Crazed Alabama fan fires pistol at son's head As if Jeff Foxworthy hasn't done enough to damage the reputation of Southerners, crazed Alabama fan Joseph Alan Logan recently made sure we never look at the Bible Belt the same way again.
Alan Logan, 46, apparently had too much to drink after his Crimson Tide fell to SEC rival Arkansas in double overtime (34-31) on Sept. 27 and proceeded to go ballistic. At his home in Pinson, he threw a temper tantrum that would make Eminem run for cover, tossing boxes and hurling dishes around his kitchen.
That's when Alan Logan's 20-year-old son Seth decided to ask dear old dad for a new car. Instead of a simple no or a compromise like an allowance boost, Alan Logan retrieved a nine mm pistol from his car and pressed it against his son's forehead.
According to a Jefferson County Sheriff's report, Alan Logan had his son by the collar while he remarked, "I'm going to blow your (expletive) brains out."
Fortunately, Logan's son moved his head just before pop fired the pistol, narrowly escaping certain death. Authorities, who said that Seth's ear was numb and his head ringing, revealed that Alan Logan surrendered minutes before a SWAT team (not consisting of Colin Farrell or LL Cool J) arrived to take him into custody.
After Alan Logan pulled the trigger and misfired, Seth ran to a neighbor's house and called the police. His father took Seth's 13-year-old brother outside with him to meet police.
Joseph Alan Logan has been charged with attempted murder and domestic violence.
Foxworthy, whose career has plumetted faster than those of Corey Haim and Corey Feldman combined, was unavailable for comment.
NYC legislators pass Calvin Klein bill for fans

Fashion designers like Tommy Hilfiger and Ralph Lauren enjoy the lives we all imagine. They make millions, spend most of their careers in the world's most electric cities, and are surrounded by mind-blowing beauty.
Alas, thanks to the sheer stupidity of Calvin Klein, they can no longer enjoy one of life's great pleasures: interrupting professional sports games in a drunken stupor.
On Oct. 1, New York City Council Speaker Gifford Miller (D-Manhattan) pushed through the "Calvin Klein" bill that, according to The New York Post, will "toughen fines for out-of-control or unruly behavior that spills onto playing fields of professional events."
The idea for this unprecedented piece of legislation, which passed by a landslide 42-1 vote (forme Black Panther Charles Barron said no), came from Klein's wacky attempt to verbally abuse former New York Knicks guard Latrell Spreewell at a March Game in Madison Square Garden.
Klein is fortunate he didn't meet the same fate as former Golden State Warriors head coach P.J. Carlesimo, who Spreewell infamously choked during a practice in 1999.
Sexual assault charges ravage Mepham High

If the sight of Pedro Martinez hurling senile New York Yankees bench coach Don Zimmer to the Fenway Park turf hasn't already extinguished your faith in the inherent goodness of humanity, please stop reading this brief.
A sexual assault probe is underway into criminal conduct that allegedly took place at a Pennsylvania high school football training camp in August. Both the Mepham High School (Bellmore, N.Y.) varsity and junior varsity football teams have had their season's abruptly canceled as disturbing information about activities that went on at the training camp gradually surface.
According to Long Island daily Newsday, three varsity athletes allegedly sodomized a trio of JV players at Camp Wayne for Girls in Preston Park, Pa. With a large group of players watching the debauchery, the JV players were apparently violated with objects ranging from broomsticks to pine cones and golf balls.
According to Newsday's Karla Schuster, a parent of one of the JV players had spoken with principal John Didden about one of the accused sodomizers before the week-long trip to Preston Park.
"The kid told him, you better not sleep at camp," the parent said.
While Pennsylvania state police are investigating the charges, no formal charges have been filed against the players, aged 15,16 and 17.
Wisconsin snaps OSU's 19-game win streak

Jim Tressel's Ohio State University Buckeyes have persevered through conflict for over a year. Whether it was an injury to quarterback Craig Krenzel or the suspension of star tailback Maurice Clarett, OSU played their best with their collective backs against the wall.
After narrow escapes this season against subpar teams like San Diego State (a 16-13 win) and Bowling Green (a 24-17 escape), the Buckeyes ran out of good fortune Saturday night in Madison, Wisc. when they fell 17-10.
Thanks to a stunning 79-yard touchdown pass from backup Wisconsin quarterback Matt Schabert to All-America receiver Lee Evans, Barry Alvarez's Badgers (now ranked 12th in the nation) recorded one of the biggest wins of the 2003 college football season.
Amidst a raucous Camp Randall crowd and monsoon-like rain that persisted throughout, Ohio St. never got going on offense, as the normally dependable Krenzel was erratic and lost for just the second time in 20 career starts. Wisconsin tailback Booker Stanley, subbing for the injured Anthony Davis, rushed 31 times for 125 yards.
