Draymond Green Blasts Reporter Who Asks Bizarre Question About Houston Floods
This is a very strange moment from Draymond Green’s postgame press conference following yesterday’s 121-94 victory over the Rockets. The reporter seems to be asking Green about similarities between this series—where the Rockets won Game 3 as Houston was still dealing with a major flood, but got blow...
The Silicon Valley Guys Who Turned Around The Warriors Don't Believe In Their Ridiculous Luck
Friday night, in the third quarter of a home game against the Boston Celtics, Steph Curry started throwing up threes with no more trouble than a drunk trying to fall onto a sofa. Six for six he was, the kind of eruption that literally changes the dimensions of the game: He buried one trey from just ...
PSA: You Might Want To Return Any Outstanding VHS Rentals
Of course, it’s unclear exactly how you would return them, considering all but 50 Blockbusters nationwide closed in 2013 (and most independent video stores probably folded long before then). But apparently, holding on to a rented video long after the return date—let’s be honest, long after you even ...
Aaron Rodgers Has A Pretty Good UFO Story
Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers was a recent guest on the You Made It Weird podcast with Pete Holmes, and he somehow ended up describing the time he apparently saw an alien spacecraft in the night sky over New Jersey....
Draymond Green Interview Derailed By Reporter In Michigan Shirt
Warriors forward Draymond Green spent four years at Michigan State, and ended his career there as only the third player in Spartans history to record 1,000 points and 1,000 rebounds. He’s very loyal to his alma mater, as demonstrated by the reaction he had to a reporter wearing a Michigan shirt:...
Radio Announcer Ejected From College Basketball Game For Vigorous Gesturing
On Monday the University of Wisconsin-Green Bay knocked off Valparaiso 99-92 in overtime to advance to the final of the Horizon League tournament. (They beat Wright State tonight, so they’ll be dancing.) Even more astonishing than Valparaiso’s full-court pass to send the game to overtime was the fac...
Utica Greens Are The Dopest Meal You Can Make With "Greens" In The Name
We do this thing in my house where we arbitrarily shoehorn green things into the family diet, generally in quantities insufficient for any real nutritional purpose. Most often, this takes the form of a small bowl of sad lettuce splashed with cheap balsamic and presented as some sort of pre-dinner ha...
Draymond Green Proves That Steals Can Be Highlights
Draymond Green had a big game last night, helping the Steph Curry-less Warriors scratch out an overtime win against the Hawks. He swelled the box score as usual, finishing with 15 points, 13 rebounds, 9 assists and four steals. He also hit an absurd shot in the final minute of OT to help put the gam...
ESPN Halftime Show Issues Lead To Angry Rece Davis: "That's Not Acceptable!"
ESPN’s halftime show during today’s North Carolina-Virginia game didn’t go off very smoothly, as revealed by off-air footage we’ve acquired. An issue with highlight footage led to host Rece Davis angrily stating to the production team “Hey guys? That’s not acceptable! It’s not acceptable, OK!?”...
"WE BE CHAMPIONSHIP": Draymond Green's Mother Pens Open Letter To Warriors Haters
The Warriors are probably going to win at least 70 games, and are currently on pace to eclipse Michael Jordan’s 1996 Bulls and win 73. They’re good and fun and they’re killing everyone, but even they’ve drawn some haters. Draymond Green’s mother wrote an open letter to those haters. Hey, Oscar Rober...
Steph Curry Bails Draymond Green, And The Warriors, Out
The 1995-96 Chicago Bulls’ 72 wins are so impressive because it is very easy for the nightly grind of the NBA to trip teams up. Sure, injuries can easily cause losses, but so can scheduling quirks, off nights, opposing stars going off, or a million other things....
Danny Green Gets Deked By Chris Paul <i>And</i> Dunked On By DeAndre Jordan In One Play
The Spurs lost to the Clippers last night in L.A., 105-86. In typically passive-aggressive Spurs fashion they managed to deflate the game before it happened, holding out Kawhi Leonard with “calf tightness,” so who the hell knows what the result means. Probably nothing. That probably does not make Da...
Fan Goes In To Hug Fellow Fan, Dabs Right In Her Face
A fan at a UNC Greensboro men’s basketball game used his time on the Hug Cam to pull off a wonderful trick. He started to embrace the woman sitting next to him, and at the last second, dabbed on her. Keep your head on a swivel....
Kevin Hart Accidentally Tied Draymond Green In A Three-Point Competition
Tonight’s gag three-point competition between the Warriors’ Draymond Green and actor Kevin Hart was supposed to end with Green crushing Hart, taking home a giant trophy while his non-athlete opponent went home with a participation ribbon. What nobody planned on was Hart actually beating tying Green—...
It Sure Looks Like Draymond Green Got A Ref To Admit He Made A Bad Call
Warriors forward Draymond Green fell a bit short of his standard triple-double output against the Rockets last night, but he appeared to accomplish a rare NBA feat after having a clean block erased by a bad foul call....
Bill Self Calls Out His Player For "Dick Move": A Dunk At The End Of The Game
Before he took questions in his postgame press conference following Kansas’s 77-59 win over Kansas State, Jayhawks coach Bill Self delivered a statement, and an apology to his opponents (watch it here):...
Man, Vince Lombardi Really Dumped On The AFL After The First Super Bowl
One of those historic sports things I understand but don’t really get is the state of football leading up to the NFL-AFL merger. It was the first of the three big sports mergers over the next decade, and it’s absolutely alien to me: I’ve never lived through a successful competitor to a Big Four spor...
What Should We Call Draymond Green's Perfect Triple-Doubles?
The triple-double has always been more of a fun box-score artifact than a meaningful statistic, but Draymond Green has been gilding lilies that deserve special recognition....
Draymond Green Gets It
Draymond Green and the Warriors lost by -3 in Philadelphia to those guys who are always hogging the court down at your local Y. The Warriors clinched the narrow loss with a Harrison Barnes three, from a great pass out of the middle from Green. However, they really shouldn’t have let it get that clos...
