Norris Cole Gave David West A Mighty Forearm Shiver To The Balls
Last night's loss to the Heat hurt for a Pacers team that hit two late shots to tie in regulation and take what looked like a winner at the charity stripe in overtime, but it was especially painful for David West—mostly because of Norris Cole's blast to the 'nads....
Kevin Durant's Tattoo Might Not Have A Misspelled Word In It After All
Yesterday, we drew your attention to what looked like a misspelled word in Kevin Durant's massive back tattoo.

Man Catches Foul Ball While Holding Baby
It might be time to move on from the dad-holding-baby highlight. Maybe not right this moment with this specific clip, but sometime soon we have to up the stakes at least. We've been getting them more and more of late and dads with babies are getting too complacent. ...
