Don Cherry's Daily Sandwich Shouldn't Exist
Don Cherry’s entire shtick is being an ostentatious hockey blowhard, and while his daily lunch is a little “out there,” its bizarreness isn’t whimsical in the slightest, although biohazards can be colorful, too. This Steve Simmons Toronto Sun column reveals Cherry’s regular lunch, which appears to ...
Twins Minor-Leaguer Pulls Off The Hidden-Ball Trick
Bases-loaded jams can be tense, but Jermaine Curtis of the Rochester Red Wings found it to be the best opportunity to clown a baserunner. The Twins’ Triple-A affiliate was down 4-3 to the Charlotte Knights in the fourth inning Tuesday when Curtis tested out the hidden-ball trick on Kevan Smith, who ...
And Here's An Inside-The-Park Home Run By ... Edwin Encarnacion??
This isn’t as iconic an entry into the genre of unexpected inside-the-park home runs as, say, this Prince Fielder gem or this Jhonny Peralta one, but it’s still pretty dang good: Edwin Encarnacion tonight, with his first inside-the-parker in more than a decade, thanks to a little defensive fuck-up b...
This Pretty Goal Will Be The Only Thing I Choose To Remember From The Red Wings' Season
On MLB opening day and with plenty of actual good NHL teams in action, there was no way in hell I was going to put myself through Red Wings-Sabres last night. So I’d be lying if I said I’ve entirely stuck by my hometown team, but still, this highlight is like the best thing I’ve seen from Detroit al...
Holy Shit, Dwight Howard Played Like It Was 2008 Tonight
Dwight Howard—the same 32-year-old that has spent the last several seasons brewing beef as he scoots from team to team, that Dwight Howard—made a little history tonight. With a 32-point, 30-rebound game in the Hornets’ win over the Nets, he put together the first 30-point, 30-rebound performance th...
Muhammad Wilkerson's Mom Goes On Radio To Blast Reporter Who Said Her Son Had "Issues With Alcohol"
Yesterday, New York Daily News reporter Manish Mehta suggested that defensive lineman Muhammad Wilkerson, who was recently cut by the Jets and is currently visiting Green Bay and New Orleans, shouldn’t sign with the Saints because of “issues with alcohol.” This understandably pissed off Wilkerson’s ...
Now This Is An Old-School Hockey Fight
The argument for fighting in hockey is twofold: that the threat of a beating serves as a deterrent, policing dirty hits against skill players, and that a good, rousing rumble can fire up an uninspired team. That hockey has neither gotten more dangerous nor less inspired as fighting had decreased dra...
Adam Hadwin Nails Insane Sidewinding Birdie Putt
This happened today in the third round of 2018 Mexico Championship at the Club de Golf Chapultepec—Adam Hadwin, who finished the day tied for 21st place, picked out a hilariously imaginative line for his birdie putt on the par-3 third hole. Check this shit out:...
Red Wings Trade Former Franchise Goalie For Melted Ice
It’s not that the Red Wings’ trade of goalie Petr Mrazek to Philadelphia was any massive surprise, or even that the Flyers screwed Detroit with an unfair deal. But when you look at what the Red Wings got in return for a guy who was once thought the be the team’s future cornerstone, it’s pretty depre...
Dwight Howard Seemingly Forgets That You're Allowed To Jump In Basketball
Dwight Howard, who is listed at 6-foot-11 with a seven-foot wingspan, decided to use absolutely none of his god-given physical gifts as he tried to score on his old team tonight. Maybe he thought it would be unfair to the shorter Evan Fournier; maybe, in a burst of whimsy, he wanted to pretend to be...
Colts Linebacker Edwin Jackson Killed By Suspected Drunk Driver
Colts linebacker Edwin Jackson and his rideshare driver were killed early Sunday morning on the shoulder of an Indianapolis highway, when a suspected drunk driver veered off the road and hit them both. Indiana State Police believe Jackson asked his driver Jeffrey Monroe to pull over because he was f...
The Blackhawks Are Just Showing Off
The Chicago Blackhawks have been skating the Red Wings out of their shiny new arena since tonight’s opening puck drop. They chased starting goalie Jimmy Howard after less than nine minutes, but they saved their prettiest goal yet for Petr Mrazek. Twenty-year-old native Michigander Alex DeBrincat, hi...
Dwight Howard Does The Big Balls Dance After Two Meaningless Free Throws
Dwight Howard, who’s averaging 52.8 percent on free throws this year, made two meaningless ones towards the end of Charlotte’s 133-109 blowout of the Wizards tonight. Afterwards, like Sam Cassell and so many others before him, he wanted us to know how big his balls were....
How Old Is Edwin Jackson?
Driving to every major league ballpark that Edwin Jackson has called home, one by one, in order, would require driving for more than 16,000 miles to reach 11 stadiums. (Toronto not included on this hypothetical road trip; he was on the Blue Jays’ roster for a few hours between trades at the 2011 dea...
Erik Karlsson Wasn't Ready For Andreas Athanasiou
It took just six seconds for young Red Wing upstart Andreas Athanasiou to get the winning goal in overtime against the Senators Wednesday night. And for that, he can thank the best defenseman in hockey....
Mets Owner Wishes The Yankees Wouldn't Spend So Much Money
The Yankees are up to their old tricks, putting together a championship-caliber club with a combination of a stocked prospect pool and deep, deep pockets. Thanks to the former, they’re reportedly on the verge of trading for starter Gerritt Cole, and thanks to the latter, Giancarlo Stanton is now in ...
Ottawa Senators Radio Announcers Casually Discuss Grindr In Middle Of Game
I don’t have much to add to this. Tonight Ottawa shut out Montreal 3-0 in a centennial celebration game played outdoors in what looked to me like horrifically cold weather at Ottawa’s football stadium, but despite all the pomp and circumstance of the event Senators radio announcers Dean Brown and Go...
