternoon have been missing for several weeks after Thompson suffered a broken foot and ankle in a freak step-aerobics accident.

The sideline princess returned to work yesterday’s Michigan-Purdue game but had a special set-up – a plastic chair behind the UM bench, according to MGoBlue.com.

Thompson had surgery five weeks ago and is on doctor’s orders to wear a protective boot, but she left it in the hotel for the game. With only three games left in the season she’s toughing it out.

“I’m sticking to yoga and the treadmill from now on. I’m stepping down from step. Get it?”

And Thompson is tweeting about how excited she was to be in the Motor City/Ann Arbor area for her return.

just landed in lovely Detroit .. I’ve never been so happy to fly;)

There is much discussion this morning over the Comcast broadcast of the Villanova vs. Richmond game that took place yesterday.

And the commotion surrounds what came across the television sets of about 1,200 people that happened to be watching the game live.

“C,mon, end this f@cking game, already,” was uttered and now a nation of white men who care about such things are going nuts trying to figure out if it was a broadcaster or an open mike that suddenly went live.

Even newspapers are joining in the fray over the F-bomb:

As play-by-play man Bob Picozzi described the final seconds while an unknown person is overheard saying, “What a bum. Come on, end this (bleeping) game.”

The first part was a reference to the 35-yard field goal Richmond’s Andrew Howard missed with five seconds to play in the game that would have given the Spiders the lead.

After a roughly 10-second pause, the same unknown person is heard saying, “Go home, already.”

Listen, it’s not the Berman Tapes for Christ’s sake.

Like the guy wanted to be in Richmond, Virginia on a Saturday night.

…and the ladies go crazy as the four-fingered Alabama fan gets to show off between the 3rd and 4th quarters.

Um, does this go down as one of the year’s greatest college football screen caps.

Of course it does. Right behind the Oklahoma band chick shedding tears as Florida was whipping the Sooners WAY back in January.

Now we just have to figure out who four-fingered Alabama fan is.
