Boston, Newtown, Challenger: How To Talk To Kids About Awful Things
I was in fourth grade at Myrtle Schumann Elementary School in Orono, Minn., when the Challenger exploded. I didn't see the shuttle explode live on TV. We were in our class doing our usual lessons as word of the disaster spread. I remember a little kid named Jason broke the news to me personally....
Chris Duhon Vs. Rec Leaguer: An Indicted Art Mogul's $50K Bad Beat
I've never been invited to one of those high-end poker games hosted by Helly Nahmad's pals, but I do know he's a gambling man.

"WE FUCKING SUCK SO FAR": A Sorority Girl Lashes Out At Her Sisters
I always like to picture sororities as places where college girls stage elaborately decorated mixers and then spend the rest of the week gouging out each other's eyes. And thankfully, the remarkable email you're about to read proves all of my theories correct. From reader Erik: "This is from the U...

Brittney Griner Outs Herself As Already Out

Minor Leaguer Reportedly Tried To Climb Into Stands To Fight Fan
Details are still scarce and even a bit contradictory, but according to reports, fans in Toledo angered one or more Indianapolis Indians players last night by throwing things at them, and that at one point former major leaguer Félix Pié attempted to climb over a railing to go after people before bei...
Pat Summerall: The Last Of The Hard Voices
At my gym the other day, half of the television screens were showing an episode of Dr. Phil. You don't need me to tell you that Dr. Phil sucks, so I grabbed a magazine and went about the business of not looking at his big stupid head. But then I saw Pat Summerall in the studio with him and suddenly ...
Let's Gawk At Roger Goodell's Under-Construction Summer Home

Pirates Fan With Giant Novelty Glove Catches Foul Ball
They say you are supposed to stop bringing your glove to the park when you're an adult, but they never say anything about not bringing your giant-ass novelty glove with you. This wonderful Pirates fan—grown man that he is—chose to exploit that loophole at last night's Cardinals-Pirates game, and the...
Riddell, The NFL's Official Helmet, Found Liable In HS Concussion Suit
A brain-damaged Colorado high schooler has won a $3.1 million judgment against helmet-maker Riddell, claiming the company failed to adequately warn users of the dangers of concussions.
