The Onion's sports articles are always fantastic and usually incredibly accurate in the details. I got the Ecstasy of Defeat for Christmas and haven't stopped laughing. Some of my favorites: Bill Belichick's Tears Eat Through Podium That contains my favorite line in Onion history: quote:As Belichick sloughed grotesquely into a liquid heap, he was reportedly heard to ask if this is what love is. NASCAR Cancels Remainder of Season Following David Foster Wallace's Death CC Sabathia, Prince Fielder Keep Imagining Each Other as Giant Talking Hot Dog, Hamburger NFL Meteorologists Warn Steaming Black-Guy Heads Occurring Later Every Year Someone earlier mentioned their constant portrayal of Tim Duncan as the world's most boring player. This is the best one: Tim Duncan Releases Decade Worth of Pent-Up Emotion After Spurs Preseason Loss

Definitely this one: Violence Against Women Linked To Burned Pot Roasts http://www.theonion.com/articles/violence-against-women-linked-to-burned-pot-roasts,840/ This is one of the first Onion articles I ever read, and vividly recall laughing loudly enough at work to raise a few eyebrows. Whenever I'm telling someone about The Onion and what it's about, this article sums up their satirical style perfectly. Like the stoning one, it's pretty so be warned.

I like a lot of their single headline and picture with no story entries. A lot of the times the headline itself is funny enough like Papal Infallibility Invoked To Allow Scrabble Word but this one here is all in the picture: This poo poo Again. Short and sweet. Perfect.
