Yahoo Web Series Shows Sports Stars’ High Jinks

Starting next week, the Internet giant will be running a 10-week original Web series, called Blindsided, featuring top sports talent pulling pranks on their teammates. The three- to five-minute episodes won’t include a big name host (á la Ashton Kutcher, on MTV’s Punk’d, or Betty White, who will host NBC’s upcoming prank show Off Their Rockers). But Yahoo says the show will include some of the sports world’s current stars, including Landry Fields of the Knicks and Baltimore Ravens’ Ray Rice and Bryant McKinnie.
