Brandon Phillips Freaked Juan Uribe Out With A Fake Tag
Major League Baseball is apparently all about fun and mischief tonight, as another NL second baseman tricked a baserunner with a deke. Daniel Murphy got Yoenis Cespedes with a fake throw earlier tonight, and Brandon Phillips caught Juan Uribe loafing off second base with his empty glove. Poor Uribe ...
Brandon Laird Won Free Beer For A Year With This Dinger
Brandon Laird is a 28-year-old infielder who scuffled his way to a .197 average in 53 games for three teams in three years of Major League ball. He’s currently plying his craft in Japan for the Hokkaido Nippon-Ham Fighters, who are now my favorite NPB team because that name rules (the nickname is, s...
Brandon Phillips Got Hit By Three Baseballs In One At-Bat
Tonight was not a good night for the Reds. They lost 5-3 to the Mets, and Brandon Phillips was a punching bag for the baseball throughout the course of his fourth-inning at-bat against Noah Syndergaard. ...
Brandon Marshall Found Not Liable In Civil Trial
Brandon Marshall has been found not liable in a federal civil trial resulting from the 2012 fight at a Manhattan club, during which a woman said the New York Jets wide receiver punched her in the face. Police investigated the fight in 2012 and declined to bring any criminal charges. ...
The Eerie Silence Around The Brandon Marshall Trial
For the past week, details of the night Brandon Marshall is accused of punching a woman during a Manhattan nightclub brawl in 2012 have unfurled in a federal civil courtroom. There was testimony from the woman, Christin Myles, who said Marshall punched her, leaving her eye in excruciating pain. “I h...
Steph Curry Running Away Before His Threes Go In Is Rude, Wonderful, And Demoralizing
Last night’s Warriors-Suns game was silly with highlights, even by Golden State’s inflated standards; Brandon Knight hit five audacious three pointers in the third quarter to give the Suns a double digit lead; Mo Speights went all Dirk and kept his squad in the game during that run; Leandro Barbosa ...
Arkansas QB Trying To Stretch His Lil' Baby Hands In Order To Boost Draft Stock
I can’t imagine how stressful it must be to be a prospect at the NFL combine, where every aspect of your physical being is broken down and scrutinized in absurd detail, and the slightest deficiency can sink your draft stock. So it’s no wonder that Arkansas quarterback Brandon Allen is stressed out a...
Brandon Marshall Says He Hasn't Talked To Jay Cutler In Two Years... Wait, What?
Jets receiver Brandon Marshall was on the Rich Eisen Show yesterday, and the two got to talking about quarterbacks. When Eisen asked how long it had been since Marshall had spoken to former teammate and Bears quarterback Jay Cutler, Marshall gave an interesting answer:...
Brandon Ingram Dunks It Over And Through A Pair Of Defenders
Man, if you wanna stop your teammates from getting jammed on, maybe do more than just sort of put your hands up and chest at Brandon Ingram?...
Brandon Weeden Roasted Jerry Jones
Brandon Weeden began this season as a Cowboy and is going to end it among the thicket of, oh, let’s say, imperfect QBs leading the Texans into the playoffs (unless the Colts somehow beat the 3,300:1 odds stacked against them). I’m sure he didn’t imagine he’d play much this season, let alone start fo...
How Did Brandon McManus Shank That Kick So Badly?
It’s a good thing Broncos kicker Brandon McManus got the chance the redeem himself with a 37-yard winner in overtime, because if his last appearance on the field had been the incomprehensibly shanked attempt that would have won the game at the end of regulation, he’d probably be locked in Peyton Man...
Brandon Browner, Who Is Bad, Makes Fun Of Shannon Sharpe's Teeth
Brandon Browner has had a horrendous season just in terms of defensive coverage. Add in the absurd amount of penalties, and the Saints cornerback is on the verge of making history....
Even NFL Trash Talking Has Its Limits
Just before halftime of the Jets’ 23-20 OT win over the Giants, WR Brandon Marshall got into it with DT Cullen Jenkins. Marshall addressed the scuffle after the game, revealing a little bit about the fascinating code of shit-talking: at least to Marshall, talking about a man’s wife is beyond the pal...
BYU's Nick Emery Ejected For Throwing A Cheap Shot To The Face
BYU freshman Nick Emery was assessed a flagrant fouled two and tossed from tonight’s rivalry game against Utah, after he socked Brandon Taylor with no apparent provocation. As Taylor lay on the floor holding his face, Emery stared him down:...
Brandon Knight Spins His Defender Like A Top
Brandon Knight is a solid player who has had the misfortune of being on the wrong end of a few memorable plays. With that in mind, it’s nice to see him clowning on someone else for once:...
Will Manny Pacquiao's Final Opponent Be Revealed Tonight?
The week in boxing news was dominated by a fighter who isn’t even currently in training: Manny Pacquiao. Even after an uninspired and perhaps compromised performance against Floyd Mayweather, Pacquiao remains the biggest, most marketable name in the sport. And the race to be Pacquiao’s next foe—in w...
Brandon Marshall Says The Cowboys Are Failing Greg Hardy
Everyone has opinions on Greg Hardy’s sideline blow-up on Sunday. Few come from a place as informed as those of Jets receiver Brandon Marshall, one of football’s smartest guys—and a man who’s done some very terrible things that include violence against women....
Brandon Marshall Says His Failed Lateral Was "The Worst Play In NFL History"
That’s hyperbole, of course. Mark Sanchez was right there on the Eagles sideline for this one, and he could tell you about a worse play that took place in this same stadium. But Marshall’s lateral attempt that donked directly off an opponent’s facemask was momentous in the same tragicomic way....
