Daniel Murphy Just Keeps Mashing, Might Be Possessed
A Mets source reiterated to the Daily News yesterday that Daniel Murphy’s astounding postseason play hasn’t altered the club’s plan to let him leave this offseason.

TBS Postgame Show Features On-Air "Motherfuck"
As a cable channel, TBS is legally free to broadcast whatever foul language it likes. We can’t imagine sponsors are too happy to hear “motherfuckin’” on the MLB postgame show, though....
Kyle Schwarber Was Once A High School Show Choir Stud
Cubs rookie Kyle Schwarber is now best known as the guy who mashed a tater onto the top of the Wrigley Field video board, but socking prodigious dingers isn’t his only skill.

Here’s Anthony Rizzo at Cubs BP this afternoon:...
All Hell Breaks Loose In Mass Brawl During USA-Mexico Game
Normally, stadium fight videos involve long scenes of exposition and short, not very satisfying bursts of action. This, however, is like a Tati movie (only it’s actually entertaining): hardly any dialogue and so many concurrent battles that you hardly know where to look....
The Cubs Will Leave Kyle Schwarber's Home Run Ball On Top Of The Video Board
When Kyle Schwarber crushed his mammoth home run last night, nobody was really sure where it landed, until a picture of a baseball sitting atop the giant video board in right field started making the rounds....
May The Cubs Never Stop Mashing These Dingers
This is a screenshot of a Cubs fan losing his mind right after Kyle Schwarber hit a ball so goddamn hard that it exited our atmosphere and now lies sprinkled amongst the stars like cosmic dust.

The Cubs Socked Six Dingers Last Night! Man! <i>Six!</i>
Hot dang! Six! That’s how many taters the Chicago Cubs mashed off the St. Louis Cardinals’ butt pitchers yesterday evening. That’s a postseason record, and it has the Cubs one win from the NLCS....
Listen To Jim Nantz And Phil Simms Debate Greg Hardy
CBS broadcasters Jim Nantz and Phil Simms had a very telling debate about Greg Hardy during the first half of today’s game between the Cowboys and Patriots.

Chiefs Fans Scrap It Out In Stadium Bathroom
Was someone trying to cut? Did one of them dribble on the other guy’s shoes? Did they wash their hands after? Why is one of the numerous Break It Up Guys wearing flip flops? So many questions, so few answers....
Danny Boyle Movies, Ranked
Danny Boyle is one of the most quietly adventurous filmmakers working today. He’ll do a science-fiction movie, then a period piece, then a Tarantino-type thriller, then a romantic comedy, then a conventional biopic, and he won’t so much as blink once. He is an auteur of the old-fashioned sort: His m...
I Hope The Cubs And Pirates Hate Each Other Now

Kyle Schwarber Crushes Two-Run Homer Into The Allegheny

<i>Steve Jobs</i> May Be About The Apple Guru, But Aaron Sorkin Is The Real Star
The trick to enjoying an Aaron Sorkin project is to never take it as seriously as he does. The creator of The West Wing and The Newsroom and the Oscar-winning screenwriter of The Social Network doesn’t write dialogue—he stages showy talk-fests that are meant to either show off how smart his characte...
The Cubs Might Have Screwed Themselves By Screwing Kris Bryant
This Wednesday, the Cubs play the Pirates in the NL wildcard game. The game is in Pittsburgh, but it’s worth noting that the Cubs finished one win away from hosting it themselves. The slimness of that margin should send Cubs fans back to April, when their front office decided to detain Kris Bryant f...
