Here's How Blair Walsh's Missed Game-Winner Sounded On Vikings, Seahawks Radio Calls
Blair Walsh’s heartbreaking shank that ended Minnesota’s season lifted spirits in the Pacific Northwest just as it crushed those in the Land of A Ten Thousand Lakes. Here’s how his missed 27-yarder sounded on KFAN in the Twin Cities (above) and on KIRO in Seattle (below)....
This Is One Dedicated Idiot On The Field
Yesterday’s FA Cup match between Eastleigh and Bolton featured a pitch invader on a mission—one that, despite his obvious interference, didn’t manage to stop play. The referee gave the advantage, and the Idiot On The Field fell on his ass....
Doug Baldwin's Incredible Catch, In Extreme Slow Motion
Seahawks fans haven’t had much to cheer about offensively today, but Seattle’s Doug Baldwin gave his team a much-needed first down in the third quarter today with an Odell Beckham-tier one-handed grab in the sub-zero temperatures....
Eagles' Jason Peters Goes On Rant Against Bengals Lineman For Making All-Pro Team
Eagles lineman Jason Peters is never one to shy away from giving his opinion about something. A few weeks ago, he pulled himself from a loss to avoid risk of injury and was open about it. He’s at it again, this time in a series of now-deleted Instagram posts ranting about Bengals tackle Andrew Whitw...
ESPN Joins In Adrian Peterson Redemption Campaign; Ditka Says "I Never Had A Problem With This"
ESPN joined Sports Illustrated in the quest to redeem Adrian Peterson for beating his child today on NFL Countdown, with reporter Josina Anderson allowing the Vikings tailback the opportunity to whitewash the incident that found him indicted on felony child abuse charges without once challenging his...
Bill O'Brien Had No Choice
Yesterday, Brian Hoyer played one of the very worst games by an NFL quarterback in the playoffs that I’ve ever seen. He threw four picks, lost a fumble, and I counted at least two other throws that could easily have turned into interceptions. By some metrics, it was one of the worst such games of al...
DeMar DeRozan Dunked All Over The Sixers Last Night
The Raptors went down Pennsylvania way to take on a summer league team that’s somehow still playing into January. It was the fourth game of a mini road trip, but they took care of the anonymous group of Benjamin Franklin fans. Toronto is, for my money, the best of the morass of teams fighting for th...
Steph Curry Hit One Of The Most Disrespectful Shots I've Ever Seen
You want to know how much Steph Curry was feeling himself during the Warriors’ 128-116 victory over the Kings? After hoisting a wide open three late in the fourth quarter, Curry turned around 180 degrees, talked some shit to the Kings bench, and began running up the court, all before his shot ripped...
Martavis Bryant Buttcatch Vindicates League That Still Doesn't Know What A Catch Is
Martavis Bryant’s buttcatch is one of this season’s most spectacular plays, but we’ll forgive you if you missed it due to falling asleep or having any of a hundred better things to be doing at 10:15 on a Saturday night. This being the NFL, we fully expected officials to declare it incomplete. How ha...
Jeremy Maclin And J.J. Watt Both Leave Game With Injuries On The Same Play
J.J. Watt, who’d just spent a little bit on the sideline right before this play nursing a groin injury, had to stop his rush halfway through due to a flare up. Right after he went down, Chiefs lineman Eric Fisher got a cheap shot in on the neck of a defenseless Watt. Watt went into the locker room, ...
Alex Ovechkin Goes End-To-End To Score Spectacular Overtime Game-Winner
Alex Ovechkin lost his damn mind and went the entire length of the rink real fast to put one past Henrik Lundqvist and give the Capitals the 4-3 win in overtime....
Chiefs Open NFL Playoffs With 106-Yard Knile Davis Kickoff Return
The Houston Texans’ plan to leverage home field advantage and an at-times terrifying defense fell through when they allowed Kansas City’s Knile Davis to return the game’s opening kickoff 106 yards for a score. ESPN Deportes’s Álvaro Martín captured the shock almost as well as the vacuum-like sound o...
Maryland Breaks Wisconsin's Heart With Game-Winning Three
Wisconsin fought back at home against Maryland from a late eight-point deficit, only to lose at the last second. Down 60-52 with less than 1:30 left, Wisconsin hit a layup and a pair of threes to tie it at 60. But right after Bronson Koenig’s three, Melo Trimble calmly pulled up from well behind the...
Report: Uhh, The Eagles Are Interviewing Tom Coughlin
Tom Coughlin, the grumpiest Tom in the world, might be switching NFC East head coaching jobs. He stepped down as Giants coach last week, made Eli Manning cry, and dissed team president John Mara, all in one press conference. Now, according to Fox Sports’ Mike Garafolo, Coughlin is interviewing to mo...
This Off-The-Nose Dismissal Is One Of The Most Extraordinary Plays We've Seen In Any Sport
Yes, that headline is accurate. Today in Australia’s Big Bash League (which, true to its moniker, is getting a lot of attention in these parts recently) Melbourne Stars bowler Adam Zampa earned a dismissal after the Renegades’ Peter Nevill slapped a line drive that went off his teammate’s bat, then ...
Steph Curry Is At It Again
Portland actually filed their paperwork correctly and had C.J. McCollum around for last night’s game against the Warriors, but, yeah, no, Golden State rolled easily. That’s thoroughly unsurprising, but this cool little alley-oop from Steph Curry to Andrew Bogut kind of was....

Feds: Cardinals Guy Hacked The Astros By Using An Old Password [Updated]
Charges against former Cardinals scouting director Christopher Correa were unsealed today in federal court in Houston, finally outlining exactly how the best hacking in baseball happened, at least according to the feds. The information document was filed Dec. 22 but remained under seal until this af...
This Toronto Raptors Executive Had An Extremely Tight Wedding
I’m fully aware of the fact that rich people’s ridiculous weddings get written up in places like Vogue precisely because non-rich people will read sentences like, “Everyone gently retrieved their seat assignments from sphagnum moss falling from the boughs of a weeping cherry tree” and go, “Whaaaaaaa...
Chip Kelly Interviewed With The 49ers
According to separate reports from CSN Bay Area and ESPN, former Eagles coach Chip Kelly met with the 49ers yesterday about their own vacant head coach job. It feels like the perfect match, if you’re rooting for the franchise to implode....
