The NCAA Tournament, As Narrated By Weird Tweets That Got Past Its Filters And Appeared On The Bottom Of The Screen
Tweets stream below March Madness Live online in something called the Coke Zero Social Arena. Apparently, all you need to get into the Coke Zero Social Arena is a hashtag.

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]...

It's not clear why this guy wore his anti-LeBron shirt to a 76ers-Bulls game in Chicago, but he really wanted to make sure WGN viewers got to see it for themselves. Maybe it's the only green article of clothing he owns, and he didn't want any strangers pinching him. [WGN]...
Polish U8 Soccer Match Abandoned After Fans Light Flares, Generally Go Nuts
Poland has a history of fans disrupting youth soccer games, for what we suspect are shits and giggles. Here's another one—undated, with no details, but at one point a fan is shown with the flag of FC Wągrowiec (apparently distinct from third-tier side Nielba Wągrowiec)....
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.

Shaking The Basket Is Not The Best Way To Try To Distract A Free-Throw Shooter
Because people are going to notice, and they're going to stop the game, and they're going to tell you to cut it out. Just like what happened when a few Montana fans gave it a go during last night's Big Sky final against Weber State....

Sob City: Clipper Darrell Breaks Down During TV Interview
We're still not sure what side to take in the Clipper Darrell vs. the Clippers dispute.
