How To Survive A Long-Distance Relationship
I'm sorry we're here. Or rather, I'm sorry that the Love of Your Life is way, way far out over there. It's not easy being in a long-distance relationship. Trust me. While absence makes the heart grow fonder or whatever, that absence is also exhausting, depressing, and can drive you crazy. You may fi...

Hulk Can Score Rocket Goals With Either Foot
Hulk hammered home a long-range rocket today against PSV in Europa League action, and while we've featured plenty of the Zenit St. Petersburg striker's heroics around here, we'd like to note that today's feat came off his right, and supposedly weaker, foot. ...

The Penguins And Capitals Had Themselves A Nice Little Bench Brawl
The Penguins and Capitals were feeling a bit feisty last night, so much so that they decided have a scrap right on the Penguins' bench. I'm not sure if this qualifies as a true line brawl, but it's still pretty crazy....

Straight To The Hole Like My Man Malik Sealy
Monk One has long been one of my favorite DJ's. I've never met him but have been aware of his dope mixes since the late '90s when my pal Jared Boxx hipped me to his work. When I proposed to my wife, I had Monk's dub of this Archie Whitewater classic playing:...

Watch The Police Video From After Rob Konrad Was Found
Andy Slater of 940 WINZ radio in South Florida published a copy of the police video from shortly after former NFLer Rob Konrad was found by Palm Beach police, claiming to have swum to shore after falling off his boat. The video doesn't show much; by the time the police cruiser pulls up, Konrad alr...

Here Are Some Cool Derrick Rose Dunks
Given today's news and the way he was playing this season, it's kind of hard to believe that this version of Derrick Rose ever existed at all, let alone just four seasons ago. That third dunk remains one of the most absurd things I've ever seen in a basketball game....

Eric Lindros Sues NHL Ref Who Told Story About Him Being A Huge Dickhead
Last July, former NHL referee Paul Stewart wrote a column for Huffington Post which included a story about then-Flyers rookie Eric Lindros being an asshole to Stewart. Lindros is now suing Stewart and the Huffington Post for defamation....

Once-Homeless RB Says He's Ineligible For Not Wanting To Be Homeless [Update]
Baylor running back Silas Nacita became a fan favorite last season when he earned a walk-on roster spot with the Bears after spending a year at community college.

That Time Someone Said Peyton Hillis Wanted To Retire And Join The CIA
Today, the New York Giants released Madden 12 cover athlete—good job, fans—and running back Peyton Hillis. Did you even know Hillis was still in the league? A better question: Do you remember when a rumor came out in March 2012 that Hillis, at that time a free agent, was considering retirement so he...

Patrick Kane Injured, Could Be Out A Long While
If you're a Chicago sports fan, you are not reading this, because there's no way you're getting out of bed today.

Travis Kelce Loses Rodeo Dance Contest To Fan Nicknamed "Skim Milk"
Okay, let's get one thing out of the way here: Travis Kelce got jobbed by whoever was responsible for picking his song. You can't ask a showman like Kelce to participate in a dance contest and then hit him with "It's Not Unusual." Having said all that, even if the DJ had dropped "Booty Work" or "Dro...

Uh, Guys? I Think The Wizards Forgot To Fire Randy Wittman?
Coming into Sunday's game in Detroit, the Washington Wizards had lost two straight and 9 of 13, a month-long stretch of almost uniformly horrendous basketball in which they've fallen from second to fifth in the East. After the 38-point beating they took from the Cavs at home this past Friday, even t...

Andrew Wiggins Shows James Harden What Real Defense Looks Like
James Harden must have been feeling pretty cocky after turning Ricky Rubio's ankles into cornmeal, because he tried to pull the same shit on Andrew Wiggins just a few minutes later. Unfortunately for Harden, Wiggins looked at all those fancy crossovers and said, "Hi, um, I'm not Ricky Rubio."...

RIP Ricky Rubio
Last seen alive in the Toyota Center, Timberwolves point guard Ricky Rubio was killed Monday night by a suspected James Harden crossover. Rubio was 24....

Girls HS Basketball Teams Booted From Postseason For Playing To Lose
When the Riverdale High School and Smyrna High School (Tenn.) girls basketball teams met in the District 7-AAA consolation game Saturday night, facing them were a perverse set of incentives.

Soccer Fans Resist Urge To Be Hateful Assholes For Once
Soccer fans are, almost without exception, horrible people. So you can imagine our surprise, if also our reluctance to truly trust, the behavior of these Stuttgart fans, who consoled poor little Timo Baumgartl after a huge mistake lead to an easy goal to all but seal their defeat....
