Alex Killorn Does Not Do Well In Haunted Houses
Lightning players Alex Killorn and Jason Garrison checked out a haunted house yesterday, and the best way to watch this video is to ignore Garrison. He goes first—because Killorn can’t handle it—but keep your eyes on Killorn in the back. He’s scared by everything....
This Is Why Manuel Neuer Is The Best Goalkeeper On The Planet
This save is simply preposterous. The subtle positioning, the movement, the straight up hand of steel that Bayern Munich keeper Manuel Neuer uses to keep out this point-blank Theo Walcott header is nothing short of amazing. This guy is something else....
Corey Coleman Jukes A Pair Of Defenders Halfway To Mars
Under normal circumstances, this catch here would have been a nice little eight or nine-yard pickup. But normal circumstances don’t apply to Corey Coleman, easily the best receiver in college football. ...
Bernard Pierce Doesn't Have An Explanation For Why He Blocked For The Other Team
If Bernard Pierce played for the Buccaneers, he would have done a good job on this punt from Saturday’s game, because Bobby Rainey returned the ball for 58 yards. Alas, Pierce is still on the Jaguars, so his play makes no sense....
Freddy Adu Is Still Alive, Actually Playing Some Pretty Good Soccer
The last time we heard from the young man—despite being (in)famous for over a decade, can you believe he’s still only 26?—formerly known as The Next Pelé, Freddy Adu had flopped out of Finland’s league and was spending his considerable free time on the nightclub hosting circuit. But Adu did make it ...
410-Pound Baylor Tight End Has Great Moves, Catches Touchdown Pass
LaQuan McGowan is a 6’7”, 410 pound tight end for Baylor. That’s impressive enough, but consider the move he puts on a Kansas defender here to find the end zone and give the Bears a 38-7 second quarter lead....
So, 3-On-3 Overtime Is Pretty Fun, Huh?
Along with coach’s challenges, the most noticeable new wrinkle in the NHL this season is the debut of 3-on-3 overtimes meant to decrease the number of games that go to a shootout. We saw its regular-season debut in last night’s 3-2 Lightning win over the Flyers, and it looked a lot like it did in it...
Stephen A. Smith Delivers Movie-Villain Monologue On <i>First Take</i>
Stephen A. Smith, ESPN’s professional unintelligible empanada truck, tried to drop exclusive information about Kevin Durant’s free agency last week. Durant scoffed, saying that he, his family, and his friends don’t talk to Smith. Smith had a rebuttal to that rebuttal, touting his supposed insider so...
Clay Matthews Kept Picking On Colin Kaepernick
The photo above was taken during yesterday’s Packers-49ers game, right after Packers linebacker Clay Matthews sacked 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick in the third quarter. That’s Matthews stealing Kaepernick’s signature bicep-kiss celebration, which is a pretty good way to troll a quarterback afte...
Rays Ruin Mark Buehrle's Last Game With First Grand Slam Of The Season
The Rays haven’t had a great season. They’ll finish with a losing record, even after they most likely beat the Blue Jays today. Remarkably, Tampa Bay went the first 161 games never hitting a grand slam, despite 142 plate appearances with the bases loaded. That changed today when Joey Butler went dee...
Jose Fernandez Teases Evan Longoria After Giving Up A Home Run
Consider this friendly exchange between Jose Fernandez and Evan Longoria a change of pace from Jonathan Papelbon’s Fightin’ Around The League tour. The Rays third baseman absolutely socked an offering from the Marlins pitcher in the first inning of Thursday’s game, and in the next inning, Fernandez ...
Kevin Kiermaier Delivers 100 MPH Fastball From Center Field To Nail Runner
You don’t need MLB’s Statcast to understand that this is a great throw from Rays’ center fielder Kevin Kiermaier; that much is apparent by the ease with which he throws out the foolish runner. But it is pretty cool to see that his throw clocked in at 100.4 MPH—a speed that only a dozen or so pitcher...
Please Enjoy Bayern Munich Dressed Up And Boozing For Oktoberfest
It’s that time of year again, when all of Bavaria breaks out their finest lederhosen and dirndl skirts, and prepares to lift krug after enormous krug of the finest German beers in celebration of Oktoberfest. Bayern Munich’s players and coaching staff are no exception, and so we have loads of picture...
Aaron Rodgers Moving Around Is Its Own Kind Of Highlight
Watching Aaron Rodgers play quarterback is the most satisfying experience that the NFL currently has to offer, so we’re gonna go ahead and keep throwing confetti on him on a regular basis. We’ve been over his arm strength and ridiculous accuracy, but last night’s performance was all about that other...
Ben Revere Blows Water Jug Bath, Dumps It All Over Himself
Josh Donaldson’s solo home run gave the Blue Jays a walkoff win over the Rays Sunday, and that’s lovely, but let’s talk about Ben Revere’s water-dumping skills. The outfielder was so excited about the opportunity to dump the jug on his teammates that he totally fucked it up....
Aaron Rodgers Is So Freaking Good
The only thing more enjoyable than bad quarterbacking is the best quarterbacking, and there is no one on earth better at it than Aaron Rodgers. So I think we’d all be OK with a weekly look at the latest ungodly difficult throw that Rodgers made look easy. (I think about this strike, against the Viki...
Robert Lewandowski Loses His Motherfucking Mind, Scores 5 Times In 9 Minutes
Robert Lewandowski came on for Bayern Munich at halftime in a match they were losing 1-0 to Wolfsburg. Five minutes and 40 seconds into his appearance, his first goal hit the back of the net. Almost exactly nine minutes later, his fifth goal did the same. This man is on fire....
Jesus Christ, Manuel Neuer, What Are You Doing?
Manuel Neuer had to be so tight standing there at midfield watching that shot, praying it wouldn’t sail into the empty net he had just ran a good 50 yards away from in a crazed and failed attempt to clear the ball. That it didn’t go in goes to show how astounding Florenzi’s wondergoal last week was....
Aaron Rodgers Makes Fun Of Russell Wilson By Crediting God For The Packers' Win
After the Packers’ 27-17 win over the Seahawks last night, Aaron Rodgers gave the credit to God. Which wouldn’t be a thing, normally: athletes do that all the time. Except Rodgers is already on record as believing God doesn’t care about Packers-Seahawks games. This was a shot at Russell Wilson....
Former First Round MLB Draft Pick Arrested On Double Murder Charges
Brandon Martin, who played three years in the Tampa Bay organization after being taken by the Rays in the first round of the 2011 draft, is in custody tonight on charges of double murder....
