This Is Probably The Worst Beer In The World
From 1973 until 2011, Carlsberg Lager marketed itself as "Probably the best beer in the world." That bald-assed lie made it the shame of Copenhagen, and it led all discerning citizens of the beer-drinking world to question if any Dane could ever be trusted under any circumstance. Of course, sales ...
Gio Gonzalez Successfully Plays The Meow Game During Interview
At some point, professional athletes recreating a scene from a stoner comedy that came out 14 years ago is going to get old, but I don't think we've hit that marker just yet. So it's okay to laugh at Washington Nationals pitcher Gio Gonzalez, following in former Falcons safety Thomas DeCoud's foot...

This Fake Rugby Pass Is Outrageous
This is such a sick ball fake by Rangi Chase of the Salford Red Devils. He actually tosses the ball a little bit with his right hand before grabbing it with his left and continuing to run. The fake is sold so completely you can see both defenders break down into a tackling stance. I need to watch mo...
