Does Skiing Need Cheerleaders?
The 2015 World Ski Championships have had some historic firsts. The first World Champs to be held in the U.S. this century. The oldest women's winner (Tina Maze, 31, downhill).

How To Clean Up Every Mess Depicted In <i>Fifty Shades of Grey</i>

How Else Did The 49ers Screw Up Their Coaching Search?

Victor Oladipo Sings Horribly, Throws Down Tremendous Dunk
Victor Oladipo, the living and sole justification for the existence of the Orlando Magic, entered tonight's slam dunk contest in Brooklyn to a hilariously off-key rendition of the theme to "New York, New York" before throwing down what turned out to be a pretty damn good dunk in the opening round of...

At an Oplot fight card held in (we believe) Russia earlier today, a fighter went into a seizure after being knocked out with a kick to the head.
