Hoo Boy, The Padres Lost In The Dumbest Way Imaginable
You really will not believe this one. The Astros had a man on second with two outs in the bottom of the 10th inning last night, against the Padres, in a scoreless game. Batter Alex Bregman popped a rising 3-2 fastball from Padres pitcher Phil Maton straight up in the air. Easy out! Guaranteed out. R...

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.

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.

The knockout you are about to watch was weird as hell, and yet somehow it was just a prelude to something significantly weirder.

So Uh Marc-Andre Fleury Could Be Out A While

The Arizona Wildcats Are The Fun Kind Of NCAA Bad Guys
Seen through a certain college basketball purist’s eyes, Arizona are the unquestionable villains of this year’s NCAA Tournament.

Johnny Gaudreau Got High-Sticked And Then Ejected For Complaining About It
The Calgary Flames had a crummy night Wednesday as they lost 5-2 to the Colorado Avalanche, but winger Johnny Gaudreau might have had the crummiest night of all.

Drexel Sets Division I Record With Incredible 34-Point Comeback Win
Drexel fell behind 5-0 at the start of tonight’s game against Delaware, and for quite a while, it didn’t look like they’d be able to crawl out of that hole. With a few minutes remaining in the first half, they were down by 34, and by the break, they’d only managed to cut that to 27 points. But in th...
Netherlands Short-Track Team Wins Bronze Medal For World-Record Race, Didn’t Even Compete In Final
Short-track speed skating has been popular since its introduction to the Winter Olympics in 1992 for two reasons: its high-speed, exciting races and the propensity for athletes to crash. And in yesterday’s women’s 3,000-meter short-track relay, fans got to see both. ...
Andrew Luck Swears He's On The Comeback Trail, For Real This Time
Andrew Luck has not played competitive football since 2016, because of an injury he suffered in 2015, thanks to numerous and nebulous setbacks and relapses. So, now that it’s 2018, how’s the onetime all-world QB doing? ...
Alexandre Lacazette Is Injured And Arsenal Might Be Screwed
Arsenal came into this past weekend’s must-win North London Derby and proceeded to get comprehensively smashed up by their fiercest rivals in a manner that would’ve cratered the Gunners’ confidence if not for the fact that it’s been evident for so long now that Tottenham are simply a much better tea...
Steve Kerr Let His Players Coach The Game And It Worked
Okay, yes, maybe he gets points deducted for pulling this move during a game against the pitiful Suns, but Warriors head coach Steve Kerr did something genuinely cool and unexpected last night: he let his players run every timeout huddle. The Warriors won 129-83....
Louisiana Tech Player Ejected For Being Too Rad
Unless you live in Ruston, La., chances are the name Jacobi Boykins won’t ring a bell. That’s a shame, because the senior Louisiana Tech guard is and has been a great watch during his four years with the Bulldogs, albeit one sequestered to Conference USA games. He’s the best three-point shooter on a...
