Baseball season never ends for the New York Post. Derek Jeter's in the news today because he's reportedly back in the game with a vengeance.

Artem Anisimov Breaks Out The Boomstick, Righteously Pisses Off The Lightning
After scoring his fifth goal of the season, a shorthanded tally in a tie game, Rangers center Artem Anisimov lowered the sights, pumped his stick, and let fly with one of the more demonstrative celebrations of the year.

That Craigslist Ad Offering People $75 To Attend The Big Ten Championship Game Was A Hoax
Spencer Hall, who had gotten hold of a response from the hoaxster and initially thought it could be legit, ended up getting to the bottom of it: "The funniest thing was all the damn Spartan and Badger fans who crawled out of the woodwork.

In proper form, it owns the room, as if a vice squeezing your attention tight and showing it who's boss....

Inigo Martinez, a defender for Real Sociedad, broke open a 2-2 tie against Real Betis yesterday with a goal from about 60 yards out.

Tyler Palko Is Not The Next Kurt Warner
During Monday Night Football last week, Ron Jaworski briefly speculated that Tyler Palko was following the Kurt Warner archetype, of a guy who bumbles around for a while before finally getting his shot in the NFL. As Jaws pointed out, Kurt Warner didn't get his first NFL start until he was 28 year...

The Taiwanese Animation For The Penn State Scandal Is Batshit Insane, Even By Taiwanese Animation Standards
Did you know these videos aren't even aimed at Taiwanese people? Next Media Animation knows their twisted takes on Western news play well in America. It's been a while since we ran one of them, because by pumping them out almost daily they've watered down what was once a special treat. But their v...
