Beyoncé's Halftime Show Featured An "Exploding" Guitar
That's something. I mean, really, Alicia Keys sings about how "this girl is on fire," but she means it figuratively. Beyoncé doesn't do anything figuratively....

Cary Williams Shoved An Official And Got Away With It
In Major League Baseball making contact with an ump will get you a suspension. The same goes for NBA players who dare touch a ref (just ask Rajon Rondo). In the NFL, though—at least in the Super Bowl—shoving a ref won't even earn you a penalty. Here's Ravens defensive back Cary Williams doing just ...

Here’s Manti Te’o Hoaxer Ronaiah Tuiasosopo Performing What He Claims Is Lennay Kekua’s Voice
When the first part of Dr. Phil's exclusive interview with Ronaiah Tuiasosopo concluded yesterday, we were left with a cliffhanger: would Ronaiah finally give in to the good Doctor's demands and perform the voice of Lennay Kekua? Today we got the answer: sort of. [Update, March 3, 2014: The video ha...

Russell Westbrook's Wardrobe Is Officially Out Of Control
Oklahoma City dispatched the Grizzlies last night, though not without a bit of intra-team turmoil. Reporters were sure to ask Thunder guard Russell Westbrook about the conflict, but we couldn't really focus on his words because of this thing he's wearing. Seriously, where does one even find such a ...

Here's A Couple Soccer Fans Pretending To Hump Each Other Behind A Live Deadline Day Report On Sky Sports News
Ahh, Deadline Day. In the U.S., trade deadlines, while occasionally exciting, invite only boring coverage of executives answering telephones. Not so in the U.K., where live reports from outside the grounds of Premiership teams invite supporters and hooligans to gather 'round for the latest transfe...

This Wayne Rooney Scarf Looks An Awful Lot Like Hitler
Manchester United increased their standing atop the Premiership ladder thanks to a 2-1 win over Southampton yesterday driven by a Wayne Rooney brace that brought fans at Old Trafford to their feet, if they weren't already upon them....

The Lakers Aren't Dead Yet, Even If Some Of Their Fans Are
The Lakers improved their record to 20-25 and avoided what would have been a soul-crushing loss when they held off a late New Orleans surge to beat the Hornets 111-106. It should never have been that close, and L.A. needed some generous officiating in the final moments to pull out the win in a game...

An ESPN Blunder Let Viewers Eavesdrop On Hannah Storm And Mark Schlereth Discussing What Sounds Like Tim Tebow's Doubtful NFL Future
It's no secret the Worldwide Leader loves all things Tebow. We didn't expect to find the Jets "quarterback" to be a topic of off-camera discussion by ESPN talent, though, as appears to be the case when a director cut from a live Colin Kaepernick media day presser to Hannah Storm and Mark Schlereth...

Hot on the heels of Jon Gruden's appearance at a WWE event in Tampa, here's famed tennis love couple Steffi Graf and Andre Agassi catching last night's Raw from Agassi's hometown of Las Vegas. Graf doesn't seem so sure about the whole enterprise, while Agassi is especially excited to catch a glimps...

NBC Really Wanted You To Know Last Night's Pro Bowl Was About "Effort"
NFL commissioner Roger Goodell made it clear the Pro Bowl wasn't long for this Earth unless selected players started showing competitive effort in the game.

Charles Barkley Randomly Showed Up On The Phoenix ABC Local News And Attempted To Do The Weather Report
This is... weird. Basketball Hall of Famer and TNT analyst Charles Barkley dropped by the 11 p.m. newscast of Phoenix ABC affiliate KNXV last night and tried his hand at meteorology. We can’t say it went well. It’s not entirely clear what Sir Charles was doing there in the first place, though he di...

Here Is An Image Of Terrell Owens And Jerome Bettis Bowling Together
Did you know Terrell Owens and Jerome Bettis own bowling teams? You probably didn't know that. We sure didn't, so when this popped up on ESPN's lazy Sunday PBA coverage it gave us a bit of a start. After all, T.O.'s last stint as a pro sports team owner didn't go so well. We're told this time aroun...

LeSean McCoy Sics Twitter Army On His "Broke, Worthless" Babymama After She Accuses Him Of Being A Deadbeat Dad
Look, we have no idea if LeSean McCoy is a deadbeat dad. The mother of his child LeSean McCoy Jr. is alleging that to be the case—and a whole lot more. Indeed, in a bizarre battle that resulted in McCoy deleting his twitter account, the babymama (known as Steph) accused McCoy of having herpes, havi...

Georgetown Beats Louisville In Game That Was 24 Seconds Longer Than Regulation And Came Down To The Final Possession
Fifth-ranked Louisville dropped its third consecutive game today to Georgetown in what was a one-possession struggle for the final six minutes of action. Those final six minutes, strangely, were actually a bit more than that; the clock inexplicably stopped at 6:07 and stayed that way for 24.37 sec...

Villanova Upsets Third-Ranked Syracuse Because Syracuse Was Stupid
A Ryan Arcidiacono three-pointer with seconds remaining in regulation forced overtime in Philadelphia, an opportunity of which the Villanova Wildcats took advantage in shocking Syracuse with a 75-71 victory....

Chelsea's Eden Hazard Kicks Ballboy, Is Sent Off From League Cup Semifinal Match
If you thought a League Two side making it to the League Cup final would be the weirdest thing to happen in the semifinals of the Capital One-sponsored English football competition, you'd be wrong. Chelsea, facing a 2-0 aggregate disadvantage on the road in Wales, later found themselves down a man...

Even Steve Donahue Can't Believe How Far The Boston College-Maryland Rivalry Has Fallen
There was a time—and it really wasn't that long ago—that a men's basketball meeting of Boston College and Maryland meant two top-ranked teams facing off in a bitter battle for ACC supremacy. My, oh, my, how things have changed. While last night's bout still earned national broadcast on ESPNU, the s...

Bradford City Beats Aston Villa, Is First Fourth-Division Team To Reach League Cup Final Since 1962
League Two side Bradford City cruised to a 3-1 win in its home match of the League Cup semifinal tie against Aston Villa two weeks ago, but most observers expected the Claret and Blue to put up, at the very least, a 2-0 win in today's Villa Park rematch to advance to the League Cup final. After al...
