Vince Carter's Old-Man Dunk Makes Me Happy
Let's be honest, this probably isn't a bloggable dunk if it had been done by, say, Terrence Ross or Gerald Green. A good-but-not-great dunk is a little more noteworthy, however, when it's 37-year-old Vince Carter throwing it down, showing us all that sometimes—even when you're a shell of your former...
Four-Star Prospect Has Enough Recruiting Letters To Bathe In
Quart'e Sapp, a four-star linebacker prospect from Georgia, posted this photo to Twitter last night, of him soaking in a bathtub full of recruiting letters. If he were five-starred, he'd probably have enough to swim in....

Serbian MMA Fighter Chokes His Opponent Out, Then Helps Save His Life
The Serbian Battle Championship 4—which occurred earlier this month—saw a crazy end to this fight between Dusan Dzakic and Sebastijan Emini. At the 4:20 mark in the video above, you can see Emini frantically tapping out. The reason? Dude's starting to choke to death. Lucky for him, both Dzakic and...
Tyler Seguin Is NOT Happy With This Referee's Positioning
You know what it's like. You're just trying to set up camp in the corner, maybe get the puck and then fire a pass in front of the goal, and the damn referee keeps getting in your way. My favorite part of this video is when the ref yells "I'm not moving!" Exactly, dude, that's why Tyler Seguin is m...
Timofey Mozgov Had A Rough Night
Not only did the Nuggets get their butts kicked in Charlotte tonight, but Denver center Timofey Mozgov ended up bloodied after this one-two punch to the face:...
Johnny Manziel Does His Job Better Than Sports Reporters Do Theirs
Sports reporters are often like a dumb herd of sheep, heading all in the same direction at once for reasons they don't understand. Here at the end of the NFL season, they've seemingly all decided to salary-shame the players they don't like. After Browns coach Mike Pettine announced today that Johnny...
Steve Young Compares Peyton Manning To Obama, Or Something
I think Steve Young is trying to say that for Denver to beat Cincinnati tonight Peyton Manning needs to play well—which, duh—but did he need to use some garbled metaphor about Manning, Obama, and dictatorship to do it? Or is he trying to sneak some political commentary about Obama—go search Twitter ...

Double-OT Miami Beach Bowl Ends In All-Out Fight Between BYU & Memphis
It's a Monday afternoon, and thus time for college football live from an MLB stadium. Today's Miami Beach Bowl between BYU and Memphis may have been this season's most exciting football game—Memphis hit a 55-yarder to stay alive and then grabbed a game-ending interception to seal a 55-48 win—but it'...

Who Cares If Jérémy Ménez Was Just Fucking Around, This Goal Is Dope
"Well actually," pedantic soccer fan (but I repeat myself) begins, "Ménez had been offside for a while, so the 'goal' was"—yeah, shut the fuck up. Just look at the spin on that thing:...
Pats Fan At Jets Game Gets Nachos Dumped All Over Him In Fight
We aren't sure the context here, but it appears our brave Patriots fan—not only did he venture out to Jets country, he did so while sporting his customized team hoodie, which reads "God Maserati"—was being escorted out of the stadium by security when some Jets fans began to taunt him. Mr. Maserati...
Here's A Strong Ale That Tastes Like Cookies And Weed
Now that I've got a gift guide out of the way and a best-of list mostly under control, it's time to shift focus to the final installment of the lazy blogger's year-end trilogy: the resolutions post. I haven't made much progress on that one yet, but I do know that "Stop caring about dumb names and ...

Josh Smith Has Been So, So, So, So Bad This Year
Stan Van Gundy has thrown Josh Smith into a volcano. Surely, this is the funniest thing that will happen in the NBA this year. But while we wait to see where Josh ends up next—the Rockets are apparently in the lead, but we all want him on the Mavs—let us remember that however well we think he might ...
Gary Pinkel's Outfit Blows One Player's Mind
The conceit behind Mizzou's "NFL Day"—the last on-campus practice of the year—is that players can wear whatever they want. And they wore everything: full camo, tinted visors, jewelry. Gary Pinkel got in on it too, breaking out the gold sweatsuit and sparkly sneakers. Keep an eye on the face of DT Jo...
