Soccer Fan Invades Pitch, Joins Match, Scores Goal
Most pitch invaders (and Idiots On The Field in general) earn a quick bouncing by security officials, but that isn't what happened Wednesday night in Montenegro as a supporter of FK Budućnost Podgorica leapt onto the field in the final moments of his side's league-clinching match against FK Lovćen...

Lauren Tannehill Is Doing Maxim
Two weeks ago, photographer Roger Snider did a pair of shoots with Lauren Tannehill, the wife of Dolphins QB Ryan Tannehill. He doesn't say for whom, but according to LobShots, it's for Maxim.

<i>Game Of Thrones</i> Author Says Patriots Are The NFL's Lannisters
We already knew that George R. R. Martin, author of the A Song of Ice and Fire novels, is a Jets fan. (He called the Tebow trade awful, and Tebow the "worst quarterback in the National Football League.") So SI got him on the phone to talk some football....

Samantha Steele Mixes Up Her Indian-American Spelling Bee Contestants

Fan Sues Pittsburgh Penguins For Sending Him Too Many Text Messages
The Pittsburgh Penguins figure to have a pretty busy offseason. They have to shore up their defense even though they're stuck with Paul Martin's hefty contract. On July 1, they can begin to negotiate new deals with Sidney Crosby and Jordan Staal, whose current pacts expire after next season. And, li...

Last night reader Ron alerted us to a bizarre moment during last night's Yankees-Angels game when a fan behind the New York dugout flips the bird to the camera, removes his wedding ring, then flips the bird again.

The Official Bobcats Draft Lottery Party Was A Sad, Sad Time
The Bobcats opened up Time Warner Cable Arena for fans to come and watch last night's draft lottery. A lovely gesture, one much appreciated by the 40 or so people who showed up.

The New Orleans Hornets Will Pick First In The 2012 NBA Draft
The New Orleans Hornets, currently owned by the NBA and soon to be owned by Saints owner Tom Benson, will select first in the 2012 NBA Draft (most likely choosing Kentucky forward Anthony Davis).

The Unappreciated Playground Genius Of The San Antonio Spurs
Last night in San Antonio, the Oklahoma City Thunder were the sum of their parts. It was a pretty good sum, even. The Thunder were solid on the glass against the Spurs; they lit it up from three-point range; they earned plenty of points at the free-throw line. Kevin Durant, Russell Westbrook, and...

No Matter Who Wins, The NBA Draft Lottery Is Fixed
If Charlotte wins the first overall pick in tonight's draft lottery, it'll be because the association wants Michael Jordan to succeed and the Bobcats to draw in a market the NBA desperately wants to stay in.

Member Of Prestigious Golf Club Scolds Others For Pissing On The Greens, Cavorting In The Nude, Picking Up A Golf Ball With "Naked Butt Cheeks," And Much More
Piedmont Driving Club is synonymous with one word: prestige. Well, as of a few minutes ago it was, anyway. Recently, one aggrieved member wrote a letter to the club's president, John R. Holder, detailing the predominantly naked and drunken tomfoolery at a members golf tournament. You can find that l...

The Struggling Padres' Turnaround Plan? Reunite The 2006 Cardinals Rotation
The 2006 St. Louis Cardinals won the World Series despite bad starting pitching. They had Chris Carpenter and a brigade of abysmal complements: Jeff Weaver, Anthony Reyes, and Jeff Suppan. During the regular season, washed-up Mark Mulder, Sidney Ponson, and Jason Marquis also started. Yeah. It was g...

Here's The Only Way The Spurs Can Be Beat
The list of memorable halftime acts can be easily recited by any basketball fan: Quick Change, unicycle bowl lady, Frisbee Dog, and my personal favorite: Zooperstars! Last night's Western Conference Finals matchup in San Antonio appeared to feature the guy who plays outside the arena for cash as yo...

Poor Freddie Freeman Is Going Blind
Modern medicine has turned so many nagging baseball injuries into relics. There's Tommy John surgery and cortisone shots and Toradol. But the crafty sons of bitches who devise the cures baseball has come to love haven't yet found a way around blindness....

Did Barry Bonds Have A Good Time At The Giants Game Yesterday?
