Nice Russian Man Feeds A Hungry Bear Through His Window
This Russian bear was hungry as hell and looking for some late-night eats, so he came to a kind man's window to check out the snack situation. Luckily for this bear, it is Russian tradition (it might even be a law, in fact) to keep a bowl of raw meat near every window in one's house, just in case a ...

Cool Dunks Look Even Cooler In Slow-Mo
There won't be any basketball until Thursday night (bad) because the NBA decided to give everybody a week long break (good) but without changing the start or end date of the season (dumb) so there are more back-to-backs and four-games-in-five-nights (very bad) this year....

McFarland Cross Country: They Built It And Hollywood Came
Given how Hollywood likes to tart up the truth (see American Sniper, Frozen, et al.) you probably have a very good sense of what's going on with Disney's soon-to-be released McFarland USA.
