The Brushback is a parody site in the vein of The Onion, but it is typically sports related. What this has to do with sports, i don't know, but it's pretty funny:

"Chevy Silverado To Tow Ayles Ice Shelf Back Into Place

TORONTO--In December of 2005, the Ayles Ice Shelf, one of six major ice shelves in Canada, broke free from the coast of Ellesmere and began drifting south in the Arctic Ocean. On April 5 of 2007, a Chevy Silverado GMT900 Heavy Duty will tow it back into place. “The Chevy Silverado is the biggest, most rugged pickup truck there is,” said Luke Copeland, director of the University of Ottawa’s Laboratory for Cryospheric Research. “You can use it to haul lumber, drive up a mountain, go four-wheeling in the mud, or tow an ice shelf the size of Manhattan. That’s why we’re going to hitch a chain to big old glacier and just drag it back about 30 miles. We’ll settle it nice and easy right back into its home. It’s that simple. Chevy 1, Global Warming 0.” After towing the ice shelf back into place, the Silverado will be driven back down to Texas where it will be used to haul illegal immigrants back to where they came from.
