Sports: Couture Crushes Toney, Clarett Comes Back, OchoCinco Finds Love & More!
Football is finally here, officially. Football rules the nation when it comes to sports entertainment. So with football getting underway soon (and it sure will take over just about every topic known to man) I figure this may be one of our last weeks to still have a chance to talk other sports, rather than all football.

Sports Wrap: Tiger’s Costly Divorce, the Return of the NFL & More!
If this isn’t your first time reading the “Red Zone” then you know that after each weekly column I normally hit you with a quick look at different topics rather than give you a long spill on just one topic. I call this the two-minute drive. Well, this week we’re going no huddle right from the start. It’s Operation Elway time. See more...

Sports: The Return of Favre, Carmelo “Lebrons” the Nuggets & More!
With an announcement forthcoming, Mr. Wrangler himself Brett Farve looks to be returning to play his 20th season in the NFL. I must say that I am completely and honestly not surprised, who is? If you thought for one minute that the last time you would see Farve on a football field would be throwing an interception to lose the NFC championship you were horribly mistaken. See more...

Sports: Football’s Back, Shaq Goes Green, Revis Holds Out & More!
Football is here! That’s right I said football has returned. From the NFL to high school football, no matter what level you like it’s back. With the flip of the coin this past Sunday night at the Dallas Cowboy-Cincinnati Bengals game the NFL officially reconvened. Not to mention come September 2 college football gets going as well.

Sports: T.O.‘s Back, Farve “Retires”, Yankees Dominate Trades & More!
The Oil Spill, that’s what I’m calling it this first week's column (the oil's “refined” of course). The reason? Like BP I can’t cap this week’s lists of topics to bring to you. They are spewing from all angles!! Here is a look into the week that was sports. From T.O. to Mayweather to Farve's, um retirement, I've covered it all. See more...

Game 7 NBA Finals Preview, In Which I Mostly Talk S**t About Kobe

Game 7 NBA Finals Preview, In Which I Mostly Talk S**t About Kobe
As a born and raised Bostonian currently living in L.A. I'm finding my thoughts continually turning to tonight's Game 7 matchup between my beloved Celtics and the Lakers. So instead of forcing you to read me make Celtics references throughout the day (Jeezy was bricking punchlines like Ray Allen bricked 3s in Game 4), I thought I'd try to get it all out in one post.

Who Dat! From Manning to Kim Kardashian, Wrapping Up Super Bowl XLIV

Who Dat! From Manning to Kim Kardashian, Wrapping Up Super Bowl XLIV
Last night, as I predicted, a city visited by tragedy was given reason to flood the streets in celebration when their beloved New Orleans Saints took out the Indianapolis Colts, 31-17, one of those scored that doesn't give an accurate reflection of how close the game was. While Super Bowl XLIV fell just shy of going down as one of the all-time great games (it was a Manning interception away from the first Super Bowl overtime win), it did feature more twists and turns than Kanye's career. Here's a final look back at the night that was...

Ballin! RefinedHype’s Super Bowl Preview

Ballin! RefinedHype’s Super Bowl Preview
Forget the 4th of July, American Idol or Costco, nothing unites America like a Super Bowl. This Sunday an estimated 93 million people will watch the big game, but very few of them will have any real knowledge of what's unfolding before them. So before you spend Sunday stuffing yourself full of pigskin and pork rinds, I thought I'd take a moment to review two crucial questions: Who should you root for, and who's going to win? See more...

Mark McGwire’s Real Steroid Confession

Mark McGwire’s Real Steroid Confession
January's a notoriously slow month for new music and Mark McGwire's recent, so-called confession to Bob Costas during an MLB Network interview was such a blatant attempt at hyping his Hall of Fame candidacy that I couldn't help but give it some much needed Refining. So, before we all get completely sick of talking about Big Mac's pill poppin escapades, let's reveal the true story once and for all. See more...
