The Lakers Had Fun With Kobe Bryant Sitting Out
The Lakers ran the NBA-best Warriors out of the Staples Center, winning 115-105 even after taking their foot off the gas in the fourth, and they did it all without Kobe Bryant. And everyone not named Kobe Bryant seemed pretty darn happy about it....
This Guy Is Overwhelmed After Receiving Present From The Seahawks
Alex explains his story at the beginning of the video, but basically he met Robert Turbin's girlfriend in Kansas City when the Seahawks were playing the Chiefs, and she asked to take a picture in his Seahawks jacket.

Your Ugly Christmas Sweater Is Stupid; Stop Wearing It Now
Take off your ugly Christmas sweater and burn it. Don't throw it in the trash, because that's not good enough. That thing needs to be rendered useless, diced into tiny pieces, incinerated. Why? Let's start with the fact that it's not a functioning piece of clothing. It's itchy, ill-fitting, and le...
Man, Did Anthony Davis Whomp The Shit Out Of The Thunder Or What
There's no one particularly SportsCenter-y highlight from Anthony Davis's 38-point, 12-rebound, three-block eruption against Oklahoma City last night. He didn't block all three shots in one leap; or tear the entire backboard off the stanchion with a dunk; or, like, spike a dead-on-arrival Kendrick ...
Kobe Needs To Have A Seat
Kobe Bryant had himself an atrocious game against the Kings yesterday, scoring 25 while missing 22 of his 30 shots and committing nine turnovers in 38 minutes of sad, clunky run. Old Man Kobe maniacally shooting his team out of games is something that's been happening a lot this year, but yesterday ...

Florida Panthers captain Willie Mitchell got tied up with Pittsburgh's Kris Letang, and inexplicably resorted to swinging Letang's own helmet at him. Willie Mitchell's a lawless man....
Viggo Mortensen Calls Cristiano Ronaldo A Pretty Boy Choke Artist
Viggo Mortensen—the NYC-born, Buenos Aires-raised Danish-American actor most famous for playing Aragorn in the Lord of the Rings movies—is a humongous fan of Argentine club San Lorenzo. His team has reached the final of the FIFA Club World Cup, where they face Real Madrid. As well as acting, Mortens...
Jeremy Lin Wishes Kobe Would Let Him Shoot A Game-Winner
On Friday, the Los Angeles Hindenburgs Lakers actually hung tight with a Kevin Durant-less Oklahoma City Thunder squad. Down 104-103 in the waning seconds, the Lakers were cued up for a Kobe Bryant game-winning shot attempt. Despite getting a solid look from the left elbow, Bryant's shot was just ...
Get Your Christmas Crap The Fuck Out Of This Bear's Face, Please
It's almost Christmas, and you're in the holiday spirit, so it's understandable that you want to go around decking the halls and whatnot. But please try to remember that bears don't care about Christmas, because bears are not vapid and materialistic creatures, so don't go putting your plush Santa in...

Darko Milicic's First Kickboxing Match Came To A Gross End
NBA bust and actual crazy person Darko Milicic is a kickboxer now, and that sentence is less weird to type out than it probably should be. He just had his first official fight, and it did not go so well....
Kevin Durant Suffers Sprained Ankle
Kevin Durant left Thursday night's matchup against the Warriors with an ankle injury, and he will not return. Durant injured his right ankle late in the second quarter, when he stepped on Mo Speights's foot as Speights slid over to take a charge. X-rays on the ankle were negative, but he was diagnos...

NBA Shit List: The Philadelphia 76ers, Who Are Capitalism's Diarrhea
Something confounding is happening in Philadelphia. The meanest, vilest, prosthetic-leg-stealingest fanbase in American sports has gone soft for its garbage basketball team, apparently because management promised them a present if they'll all just behave and eat their garbage basketball each nig...
Minor League Hockey Team Scores Three Goals In The First 36 Seconds
It was a terrible, horrible, no good, very bad night for Binghamton Senators goalie Andrew Hammond, whose Senators took on the Lehigh Valley Phantoms tonight in AHL action. ...
I Wish That Panthers-Caps Shootout Were Still Going
The shootout is dumb and bad. It is a sideshow, a skills competition, a way to decide a hockey game that bears only the slightest resemblance to hockey. It is a poor answer to a question no one was asking. And yet, every once in a while, a shootout gets so absurd, so endlessly, deliriously bananas...
