Thomas Hill, Duke's Famous Weeper, Finally Confesses: I Wasn't Crying
"The misconception is that there are tears coming out of my eyes," Thomas Hill told me on Thursday. "There weren't." Hill is the former Duke guard who in 1992 became the happily crumpled face of the Blue Devils' last-second victory over Kentucky in the Elite Eight—maybe the face of March Madness its...
Real Madrid's Iker Casillas Wiped His Boogers On A Child's Face
Real Madrid's Champions League first leg against APOEL was three days ago, but video is only now emerging of the most exciting thing to happen in that mismatch: Real keeper Iker Casillas wiping his nose, then wiping his hand on the face of one of those kids who lead the players onto the pitch. Nev...
The "Bohemian Rhapsody" Dude Is An Unemployed Home Brewer Who Was Picked Up For DUI
The Smoking Gun has discovered the identity of that guy who fantastically belted out every word of "Bohemian Rhapsody" in the back of a cop car after his arrest. His name is Robert Wilkinson, he's 29, he's unemployed, he's a home brewer, and his unforgettable performance in the back of a Royal Canad...
High School Girl Charged With Assault After Brutal Soccer Beatdown
Throw out the formalities when Lewisville and Chester get together, that's what I always say. The South Carolina schools met for a women's soccer match Monday evening, and it ended with the police being called. That New Mexico-BYU game has nothing on this one....
Matt Hendricks Is: The Paralyzer
Washington's Matt Hendricks is a bruiser, not a scorer. But the Capitals forward has discovered a secret weapon that renders goalies powerless, and he's been dominating shootouts this month relying on that same move every time. Pump fake, goalie goes down, easy score....
Rock Climbing Is So Easy A 22-Month-Old Girl In A Diaper Can Do It
Her toys are strategically placed on the wall, and damnit if she doesn't glide right on up there to get to every one of them. It's incredibly cute, and rather amazing. The video stops before we get to see how she gets down, but she probably just shits herself....
High School Makes Fancy Video Asking Jeremy Lin To Speak At Graduation, Lin Says No Thanks
One of the main duties of New York's Stuyvesant High School's senior class president is to line up the commencement speaker. So, with the help of students and faculty, he put together this video begging Jeremy Lin to be that speaker. (Warning: there's rapping. Of course there's rapping.)...
Jerry Sandusky's Trial Has Been Postponed Until June 5
It was supposed to begin May 14, but Judge John M. Cleland has pushed the start of the trial back because of scheduling conflicts. Cleland's decision had nothing to do with that 95-page motion to dismiss the charges filed last week by Sandusky's attorney, Lawyerin' Joe Amendola....

<em>Slap Shot</em>: The Only Honest Sports Movie
From the very first scene of Slap Shot, the classic hockey film makes its stance clear: The way everybody talks about sports is bullshit. Denis Lemieux, the befuddled language-challenged Charlestown Chiefs goalie, is on television talking to broadcaster Jim Carr, who is trying to get fans to bring t...
Arrested Drunk Man Sings "Bohemian Rhapsody" In Its Entirety In Back Of Police Car [UPDATE]
Dude in the video above wasn't happy about being picked up by the Royal Canadian Mounted Police for being intoxicated. The best excuse he can muster is something about "brotherhood of men on the planet earth" before he segues right into singing Queen's "Bohemian Rhapsody." In its entirety. He even...
The New Columbus Goalie Showed Up For Work In Michigan Gear
Shawn Hunwick's college hockey career ended in heartbreak, as the goaltender's Michigan squad fell to the Union Dutchmen Cornell Big Red in the NCAA tournament five days ago. His NHL career, meanwhile, came as a whirlwind....
JaVale McGee Dunked Jose Calderon Into The Front Row Last Night
JaVale steals the ball. JaVale runs the break. JaVale goes up for the power dunk and almost knocks a brave but foolish Jose Calderon out of the building. It's all so very JaVale. Great call from the Denver broadcast crew, too....
Channing Frye Is The Latest Victim Of A Blake Griffin Monster Dunk
It's not quite what Blake Griffin did to Kendrick Perkins back in January, but that's only because Channing Frye politely gets out of the way once he realizes what's coming. Griffin only accentuates his point by stealing the ball on the Suns' next possession and dunking again....
Bolton Win One For Muamba
From now until the end of the season, we'll be posting a number of clips from the previous weekend's English Premier League games. If there's a goal, save, dive, lip-read profanity, or hocked sputum we should know about, drop us a line at [email protected]. (You might also enjoy our better-late-than...
Why Can't Roger Goodell Go One Day Without Lying?
Let's go on a magical trip to the NFL's fantasy world, where the penalties on the Redskins and Cowboys have anything to do with football. Indulge them when they tell you that two teams spending more than a nonexistent salary cap in the uncapped 2010 season constituted "an unacceptable risk to future...
Chow Fun: Jeremy Lin Has A Pleasant Lunch With "Chink In The Armor" Headline Writer
Anthony Federico, the former ESPNer who wrote the "Chink In The Armor" headline for which he has been apologizing to anyone who'll stand still long enough, tells Newsday: "We talked more about matters of faith [and] reconciliation. We talked about our shared Christian values and what we're both tryi...
Tripping Basketballs: Hoopsters Are Alive And Well At The Ultra Music Festival
While we declared the end to the Hoopster trend a year and a half ago, the Hoopsters show no signs of quitting—certainly not at this past weekend's Ultra music fest in Miami. For the uninitiated, Ultra is the social event for college kids who love Ecstasy and sort of like electronic music. Here are...
Craig James Says Mike Leach Is "A Bully" In Amateurish Campaign Ad
Craig James's floundering campaign for a U.S. Senate seat has a new video in which the candidate trots out his daughter to address the thorny issue of what Mike Leach did to his son at Texas Tech. "If I see wrong, then I'm going to stand up against it. I will never let something go by that is a bu...
