Todd Gurley Styles All Over The Tennessee Defense
Tennessee did a respectable job of hanging with Georgia today, before succumbing in a 35-32 defeat. Bulldogs running back Todd Gurley, however, could hardly be contained.

We Now Go Live To Hunter Pence's Dirty, Dirty Mouth

<em>Destiny</em> Needs More Peter Dinklage, Less Of Everything Else
My beloved Oakland A's are shitting the bed. One minute they're the toast of baseball— with the game's best record, its highest run differential, its best pitching staff—and the next they look like the Washington Generals, playing well under .500 ball since the All-Star break and struggling now to...

Reports: San Francisco Giants Boycotting Long-Time Beat Reporter
Yesterday CSN Bay Area's Giants beat writer, Andrew Baggarly, reported that San Francisco Giants relief pitcher Sergio Romo and coach Shawon Dunston "exchanged heated words with raised voices, causing Bruce Bochy to emerge from his office to intervene."

Yesterday was the Flyers' first preseason game since the offeason announcement that its female, lightly dressed ice cleaners were being done away with, to be replaced with 12 dudes in orange jackets. Fans most definitely noticed the change:...
Music Video Made Of Madden GIFs Is Really Stupid And Funny
I don't know if it's just because it's the late afternoon and I'm feeling a little loopy, or if it's the unexpected presence of Evanescence—anyone knows what's good with Evanescence these days?—or the triumphant vibe of Geno Smith's spike, but this dumb video is making me laugh a lot. I hope it make...
Brian Hartline Flagged For Golfing Touchdown Celebration

Vince Wilfork Pinball Interception Locks Up New England Win
Oakland ended up in the end zone, but after a penalty wiped out what would have been a game-tying score the Raiders proceeded to turn the ball over in a way only the silver & black could achieve. Fat Man Interception!...
