Giannis Antetokounmpo Denied By Older, Smaller Opponent<em></em>
Giannis Antetokounmpo turned in another monstrous night against the Cavs, scoring 40 points on 16-21 shooting. But this was not one of his finer moments. The Greek Freak looked guaranteed to score when he got the ball right under the basket, with only Dwyane Wade anywhere near him....
Pierre-Édouard Bellemare Turns The <em></em>Canadiens Into Little Orange Cones<em></em>

Chiefs End The First Half With A 57-Yard Mini Hail Mary Touchdown
Alex Smith isn’t the type to throw deep bombs, even in Hail Mary situations, but at the end of the first half today against the Cowboys, the Chiefs QB found a way around that limitation. On the final play before the clock hit zero, Smith was in his own territory and threw a relatively short pass acr...
Deontay Wilder Obliterates Bermane Stiverne In Rematch
Deontay Wilder came into tonight’s WBC heavywight title fight having knocked out every opponent of his professional career, save one: Bermane Stiverne, who surrendered the title after going the distance with Wilder two years ago. Wilder struck that blemish from his record tonight, crushing Stiverne ...
Enjoy Kristaps Porzingis Chasing Josh Jackson Around Like An Angry Storm Cloud
The Knicks beat the Suns last night behind another incredible offensive performance from young Kristaps Porzingis. The Suns have looked frisky since the firing of Earl Watson—that doesn’t make this some great win, but it does help make the case that the Knicks are not, in fact, complete trash. No. W...
LeBron James Devoured The Noisy Wizards
The context for LeBron’s 57-point masterpiece last night is something I, a devoted Wizards fan, would prefer to ignore—the Wizards spent portions of the spring and an interview with ESPN’s The Jump chirping that the Cavs ducked them in last season’s playoffs, and went so far as to say that they, the...
Tywan “Speedy” Claxton Annihilates Opponent With Flying Knee In First Pro Fight<em></em>

Uruguayan Pablo Cuevas is probably not going to win this third-round match against Rafa Nadal at the Paris indoors. But he’ll always have this between-the-legs passing shot to look back on as a career highlight....
Joc Pederson Won't Say Who Has To Pay Him
If the Dodgers go on to win the World Series tonight, one of the more enduring images of the series will be Joc Pederson turning to his own dugout, rubbing his fingers together, and shouting, “Pay me my money!” after his seventh-inning homer in Game 6....

Giannis Is Shaq Now
Here’s a fun Giannis Antetokounmpo fact, from ESPN’s weekly NBA player rankings blog:...
Kristaps Porzingis Is All Right
This feels like a weird thing to say given how much attention has been paid to Kristaps Porzingis since he entered the league two seasons ago, but we are just now starting to see what the big boy can do—not because he’s suddenly unearthed some skills we were previously unaware of, but because he’s f...
JuJu Smith-Schuster Is Having A Ball
It’s been a weird rookie season for Steelers receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster, who last week was unwillingly pulled into a one-sided beef with teammate Martavis Bryant before having his bike stolen. But during last night’s game against the Lions, he had about as much fun as a football player can possibl...
Astros Win 13-12 In Game That Allegedly Went Only Ten Innings
It took five hours, 17 minutes, but the big, stupid, ridiculous Game 5 that started with George Bush throwing out a first pitch and ended with pitchers and catchers reporting to Spring Training is over. The Astros won in “ten innings,” though in a game that took twice as long as their “nine inning” ...
Russell Wilson Tops Deshaun Watson In A Dazzling Offensive Shootout
In an extravagant game filled with 988 yards of total offense, Seattle’s Russell Wilson found a way to pull his team over the top, completing an 18-yard TD pass to Jimmy Graham with 21 seconds left to give the Seahawks a 41-38 win over the Texans. ...

Okay, I don’t want to spoil anything for you, so let me just set the scene. This is action in the North West Counties Football League of England, with Padiham down 3-1 against Widnes in the 92nd minute. Widnes, the leaders, are in yellow, while Padiham is in blue. Now watch:...
