Panthers Write Own Demise With Huge, Fruitless Drives
The Carolina Panthers weren't a total dud in their first playoff appearance since 2008. Their defense sufficiently contained Colin Kaepernick and the 49ers for the most part. But stalled drives killed them. Carolina burned over 17 minutes of game time on two offensive drives, coming away with just t...
Inside The Mind Of A Real Runner
This week, in what will be a recurring feature of ill-defined frequency, I interview an honest-to-goodness Runner. Or at least a Runner as viewed through my hopelessly simplistic and insecure lens. We talk about how you should run (short answer: "a lot") and why (it's apparently a categorical impera...
Derek Holland Injured His Knee Because His Dog Tripped Him
Rangers pitcher Derek Holland had surgery on his left knee Friday and could be out for half of the 2014 season, thanks to his overzealous dog....
Greg Hardy's Dedicated To Being "Kraken"
We've previously highlighted Panthers defensive end Greg Hardy and his tendency to dub himself "Kraken," but maybe we didn't realize the two might be overlapping personalities. Kraken's apparently not as disposable as one of Clinton Portis's alter egos....
Tanner Glass Postgame Features Buck Naked Pens Player In Background
While Tanner Glass talks about a 2-1 win over the Flames, Kris Letang opens a door behind him and yep, that's a totally naked dude....
Tomas Tatar Scores Game-Winner A Day After His Father Passes Away
Jan Tatar, a former soccer player and father of Red Wings winger Tomas Tatar, died on Friday of a liver ailment at the age of 60. The next day, his son scored the game-winning goal on a rebound against the Kings, honoring his father with a tribute after the score....
Once An Afterthought, LeGarrette Blount Beats The Colts Down
Listed at 250 pounds, LeGarrette Blount is just a pound lighter than the Patriots' starting fullback, James Develin. He's not exactly a scatback. He's more of a supersized bowling ball over which someone had draped a jersey—a "north-south" runner, in scouting parlance, who in last night's 43-22 New ...
The Patriots Run All Over Colts, Advance To AFC Championship Game
The Patriots overwhelmed the Colts 43-22, but for a minute there it looked like Andrew Luck might actually be the next young quarterback to unseat the Patriots at home. Then LeGarrette Blount ran 73 yards and put that to rest....
Roof Leak Delays Rockets-Wizards Game In D.C.
The Verizon Center sprung a leak this evening because Washington, like much of the east coast, has been under a blanket of rain and this is the result: a basketball rain delay. ...
Seahawks Beat Saints 23-15 Thanks In Part To Marques Colston's Stupidity
All Marques Colston needed to do was step out of bounds and give Drew Brees a shot at the end zone and, in turn, his Saints a shot at tying today's game in Seattle. Instead he decided to try his hand at quarterbacking himself—and cost his team that one chance at winning....
Big Catch, Let's Headbutt
On third-and-three from their own 45 with just under three minutes left in the game, the Seahawks threw the ball (the second pass play of the drive) down the sideline to Doug Baldwin. He made the catch and in the process had his helmet ripped off. It was a huge play in the game (after review upheld...

It's like they hadn't even seen this play. ...
Olympic Ski Jumper Suffers Skull Injury And Bruised Lung In Crazy Crash
Thomas Morgenstern, a three-time olympic ski jump champion was hospitalized Friday after a scary crash during a practice jump at The Kulm in Tauplitz, Austria. The injuries, though serious, are not life-threatening. He was responsive and asking questions shortly after the crash....
Colin Kaepernick At Hooters
A reader sends along this picture with only a subject that reads "Kaep at Hooters in Charlotte." Missing are the trademark chicken wings or human breasts, so it's hard to tell—though you do get an overall feeling of desperation—but it probably is a Hooters. It looks like he's signing an autograph fo...
