Blind Brazilian Soccer Man Scores A Couple Bangers In The Paralympics
Meet Jefinho, the blind soccer five-a-side player who’s been called the “Paralympic Pelé.” In the semifinals of a Paralympics against China, Jefinho demonstrated how he earned such a lofty moniker by dusting the entire Chinese defense before cracking in a shot from distance—twice....

Adrian Beltre Is Still Slapping Dingers From One Knee
Adrian Beltre is one of the most entertaining baseball players any of us will ever have the pleasure of watching.

Soccer Man Gets Extremely Hyped About This Dope Thing He Just Did
It’s not often that defenders are the architects of highlight reel-quality plays, and seeing as an acrobatic goal-line clearance is basically the defensive equivalent of a golazo for an attacker, it makes sense that Bursaspor’s Aziz Behich was super pumped after pulling off this amazing feat:...
Mario Balotelli Is Back, Baby!
The shirt colors look familiar but the team is different, and so are the country and the pressure and the expectations, and maybe even the player, too. Mario Balotelli is back on the soccer field for the first time in a long time, and he’s doing good things for the first time in even longer....

South Dakota State Tight End Makes A Gorgeous One-Handed Touchdown Catch

A few plays after setting a key block to spring C.J. Anderson for a long run, Broncos rookie Andy Janovich took the very first carry of his career 28 yards into the end zone.

Watch This Gnarly Dude Break The World Skateboarding Speed Record
Until a week ago, the fastest any human had ever gone on a skateboard was 80 MPH. That is fast enough to leave you streaked across a generous stretch of road should you fall, but it was not nearly as mega gnarly as Kyle Wester’s 89.4 MPH shred that he pulled off on August 29....
Dansby Swanson's First Career Dinger Was A Madcap, Inside-The-Park Dash
Dansby Swanson is one of the hottest prospects in Major League Baseball, and he hit the first home run of his career tonight in rather lively fashion.

Quinn Cook Crossed The Soul Out Of This Foolish Child
Former Duke Blue Devil Quinn Cook hasn’t been heard from much since going undrafted in the 2015 NBA draft. He’s been grinding away in the D-League, though, which has kept his skills sharp enough to maim and humiliate basketball campers....
