Cleveland Paper Told Columnist To Write Apology Letter To Dan Gilbert
Cleveland Scene has a well-reported feature out today that attempts to dig into what role Cavaliers owner Dan Gilbert's company, Quicken Loans, played in the subprime mortgage collapse of 2007. There's a lot of good stuff in the story, but one particular instance of Dan Gilbert being a thin-skinned ...
Coors, The Original Trophy Beer (!?), Is Making A Comeback
'Tis the season when lazy bloggers start thinking about how to recycle a year's worth of crap into the awful-yet-beloved "Best Of" lists that allow us to expend as little energy as possible while keeping the internet fed over the holidays. I'll surely do my part with a Best Beers I Drank In 2014 i...
Dirk Nowitzki Says He Invented The "White Version" Of The Dream Shake
With 23 points last night, Dirk Nowitzki moved into ninth place on the NBA all-time scoring list. He passed Rockets legend Hakeem Olajuwon, meaning that Nowitzki has now scored more points in the NBA than any other foreign-born player....
Connor McDavid's Injury Means Another Fight About Fighting
Connor McDavid, the world's top hockey prospect, injured his hand in a fight last night. The OHL's leading scorer, who "doesn't fight very often," appeared to hurt himself (at about the 30-second mark of the video) when one of his punches struck the glass....
Daniel Tosh Goes After ESPN For Ripping Off Web Redemptions
On last night's Tosh.0, host Daniel Tosh went after ESPN for biting one of his fixtures—the "Web Redemption" segment. So Tosh fired back by giving SportsCenter his own version of the Sport Science treatment:...
Randy Moss Talks About Freaking Out When He Met Deion Sanders
Back before the 1998 NFL Draft, Randy Moss says he was certain he was going to the Dallas Cowboys. Jerry Jones apparently told him the team would pick him if he was still available. (The Cowboys didn't take Moss with the eighth pick, instead drafting linebacker Greg Ellis; Moss fell all the way to t...
Pearl Jam's Mike McCready Shreds National Anthem At Sounders Match
We've mentioned this before, but instrumental national anthems are better than vocal performances nine times out of ten. Another example: Pearl Jam guitarist Mike McCready playing "The Star-Spangled Banner" before last night's MLS Cup playoff match between FC Dallas and Seattle Sounders FC....
There's No Such Thing As An Open Three When Anthony Davis Is Around
We've been here before, but it's always fun to gawk at Anthony Davis's ability to bend space-time and swallow shots that really have no business getting blocked....
Marshawn Lynch Makes Seahawks Kicker Steven Hauschka Dance With Him
Steven Hauschka isn't really "dancing"; he's basically moving around so Marshawn Lynch doesn't inadvertently horse-collar him. If Beast Mode wants to dance, you dance....
Delirium Tremens: A Refreshingly Morbid Belgian Ale
Last week, Esquire published a gentle little rant decrying the rise of lower-alcohol session beer. The author's mistaken thesis is that the praise pendulum has swung too far away from the sort of mighty, boozy beers he prefers and too close to an imaginary wave of thin, watery Bud Light-alikes who...
Korean Legend Dae-Sung Koo Gets An Entertaining Ejection At 45
Pitcher Dae-Sung Koo was only in the MLB for 2005, but he had one memorable highlight that season when he scorched a double off Randy Johnson. (It was a neat moment.) Now 45 and a legend in Korean baseball, Koo pitches for the Australian Baseball League's Sydney Blue Sox, and though Sunday's ejectio...
David Moyes Is Back ... For Now
Well, it looked touch and go there for a minute, but sure enough, Real Sociedad have announced David Moyes as their new manager. Hey, Moyes managed to not mess something up!...

One Of The Weirdest Moments Ever On <em>Monday Night Football</em>, Made Weirder
How bad was tonight's Eagles-Panthers blowout? So bad that Mike Tirico and Jon Gruden started making protein shakes in the booth. That was weird enough, but we scraped together the best Soviet-era electronica to make it even weirder, and more stupid....
Phil Jackson Gets Mad At Perfectly Legitimate Criticism
The New York Knicks aren't a very good basketball team, and at times this season they have clearly struggled to implement coach Derek Fisher's version of the triangle offense. When asked by reporters about the Knicks, this led NBA commissioner Adam Silver to direct some light teasing their way. Via ...
The Dez Bryant Smear Season Is Upon Us
Dez Bryant will be a free agent after the season, and the Cowboys would prefer to hammer out a contract extension for the wide receiver before then. There are very few times in a career when a football player has any leverage in a negotiation with an NFL team, and Bryant is currently enjoying one su...
