The always-enjoyable David Fleming has a story about communal showers in this week's ESPN The Magazine. It's nominally about the Michael Sam controversy, and asserts that no one cares if a gay man is looking at penises in the locker room—because everyone is looking at penises in the locker room....
Watch This Botched Baseball Slide In Agonizing Slow-Mo
Baseball players: Do not slide like Lotte Giants infielder Hwang Jae-Gyun did into third base. This is not how to slide.

Just Undo It: The LeBron James Profile That Nike Killed
This profile of LeBron James was reported and written in 2011 for Port, a new London-based men's magazine, under odd circumstances: Nike paid for the writer's travel expenses and a portion of his fee.
