Out of the mouths of babes. ...
Report: Ryan Freel Had CTE When He Killed Himself
Nearly a year ago, former MLB player Ryan Freel committed suicide. The history of his concussions surfaced in the aftermath, and a report released earlier this week concluded that Freel was suffering from Stage II chronic traumatic encephalopathy...
Dolphins Facefumble Field Goal Attempt
Long snaps succeed at a much higher rate when the holder catches the ball with his hands, not his face. Pay close attention to punter Brandon Fields's facial seismic activity....
Browns Fan Vastly Improves Brandon Weeden Jersey
Is it as creative as the Trent Richardson alteration? No, but it's still solid. The fact that this dude bought a Brandon Weeden jersey in the first place is heartbreaking, though....
We're Going Streaking (Except When We're Not)!
It's been over three weeks since the run-at-least-a-mile-every-day streak began and I've been true (almost). It's an incredible nuisance. ...
Wichita News Anchor Is Ready To "Get The Fuck Out Of Here"
If we've learned anything about broadcasting, it's to always treat a nearby microphone like it's a hot mic. Wichita NBC affiliate KSNW could work on teaching its anchors this, because Justin Kraemer signed off to SNL last night with an f-bomb....
Guy Forgets <i>He's</i> Allowed To Use Hands, Takes Soccer Ball To The Face
Here's a delightful moment from the Queens Park Rangers visit to play Blackpool F.C. Some poor guy gets drilled in the dome with a misfired shot and, for some reason, keeps his hands at his sides the whole time. I think he even tries to kick it away from him, but he's not quick enough and it bounces...
Mark Scheifele's Shift Was Over Anyway
The rookie center for the Winnipeg Jets had some help getting off the ice, but none from his bench. Is this like in baseball when the rookie gets his first home run and no one congratulates him when he gets back in the dugout?...
The Rise Of Josh Gordon: The Browns' New Superstar Receiver
Buried, deep within the turd that is the 2013 Browns' offense, there is one bright, shining spot. (Do turds have bright spots? Whatever.) Josh Gordon, the only player taken in the second round of the 2012 supplemental draft, has become one of the best receivers in the NFL. ...
CBS Sports Promo Features Georgetown Fan Flipping The Bird
CBS ran this promo for a CBS Sports Network broadcast of Elon-Georgetown leading into the halftime show during Arizona-Michigan. As you can see, right there in the middle is a backwards-hatted Georgetown fan emphatically giving someone the two-for-Tuesday salute (and providing some lip-reading mat...
Never Let A Cop In Your House: The Will Graves Story
This story is so stupid, I feel bad making you read it, but it's a teachable moment. Former North Carolina guard, Will Graves, was cited last week for misdemeanor charges when cops searched his home and found eight marijuana seeds, three (!) blunts and two burnt blunts, all helpfully scare-quoted in...
MLB Investigates Yankees For Potential Tampering With Mike Trout
This seems like a whole lot of nothing, but we can stand behind anything to make baseball's silly season the sillier. Yesterday, Yankees president Randy Levine had this to say by way of explaining why the team was hesitant to give Robinson Cano too many years:...
Mike D'Antoni Throws Some Major Shade At Pau Gasol
The Lakers are hanging in there, but Pau Gasol, who was supposed to be a dependable and veteran presence in the general absence of either, has put up career-lows (or nearly so) in almost every category. Gasol says he's being used wrong. Mike D'Antoni says Pau's just dogging it....
No One Anywhere Is Haunted By Richie Sexson
Having purchased a Hall of Fame ballot, which we'll be filling out in accordance with the wishes of our readers, we're examining the merits—and relative lack of merits—of all 36 players on this year's ballot for the purposes of better informing the electorate, i.e., you. All entries in the series ca...
The PGA Tour's Non-Profit Status Is A Big Joke
Paula Lavigne of Outside The Lines has conducted a thorough investigation into the PGA Tour's status as a non-profit organization, and has found that the tour's commitment to charity is not nearly as strong as the suits at the PGA would like everyone to believe....
Report: Knicks Might Try Drafting In The First Round For Once
When the reports started coming down yesterday that the Knicks were seeking Kyle Lowry from the Raptors in exchange for a package including a 2018 first-rounder, it sounded eminently logical. Not in the "that's a smart move" sense, but in the "of course the Knicks are going to give up on a draft tha...
No, That Wasn't Gary Sheffield And Dave Stewart Fighting Over A Client
The best story to come out of baseball's winter meetings in Orlando was a fight in the parking lot on Wednesday, reportedly between two agents. It was reported by Yahoo's Jeff Passan, but without the detail we all wanted: Who were the agents?...
Ravens Rookie-Megatron Beef Is A Bit Of An Exaggeration
It's on now. Matt Elam, a rookie safety for the Ravens, was asked about covering Lions receiver Calvin Johnson in Monday's game and ended up talking shit about Megatron. Did he really?...
