Bottomless Idiot On The Field Invades Brewers Game, Gets Tackled
Today’s Giants-Brewers game was interrupted in the second inning by a fan who shed his pants somewhere in the process of getting onto the field. There are only two short clips so far—which show the man already tackled by ballpark security—but there are a couple of excellent wire photos, including on...

Kyrie Irving Dribbled Away LeBron James's Moment
With under a minute to play in last night’s Game 3 of the NBA Finals and the Cleveland Cavaliers leading 113-111, Golden State’s Kevin Durant calmly stepped into and nailed a long three-pointer right over LeBron James’s outstretched hand. It gave the Warriors a one-point lead, and left the Cavaliers...

Brian Burke To Calgary: Nice Hockey Team You Got Here, Shame If Something Happened To It
It’s remarkable that one of the most blatant threats to leave a city somehow begins with the words “we’re not going to make the threat to leave”:...

The Warriors Deserve Your Awe
I won’t argue that the first two games of these NBA Finals were great television, or that last night’s Game 3, which was thrilling and spectacularly played and felt like a Game 7 from the perspective of someone rooting for the Cavs, did a whole lot to salvage this series. The Warriors are now up 3-0...

LeBron Is Not Enough
Remember the 2015 Finals? Kyrie Irving got injured, Kevin Love missed the whole series, and so LeBron James had to take the court with the likes of Matthew Dellavedova on a coffee binge, an empty bag of Lay’s chips, a childhood stuffed animal, and a rock he found out in the parking lot. Timofey Mozg...

The Cavaliers Almost, Almost, Almost Went And Did It
Tonight, for the first time in these NBA Finals, the Cavaliers held a second-half lead. They held a fourth-quarter lead. They were actually playing credible defense. Kyrie Irving was making all sorts of ridiculous drives to the basket with no one there to stop him. LeBron was LeBron. It felt, if not...

MLB Puts Hunter Strickland's Brawl-Worn Jersey Up For Auction, Then Backs Off
A few weeks after suspending Hunter Strickland six games for his brawl with Bryce Harper, MLB tried to directly spin a profit from the fight—selling off his game-worn jersey on the league’s official online auction site, advertising the fact that he was ejected while wearing it. And then a few hours ...

"Fuck You, I'm Millwall!" Londoner Says He Took On Bridge Attackers After A Few Pints
A soccer fan from London said he tried to stop the attackers on London Bridge on Saturday after drinking, he said, “four or five pints, nothing major.” According to the Guardian, the Millwall fan, Roy Larner, was stabbed in the attack and was taken to the hospital with serious injuries, but is now o...

Bill Belichick Seems Thrilled To Chat About Tom Brady's Alleged Unreported Brain Injuries

Brock Lesnar Finally Has A Challenger
Part-timers have held a WWE championship a few times in recent years, and they necessarily haven’t defended their belts very much. The Rock ended CM Punk’s 434-day reign in January 2013, beat Punk in a rematch the next month, then lost it to John Cena at WrestleMania. That was a barnstorming tour co...

Twin brothers and failed NFL coaches Rex and Rob Ryan were in Nashville for the Stanley Cup Final, and they had more fight in them than P.K. Subban and Evgeni Malkin....

Steph Curry Gave LeBron James The Runaround
It’s sort of hard to crystallize a Warriors attack that could only be described as “relentless”—in both games so far, the Cavs have survived for a half, then understandably given way under a barrage that just doesn’t let up, and comes from so many different angles. (Seriously, how many times did a C...

Boy, this was fun to watch, wasn’t it? ...

Brandon Phillips Is Not Happy That The Reds Let Someone Else Wear No. 4
Brandon Phillips spent a decade wearing No. 4 for the Reds before the team dealt him away this winter in a transaction that was years in the making. While Cincinnati had been trying to move Phillips since 2013—very logically, as they have no shortage of middle infield prospects and he’s in his mid-t...

Coworker, Athletes Give Jason Whitlock Shit For Criticizing LeBron On Racism<em></em>
Jason Whitlock, a Fox Sports 1 employee whose purpose is to make Colin Cowherd look somehow pleasant by comparison, had quite an angle on police reports that a racist slur was spray-painted on LeBron James’s Los Angeles home. The All Takes Matter host called it a “disrespectful inconvenience” for Ja...

No Mistakes Allowed
Close one eye and squint with the other, and last night’s Game 1 box score starts to look like a positive one for the Cavaliers: The Warriors only had two players score in double figures; Klay Thompson and Draymond Green combined to shoot 6-of-28; LeBron James and Kyrie Irving did their thing.
