LeBron James Has Committed Two Fouls In His Last 299 Minutes Of Court Time
If you've played even rec-league basketbal, you know that desperate, flailing fouls are often the last resort of an overmatched defender. Despite an arsenal of chase-down blocks and consistent efforts to lock up the other team's best player, LeBron James essentially never finds himself in that posit...

Atlanta 31, Detroit 18: The above moment of celebratory uncertainty came before Calvin Johnson broke Jerry Rice's single-season receiving yards record—it came during a Falcons timeout while the Lions were down, in fact, which meant the confusion was sort of understandable—but it's appropriate consi...

Kansas State Guard Angel Rodriguez's "Puerto Rican Temper" To Blame For His Third Foul, According To ESPN Announcer
The last time we wrote about Kansas State guard Angel Rodriguez, he was facing chants of "Where's Your Green Card" from a brain-dead Southern Miss band.

Saturday Night Football Open Thread: Drunk Off Eggnog Edition
There's football tonight! No, no—not Tivo'd Las Vegas Bowl, though that was a good game—NFL football, where they wear pads and get paid. Watch it with us, talk trash about the family members you see once every year on Christmas (*cough*), count the many times Jon Gruden refers to Matt Ryan as "this ...
Boise State Horseface Is Somehow Scarier Than Other Horsefaces
Remember shirtless horse-man? He was somewhat of an amusing interlude, taking our mind away from a storm's impending devastation if only for a few moments.

Stop Concern-Trolling About Johnny Manziel's Basketball Tickets

Doug Collins Bought 18,000 Big Macs Last Night
Every time the 76ers score over 100 points or more, each fan in attendance at the Wells Fargo center gets a free Big Mac.

Dale Murphy Is Into LCD Soundsystem And Has No Idea How He Ended Up On The Rockies
Dale Murphy dropped by reddit yesterday to answer a few fan questions (perhaps as a way of rallying support before the December 31 Hall of Fame ballot, the last on which his name will appear, perhaps because he felt like it). Convivial and honest as usual, Murphy gave some great answers, including p...

It was so brief, we weren't sure we had seen it correctly, but reader Todd sent in the video: UCF's dance team seems to be organized around, if not led by, an extremely tall, enthusiastic and graceful male dance teamer. We like his style. We like his passion. We like his pom-poms, and the fact tha...

You Can Search YouTube For LITERALLY ANYTHING + "Rap" And Get Instant Sad
So maybe this is obvious, but people like to rap on YouTube. And then they leave the videos up, forever. On one hand, this is a curious anthropological development for humanity. On the other hand, it means there's a rap video for virtually any noun, verb, or other descriptor in English....
Meet Godfrey Chitalu, The Zambian Lionel Messi
Barça's Lionel Messi scored a lot of goals this year. 86 of them, apparently.* That's a record for a soccer player. Or is it? Zambia's Godfrey Chitalu—whose heyday as a player came in the late 1960s and 70s, before he began coaching in the 80s—may have scored 116 goals in 1972. On this week's excerp...
