High School Runner With Multiple Sclerosis Races Until She Collapses

Once Again, It's Yuna Kim Vs. The World
After weeks of hype surrounding 15-year-old Yulia Lipnitskaya's gold medal Sochi prospects, the Russian rising star crumbled under the pressure Wednesday, eating the ice on an uncharacteristic fall during her short program–and opening the door wide for a slew of competitors to challenge reigning Oly...
Ahmad Brooks Flew, Cam Newton Flopped, And We All Laughed
We featured Ahmad Brooks's premature escalation briefly yesterday, but it seems the moment from yesterday's 49ers-Panthers game deserves a bit more inspection. After all, there's not one but two meaningful moments here: the flight of Brooks and the flop of Newton....
Panthers Write Own Demise With Huge, Fruitless Drives
The Carolina Panthers weren't a total dud in their first playoff appearance since 2008. Their defense sufficiently contained Colin Kaepernick and the 49ers for the most part. But stalled drives killed them. Carolina burned over 17 minutes of game time on two offensive drives, coming away with just t...
Greg Hardy's Dedicated To Being "Kraken"
We've previously highlighted Panthers defensive end Greg Hardy and his tendency to dub himself "Kraken," but maybe we didn't realize the two might be overlapping personalities. Kraken's apparently not as disposable as one of Clinton Portis's alter egos....
Colin Kaepernick At Hooters
A reader sends along this picture with only a subject that reads "Kaep at Hooters in Charlotte." Missing are the trademark chicken wings or human breasts, so it's hard to tell—though you do get an overall feeling of desperation—but it probably is a Hooters. It looks like he's signing an autograph fo...
Ric Flair Claims He's Received Death Threats From Panthers Fans
Ric Flair is one of North Carolina's favorite sons. He's also a stylin', profilin', limousine ridin', jet flyin', kiss-stealin', wheelin' and dealin' son of a gun, so when the 49ers invited him to address the team, he said hell yes. But now the 49ers are heading to Charlotte, and Panthers fans aren'...
Steve Spurrier Is In Disguise
"Steve who? Spurrier? Nope, no idea who that is. Sorry, I'm Barry Alvarez. Clearly not the guy you are looking for."...
Erin Andrews Asks Where Panthers Have To Get Better; Cam: "Charlotte"
Panthers quarterback Cam Newton spoke with Erin Andrews after a tight win over the Falcons for the NFC South title. There was a funny failure to communicate at one point, a few seconds after the minute mark in the video....
Chart: All 64 Potential NFC Seeding Outcomes
There's been a lot of talk about the injustice of an 11-5 Arizona Cardinals team not making the playoffs—a distinct possibility!—but we could also have a 12-4 team as the 5 seed and an 11-5 team as the 6 in the NFC....
A Christmas Carol For White Sox Fans
Christmas Carols always bring to mind an old family friend who passed away a few years ago. Sam was a long-suffering Cubs fan—is there any other kind?—who used to sing a variation of "Adeste Fideles" that paid tribute to the Go-Go White Sox. ...
Peter King Should Shut Up About Cam Newton
During the fourth quarter of yesterday's Saints-Panthers game, with the Panthers down three points and running out of time, Peter King sent the following tweets:...
Panthers Fan Gets Drenched By All Of The Rain
At least he has that thin plastic poncho keeping him damp instead of soaked....
Never Let A Cop In Your House: The Will Graves Story
This story is so stupid, I feel bad making you read it, but it's a teachable moment. Former North Carolina guard, Will Graves, was cited last week for misdemeanor charges when cops searched his home and found eight marijuana seeds, three (!) blunts and two burnt blunts, all helpfully scare-quoted in...
Greg Hardy's Explanation For "Kraken From Hogwarts" Clears Up Nothing
On Sunday Night Football, Panthers DE Greg Hardy introduced himself as "Kraken" and said his alma mater is Hogwarts. Surely that's crazy talk. But after reading Hardy's explanation, perhaps we were the crazy ones all along....
Greg Hardy Is "Kraken," And He Went To Hogwarts
Donning sunglasses, Panthers defensive end Greg Hardy said his name was "Kraken" and that he attended Hogwarts during SNF's player intros. But the nickname wasn't totally random....
