This Is What A Decisive Victory In A Jack-In-The-Box Parking Lot Looks Like
A few things can be taken from this fisticuffs festival outside a Jack-in-the-Box somewhere out there. ALWAYS guard yourself after you land a shot, especially if your foe has already landed at least three to your dome. NEVER hit a man when he's down. And YES, there are still Jack-in-the-Box eateri...
It May Be Professional Lacrosse's Season-Opener, But Teams' Fighting Skills Are In Midseason Form
I'll admit professional lacrosse is a sport beyond my professional purview, so I didn't even know they had hockey-style fights. Last night's season-opener between Rochester and Philadelphia ended with a real rumbler, though, even bringing the goalies out for fisticuffs. In the end, the fight laste...
Tom Brady's Punt Finally Brought Some Life To The Broncos Defense, If By Life You Mean Punches
Blame Von Miller for this dirty hit that is an unfortunate coda to his otherwise spectacular season. But quick kicks always tend to result in some kind of craziness; like turnovers, they put players outside their comfort zone. In this case, it was reason for Miller to go on an assault mission, th...
J.R. Smith's Sister Choked A Woman During A Brawl In China Involving The Same Team That Beat Up Georgetown
Former Nuggets guard J.R. Smith is currently playing in China for the Zhejiang Golden Bulls, having been unable to escape his Chinese Basketball Association contract when the NBA lockout ended. Zhejiang faced the Bayi Rockets (you remember them as the Chinese military team who brawled with Georgeto...
The "Respect United" Soccer Tournament Was Canceled After Fans Brawled With Riot Police
Fans of the German indoor soccer team St. Pauli—perhaps after imbibing too many of a beverage hawked by local Fräuleins—brawled with spectators and Hamburg police, bringing a premature end to the Schweinske Cup tournament....
Alex Ovechkin Accused Of Spitting In Opponent's Face
A little run-in between Ovechkin and Blue Jackets winger/agitator Derek Dorsett on Saturday went mostly unnoticed: Dorsett ran Ovechkin, Ovechkin got in his face, the two received matching minors, then everybody went home to celebrate New Year's Eve. But now Dorsett is accusing Ovechkin of spittin...

Of Course Flyers And Rangers Fans Brawled Outside Of Geno's Steaks After The Winter Classic
Writes tipster Kenneth Brock, "I was debating on even sending this to y'all. Born and raised in Philly, breathe the city and its sports teams. We get a bad enough rap as is through the national media. Goddamn snowballs at Santa. Wasn't even a twinkle in my parents eye when that bullshit went down....
Some Cross-Dressing Banjo Players Got Into A Brawl In Philadelphia On Sunday
On New Year's Day in Philly, we have something called the Mummer's Parade. Stripped down to its basics, it's an event in which men dress in feathers, a wide array of costumes or as women and prance down Broad Street. Some people think it's a grand time. They're entitled to that opinion, I guess....
Teenage Girl With Brain Tumor Gets Concussed By Drunk San Jose Sharks Fan
Maggie Herger is a 16 year old Vancouver Canucks fan with a brain tumor who recently had a run in with the fine sports fans of California. Maggie was assaulted and battered by a drunken female San Jose fan while at a Canucks-Sharks game at the "Shark Tank" with her sister Maya, who gave her the tic...
About That Whole "Good Will Toward Men" Thing
It's Christmas Eve, but there was no peace on Earth in (apparently) heathen Hawai'i, as the first half of the Sheraton Hawai'i Bowl got ugly with a brief bit of violence after Southern Miss scored a touchdown to take a lead into the locker room. [ESPN]...
Yorvit Torrealba Spread The Holiday Spirit By Slugging A Venezuelan League Umpire
Rangers catcher Yorvit Torrealba is spending the offseason playing for his hometown Leones del Caracas of the Venezuelan League, and after missing badly for strike three took his frustrations out on the umpire in an ugly way. It was, if my Spanish is correct, one of two attacks on the home plate u...
Arizona State And Southern Miss Rumble After This All-Time Classic Sucker Punch
The resulting fight in Tempe wasn't on the scale of the one between Xavier and Cincinnati last week, but the punch that sparked it is so brutally dirty it's almost a work of art. After getting a forearm to the jaw from USM's Torye Pelham, ASU's Muscovite center Ruslan Pateev returns the favor with...
Penn State Wide Receiver Reportedly Knocks Out Quarterback Matt McGloin In Locker Room Scuffle
According to various Penn State reporters' twitter feeds, handily pieced together by Larry Brown Sports, the Penn State locker room played host to some more horsing around today as wide receiver Curtis Drake knocked out Matt McGloin following some "jawing in practice." ...
ESPN Personalities Shill For Penny-Auction Site, Despite The Worldwide Leader's "Endorsement Guidelines" [UPDATE]
I don't know if penny-auction site SkoreIt.com is a scam, but googling "skoreit scam" returns about 21,000 results, most of them from sites like RipoffReport, ComplaintsBoard, ScamBook, and FindTheScam....
Finally, A Turkish Street Fight Set To An "Eye Of The Tiger" Score
The guy in the white turtleneck. Yeah, that one. He has some problems in this little Turkish traffic to-do, what with his inability to land a 1) punch or 2) acrobatic sidekick without getting dropped to the street. A soul-crushing defeat, to be sure. Took his time. Took his chances. Ended up laid ...
Xavier President Father Michael Graham Allegedly Threw Holy Water On Rowdy Fans As The Crosstown Brawl Raged
This is too weird to believe if we hadn't received multiple tips about it, and here's WLW 700 host Bill Cunningham on yesterday's program relating that he, too, had heard about Xavier president Fr. Michael Graham's bizarre behavior during the brawl that broke out in the Crosstown Shootout....
Cincinnati's Crosstown Rivalry Turned Ugly, Yet Again
The yearly chili debate tournament known as the Crosstown Rivalry (Cincinnati representing the classic Skyline brand while Xavier speaks on behalf of Gold Star) was brought to a premature end with this brawl in the final seconds—possibly due to a third party agitator arguing on behalf of the tradi...

Ukrainian Women's Rights Activists Protest Legalizing Prostitution By Getting Naked
Makes sense to everyone, right? The group, Femen ("Femen has established an international reputation for staging semi-naked protests in Ukraine and abroad."), held the naked demonstration outside Kiev's Olympic Stadium. They claim that UEFA is attempting to legalize prostitution during the 2012 Eur...
