Stoke City Keeper Scores Goal Within First 15 Seconds
It took keeper Asmir Begović merely 15 seconds to score his first career goal when the cleared ball bounced over Southampton's Artur Boruc and in for an incredibly early 1-0 Stoke City lead. Begović's goal was the fifth ever by a keeper in EPL; the last instance was Tim Howard in 2012....
GOALIE FIGHT!
The Capitals took a 7-0 dump on the Flyers, but some measure of revenge (Momentum? Enforcement? What's this bullshit supposed to be about again?) was gained with a full line brawl in the third period. The highlight was Ray Emery skating the length of the ice to fight Braden Holtby, who wanted none o...

On A Miserable Shooting Night, Derrick Rose Hits The One That Counts
Other than the fact that he can't shoot, Derrick Rose looks great. He's running around the court like he didn't take an entire season off. His footwork and athleticism are impeccable. Yes, the 18 months of rust is obvious—Rose is shooting 29 percent over his first two games, and has turned the ball ...
How The Chiefs Stopped Sucking In One Offseason
Before Week 1, if you'd said that the Kansas City Chiefs would be undefeated halfway through the season, you'd have been chased up and down Blue Parkway by men with butterfly nets. Yet here we are, on the cusp of November, and the last undefeated team in the NFL plays at Arrowhead Stadium. How'd th...

Golden Tate's wave goodbye made him either a hero or a villain, according to People Who Have Strong Opinions On Things Like This. (Personal opinion: There aren't many things in sports that matter less than one player taunting another.) But it sounds like there's a chance that the NFL could crack dow...

San Diego State Baseball Team Plays Game In Halloween Costumes
This is a yearly tradition at San Diego State, and it's evidence that baseball games would get much higher ratings if they were always played by people in costume. I mean, what game wouldn't be improved by the inclusion of a shortstop wearing a giant cardboard box?...
