J.R. Smith Airballs A Free Throw, Crashes A Children's Basketball Game
Knicks guard J.R. Smith is a career 74 percent free-throw shooter, and his nickname is "J.R. Swish."

Boxing's Great White Hope Problem; Or, Why The Fuck Was Mike Lee In A Super Bowl Commercial?
During last night's Super Bowl, one professional boxer appeared in a commercial. It was not Floyd Mayweather, and it was not Manny Pacquiao, though they are the two highest-earning athletes in all of sports. It was not any champion of any weight division at all. It was Mike Lee, a mediocre light hea...

This Is More Or Less What Happened To The Ravens In The Third Quarter
Here's how the Ravens played in the third: A long Jacoby Jones touchdown return—bad news for the 49ers, obviously—a 34-minute power outage, punt, punt, Haloti Ngata knee sprain (which has him doubtful to return), fumble, Jacoby Jones getting enormously jacked up by Delanie Walker on a kick return. ...

WSU Football Player Arrested After "Shoving Two Bottles Of Tequila Down His Pants" In A Daring Robbery Attempt
Washington State redshirt freshman Drew Loftus had a plan. He was "exhibiting signs of intoxication," so it was one of those plans, but it was still a plan: He would bide his time during the evening. Maybe have a couple extra drinks, to take the edge off. Wait until about 1 a.m—just when they least...

The Caltech men's baseball team got back to business yesterday.
