For the first time in NBA All-Star Game history, players had a chance to vote on the game’s starters.

Steve Kerr Burned Sean Spicer
Before his team took on the Magic in Orlando yesterday afternoon, Warriors head coach Steve Kerr was introduced to the home crowd as a “former Orlando Magic star.” That was a curious way to describe Kerr, seeing as how he only ever played 47 games in Orlando, where he averaged 2.6 points per game. ...

Conference Investigating Wild, WWE-Style Brawl In DII Game<em></em>
Most basketbrawls get mopped up shortly after they start. Refs and coaches intervene before things boil over into a full-blown free-for-all and the perpetrators are quickly subdued.

That Time Bill Goldberg Tossed A Caddy Into A Water Hazard For Messing With Him
Bill Goldberg is not someone you want to put in a position to own you.
