This dude, far as we know, has no real back story to him yet; he is just some dude who chose to climb out of his car sunroof on a country road and surf on the windshield in his surfer shorts while his fellow dude filmed from below. He is known on The Internet so far as "Crazy Dude," and that seems accurate enough. We're not sure what inspired the windshield surf, but we'll assume that it's some special natural bro-dude high that we're not even aware of, as we are not natural bro-dudes. Hopefully, the natural bro-dude high also creates some kind of protective bubble around said bro-dude for when, like, a deer comes out of the prairie grass on the right and the surfing ends, suddenly and ungracefully.

Chargers DT Antonio Garay was just fined $15,000 by the NFL for a hit below the knee on Tom Brady in Week 2, but he will be laughing all the way to the bank, because he drives a tiny car with a Hello Kitty on it and tweets pictures of it all the time. So, ha! More »

If this is really Pryor's car—and it sure as hell looks that way—we have ourselves a new nadir of the Buckeye scandal. That it happened at Buckeye Donuts makes it all the more Jamarcus Russell-y. At least Russell had first-round money. More »

"It's like anything else," Matthew "Moodini" Mooney said after the half-second he allotted himself to escape from being chained to a race car before it accelerated proved not to be enough. In a broad sense, I suppose. It was only his third time attempting the trick (he was 2 for 2 before), and hopefully the last. (H/T cyrus_the_virus) [CNN] More »

The bikers meander through streets and sometimes block traffic, which can tick off drivers. In Puerto Alegre, Brazil on Friday night, motorist Richard Neis got way more than ticked off. Neis tailed the Critical Mass bikers for some distance in his black VW Golf before gunning the engine and plowing into them. More »

Allow us to be the next in the long line of people lamenting the sorry state of the Indianapolis 500.
