Manchester City, the FA Cup winners whose third-placed finish in the Premier League secured their place in the Champions League, now travel to Vancouver to play Major League Soccer#39;s Whitecaps on Monday.

This is Liverpool#39;s first trip to Malaysia. They began their Asian tour with a 4-3 victory over China#39;s Guangdong Sunray Cave on Wednesday. Liverpool, who kicked off their Asian tour in China three days ago, made 11 changes to their line-up after the break, and it paid dividends as they gave the 80,000-strong crowd at Malaysia#39;s biggest football stadium, the Bukit Jalil National Stadium, their money#39;s worth. Star signing Charlie Adam opened his account with a goal for Liverpool as

The Boston Red Sox just made an It Gets Better video. Awesome. No really, that’s awesome. Our community and queer youth need all the support they can get. There’s even a player in this video who says he got therapy to come to terms with who he is. But he doesn’t say that he’s gay.

Charlie Harper may soon be killed off Two and a Half Men , but this is far more troubling: Charlie Sheen has officially murdered our belief in the fastball of Ricky “Wild Thing” Vaughn. The pitcher arrived on the scene in 1989’s Major League , straight out of the California penal league. He was armed with an impressive, albeit erratic, right arm. Now, though, Sheen has lifted the curtain on how he prepared for one of his most iconic roles. In an interview with Sports Illustrated , the actor says went on a steroid cycle for “six to eight weeks” and it helped. He told the magazine: “You can print this, I don’t give a f-ck. My fastball went from 79 [mph] to like 85.” The Indians did win the pennant in Vaughn’s rookie season, but he may now be more shamed than fellow baseball cheats Roger Clemens and Barry Bonds.

Before you watch Tom Hanks cling to Julia Roberts and a deplorable moped in Larry Crowne this weekend, please take a moment to remember when he clung to Sally Field and a mic stand in the 1988 riot of confusion called Punchline . It’s about standup comedy. Which is funny! When it is funny. And Punchline ? Is not that word, which is repeated repeatedly in Punchline . That’s what qualifies it as a lovably bad movie, not to mention the most appropriately titled one of all time. Because it is not funny. But it is a joke. And I doubt you’ve heard this one before.

All-time home run leader Barry Bonds and his enormous head were convicted in a Los Angeles courtroom today of obstruction of justice, as it was determined he lied to a grand jury about using steroids and human growth hormone. The former San Franciso Giants star revealed no emotion after the verdict, which followed four days of deliberation. The jury was deadlocked on a trio of other charges. The case stemmed from a testimony Bonds gave in 2003, during which he denied knowledge of ever receiving performance-enhancing drugs from a Bay Area lab and claimed he had no idea that personal trainer Greg Anderson injected him with anything illegal. Major League Baseball’s Mitchell Report, however, listed over 100 names of individuals who had failed drugs tests. Bonds was among them. Federal sentencing guidelines now recommend he serve 15 to 21 months in prison, but the disgraced slugger will likely be related to home confinement instead. [Photo: Associated Press]
Randy Quaid says it would be a “hoot” to tour with Charlie Sheen. Not sure that will ever happen, but it would indeed be a hoot, among other things. Quaid floated this screwball proposition to Canada’s Globe and Mail this week. “It’s apropos to his situation, and apropos to my situation,” he said. Whatever you say, Randy. Whatever you say. OPENING ACT? This would be the one way to make Sheen’s tour crazier . Quaid, who co-starred with Charlie in Major League II, No Man’s Land and The Wraith , wouldn’t be able to do U.S. shows, of course. Just Canada. Randy and his insane wife Evi are living in Vancouver, having sought refugee status there in 2010. This was after they went completely off the rails . Still, Randy tells E! he’d tour with Sheen in a second, and he’d open with the Johnny Cash song, “Will We Be Together Then,” followed by “Star Whackers.” On the latter, penned by Quaid, Sheen would join him on backing vocals: “That’d be great: Have Charlie come out [and sing], ‘I’m talking about Whackers!'” Unfortunately, or perhaps fortunately, there are only so many torpedoes of truth to go around. While Charlie has had special guests , his rep says: “We’re not having any opening acts. The tour is proceeding wonderfully; there are no plans to have an opening act or have Randy participating.”
