Rob Gronkowski Plays "Fuck, Marry, Kill" For Rex Ryan, Betty White, And Tim Tebow
The Rob Gronkowski Magical Mystery Tour rolled into URI last night, and as with all university speakers, "Fuck, Marry, Kill" was played. Gronk's (partial) answer: "I would F Tebow, the kid(?), take his virginity." The bro near the camera finds it hilarious. [via Jimmy Traina]...

Baseball's Unwritten Rules, Uncovered After 26 Years
A few weeks ago, I found myself in Austin and happened upon one of these flea market-type warehouses. It's like a ginormous, impersonal yard sale: People come with their stuff, set it up in their little station, put a price tag on everything, and hope it eventually sells. As it turns out, one of the...
Martin Havlat Gave The Sharks A Game One Win With This Double-Overtime Goal
There's plenty of reasons the Stanley Cup playoffs are the best in sports, but the chance for extended, multiple-overtime games is certainly one of them. After Boston's physical 1-0 OT win over Washington, hockey fans were treated to two overtimes between San Jose and St. Louis, a game decided by...
The Unstoppable Frisbee Trick Shot Menace Has Finally Reached Quebec
Look, it's not the "greatest Frisbee catch in the history of Frisbee catches," but it is Frisbee trick shot expert Brodie Smith and some random people in Nordiques jerseys—OK, and one Maple Leafs fan—defy the laws of physics throughout the Colisée Pepsi, so there's that....
Bay Area Sports Radio Legend Fired For No Apparent Reason
Imagine if Mike Francesa just walked into WFAN one morning for work, ready to start his regular shift, and management hauled him into an office, told him he was being fired, gave him 100 pages of paperwork, and said he had minutes—not hours—to clean out his desk and leave. Twenty minutes after that,...

If You've Ever Had Drunken Love Go Horribly Awry, Please Send Us Your Stories
Maybe you drank too much and your willy wouldn't work. Maybe you were finally right there with that girl you've been eyeing from across the quad all semester, only to have your dipshit roommate barge in at precisely the wrong moment. Maybe you convinced her to go to your place, only to realize once ...
John Calipari Received The Key To The City, And The Plaque Has Typos In The Words "The" And "Its"
John Calipari and the NCAA championship trophy kicked off a whistlestop tour of the state today, and one of the first stops was in Pikeville, Ky., where Calipari received the key to the city. Perhaps the ceremonial plaque was whipped up hastily, but it sports a pair of typos. [Twitter]...

German Soccer Trolling Is The Best Trolling
In a match that may be the deciding factor in the German Bundesliga title race, Borussia Dortmund seized a 1-0 victory over Bayern Munich when keeper Roman Weidenfeller stopped Arjen Robben's penalty in the 82nd minute, leading to an extraordinary (and ballsy) act of trash-talking from Serbian de...

Jabar Gaffney Is Having A Twitter Meltdown Over His Soon-To-Be Ex-Wife And A Former Teammate Who's Also His Cousin [UPDATE]
We're not really sure what to make of what's been happening recently with the Twitter account of Redskins receiver Jabar Gaffney. So far as we can tell, Gaffney is none too happy with both free agent cornerback Lito Sheppard and his own wife, though it's not clear if one beef has anything to do with...
Remember When Gilbert Arenas And Javaris Crittenton Threatened To Shoot Each Other? JaVale McGee Started It.
Was it really more than two years ago that the Wizards locker room melted down in an orgy of simulated gunplay over a boo-ray debt? It was, and one of the principals—Gilbert Arenas, who allegedly brought four guns to the locker room and laid them out for Javaris Crittenton to choose—is finally shedd...
When Serious Actors Become Action Stars: A Guide
This Friday, Lockout opens, and beyond its prison-colony-in-space hook, probably the most interesting element to this sci-fi film is "Holy cow, is that Guy Pearce kickin' all that ass?" Why, yes, it is—and it's a conscious departure from the serious dramatic roles we usually see from him (Memento, L...

Josh Hamilton Launched His Bat Into The Stands, And A Fan Caught It On The Fly
It's the refrain of unimaginative baseball broadcasters whenever a fan makes a nice foul ball catch: "Sign that guy to a contract!" I'm not sure what the proper response is when a fan catches a bat that's been weaponized by the big swing and poor grip of Josh Hamilton, but if you were expecting t...
Report: Fired Penn State President Now Working On National Security Project
Graham Spanier was fired Nov. 9, in the wake of the Jerry Sandusky scandal.

JaVale McGee Sent Kevin Love To The Hospital With A Concussion
In a season of JaVale McGee doing awesome things—intentionally or unintentionally—his latest act is decidedly less so, as an inadvertent elbow decked Kevin Love and sent the Timberwolves star to the hospital with a concussion in the first quarter of last night's bout in Denver....
