Syracuse Punter Hurdles LSU Defender On Fake Field Goal

Syracuse punter Riley Dixon leapt over an LSU defender for a first down late in the first half as the Orange attempted to take a shocking lead over LSU with a fake field goal:...

Jose Bautista Has A Goddamn Cannon Attached To His Shoulder

Jose Bautista spent a month earlier this season playing DH because his shoulder hurt so badly that he couldn’t throw. After tonight, it’s safe to say Bautista is fully recovered....

Eagles' Nolan Carroll Tackled An Idiot On The Field

Some drunk asshole ran onto the field during yesterday’s Eagles loss to Dallas. Philly CB Nolan Carroll took him down. The video from NBC DFW photojournalist Noah Bullard:...

WWE Invaded By Yet Another Idiot On The Field [UPDATE]

Dumbasses trying to make scripted grappling “real to them” have increased their attempts to invade the pro wrestling ring, and one such Idiot made it in as a pretend secret guest on tonight’s WWE pay-per-view (the real secret: Chris Jericho). His reward? The usual: getting sacked by WWE security....

Here's Will Ferrell's At-Bat In <i>Ferrell Takes The Field</i>, Which Was A Drag Otherwise

Spoiler Alert: They don’t really let Will Ferrell pitch in Ferrell Takes the Field, his stunt HBO doc where he plays every position (plus designated hitter) for 10 different MLB teams during one day of 2015 spring training action in Arizona. No, in his 90-second stint with the Dodgers, he throws one...

Notre Dame Scores Touchdown On Extremely Well-Designed Fake Field Goal

Everything about this fake field goal is great. From the fake overhead pitch that froze a potential pursuer to the blocker pulling from the right side of the line to engage the one defender who could possibly stop Durham Smythe, everything went to perfection for Notre Dame. ...

Irony Is Dead: Bakersfield Condors Unveil Oil-Themed Mascot

Condors are majestic creatures. The California Condor, which historically ranged across the West Coast and Southwest (and even to Florida way back in the day), is the largest land bird in North America. In the late 1980s the California Condor went extinct in the wild, due to poaching and various typ...

An Idiot Invaded <i>WWE Raw</i> Tonight

It’s a miracle, given the proximity to and fanatical attitudes of fans at live wrestling events, that Idiots On The Field don’t turn up more often. But it happened tonight in Baltimore, as someone invaded the set and actually managed to hang around a bit during Seth Rollins’s ring entrance on WWE Ra...

Skins Ban Non-Season Ticket Holders From Using Will Call

I was actively hoping I wouldn’t be writing about Washington’s football team again tonight, but they seem to be unable to keep themselves out of the news. Which would be an admirable trait, if it were ever for something positive. ...

Holy Shit, Usain Bolt

Over the last couple of years, there’s been no reason to think Usain Bolt could be as dominant in Rio as he was in Beijing or London. He’ll turn 30 during those games, for one. For another, he sat out many of the big races since 2013, and lost a lot of time to nagging hamstring troubles last year. T...

Keeper Gets Red Card For Snatching Up, Throwing Out Idiot On The Field

You’d think the ref would have more respect for this fed up keeper who hunts down a pitch invader, grabs him by the back of the shirt, and marches him off the field like a put-upon teacher escorting an unruly student to the principal’s office, but instead of thanks, Mohamed Sokhra only received a re...

Usain Bolt Is Back

Usain Bolt has always been talked about like he’s an elemental being, an athlete not bound to the laws of nature. When he set the world record in the 100 meters for the first time in Beijing, he visibly slowed and celebrated as he crossed the line, costing himself at least 0.1 seconds. He then set a...

Holy Shit, Marco Matias

This goal’s unreal. Sheffield Wednesday forward Marco Matias performs some kind of telekinesis to score a massive goal in today’s match against Leeds United in the Championship, and we’re confident that if a better highlight happens today it’ll have to be a real dick-shitter....

Look At This Dumb Dog That Thinks It Can Play Soccer

Newsflash, buddy: you aren’t people. And soccer’s for people, not dogs....

Reds' Jason Bourgeois Forgets Infield Fly Rule, Strolls Into Double Play

I’ve got nothing but sympathy for Cincinnati outfielder Jason Bourgeois, who killed a potential Reds rally by needlessly breaking for home when he could have stayed safely at third. I know the infield fly rule by heart—and I’d bet Borgeoius does too—but it’s invoked so infrequently, and clashes so s...

Wrigley Field Evacuated Due To Reported Bomb Threat [UPDATING]

Journalists finishing up work after today’s Giants-Cubs game at Wrigley Field are reporting that police are clearing the stadium due to a bomb threat....

The Skins have removed thousands of seats from FedEx Field and replaced them with this big colorful snake thing. ...
