Kari Lehtonen Hits Fan In Face With Puck, Gives Him Towel To Clean Up The Blood That Is Promptly Stolen By Another Fan
Hockey fandom is a dangerous game, folks. If you're not taking pucks to the face then you're being ripped off by your fellow fans after taking a puck to the face.

Clipper Darrell Is Back, So We All Can Return To Aggressively Not Caring About Him
The Clippers were jerks. Clipper Darrell was a jerk. There were tears.

We're all dumber for having lived this. [ESPNLosAngeles]...

Here Are Some Angry Letters People Sent To The FCC After M.I.A. Flipped Off The Super Bowl
Maybe this doesn't need to be said, but normal people don't complain to the FCC.

Watch This Fan Spit All Over His Hand, Then High Five Jeremy Lin And Other Knicks
The Knicks were in Chicago last night to play the Bulls. Both teams acquitted themselves well. The same can't be said for at least one of the fans at the United Center. That would be the soon-to-be-identified little bastard in this video. The video quality is crappy, but it looks like the bastard ...
