Sergio Llull Swishes Buzzer-Beater From The Opposite Three-Point Line
Sergio Llull was drafted by the Nuggets in 2009, but he’s stayed in Spain his entire career. Last year’s ACB Finals MVP nailed one of the longest buzzer-beaters we’ve seen all year today, giving Real Madrid the win over Valencia by a point, right after Valencia hit a kinda-sorta buzzer-beater of the...

How The Hell Did Alberto Moreno Get Away With This Tackle?

Medical Motorcycle Takes Out Professional Cyclist During Race
During today’s Kuurne-Brussels-Kuurne, Lotto-Soudal’s Stig Broeckx was drifting off to the right of the peloton, presumably to go back to his team car, when a medical motorbike tried to shoot the gap, but only ended up skidding Broeckx to the deck....

Raccoon Cheats Death At Yankees Spring Training
Raccoons are attracted to shiny objects, so it makes sense that this Tampa-area raccoon would choose to attend Yankees spring training. Maybe this is the same raccoon as the one who snuck in two years ago to watch the same team practice at the same field? Perhaps. I think, at this point, the evidenc...

Steve Kerr Burns Warriors Haters
Surely you’ve seen Steph Curry’s celestial game-winner from last night by now. It was one of the coolest sports moments of 2016, as well as a well-timed rebuttal to the newish wave of old-ass basketball players doing the “back in my day,” routine. Steve Kerr used the opportunity to lace a pretty sea...

Are You A Bay Area Pro Athlete? San Francisco Might Owe You A Parking Ticket Refund
Today, at 3:43 EST, Deadspin received one of the better tips we’ve seen in a while. Reader Zain was checking to see if the City of San Francisco owed him any money from parking tickets that he overpaid. Unfortunately for him, they did not. But fortunately for us and Tim Lincecum, Zain discovered tha...

The Saints Are Reportedly Preparing To Be The Subject Of This Season's <i>Hard Knocks</i>
Last season’s Hard Knocks brought us Vince Wilfork showin’ off that bod underneath some overalls, Brian Cushing chucking, and a solid Macho Man impression. The latest team to bring us training camp fights, barfs, and hopefully those two at the same time could be the New Orleans Saints. According to ...

According to a report from ESPNFC’s Jeff Carlisle, USMNT keeper Tim Howard is on his way back to MLS to mind the net for the Colorado Rapids, who had one of their keepers do this not two years ago.

Here's What A Motorized Doping Check Looks Like

Washington Football Team Sues Former Player For Extra Severance Pay They Accidentally Gave Him
H.B. Blades was a sixth-round pick from Pittsburgh who played four seasons for Washington as a linebacker. The team cut him in 2011, and formally paid him $40,000 in severance pay in September 2012. However, they also paid out that same sum a few months later, and they’ve been fighting in court ever...

DeMarcus Cousins And Chris Paul Are Still Going With The NBA's Most Vertically Offset Beef
Boogie Cousins and Chris Paul are probably the two most easily riled up dudes in the Pacific Division, so even though they don’t play the same position, it makes sense that they could very well find themselves beefing. They’re pretty good foils for each other, all told: both guys play with an unveil...

15-Year-Old American Chloe Kim Wins X-Games Gold With Highest Score In Superpipe History
Remember when Shaun White won an Olympic Gold and a bunch of X-Games titles before he could buy himself a beer? Well, it looks a lot like American snowboarding has found his successor; Chloe Kim, who’s 15, and has already won a bunch of halfpipe events. Two weeks ago, she won gold in the Superpipe a...

God Bless E-40, Whose New Beer Is Absolutely Horrible
Few outside the Bay Area would make the case that E-40 is the best rapper alive, but I submit to you now that he is the most rapper alive. By some quick back-of-the-envelope math, the Vallejo titan has released a million tracks in the last five years; lately, he seems to prefer multi-album sagas rel...
