How Eliud Kipchoge Made The Chicago Marathon Easy To Watch
We get caught up in records, but there's a lot to be said for style. This is especially true in the marathon, dominated by images of fatigue, frozen faces, bleeding nipples, crap-streaked legs, and claw-rigged arms—and those are just the spectators. The visible degradation over 26.2 miles from athle...
Percy Harvin Traded To Jets; Marshawn Lynch Is Sad

Royals Fans Celebrate Pennant With Long, Sloppy Victory Kiss
The YouTube description accompanying this video claims that these two lovebirds are total strangers, which seems a little hard to believe, but I guess anything is possible when two people are a few beers deep and the Royals make the World Series for the first time since 1985....
Watch This Footage Of Wanderlei Silva Just Headbutting Fools In The Face
So I've been on this kick recently where I fall down YouTube MMA rabbit holes, and I stumbled upon this like two and a halfish days ago. This here vid is a tribute to Vale Tudo, which is a precursor to modern mixed martial arts. It has no rules, basically. It is fucking bananas. ...

Suns Owner Robert Sarver Calls Out Spurs For Phoning In Preseason Game
The Spurs' starting five for last night's game against the Suns was a bit underwhelming: Matt Bonner, Aron Baynes, Tony Parker, Danny Green, and Kyle Anderson. Tim Duncan, Tiago Splitter, Manu Ginobili, Kawhi Leonard, and Patty Mills all sat out. Gregg Popovich didn't even show up to coach. (Hey, it...
David Moyes, On What We All Saw Coming: "I Really Didn't See It Coming"
Former Manchester United manager, laughingstock, and amateur golfer David Moyes has stayed pretty quiet since getting canned before last season's end. (Publically, at least. Don't come at him sideways at a wine bar.) Today, he spoke to the Guardian, expressing a frankly unbelievable level of naive...
Kelly Slater's Impossible, Unnameable Air: An Explainer
Today in Portugal, Kelly Slater pulled off an aerial maneuver never before completed on a surfboard. The only problem is no one can agree on what to call it. ...

Jets Fan Reacts To Loss Not With Anger, But Complete Emotional Shutdown
This guy's probably reacted to Jets losses with fury and/or screaming in the past, but maybe he's just sick of it, it being everything. Last night, as the Jets' field goal attempt for the win failed, our Jets fan wasn't able to do anything but promptly walk into the bathroom so he could pretend he...
All Pumpkin Everything: How Did Fall Turn Into Nutmeg Season?
The list of pumpkin-spiced items to which we are seasonally exposed grows longer every year: Since Starbucks opened the floodgates with the Pumpkin Spice Latte in 2003, we've been enticed, repulsed, and confused by similarly flavored vodka, bagels, yogurt, donuts, oatmeal, M&Ms, etc. And yes, this...

Madison Bumgarner's Fastball Is Getting Deadlier
Giants ace Madison Bumgarner didn't seem to have his best stuff during Game 5 of the NLCS, and was particularly let down by his cutter. It was flat, non-biting versions of that pitch that yielded an RBI double to Jon Jay and a solo home run to Tony Cruz Jr. (Matt Adams also took him deep on a curveb...
