Steph Curry Has A Steph Curry Game
If you thought anything at all like "this Warriors-Mavericks game tonight isn't worth staying up late for," you should immediately smack yourself in the head. Hard. It has been true for at least a season now, but the point was driven home especially forcefully tonight: The Golden State Warriors are ...

BYU Signs 6'7", 410 lbs. Hulk Based On Two Year Old Pickup BBall Game
The most intriguing news out of signing day—at least for those who find tracking every tiny movement a bit weird—was that a 6'7", 410 pound manchild signed a letter of intent to play football at BYU. The problem was, nobody knew jack shit about Motekiai Langi. No grainy highlight reel, no photos of ...

Five <i>Saved By The Bell</i> Stars Recreate Their Former Roles On Fallon
Zack Morris! Kelly Kapowski! A.C. Slater! Jessie Spano! Mr. Belding! They're all here (okay, no Screech, because he's probably in jail). The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon spent eight whole minutes on a Saved By The Bell sketch featuring the original cast, almost 25 years after the NBC Saturday...

Don't Stand In The Way When Le'Bryan Nash Is Rumbling Down The Lane
Poster dunks are great, but inevitably that guy comes along and says, "we should cheer the guy that was willing to contest the dunk, not laugh at him." That guy is mostly just a smarmy highlight truther, but he does spout a kernel of truth. ...

High School Coach Misses Alley-Oop, Breaks Backboard At Pep Rally
There was a pep rally at River Ridge High School in Woodstock (Ga.), and it was certainly more exciting than any pep rally I ever attended. A boys basketball team assistant coach tried to pump the crowd up with a sweet (on an eight-foot hoop) alley-oop dunk and, well, I'll just let you watch....

Stop Trying To Convince Yourselves Seattle's Pass Call Wasn't Stupid
On Sunday, the Seattle Seahawks made a grievously bad playcall, and Malcolm Butler won the Super Bowl for the Patriots, and millions of football-watching Americans reeled in reflexive disbelief at the sheer boneheadedness on display....

Cops: Letroy Guion Had Weed And $190K In Cash In His Truck
Letroy Guion is probably out a lot of money, and a lot of pot. It started when the Green Bay Packers DT got pulled over Tuesday night for failing to maintain a single lane by the police in his hometown, Starke, Fla., better known as the home of Old Sparky, Florida's once-infamous electric chair. (...

The Denver Nuggets Are A Burning Clown Car Plunging Into A Gorge
The Denver Nuggets have lost 10 of their last 11 games; last night, they trailed the putrid 76ers by as many as 28 points before cobbling together enough dignity to make the final score look competitive. They're 19-30 at the moment, 11th in the stacked West, and 8.5 games out of the final playoff s...

Peter King Defends Hall Of Fame’s Right To Honor Alleged Serial Rapist
The NFL season is over, which means it's probably a good time for big-time NFL writers to go home and take a nap. And it seems no certified water-carrier needs a break more than SI's Peter King, who took to Twitter last night to defend the Hall of Fame candidacy of … alleged serial rapist Darren Sh...

Diana Taurasi's Russian Team Is Paying Her To Skip The WNBA Season
Since the early 2000s, many WNBA players have also played for teams overseas. The WNBA season is only four months long, so they can effectively play for two teams in one year. They do this for the obvious reason: money. Brittney Griner, who was a WNBA sensation during her rookie season, was paid jus...

Josh Gordon Officially Suspended By NFL For "At Least" A Season
It was inevitable once Adam Schefter reported that Josh Gordon had tested positive for alcohol, but today the NFL made it official: Gordon is suspended for the entirety of the 2015 football season. The Browns released a statement confirming the suspension—which is without pay and for "at least one y...

Cool 1930s Home Video Shows A Day Out At Wrigley Field
This is a pretty cool home video of a bunch of guys sitting around in fedoras and smoking cigars while watching a Cubs game at Wrigley Field, shot in either 1937 or 1938. The video belongs to the Chicago Film Archive and has been up on their website since 2012, but was only put on YouTube this wee...

Chris Pratt Photobombed Super Bowl Fans With A Sandwich Dick
Jimmy Fallon roped Chris Pratt and Chris Evans into a goofy bit where they snuck around and photobombed Super Bowl fans on some sort of red carpet. The results are actually pretty funny, but no moment was more inspired than Pratt busting out the sandwich dick. The sandwich dick always plays....
