Baseball Players Get Really Deep When Their Teams Are Down 0-2<em></em>
Three of the four MLB division series have one team in an 0-2 hole. This isn’t a great spot to be in a best-of-five series, but it’s a very great spot for hearing the emptiest and most hackneyed postgame platitudes that athlete speak has to offer. Some highlights from this weekend, grouped by team s...
Tennessee's Magic Only Goes So Far
Tennessee almost followed up last week’s Hail Mary-fueled victory by overcoming a three-touchdown second-half deficit in order to defeat Texas A&M in double overtime. “Almost” is the operative word there. The Vols fell behind early and stayed that way for most of the game, hitting a low point by tra...

Shooting A Bow And Arrow Will Cost You 15 Yards
With Washington up 24-20 over the Cleveland Browns in the fourth quarter, Josh Norman intercepted Cody Kessler and proceeded to mime shooting a bow and arrow. Unsportsmanlike conduct, 15-yard penalty, wash, rinse, repeat, we’ve seen this. But the official call has a curious lack of “pretending to” o...

Today's Baseball Games Could Turn Into Postseason Chaos
It’s the last day of baseball’s regular season, and all division titles have been clinched for the better part of a week now, but the wild cards leave plenty of meaningful matchups today.
