Paul MacLean Was Haunted By A Doppelgänger Last Night
Ottawa smoked the Florida Panthers 4-0 last night, but the more entertaining portion of the game was the man behind the Senators' bench who bore a striking resemblance to Ottawa coach Paul MacLean. The amusing double-shots continued for much of the game, until something tragic happened: they ejecte...
Washington Wizards Approaching Double-Digit Wins Thanks To Jordan Crawford Buzzer Beater
Thanks to Jordan Crawford's last-second shot—that was reviewed and upheld—the Washington Wizards beat the Portland Trail Blazers 98-95. The Blazers got within one by the 2:21 mark in the fourth quarter and eventually tied the game with 3.6 seconds left but Washington would not be denied its ninth w...
This Stephen Curry Bounce Pass Is Just Vicious
Earlier today Stephen Curry executed what can objectively be described as a stunning play during the Golden State Warriors 106-99 defeat of the Los Angeles Clippers.

J.R. Smith Reminds Kris Humphries That Kanye West Is Now Kim Kardashian's Sperm Donor, Just In Case He Forgot
The Nets beat the Knicks 88-85 tonight, but we're not here for that. We're here to talk about Poor Kris Humphries. The guy can't even talk shit after a win without getting the whole fake-marriage-to-a-reality-show-fame-whore deal thrown in his face....
Lance Armstrong Street Art Is Simple, Accurate
This stencil of an IV-aided Lance Armstrong popped up in Los Angeles over the weekend. Armstrong, you'll recall, finally admitted the world's worst kept secret in a never-ending interview with Oprah last Thursday and days later the iconic rider-in-a-yellow-jersey imagery was given a shadowy and acc...
"You're Here For One Reason: To Fuck Us Good!": Let's Remember The Time Earl Weaver Completely Lost It On An Umpire
Hall of Fame manager Earl Weaver passed away last Friday, and that makes us very sad. What makes us very happy, however, is the video above, which features Weaver going absolutely crazy on a first base umpire who had just called a balk on the Orioles' pitcher....

New Orleans Welcomes The Super Bowl With A "Roger Goodell Being Eaten By A Giant Vagina" Float
The Krewe du Vieux is one of the first parades on the Carnival calendar, and surely the most explicit. The Times-Picayune says it "aims for eyebrow-raising, low-brow amusement and often hits the mark with its rude designs and naughty details." But topicality is important, and with Roger Goodell comi...

A Young Bruins Fan Found Something Questionable In His Food
As part of the Bruins' "sorry about the lockout" apology tour (and Jeremy Jacobs being personally responsible for making it so long and acrimonious), fans are getting free food. Lots of free food! For each of Boston's five home games in January, each fan gets three vouchers for food or non-alcohol...
Cop Out. <em>Broken City</em>, Reviewed.
When Mark Wahlberg is at his best, it doesn't look as if he's acting. In fact, it hardly seems as if he's even thinking. Watch him in The Departed or I Heart Huckabees and he comes across as a flawed regular guy who just wants to do the right thing, even though his characters aren't always the brigh...

The NFC Is Running Low On Pro Bowl Quarterbacks
Matt Ryan hurt his shoulder when he was pancaked to the turf by Ahmad Brooks with 1:55 remaining. It looked ugly, and Ryan got up slowly. It was his left, non-throwing shoulder, but his next two passes were incomplete. When Atlanta recovered the ball with time left for one play, Ryan's "hail mary" o...
Football Recruit Who Said His Notre Dame Visit "Went Great" Never Actually Visited Campus
Georgia high school running back Stanley Williams committed to UGA two summers ago, but he may be having second thoughts.

Anderson Varejao Is Out For The Season With A Blood Clot In His Lung
I'd express sympathy for Cleveland fans, but they're probably pretty used to this sort of thing by now. Anderson Varejao, who with averages of 14 and 14 was putting up the best year of his career, is done for the season. The Cavs announced today that Varejao developed a blood clot in his lung, becau...
Michael Phelps Wouldn't Have Competed In The 2012 Olympics If Not For Ray Lewis
OK, before we go any further, we have to address Michael Phelps's new look. Apparently, Phelps has been hanging out in a lot of coffee shops and going to a lot of Japandroids concerts since the summer Olympics. Or perhaps he's just a really big fan of that crazy guy who used to edit Gawker....
The Union Wants Bud Selig To Force The Marlins To Spend More Money
Here's the projected payroll for the 2013 Miami Marlins. After a fire sale that began with trading star shortstop Hanley Ramirez and ended with trading star shortstop Jose Reyes (and everyone else), this isn't a rebuilding year. It's austerity straight from Christine Lagarde's desk....
