Swiss Hockey Player Won't Be Disciplined For Hit That Paralyzed Opponent
It's still disturbing to watch Ronny Keller go head-first into the boards, knowing he remains a paraplegic three weeks after the incident in a second-tier Swiss playoff game. But it's good and right that Stefan Schnyder, the player whose hit sent Keller flying, won't face a suspension, let alone cri...

ESPN Goes Live To FGCU Pep Rally Just In Time To Catch An Extended "FUCK-THE-GATORS" Chant [UPDATE]
We told you earlier today why Florida Gulf Coast is the NCAA tournament's most entertaining team, but it seems the student body has a few tricks up its sleeve, too. Here they are reacting to coach Andy Enfield's mention of the Eagles' Sweet 16 opponent, Florida, with a lovely and profane chant. ...
Hey Look, Some Hockey Parents Decided To Beat The Shit Out Of Each Other
When we last took a dip into the world of rage-y hockey parents, we saw a guy cheer the injury of a child before making violent threats toward another spectator, all while holding an infant in his arms. Today, we get to watch an entire group of angry hockey parents (dads and moms!) lose all sense o...

Fan Rushes Onto Court During Heat-Cavs Game, Shakes LeBron's Hand
A weird night in Cleveland (delayed start due to condensation followed by the Cavs jumping out to a 20-point lead on Miami) got stranger when a fan rushed onto the court and managed to shake LeBron James's hand....
Picking Your Nose On Television Is Not A Violation Of BYU's Honor Code
Hot on the heels of a fervent nationally-broadcast nosepicker, a BYU fan is running with the nostril-spelunking baton. Last night's NIT bout in Provo between the Cougars and Washington turned out to be a snoozer, but even early on this gentleman was more interested in his own sneezer....

"They Went For An Older Pope, OK": Mike Francesa Gave The Greatest Running Commentary On The New Pope
There are several Mike Francesa-on-the-pope videos floating around right now, but we highly suggest this one, courtesy of WFAN Audio. It's 15 minutes, yes, but it's well worth the listen....

Wyoming Fans Chanted "Alcoholic!" At A Coach Who's A Recovering Alcoholic
File this one next to Duke fans (maybe) chanting "How's your grandma?" at a player whose grandmother had recently died. Next month, Colorado State basketball coach Larry Eustachy will have been sober for 10 years. It's also been 10 years since Eustachy was infamously photographed drinking with stude...
Swiss Hockey Player Paralyzed After Hit, Criminal Charges Could Follow
Horrible news of out Switzerland, after a brutal hit during a playoff game in the second-tier Nationalliga B left defenseman Ronny Keller paralyzed. Via Puck Daddy, the 33-year-old Keller was checked from behind by Stefan Schnyder, sending him into the board head-first. This is exactly what the NH...
To Go With An Injury And A Loss, A Fan Stole Kobe Bryant's Towel
Not the best night for Kobe. After briefly leaving the game in the first with an ulnar nerve contusion (that's a bruised funny bone, and you don't need to be an athlete to know how obscenely painful it can be), and then seeing the Thunder shrug off an attempted comeback, Bryant had a towel pilfere...
It Takes A Space Cadet To Be An Aston Villa Supporter These Days
These are dark days at Villa Park. The Claret and Blue helped found the Premiership 20 years ago, but find themselves in danger of being relegated for the first time unless they can climb out of the EPL basement. Facing the defending champs is never going to inspire much confidence, though, and whi...
