These Newborns Have Been Bruins Fans For About As Long As Most Adult Bostonians
We kid, we kid. Obviously there are no parallels to be drawn between the litter at this area hospital, brainwashed from their first days to support the local hockey club, and grown Bruins fans, who made the informed choice themselves, all coincidentally around the spring of 2008....
Dirk Nowitzki Dance Party!
Behold Dirk Nowitzki: America's favorite German, the NBA Finals MVP, the man who made being a mostly-unknown national hero look so easy, and the man who made a one-legged step-back jumper look even easier. But! We've unearthed one weakness. Dirk Nowitzki is a rather tortured booty-dropper....
May <i>SI's</i> Creepy Jason Kidd Photo Forever Invade Your Nightmares
Tipster Neil alerts us to SI.com's album of "Rare Jason Kidd Photos" (note to self: assemble album of rare Jason Kapono photos, don't tell anyone, profit), and one photo in particular....
Tired Of Horse Racing? Consider Cow Cycling
This comes to us from France's Critérium du Dauphiné, one of this month's warm-ups for the Tour de France. There are a lot of climbs in the course, and, well, these cows saw one that looked like fun and figured they'd join in. Could they beat the horses that ran in the Belmont? Shittier horses? Wh...
In Wrestlemania VI Rematch, Ultimate Warrior To Yell At Hulk Hogan A Lot
The Ultimate Warrior (legal name: "Warrior") is pissed at Hulk Hogan for something or other. That includes a handful of YouTube videos, recorded on his desktop camera in his den like so many American teenagers. I'm not sure exactly what he's mad about, because I'll be damned if I'm going to watch ...
The Mutton Bustin' Season Is Officially Open
It's that time of year again, when small hapless children have their skulls driven deep into the dirt by disdainful mutton. And then we laugh at them (the children). But we're not merely laughing at pain in a public setting. No, we're also celebrating mutton. Look at the disdainful expression on th...
Woman Who Used To Bang Kim Kardashian's Fiancé Shopping Book About Banging Kim Kardashian's Fiancé
Here's a somewhat amusing pitch forwarded to us by two people in the past 12 hours from an aspiring author named Lisa Monks who's writing a tell-all about some of her NBA bedroom conquests. From her [sic]'d email — sent to a couple gossip mags — it promises these not-so-explosive bombshells:...
Ronnie Woo Woo Gives Up On The Cubs, Wants Paul McCartney Tickets Instead
Our tipster Steven works for a ticket company out of Chicago, and wrote in to tell us that he'd had beloved Cubs fan Ronnie "Woo Woo" Wickers in the office today. He even attached a photo: "Woo_Woo_Office_Visit.jpg." Ronnie was wearing his Cubs uniform, which is no surprise; what is is that one of t...
Man Gets Flipper On His Stump
I don't freakin' know. Via Ebert, because why the hell not....
Let The Tender Majesty Of Freestyle Canoeing Guide You Into The Warm June Night
Skip to 1:20, turn the volume up to a sufficient, yet not excessive level, and watch Marc Ornstein's canoe glide across the lake like a waterborne gazelle on a half-dose of Ambien....
Here's 100 Japanese Children Playing Against A Professional Soccer Team
The best parts are the corner kick (1:44) and the goal (3:50). I always wondered about how this would work, whether skill could overcome large numbers. Would it be possible to put a group together of 8 NBA players that couldn't beat the Heat starting lineup? Can an outfield of the two best center ...
Tim Tebow Dreams Of A World In Which College Athletes Get Paid Enough To Buy Scooters And Eat At Outback
Tim Tebow was on the Daily Show last night with a brand new tagline: Author. If you haven't heard, by way of the book's trailer (this is a thing that is apparently done quite regularly now) or his Colorado-to-Florida book tour, the 23-year-old quarterback has released his first-quarter-of-life mem...
Tiny Child Inspires Us To Get Up Off Our Asses To Pwactice Widing A Bike
With the way cynicism travels through generations these days, we'll give him about six to eight years before he realizes that compared to the rest of life, riding a bike isn't really a big deal at all. But my god, what good cheer! Consider this cold heart (especially from someone who also struggle...
Shaq: One Of The Greatest To Ever Play And Star Of One Of The Most Awful Movies Ever Made
We shared a few good stories with you today, and so we will end Wednesday with nothing but whimsy, from the man who has perhaps the best innate understanding of whimsy in the game. Here is Shaq, at age 24, emerging from a magic boombox as a freestyling genie with the promise of three wishes in the...
Jimmer Will Be A Great NBA Player If You Let Him Shoot From 20 Feet Without Anyone Guarding Him
Jimmer Fredette, who is perhaps the ideal Indiana Pacer, had a pre-draft workout in Indianapolis today, and Pacers announcer Michael Grady took footage of his shoot-around. Behold the Jimmer, taking and making 15 straight set shots from behind the arc, then buckling just slightly, and closing out ...
"God Has A Plan For Us And We Will Be Fine. We Will Be Buckeyes Forever."
So ended Jim Tressel's resignation letter to Ohio State president Gordon Gee, sans exclamation points or "Go Bucks." This would appear to be his Rapture, whatever God's plans were....
Here's Video Of A College Catcher Almost Throwing A Baseball Through A College Pitcher's Neck
When University of Florida catcher Mike Zunino flung the ball toward second base during yesterday's game against Georgia, it's not like he meant to nail his sophomore pitcher Brian Johnson behind the ear or anything. He just did....
German Women Adept At Milking Cows, Plowing Fields Vie For Calendar-Modeling Gig
Two hundred women applied but just 25 made the first cut. From there, the Hamburg Chamber of Trade will whittle down the list to determine who has what it takes to represent not only a nation, but a way of life, in the 2012 German Farm Girls Calendar....
This Memorial Day Weekend, Don't Forget To Prepare For The Penis Inspector
As far as we know, this isn't real. Carlmont High (Calif.) students don't have to "ensure that their penises are clean and orderly," nor do they have to procure a friend's pubes if they have trimmed their own. It's a senior prank, and a well-executed one at that....
And Here's A Brutal Hurdle Fall To End The Workday
Before you click play, know that she goes down on the final hurdle. The anticipation will be dreadful....
