Here's The Taunting Penalty That Almost Cost FSU The BCS Championship

Davonta Freeman was penalized 15 yards after a touchdown cut the Tigers lead to 21-19 for taunting the Auburn sideline from midfield. Th...
Russia-USA World Junior Hockey Game Ends With Silly Taunting

The Final BCS Champion Will Be Legitimate, Like Always

A dozen pale Norwegians seek shelter among the 200 stadium seats, mercifully covered by a roof. A young, bearded American wrings out a wet towel over his bald head.
