New Footage Shows The Based God's Curse On Kevin Durant Is Real
I don't know what kind of hidden frequencies or imperceptible light waves this Vine can pick up on, but we now have the best evidence yet for why Kevin "The Servant" Durant's shot wasn't hitting like it usually does last night....
Joyce Carol Oates Rages Against Death Of The First Amendment
Most people think that the case of Donald Sterling poses no free speech or First Amendment issues. Their argument is that Sterling has every right to order his mistresses not to be seen with black people and to privately talk about Los Angeles Clippers players as if they were livestock, and that the...

18 Things <em>Rolling Stone</em> Couldn't Fit Into Its Bill Simmons Profile
I went to a Clippers game with Bill Simmons, heard him explain why other players don't like Blake Griffin, and joined him in making fun of a pre-shitstorm Donald Sterling, who sat, inert, across the court from us. ("Maybe it's like a Weekend at Bernie's kind of thing.") I ate sushi with Bill in L.A....
Gregg Popovich Is Not Enjoying This Dallas Comeback
The Mavs have tied the game at 77-77 late in the fourth quarter thanks to turnovers like this from Pop's Spurs. He's not a happy camper....
Kyle Korver Shows Off His In-The-Building Range
Kyle Korver draws all net from about 30 feet out and he's not even curling off a screen or walking into the shot; he's completely flat-footed. ...
Cool Charts: Where The NBA's Best Scorers Are Getting Their Shots
Last Friday on Grantland, Kirk Goldsberry released a great series of charts breaking down the top NBA scorers and shooters from various spots on the floor. The graphics—interactives, thanks to Bostonography's Andy Woodruff—are revealing as always, especially Dirk Nowitzki's:...

NASCAR Fan Shaves American Flag Into Chest Hair
This guy was in Richmond last night, which apparently played host to not only the Ambrose-Mears fight, but the Civil War of shirts. Let's just all disregard the potentially racist/treasonous idiot in the Confederate flag shirt and feast our eyes upon the patriotic idiot with the hirsute Old Glory. C...
Mavs Beat Spurs On Vince Carter's Three-Point Buzzer-Beater
The Mavericks beat the Spurs 109-108 on a Vince Carter three-pointer at the buzzer. Down 108-106, Carter got the ball off the inbounds with 1.7 seconds left, pump-faked Manu Ginobili into the stratosphere, and drained a three from the corner as time expired. The play was reviewed and upheld, and th...
Blues Fan Has Facepalm For The Ages After Toews Goal
A hearty thank you to reader Justin for pointing this out because it is wonderful. Look at this man who probably smacked himself in the face with such force that his whole section heard the thwack! Go ahead and expand this one to get the full experience, but don't stop there. There's a lot more goin...
Jonathan Toews's Overtime Winner Was As Close As It Gets
There's not much space at all between Ryan Miller's skate and the post, but Jonathan Toews used all of it on his backhand winner in overtime against the Blues. Toews gave the Blackhawks a 3-2 overtime win in Game 5 after he found himself at center ice all alone with the puck thanks to a Duncan Keith...
Seriously, What The Hell Is Going On With The Pacers?
Things have been bad for the Pacers for about two months, during which the team took on the surly, listless post-holiday air of an unhappy family too long indoors. But even when they were playing their worst, it was hard to imagine this. Down 2-1 series to the eighth-seeded Hawks, the Pacers are in ...
Dodger Stadium Idiot Climbs Over Outfield Fence, Evades Security
Two fans ran out onto the field at Dodger Stadium tonight midway through the ninth inning, and it appears one of them escaped security by climbing back over the outfield fence. We doubt he got away for long, though....
Jeff Teague Hits One-Footed, Contested Three To Beat The Shot Clock
Even Jeff Teague doesn't know how he sank a running three-pointer with Luis Scola in his face as the shot clock expired. He can only do his best Jordan shrug. Teague will take it though, along with a Game 3 win for the Hawks over Indiana....
Oscar Robertson Is Right About Carmelo And The Knicks
Oscar Robertson, who is the highest order of NBA great and disagreeable sumbitch, went on SiriusXM NBA radio today and said that Carmelo Anthony should definitely leave the Knicks. There are a number of reasons why Melo should or should not leave New York, but Oscar actually hit a big one square in ...
Holy Shit, The Marlins And Braves Cannot Stop Striking Each Other Out
Remember last night, when the Atlanta Braves and Miami Marlins combined to strike out 28 times, a thing that had never before occurred in the modern era? Well, those crazy free-swingers went and did the exact same thing today, and they didn't even need a full nine innings to do it this time. ...
Jose Fernandez And Alex Wood Strike Out Everyone
Last night, the Marlins and Braves teamed up to do something that has never been done in the modern era: they combined to strike out 28 times in a nine inning game while failing to draw a single walk. After checking the math real quick, I believe that is an assload of strikeouts....
Umpires Use Replay To Check Count, Get It Wrong Anyway
