The Time A One-Armed Baseball Team Took On A One-Legged Baseball Team
Back in olden times, novelty barnstorming baseball teams were all the rage.

Players' Tribune Boss Says Tiger Woods Isn't Being Defensive, <em>You</em> Are
Last week, we and many other people made fun of Tiger Woods for revealing himself to be a hollow replicant by "writing" what he imagined to be a scathing takedown of Dan Jenkins's satirical and clearly fake interview with Woods.
