Dwight Howard Blocks Little Kid; Little Kid Schools Dwight Howard
If you're a small child and you want to go one-on-one with Dwight Howard, now seems to be the time to strike. Previously, we saw him dunk on and block the crap out of a small Wizards fan, and now we have him taking on a pint-sized Kings fan. But this game comes with a surprise ending....
Prep Hockey Player Scores A Barrel-Roll Goal
This is Alex Hopkins, a senior forward from Wisconsin's WSFLG Blizzard, undressing a defenseman, embarrassing a goalie, and just generally being a whirling dervish of a goalscoring machine in a playoff game on Saturday. His team didn't win, but only because prep rules stupidly don't count this as fi...
The Greek Freak Goes Hunting For Blocks
Giannis Antetokounmpo only got credit for one block on this play, but a hometown scorer would have probably given him two. He barely got a finger on the first ball, but it's safe to assume that the Greek Freak's footsteps and flying limbs had something to do with Tony Wroten biffing it. ...
Thomas Robinson's Block Sends Out Shockwaves Of Awesome
Here's a good example of a thing that is particularly cool about the NBA: the way one spectacular play can set off a chain reaction of events that crescendos with an entire arena losing its collective mind....
Jadeveon Clowney's 40-Yard Dash Run Was Ridiculous
Jadeveon Clowney is doing things at the NFL combine today, and he just ran the 40-yard dash in an unofficial 4.47 seconds. Jadeveon Clowney is 6-foot-5 and weights 266 lbs. Jadeveon Clowney is not of this world....
Second-Straight Ridiculous Save Sends Accenture Match Play To Hole 21
Victor Dubuisson hit two straight balls into near-impossible spots in the bunkers of holes 19 and 20 of the WGC-Accenture Match Play and hit two nearer-impossible shots to get out. He and Jason Day moved on to hole 21 after this ridiculous shot put him in position to knock down the putt. Jason Day'...
Louisville And Cincinnati Swap Lead Three Times In Final 30 Seconds
After Cincinnati (7) went on a 10-0 run in the last four minutes to get themselves back in it against Louisville (11), the lead changed three times in the final 30 seconds. Thanks to Russ Smith, the Cardinals were on the right end of the eeny-meeny-miny-moe finish and won 58-57....

Arsenal Strike Again With Mesmerizing Goal

Jermaine O'Neal Makes Game-Saving Block, Is Very Pleased With Himself
You can give Steph Curry the credit for last night's Warriors' victory if you want to—he did tie the game with a preposterous layup at the end of regulation before scoring seven points in OT, after all—but I prefer to think that this game belonged to old-ass Jermaine O'Neal....
Jonathan Soriano's Crushing Shot Scores From Halfway Line
Listening to the bass-heavy "thoom" of this blast from today's Red Bull Salzburg-Ajax match is just as satisfying as watching the ball fly over half the field, hang just over the Ajax keeper's fingers, and nestle softly into the back of the net....
Holy Shit, Everyone Look At This Golazo From Ricardo Quaresma
Portuguese side FC Porto are playing German club Eintracht Frankfurt today in the Europa League. And that doesn't matter at all. They're playing on Thursday night in soccer's NIT, and every single player, coach, ref, and fan would rather be somewhere else, and what the fuck! ...

Canada's Curling Skip Gets Emotional While Watching Final Shot
Jennifer Jones's final stone wrapped up a 6-3 victory for her team in today's gold medal match against Sweden, capping off the Canadian team's unbeaten Olympic run. While watching her shot slide down the ice, the 39-year-old Jones couldn't help but get a little emotional. One thing that's cool about...
Gerald Green Hammers A Lob On Kenneth Faried's Head
Without Kenneth Faried's defensive effort, the degree of difficulty on this alley-oop would not have been nearly as high as it is, so we thank him for doing his part to create a great NBA highlight. But, man, Faried should probably stop jumping near former slam dunk contest winners....
Falling Beam At Indiana's Assembly Hall Is Metaphor For Something
Wow, even in a down year when Hoosier basketball fans don't have much to cheer about, we still rock the joint so hard that literally the house comes down....
Zlatan Ibrahimović Scores Outrageous Champions League Goal
French champions Paris Saint-Germain were visiting German side Bayer Leverkusen today in the Champions League Round of 16. We're not going to leave you in suspense here: PSG had an easy go of it. ...
Damian Lillard's Between-The-Legs Dunk, Animated
Sure, John Wall won the slam dunk contest, but you'd be hard pressed to find a prettier between-the-legs dunk than the one little Dame Lillard put on in the freestyle round. Here it is, in rotoscoped animation. ...
