The Sports Highlight Of The Day Is This Failed Dive
Diving is an impressive sport. Athletes train endlessly so they can nail near-perfect dives, over and over. Even at the high school level, it’s pretty cool....

The Sports Highlight Of The Day Is This Cheerleader's Sorcery
This is just a six-second video, but like any great Vine-length work of art, I’ve already slowed it down and watched it frame by frame multiple times, trying to parse its genius....

Serie A Keeper Scores Ridiculous Stoppage Time Goal On Flying Header
AC Milan had a 2-1 lead on last place Benevento in the 95th minute today, with Benevento setting up for a free kick deep in Milan territory. You know what that means: the underdogs pulled keeper Alberto Brignoli forward to load up the box. And is there any way I would be showing you this video if Br...

Tarik Cohen Runs Like 90 Yards For 61-Yard Punt Return TD
Nothing gets a fan screaming in fear and disgust like a punt returner running the wrong way, but when the 49ers kicked to the Bears’ Tarik Cohen, the Chicago returner made the worst possible decision seem like a perfect one. Cohen received the punt at his own 40 yard-line and ran back to his 25 whi...

TCU's John Diarse Lays Out For Spectacular One-Handed Touchdown Grab
Third-ranked Oklahoma jumped out to a 17-0 lead over TCU after just four total possessions this afternoon, and very much looked poised to run away from the Horned Frogs. A nine-play TCU touchdown drive made it 17-7, and, after a missed Oklahoma field goal, the Horned Frogs got right back to work, us...

Giannis Bullied The Blazers
Giannis Antetokounmpo, who is Shaq now, did not have his greatest game against the Blazers last night, scoring 20 points on 7-of-20 shooting in the Bucks’ 103-91 win. He also did some very rude things to some people. ...

Wayne Rooney Scored From Half Field And Maybe Saved Everton
Everton came into today’s game in 17th place in the league and only two points ahead of their opponents, West Ham. A loss would have sunk them into the relegation zone and extended their run of trash performances. They won 4-0, thanks to a goal from Ashley Williams (who is still butt) and a hat tric...

Mohamed Sanu Throws 50-Yard TD Strike To Julio Jones
Third-and-one in the first half isn’t usually the time to reach deep into the bag of tricks, but the Atlanta Falcons clearly trust wideout Mohamed Sanu to get them all the yards they need, and then some. With the ball at midfield, they had Sanu take a shotgun snap and fire a pass deep down the field...

Antoine Griezmann Smacked In A Very Pretty Bicycle Kick Golazo
Atlético Madrid face an uphill battle to qualify for the next round of the Champions League, and though they have a slim chance to advance, they put their best foot forward today, beating Roma 2-0. Antoine Griezmann, who hadn’t scored for Atleti since September, banged in the opener by going all ups...

Now this is just about as cheeky as it gets:...

The Sports Highlight Of The Day Is This Japanese Game Show's Slippery Stairs
Humankind is mortal. We are born, we flop around and make noise for a while, and then, inevitably, we die. That is perhaps the lesson that the diabolical makers of slippery stairs were trying to teach to their audience. I realize that asking someone to watch a nine-minute video is demanding a lot, b...

High Schooler Kicks Mesmerizing 70-Yard Punt On Clearly Flawed Field
I know it’s a lot to ask you to take a minute out of your day to watch a football roll very, very slowly for about 40 yards, but this punt is truly hypnotic. It appears to come from a high school game in Chicago, with Raby kicking away to Morris Community....

Zolani Tete Scores Fastest Title Fight Knockout In Boxing History
South African bantamweight Zolani Tete has always had serious knockout power. He started his pro career off with seven straight knockouts, and now he holds the all-time record for fastest KO in a major title fight. ...

Mike Wallace Snags A TD With Damarious Randall Glued All Over Him<em></em>
This throw from Joe Flacco looks extremely ill-advised on first glance, with Green Bay’s Damarious Randall giving no space and covering Mike Wallace perfectly as he runs towards the end zone. But somehow, Flacco found a seemingly nonexistent window to fit the ball through, and Randall could do nothi...

Danielle Hunter Sacks A QB And An RT At The Same Time
The Rams’ Rob Havenstein was in perfectly fine position to block Danielle Hunter as he went to take down Jared Goff. But Havenstein’s strength was nowhere near enough. Hunter plowed right through the powerless L.A. right tackle, getting the third-down sack on Jared Goff without having to avoid block...

English Eighth-Tier Player Scores First-Class Golazo
Danny Dubidat plays for Alvechurch FC, way down in the “Northern Premier League Division One South,” which is level eight on the massive English soccer pyramid. No matter where you are, though, anyone can get a shot at glory....

Sioux Falls Goalie Makes The Most Of His Empty Netter Celebration
