Cycling Guy Calls Out Other Cycling Guy For Getting Pushed Up A Climb By His Teammates
Cycling is just about wrapping up its preseason; the peloton is scattered across the Middle East, Southern Europe, and anywhere else with vaguely hospitable weather. The Vuelta a Andalucia Ruta Ciclista Del Sol has both too many names for one race, and also a decent crop of riders. Teejay Van Garder...
Jung-ho Kang Has A Tattoo Of Himself On His Leg
Jung-ho Kang’s first season with the Pittsburgh Pirates was cut short last September when Chris Coghlan ruthlessly slid into Kang’s leg, breaking it and tearing his MCL.

The Warriors Were No Match For Damian Lillard
Damian Lillard and the Portland Trailblazers put a royal whooping on the Golden State Warriors last night up in Portland. Yes, the Warriors were uncharacteristically sloppy and bad. Sure, they fumbled away 13 turnovers in the third quarter alone, the most in any quarter in any game since 2008. Their...

Thomas Müller Scored Himself A Clean Little Half-Bicycle Kick Goal
Thomas Müller has, apparently, been reading the pamphlets and watching the tapes. The move in 2016, it seems, is knocking the ball down to yourself and spinning about while scoring. Christine Sinclair did it. Dele Alli did it. And it wasn’t as pretty as the Canadian or the Englishman, but Thomas Mül...
Records: Trainer That Sued Peyton Manning May Have Reported Him For Academic Fraud In 1994
The biggest sports story since the Super Bowl has been the renewed focus on allegations that Peyton Manning sexually assaulted trainer Jamie Naughright in 1996 while at the University of Tennessee.

Hot Damn, Check Out This Christine Sinclair Golazo
Canada and Costa Rica are playing each other in Olympic Qualifiers right now, and Christine Sinclair put Canada up 2-0 with this beauty. This ain’t quite Christen Press’s once-in-a-lifetime first touch, but it’s awful damn good. Poor Costa Rica just keeps getting golazo’d on....
How Tennessee’s Head Trainer Took Control Of The Allegations Against Peyton Manning
After Jamie Naughright said she was sexually harassed by Peyton Manning, the first person she called at the University of Tennessee was head trainer Mike Rollo. The lifetime Volunteer immediately set out to “fix it.” According to Naughright, no one did more than Rollo to sculpt the long-prevailing n...
Deadpool Is A Superhero Who Refuses To Act Like One
The two biggest movie releases of Summer 2016 are both going to be overwrought action movies cut with brief interludes of Men Breathing Heavily Through Their Noses With Emotion, and they are both going to pull in a small nation’s GDP worth of box office receipts. Take your pick: Batman v. Superman: ...
Mookie Betts Drove A Golf Cart Right Into A Lake
Red Sox center fielder Mookie Betts is an adept baseball man, as well as an extremely skilled bowler. What he’s not good at is driving a golf cart, apparently. He and Travis Shaw went golfing this afternoon, and they got a bit more amphibious than they wanted to....

Cricket Guy Somersaults In Mid-Air To Make Beautiful Catch
Corey Anderson is a bowler for New Zealand’s cricket team, and also apparently a future stunt double for action movies. This is like when pitchers catch line drives hit right back at them, only with an order of magnitude more swagger. I have to agree with our lovely-accented commentator here: that w...
DeMarcus Cousins Has The Quote Of All-Star Weekend
DeMarcus Cousins has an ugly game. He’s a pouting tornado of elbows and snarls, who tramples over opponents instead of going over or around them. He looks so mad on the court, so the second-time all-star is no doubt enjoying his time up in Toronto away from the Sacramento Kings Circus....
The Only Constant In The EPL Title Race Is Chaos
The Premier League season is a brutally long slog through 38 games from August to May, where teams must balance ambitions on as many as four fronts, while managing health and keeping everyone happy. It’s about not breaking down as much as it is about throttling every opponent. So it’s easy to lose t...
Ankles Aren't Supposed To Bend This Way
Atletico Madrid’s feisty winger Yannick Carrasco left his team’s game at Getafe with this twisted ankle. After falling to the floor in pain, Carrasco tried to get helped to the tunnel, but he was eventually carried off the pitch....
Here, Watch Steph Curry, Michelle Obama, And Ayesha Curry Do A Dubsmash Rendition Of "Barbara Ann"
When the Warriors went to the White House last week, there were some good Obama burns, a passable Steph Curry impression, and three very famous people covering the most annoying Beach Boys song as a trio of demon chipmunks....
