Let's Enjoy Some Pictures Of The Day In Baseball Donnybrooks
Baseball featured one tussle in the afternoon (Padres-Rockies, after a few hit batsmen) and one in the evening (Yankees-Red Sox, after one hit batsman and one hard slide) and, as always, the resulting photographs from Getty and the Associated Press are much more engrossing than any video can be.

Andre Ingram Is The NBA's Best Story
It took Andre Ingram 10 years and 384 games in the minors and overseas—in Orem, Utah; El Segundo, California; Perth, Australia; back to El Segundo—never making more than $30,000 a year, and working as a math tutor to make ends meet.

32-Year-Old Andre Ingram Stole The Show In His NBA Debut
When the Los Angeles Lakers signed career minor leaguer Andre Ingram to his first NBA contract today, it felt mostly inconsequential to all but Ingram himself—or at most, a sort of cute story.

Can I Bribe You With A Beautiful Goal To Get You To Read A Short Blog About The Capitals' Playoff Chances?
You’ll see Andre Burakovsky’s goal being referred to as a goal of the year candidate, because A) it was very pretty, and B) hockey writers have a distinct lack of pithy descriptors for really good goals. It’s sort of silly, because there’s no actual official “goal of the year” award! But at least it...

This San Diego Radio Station Has Existed For A Month And Is Already A Disaster

Let's Remember Some Guys: 1992 Baseball Guys
Thomas Pynchon’s The Crying Of Lot 49 is not as long or as dense or as otherwise inaccessible as the novels that make up the fat part of his canon. It’s the one you read if you didn’t quite feel like committing to V or Gravity’s Rainbow, and it’s the one a savvy professor would assign in a college l...

The Arizona Wildcats Are The Fun Kind Of NCAA Bad Guys
