Phillies Smack Three Honkin' Taters In A Row<em></em>
The Phillies, who haven’t finished above .500 since 2011, are actually making the early part of this season interesting—or at least, entertaining—for their fans.

Katsuyori Shibata Is Just The Latest Japanese Wrestling Star To Suffer A Serious Head Injury<em></em>
Throughout its entire existence, the pseudo-sport of pro wrestling’s presence as a subgenre in Japan has been consistently defined by how much harder-hitting it is there than it is elsewhere in the world.

All The Dumb Paul Pogba Haters Need To Check Out This Outrageous Pass
Yes, yes, this is just a single play. One pass doesn’t prove a player is good or consistent or any of the other positive traits needed to attain elite status. But just look at this ridiculous heat seaker of a pass and try to argue, as many have done this season, that Paul Pogba isn’t awesome:...
