I Can't Stop Looking At This GIF Of These Two Lakers Bros
This happened at yesterday's Lakers game. I can't stop watching it. I mean, just look at this fucking guy.

Tyler Seguin Has A Foolproof Method For Dealing With The Ladies
The Bruins' Tyler Seguin is playing for Swiss team EHC Biel, and he's young, handsome, rich, and single. (Also, possibly a dick to women—we don't know the backstory.)

Saturday night, Adrien "The Problem" Broner knocked out Antonio DeMarco in the eighth round, on HBO, after thoroughly beating his ass.

Brad Keselowski Wins The Sprint Cup, Does Awesome Half-Drunk Interview On <em>SportsCenter</em>
Brad Keselowski won the Sprint Cup last night, which is a NASCAR thing, I think. After winning the cup he went on SportsCenter to give a post-race interview, at which point he transformed into your semi-drunk friend who always corners you at the bar and insists on on the two of you having a "real ...
Report: The NFL Made Disability Payments For Brain Trauma While Publicly Denying That Football Causes Brain Trauma
Officially, it was three years ago that the NFL first acknowledged that repeated concussions can indeed have a long-term effect on mental health. In the six years before that, the league had taken the opposite stance, publishing a series of scientific papers that denied any link between football and...
Ed Hochuli Reviewed An Un-Reviewable Play And Then Said He Did Not Review It Because It Was Un-Reviewable
Cleveland unexpectedly forced Dallas to overtime, and after an incomplete pass to Miles Austin with 8:35 left to go in the extra period Cleveland called timeout—presumably to force a replay from the booth. Cleveland thought the play was a catch, fumble and Browns recovery. Almost immediately, CBS ...

The People That Own Nets.com Are Now Redirecting The Page To The Knicks' All-Star Ballot
A while back, we looked into who owns Nets.com, and why that web address doesn't redirect to the NBA website's subpage for the Brooklyn Nets. Type in the name for any other team in the league, and you'll be redirected to NBA.com/TEAM. If you typed in Nets.com a few months ago, you were redirected to...
Arizona Quarterback Returns From Concussion, Promptly Pukes Again
Remember Matt Scott? He's the Arizona quarterback who unleashed a flood of vomit after a helmet-to-helmet collision against USC a few weeks ago.

Your College Football Open Thread, For Talking About Basically Anything But College Football
Is this the worst week of college football in the entire season? Emphatically yes, it is the worst.

The NCAA Has Reinstated UCLA's Shabazz Muhammad
Just another day in the lovely, just world of college sports. UCLA's star freshman, Shabazz Muhammad, was declared ineligible before his first game last week. His crime?

<em>Life Of Pi</em>'s Ang Lee: The World's Least-Cool Great Director
It's hard to classify Ang Lee, whose latest movie, Life of Pi, comes out on Wednesday. He's a respected, acclaimed director—he won an Oscar for Brokeback Mountain—but he's not in any one niche. He's not a purely commercial filmmaker—his one stab at that was Hulk—but he's also not a challenging, prov...

Mitch Albom Is The Meat In Baseball's Dumbfuck Stew
I'm gonna preface all this by telling you that I don't really watch baseball, nor do I particularly care who won the AL MVP award. But the beauty of reading a terrible Mitch Albom column is that you don't HAVE to know much about anything, because Mitch will always deliberately know less than you. Mi...
