This happened more than a week ago, but it slipped our attention, because hurling. That's right: hurling. It's an ancient Gaelic game that isn't quite lacrosse, isn't quite soccer, and isn't quite baseball. I'm not going to pretend I understand the rules, but I can tell you the video above is from...

Before interviewing Danica Patrick yesterday, SBNation's Amy K. Nelson asked her Facebook fans to help her come up with questions for the famous driver.

By Adding Tulane And East Carolina, The Big East's Takeover Of Conference USA Is Almost Complete

JaVale McGee Converts An Alley-Oop While Getting Fouled And Never Actually Touching The Rim

What, you think JaVale McGee is going to just throw down a normal, ho-hum alley-oop? Don't be silly.

Texas A&M Finally Lets Johnny Football Talk

Johnny Manziel—though he has a really cool nickname, and though he led his team to an upset of top-ranked Alabama, and though he is putting together one of the all-time great individual seasons—remains something of a mystery to college football fans.

Jason Babin May Have Lost His Mind

Tonight's game between the Panthers and Eagles looked really good when the schedules first came out, but in reality, it will be a hot mess between two underachieving teams with no current playoff hopes led by coaches trying to save their jobs.

The Cougars beat the visiting Washington Huskies by a field goal in overtime in front of 30,000 fans Friday night. As you can see at around the :13 mark on the 45 yard line in the video above, the overtime win was apparently not enough for one fan who was out for blood....

It's Official: Somehow Florida, Of All Damn Teams, Was Thoroughly Underrated This Year
