Michal Neuvirth Makes Miraculous, Impossible To Believe Game-Winning Save
When Charlie Coyle unleashed a potential game-tying shot with just three second left, everybody on the Minnesota Wild was convinced it had gone in. Just look at them all raise their sticks in unison. I mean, how could that shot have possibly not gone in?...

Dexter Fowler's Agent Rips Into The Orioles And The Baseball Media
Dexter Fowler re-signed with the Chicago Cubs on a one-year deal, with a mutual option for a second, earlier today. That was a bit surprising, because just two days ago it was widely reported that he’d agreed to a three-year deal with the Baltimore Orioles. ...

The Opt-Out Wins Again
About this time yesterday, it looked like free-agent outfielder Dexter Fowler was going to be a Baltimore Oriole:...

High School Students Storm Court, Attack Mascot To Defend Other Mascot's Honor
The rivalry between two Idaho high schools required police to step in when Madison High School students shoved Highland High School’s mascot to the floor at a boys basketball game in Rexburg Tuesday night....

Every NYC Romantic Comedy Is Full Of Shit In The Exact Same Way
Our first mistake was going to see this thing when we did. A friend and I stumbled into a showing of How to Be Single after a few glasses of wine a few days after it hit theaters—the same weekend Deadpool opened. Our theater is a small one a few blocks away from my apartment in Williamsburg, Brookly...


Hahaha, What The Hell Kind Of Ingenious Rainbow Goal Is This?
This goal, scored by Ranger’s striker Kenny Miller, is crazy. The ball’s trajectory is less a dipping curler and more a meteor falling out of the sky and somehow landing in the side netting. It’s a curve you’d learn to plot in high school math class with your graphing calculator come to life. The go...

Welcome To The Lance Stephenson Experience
The trade-deadline acquisition of Lance Stephenson represented a wager by the Grizzlies that he was misused and underused, that they would be the ones to figure out how best to deploy him effectively, something no one’s been able to figure out since the Pacers. ...

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....

Nate Diaz Accuses Conor McGregor Of Steroid Use At Impressively Ludicrous Press Conference
It’s late February and not much is going on in sports, so the press conference the UFC held today to promote Conor McGregor’s upcoming fight against Nate Diaz was the most entertaining happening of the day largely by default. Even so, it was really something, every bit as dumb as could be hoped....

Jim Harbaugh Gives Kirby Smart The "I Don't Even Know Your Name, Bro" Treatment
Who’s in the mood for a fresh college football coaching beef? Shut up, there’s nothing else going on....

Lawsuit: Cole Hamels Paid Agency $70K For Victoria's Secret Fashion Show VIP Tickets, Got Nothing
Texas Rangers pitcher Cole Hamels has sued an entertainment agency, and accused it of taking his money and not getting him VIP access to the 2015 Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show in return....

This Full-Court Chest-Pass Buzzer-Beater Is Incredible
I can’t think of another shot quite like Josh Henderson’s 70-foot buzzer-beater at the end of the first half of Vanderbilt’s 87-74 win over Florida. The low angle of the damn thing makes it nearly impossible, like an inch off in any direction would have sent it careening into the stands. It’s like a...

Skins Confirm RGIII Is Done In Washington
In the least surprising NFL news since the league’s nine-figure “accounting error,” the Skins’ team president made it more or less official: Robert Griffin III’s tumultuous four-year stay in Washington is at an end....

Clint Dempsey Bends Long-Range Free Kick Perfectly Into The Top Corner
Clint Dempsey opened the scoring in Tuesday’s CONCACAF Champions League quarterfinal between the Seattle Sounders and Mexico’s Club América with this prodigious free kick:...

Aaron Gordon Is A Nasty In-Game Dunker Too
If the first time you really noticed Aaron Gordon was when he was jumping over a dragon on a hoverboard during the dunk contest, that’s okay! The Orlando Magic aren’t very good, and Gordon hasn’t quite managed to consistently put together his elite potential (though he’s close). The important thing ...

Report: Jae’Sean Tate Re-Aggravated Shoulder Injury While Slapping The Court
Late in the second half of Saturday’s 65-62 victory over Nebraska, Ohio State wing Jae’Sean Tate tried to amp everybody up by repeatedly slapping the court. Unfortunately for him, this resulted Tai Webster blowing by him. And now, to add injury to insult, the floor slapping might’ve cost him his sea...

Evan Mathis Goes In On Chip Kelly
Will I ever get tired of former Eagles players talking shit about Chip Kelly? No, I don’t think I will....

Kyrie Irving Says He Got Bed Bugs At A Supposedly Haunted Oklahoma City Hotel
In the course of beating the Oklahoma City Thunder last night, the Cleveland Cavaliers stayed at the Skirvin Hilton, a hotel supposedly haunted by a maid who committed suicide decades ago. But the slamming doors and bathtubs mysteriously filled with water that have plagued other NBA teams were the l...
