This is the real NBA Finals, the one that transcends Larry O’Brien, Kevin Durant, Kawhi Leonard, Doris Burke, Woj, Adam Silver, dynasties, the next Why-The-Lakers-Are-On-Fire tell-all, the works. This is Oakland’s last stand with the team it raised from a pup, its last healthy bite of an apple that ...

The Best Way To See America Is To Visit Every Last Minor League Ballpark
Not long after the 2017 World Series ended in a dogpile of happy Houston Astros, Bart Wilhelm began planning his first big trip of the 2018 season.

Braves Announcers Throw Exquisitely Awkward Tantrum Over Dodgers Batting Practice Attire

Officials Ruin Steeplechase Competition By Setting A Barrier Six Inches Too High
Wild shit happens in the steeplechase. Emma Coburn won last year’s world championship in part because one of the favorites ran around the first water jump instead of over it; a runner at the 2009 U.S. women’s championship broke her foot after one barrier was accidentally set at the men’s height; in ...

Suspect Leads Dozens Of Cops On Hour-Long Chase Through Countryside, Is Rewarded With Beatdown

Police Appear To Shoot Stolen Van Suspect On Live Television
KTLA in Los Angeles broadcast what appears to be a live shooting this afternoon as a suspect police say stole a van was taken down by police.

Wow That Was Some Bizarre Umpiring In Nats-Braves

Vicious Dunk Brings Down The House, Sends Coaches Scrambling

Just What The Hell Was Going On At The Warriors' Arena Groundbreaking Ceremony?<em></em>
The Golden State Warriors held a groundbreaking ceremony for their new San Francisco arena today, and befitting an ownership group that believes it’s “light-years ahead” of the rest of the NBA, it was an ostentatious display. After the mayor made an awkward racial joke and a bunch of people in suit...

Joe Flacco Regrets Buying All Those Uncomfortable Massage Chairs
Baltimore Ravens quarterback Joe Flacco has a reputation for being dull. That word isn’t pulled out of nowhere; his own father used it to describe him. It’s an apt description of a man who once roused up his team at halftime by saying, “Let’s go win a game!”...

End Of Motorcycle Chase Features Excellent Play-By-Play Announcing
Tonight a clearly unexperienced motorcyclist led L.A.-area cops on a chase that ended when he ran into a car and took off running. That led to some wonderful commentary from the KCBS chopper man as he painted a picture with words of the gent trying, and failing, to escape. Here’s an alternate angle ...

Chase Utley Turns Very Bad Play Into Very Good One
The baseball season is long and grueling and Chase Utley is 37 years old, so you can’t blame him for booting a routine ground ball here and there. The good thing about being 37 years old, though, is that it makes you crafty as hell....
