Has Any Player Been Screwed On Deadline Day As Badly As Danny Granger?
When Danny Granger woke up yesterday, he played for the Pacers (41-13), one of the best teams in the NBA. By the end of the day, he played for the 76ers (15-40), one of the worst.

Yu Darvish Jokes That Masahiro Tanaka Is Overpaid, Everyone Freaks Out
Rangers pitcher Yu Darvish was asked about the newest Japanese import, and more specifically, the seven year, $155-million contract with the Yankees that blew Darvish's deal (under the old posting system) out of the water. Darvish made the mistake of being sarcastic. It didn't translate....

Martin Brodeur Blames The Ice For His Being Old And Bad
Martin Brodeur called the makeshift rink at Yankee Stadium "the worst ice I ever played hockey on," and given a 21-year career, that's saying something. No other player on either team had such harsh words for the ice, but, then, no other player got yanked after giving up six goals in two periods....
Young Hockey Fan Gives Zero Fucks
Kid! There's some hockey going on right over there. Look at the hockey. Just turn your head a bit and...no? OK. The Metropolitan kind of sucks, I agree. And if I had a Brad Richards jersey, I'd be mad too. But seriously, those seats cost a ton of cash, you ingrate....
Kenny Rogers, The Gambler Who Embodied Suffering And Abject Failure
Having purchased a Hall of Fame ballot, which we'll be filling out in accordance with the wishes of our readers, we're examining the merits—and relative lack of merits—of all 36 players on this year's ballot for the purposes of better informing the electorate, i.e., you. All entries in the series ca...
Texas Rangers Draft Russell Wilson (Yes, That One)
In today's Rule 5 draft, which allows teams to snatch up other teams' minor leaguers not on a 40-man roster but with a certain amount of service time, the Rangers took Russell Wilson, second baseman. He's probably not going to make much of an impact for Texas: he's got a pretty good football career ...
Zdeno Chara Fights Brian Boyle, Earns Gordie Howe Hat Trick
Zdeno Chara is listed at six-foot-nine. Brian Boyle is listed at six-foot-seven. It was still a rather one-sided fight involving two of the tallest players in the NHL, though....
MLB.com Reader Predicted Prince Fielder-Ian Kinsler Trade Last Week

If You Insult Al Trautwig On Twitter, He'll Call Your Mom
"Another new tv career is born. Spelled boron." With one hilarious-sounding typo of "Biron," as in the recently-retired Marty Biron, MSG host Al Trautwig welcomed a new analyst to the cable channel's Rangers broadcast. He also welcomed the Twitter trolls....
Corey Perry Knocked Into Rangers Bench Twice In One Shift
Ryan McDonagh flipped Corey Perry into the Rangers' bench twice in the span of 12 seconds during Monday night's Ducks-Rangers game. What's the saying? Flip me once, shame on you. Flip me twice, my teammates come over to help....

Jonathan Quick Scored A Power Play Goal On Himself
The last time we checked in on Jonathan Quick in these parts, he was saying "fuck" repeatedly. He probably did that again tonight, after a blunder handed the Rangers a third-period shorthanded goal that actually required zero hands....
The Fatally Flawed Rangers Went Out With A Bunt And A Whimper
On August 31, the Rangers were sitting pretty. First in the division, a hefty wild card lead if it came to that, Texas had a 98.12 percent chance of making the playoffs. September was unkind—even with a seven-game winning streak that earned them a one-game playoff, they went 12-16 over the month, ge...
The Rangers Win, And We're Getting Game 163
