Astros Fan Behind Home Plate Really Wants You To See His Fake Dong
We pride ourselves on vigilance to behind-the-plate fan frivolity, what with jackasses pantomiming blowjobs at Wrigley or dudes outfitting themselves in Marlins gear during non-Marlins postseason games. So when this fan at last night's Angels-Astros game kept standing up to show off his fake dong, ...
De-Pantsed Baby Wanders Through Rockets Postgame Show
Who is that child? Where did it come from? Won't somebody pull up its pants?...
The Thunder Successfully Executed The Rare Double Flop
Down the stretch in the Rockets' 107-100 win, Oklahoma City turned to a “Hack-A-Whatever-His-Name-Is" strategy on Omer Asik. Before that though, the plan was apparently to get in the big man's way and go down like bowling pins....
Kevin Durant Finds That Life Without Russell Westbrook Isn't Much Fun
Comebacks from a 3-0 deficit have been done in hockey, and in baseball, but never in the NBA. It makes sense; those first two sports put an inordinate amount of weight on one person, a goaltender or a pitcher. But basketball is ostensibly the same starting five every night—except when it's not. Hous...
Chandler Parsons Is Really Sorry About Not Fist Bumping That Bro
Chandler Parsons had a huge game last night, scoring 27 points, grabbing 10 rebounds, and dishing eight assists while leading his team to a 105-103 victory over the Oklahoma City Thunder. Right after the game ended, one Rockets fan tried to express his appreciation for Parsons by offering the forwa...
Carlos Delfino Dunks All Over Kevin Durant
This has got to be the highlight of Carlos Delfino's career, right? I mean, I just spent two minutes and thirty-five seconds watching a Carlos Delfino mixtape on YouTube, and I didn't see anything that even came close to being as cool as picking Kevin Martin's pocket, streaking down the court, and ...
Kevin Durant Blew By Four Houston Defenders For A Vicious Dunk
As powerful and graceful as this dunk was, Serge Ibaka's last second layup/tip-in attempt was just goofily anemic. The Rockets win 105-103 and keep the series alive at 3-1....
Kevin Durant To Russell Westbrook: "I Love You, Russ"
There sure are a lot of good vibes floating around in the NBA today, aren't there? We've got Jason Collins bravely opening up about his homosexuality, the Kings staying in Sacramento, and Metta World Peace talking about his Cookie Monster outfit. So let's keep the positivity flowing!...
Houston Beats Phoenix Thanks To Jermaine O'Neal's Buzzer-Beating Goaltend
Tonight's bout between the Rockets and Suns in Houston looked to be headed to overtime when James Harden's buzzer-beating attempt for the lead couldn't find the twine. That's when Jermaine O'Neal decided he had someplace else to be....

Matt Schaub Says The NFL Will Never Evolve Beyond The Pocket Passer
Every morning, the fine folks at Sports Radio Interviews sift through the a.m. drive-time chatter to bring you the best interviews with coaches, players, and personalities across the sports landscape. Today: Schaub thinks Wilson, Kaepernick, and RG3 are just aberrations....
Monta Ellis Wins Game With Ridiculous Buzzer-Beater, Immediately Exits Court
Steph Curry wasn't the only one doing what he was put on Earth to do last night. Monta Ellis, one of the league's most renowned chuckers, had himself a quintessential Monta Ellis game in Houston. He scored 27 points on 9-24 shooting and hit the crazy, game-winning buzzer-beater you see above. It's...
James Harden Sinks Half-Court Buzzer-Beater
As time ticked away in the third quarter of Oklahoma City-Houston, Russell Westbrook was hanging on for the last shot of the period and finally drove to the basket with about seven seconds left. He promptly lost the ball, which wound up in former teammate James Harden's hands with three seconds le...
This Move By Rockets Rookie Donatas Motiejunas Belongs In An AND1 Mixtape
OK, so he probably didn't do this on purpose, but we still can't help but be impressed by Motiejunas's deployment of the old throw-the-ball-off-some-poor-sap's-shoulder move during last night's Rockets-Clippers game. Blinded by the brilliance of the trick, the Clippers' defenders could do nothing ...
Houston Texans Tackle Sings That One Gotye Song Everyone Knows
Just getting this out of the way now—it's obviously not a good showing. OK, moving on. Texans tackle Duane Brown and some other lady performed "Somebody That I Used To Know" by Gotye and Kimbra on Houston's KRBE 104.1 morning drive show this morning because Brown apparently loves the song and work...
Pro Football Hall Of Fame Calls Up Sapp, Parcells, Ogden, Allen and Carter
The NFL's next Hall of Fame class, just announced, has a few dudes the TV made famous. There's Bill Parcells, who made a coaching career of winning two Super Bowls with the Giants and then convincing other teams believe he might ever do it again; Cris* Carter, who just proved that even Jerry Rice Li...
J.J. Watt "Proposes" To His Six-Year-Old Biggest Fan
Earlier this month, one of those "crying children" viral video made the rounds. But this one was different: it wasn't the usual kid crying because their team lost. Six-year-old Breanna was upset that she wasn't 25, because if she were, she would be able to marry Texans star J.J. Watt....
Because Of Some Alleged Hard Bargaining From The Astros, About 60% Of Houston Can't Watch The Rockets
Is there anything worse than a local baseball franchise that hasn't been competitive in four seasons, telegraphs its plans to stay non-competitive by carrying almost no payroll, and is widely expected to occupy the basement of its new league when they switch over this spring? Yes. A local baseball ...
