Girls Basketball Players Suspended For Flashing Shocker In Team Picture
A few members of a high school girls basketball team from Farmington, Ill., thought it would be funny to slyly flash the shocker in their team picture. As you can see above, it was indeed funny, but the school administration didn't seem to think so, and the girls were suspended....

Cyclist Under Fire For Pinching A Podium Girl's Backside
Peter Sagan came in second in yesterday's Tour of Flanders, a one-day event that saw a thrilling duel come down to the last few miles. It's not Fabian Cancellara's victory that's making news today, though; it's Sagan's move to pinch the behind of a podium girl....

This Is Why Giving Gatorade Baths Indoors Is A Bad Idea
Not only did the Lady Knights fail to properly douse their coach in Gatorade after winning an NJCA district qualifying game, they placed him squarely atop a liquid death trap. At least they had enough sense to retreat from the puddle, unlike the would-be hero who comes dashing down from the bleache...

There's major controversy over an incident in a Boston girls' basketball playoff game, in which New Mission High School's star player was injured during the fourth quarter.

It's been a rough year for the Arlington Knights. The 3A girls basketball team from Indianapolis, Ind., is 0-5, averages 17 points per game, and has lost games by scores of 77-16 and 68-14.

"Fuck You Tennis! I'm Trying To Watch <em>How I Met Your Mother</em>." Twitter Responds To The Novak Djokovic-Andy Murray U.S. Open Classic
Last night Andy Murry and Novak Djokovic played a 4 hour, 54 minute match, tied for the longest U.S. Open men's final ever. It was a gem. CBS scheduled the Monday match in the 4 p.m. slot to ensure tennis wouldn't bump into its primetime lineup. That didn't work. The nearly unprecedented match stret...

Meet Timur Bekmambetov, The Loony Madman Behind <em>Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter</em>
Timur Bekmambetov, the director of Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter, might be insane. I don't mean that as an insult. The man behind Night Watch, Day Watch, and Wanted isn't interested in nuance or character or plot or basic human emotions. Watching his movies, you get the sense that he doesn't spend...

Sporty Spice Upset By Lack Of Spice Girls On Leaked Olympic Playlist
Mel C, more commonly known to those of us who grew up in the 90s as "Sporty Spice," is upset by designer Danny Boyle's decision to exclude the Spice Girls from his Olympic opening ceremony playlist.

Twins Fans Grasp Coprophilia-Based Humor Better Than Any Other MLB Fanbase
Francisco Liriano fell to 1-7 on the season as the Cubs rocked the Twins in Minneapolis Sunday.

Don't count the Tw...

Where In The World Was Chuck Knoblauch This Weekend?
When a story involving a visibly intoxicated Chuck Knoblauch hitting on women on a late-night Brooklyn subway ride surfaced yesterday, we were surprised and not surprised. Surprised because Knoblauch is about the most random former major leaguer imaginable—a good-to-very-good infielder who won four ...

"A Drunk Chuck Knoblauch Hit On Us On The G Train"
The G Train, after dark, on a weekend, is a place where magical things happen. You may never get to where you actually want to go, but you'll find yourself right where you need to be. Witness the tale of Erin, a young woman from Brooklyn, who just wanted to get home last night. What she never expect...

This Is Quite Possibly The Worst Ceremonial First Pitch Ever
This is Jessica Jung of the wildly popular (??) South Korean ensemble Girls' Generation. It's a nine member group with at least one "subunit." I did a lot of research for you guys....

Your '90s High School Movie Cast Power Rankings
American Reunion comes out today, and I'll confess to liking it a bit more than Grierson does. I agree that these characters aren't close to interesting enough to justify four movies, but I can't help but admire the simply, ingenious premise: Just turn it into a high school reunion. It's a bit baffl...

High School Girl Charged With Assault After Brutal Soccer Beatdown
Throw out the formalities when Lewisville and Chester get together, that's what I always say. The South Carolina schools met for a women's soccer match Monday evening, and it ended with the police being called. That New Mexico-BYU game has nothing on this one....
