The Bears Were less Offensively Inept Than The Rams, In One GIF
Chicago 23, St. Louis 6: If I knew how to make a GIF of myself falling asleep, I would have. The Rams managed to scoring zero touchdowns and the Chicago offense could only muster one. The rest were field goals and a defensive interception returned for a touchdown. Between the two quarterbacks, they ...
A Horrific Injury To The Hurricanes' Malcolm Lewis Prompted A Surprisingly Tender, Touching College Football Moment
Sometimes the worst injuries don't result in any broken bones. That was certainly the case yesterday, when early in the Hurricanes' game against Georgia Tech Miami receiver Malcolm Lewis fell victim to a twisting tackle that left his foot turned 180 degrees in the wrong direction....
NFLPA Executive Committee Absolutely Kills NFL Owners And Roger Goodell For Locking Out Officials
The NFLPA released a letter this morning in which they slam the league, and in particular Roger Goodell, for locking out the referees....
Juninho's Golazo Is Yet Another Reminder We're Lucky To Have Him In MLS
L.A. Galaxy are on a dominant streak at the moment, unbeaten in the last eight matches and out to a 3-1 lead over Toronto halfway through tonight's bout at Home Depot Center. Juninho's spectacular goals have made him a new threat in an already-packed lineup, and he made his presence known with two...
Beer of the Week: Double D Blonde
Once we get past the name of Double D Blonde, the wheaty, quick-drinking blonde ale out of Oregon's Hop Valley Brewing Company, you can appreciate it as a hoppy little number that won't offend you, won't overwhelm you. It's lager-golden and keg-ready at 20 IBU and 4.9 percent abv. It has a sharp not...
Soccer Ref Gets Trucked At The Point Of Convergence Between Two Sliding Premier Leaguers
This is from today's Premier League game between Fulham FC and Wigan. Fulham won, the ref, Lee Probert, jokingly gave himself and red card, and Metro called it "the most exciting thing to happen in the opening 15 minutes of the match." Flopper....
Julian Dalrymple, The "Jackass" Whose Blowjob Faces Behind Wrigley Field's Home Plate Went Viral, Is Here To Take Your Questions
We didn't quite expect this video to become an Internet sensation when we posted it earlier this week, but goodness gracious do people love pantomimed blowjobs. At the time we called culprit Julian Dalrymple a "jackass," though it turns out he's actually a pretty nice guy who has a penchant for at...
Dale Sveum Doesn't Even Have The Heart To Be Mad At His Players For Not Paying Attention
This is life as a Cubs manager. There are 25 people (40 in September!) whose only goal in life seems to be to give you agita. They do bad baseball things, but even worse they do dumb baseball things, and after a while it just becomes too much to take and you have to check out. There's no way to stay...
The White Sox Hope To Sleep Their Way To Success
They're in the midst of 20 games in 20 days, so the White Sox want their players to get some rest and when and where they can as they chase the AL Central title. Per CSN Chicago, that means manager Robin Ventura will be giving some players days off. But it also means they want guys to take naps:...
Jay Cutler's Baby Still Learning How To Sulk
I was browsing People's celebrity baby blog, and came upon this: the first photo of young Camden Jack Cutler. Camden's got quite the lifetime ahead, considering his parents are a vapid dullard who somehow keeps finding a way to get on television yet remains forever eluded by success, and Kristin Cav...
Oscar Put Chelsea Up 2-0 On Juventus With One Of The Most Marvelous Goals You'll See From Anyone, Anywhere
Chelsea won a massive bidding war for 21-year-old Brazilian star Oscar this summer, luring the midfielder away from Internacional for £25 million. It's proving to be a smart purchase, as his two early goals have put the Blues up 2-1 at the half on Juventus in their UEFA Champions League bout today ...
Is A Quota The Answer For Reining In Hockey Fights?
Fighting! Few serious fans of hockey think it doesn't have a place in the sport. But then, no serious fans think this bullshit belongs either. How, then, to separate the meaningful fighting for legitimate purposes—enforcement, deterrence, stimulation—from fighting for fighting's sake? The OHL has an...
NBC Decides The Cubs Probably Aren't Going To Win The World Series This Year
Two screenshots. On the left, an early press photo for NBC's new show Revolution, set in a post-apocalyptic 2027, as the characters walk pass a Wrigley Field claimed by the ivy. On the right, the same picture, taken from the show's actual broadcast last night. The "2012 World Series Champions" sign ...
Some Jackass Made Blowjob Pantomimes Behind Home Plate At Wrigley For Nearly An Inning Before Getting Ejected
Weather delayed last night's Pirates-Cubs bout at Wrigley Field for several hours, and by the end of the 3-0 Pittsburgh win there weren't many fans left in the stadium. There was, however, one guy who really wanted to get on TV making blowjob faces....
Everton Fans Would Be Happy To Take Some NFL Replacement Referees Off Our Hands
While two different goal-line technologies are approved for use by the world's top soccer organizations, neither are implemented in the English Premier League yet—the limeys electing to stick with the power of the human eye for the time being. That's unfortunate, because EPL assistant referees are ...
Jay Mariotti Is Maxin' And Relaxin' And Writing Shitty-Ass Columns Again
Look at that picture! Just look at it! That's a picture of Jay Mariotti, taken right after he polished off his second craft beer of the afternoon, no doubt, and right before he started talking about how he's always "really appreciated" Tom Waits, and that most people don't know that about him....
Is It Poor Form To Literally Rip A Home Run Ball Out Of Another Fan's Hand?
This is from Anthony Rizzo's first of two home runs yesterday (the Pirates' collapse continues apace). I want to draw your attention not to the play, but to the two gentlemen in center, struggling over that all-important baseball. Who has the moral high ground, and the right to the ball?...
This Is The Worst Own Goal Ever
It's from last week's Circiuma-America tilt in Brazil's second division. Circiuma keeper Michel Alves makes a pretty nifty save before getting overwhelmed by all sorts of derp. Only thing better might be the announcer's manufactured excitement....
The Scab Refs Still Suck, And Roger Goodell Is Still A Hypocritical Shitstain
On Aug. 31, just a week or so prior to the kickoff of the new season, NFL commissioner Roger Goodell sent out a "note" to the public that was essentially a press release, a reminder to you, the NFL viewing public, that the league was going balls-out on player safety:...
Chargers 38, Titans 10: The Game In A Solitary GIF
Yeah. Not a whole lot went right for the Titans. Uh, no fumbles! That's pretty cool, right? Whatever. Chris Johnson had eight carries for 17 yards and everything is pretty sad on the Tennessee side so let's just not talk about the actual game. Here's something else to talk about: The replacement re...
