Eagles Unsure How Riley Cooper Got Black History Month On Team Calendar [Update]
Riley Cooper, you might remember, did this. It was a whole big thing, and not even that long ago!

The Loopy <i>Project A</i> Is Jackie Chan At His Most Violently Ridiculous
There's a moment in the 1983 Jackie Chan movie Project A where he's dangling from a clock tower's minute hand, clinging for dear life as people watch him from stories below.

LeBron's Going To Opt Out, But Don't Panic
Cleveland.com has an interesting look at the details of LeBron James's contract with the Cavaliers, and why it's a certainty that James is going to decline his player option this summer, and again the summer after that. It's flexibility, sure, but it's also tens of millions of dollars....

Only Kevin Durant Can Make Dropping 40 Look This Easy
Before we get to the highlights of the hyper-efficient 19-shot, 40-point eruption Kevin Durant put on the Nuggets last night in Denver, let's make a deal.
