Hot Fucking Stove: Don't Touch The Stove It's Extremely Hot
Good news, friends: The Thanksgiving holiday brought us not just a bounty of meats, side dishes, and familial bonding, but also mildly interesting baseball transactions that could have anywhere from no to some impact on the upcoming season of “America’s pastime.”...
This Is Cute
Getting Sharks wingers Tomas Hertl and Tommy Wingels to throw on noise-blocking headphones and try to read each other’s lips is a good bit to begin with, but the real star here is Hertl’s giggle....
Kind And Gentle Aussie Goalkeeper Rescues Seagull That Took A Ball To The Face
Born to a sun-scorched land whose cruelly blistering climes have weeded out all but the most terrifying and murderous critters (and, somehow, koalas), it makes sense that Australians would be better equipped than most to interact with the rare friendly creature that crosses their paths with respect,...
Bodybuilder Decks Official, Flips Tables, And Completely Freaks Out After Losing
This here’s Giannis Magos. He’s a Greek bodybuilder who appears to be about 30 percent tanning oil and anabolic steroids by volume.

It's Always Nice To Get Another Peek At LeBron James's Genius
The “LeBron as cyborg” trope may get old with repetition, but it’s also just ... true? It is true. We’ve been presented with more evidence that he is a post-human basketball genius than otherwise. And while it’s hard to add anything truly novel to the conversation about James, it does happen occasio...
The Strange Case Of The Manhattan Bandit, Serial High School Track And Field Cheater
It seems like it would be fairly difficult to cheat in a cross country or track race. There’s little gamesmanship in foot racing. You show up, you run for the allotted distance, and you finish. It’s a punishingly simple sport, and unless you are doping, cheating is sort of impossible. Which is all t...
DeMarcus Cousins Wishes Professional Ruin Upon John Wall
The Kings and Wizards are playing tonight in front of about 17 people in Washington D.C.

Josh Norman Clarifies Comments About Dez Bryant, Is A Weenie<em></em>
The spiciest moment from this year’s serving of Thanksgiving NFL games was the eruption of a full-blown beef between Josh Norman and Dez Bryant. The two spent most of the game yipping at each other before getting into an altogether muted scuffle immediately after the game ended. ...
Dwight Howard Confronts Shit-Talking Fan
Dwight Howard hears it from fans every time he returns to Los Angeles to play against the Lakers, and last night was no different:...
Government Officials Are Living It Up For Free At Publicly Funded Vikings Stadium
The five-person Minnesota Sports Facilities Authority was created to control and operate the Vikings’ new stadium on behalf of taxpayers, who coughed up half a billion dollars to build it. But it turns out that the MSFA members, along with other public officials, are being well taken care of by the ...
LeBron James Blocks Layup With His Presence
I’m putting the full highlight reel from LeBron James’s 26-10-13 beatdown of the Sixers in this post, because maybe it’s been awhile since you’ve taken a few minutes to really enjoy a set of vintage LeBron James highlights. If you want to see a few bulldozing drives to the rim, some adept and punish...
Gleason's Is Moving
Last week, a man on a ladder unscrewed the sign in the stairwell. Yesterday, a crew was disassembling the rings and packing up all the heavy bags. After more than 30 years, Gleason’s Gym is moving....
Grey Cup Kneel-Down Gets Very Profane
Calgary executed an incredible comeback to force overtime with Ottawa in the Grey Cup, and as the Redblacks took a knee to end regulation, things got very f-bomby on the line of scrimmage. (Let’s get this camera angle on NFL broadcasts, eh?)...
Ravens Commit Repeated Simultaneous Holding Penalties To Run Out Clock On Game's Final Play
The Baltimore Ravens successfully ran out the game’s final 11 seconds on fourth down by committing holding against all nine Bengals who rushed their punter, giving Sam Koch the time to meander around the end zone before finally conceding a meaningless safety....
This Holocaust-Themed Figure Skating Routine Sure Is Something
The image of two figure skaters cheerfully performing a routine in concentration camp uniforms with yellow stars will likely provoke an immediate and harsh reaction, but the intent behind it might make it a little less tasteless. (Your mileage may vary.)...
Scott Tolzien In Primetime: Today's Guide To Ignoring The NFL
All the attention soaked up by the presidential election was one of the possible reasons for the NFL’s season-long ratings malaise, but a few weeks later, nationally broadcast games still aren’t where they used to be....
Brian Kelly Closes Out Notre Dame's Dogshit Season By Losing, Yelling, And Talking About Accountability

Notre Dame's Jerry Tillery Kicks Head Of Player Who Just Suffered Brain Injury [Update]
USC-Notre Dame has long been a dirty rivalry, so here’s Notre Dame defensive lineman Jerry Tillery kicking USC’s Aca’Cedric Ware in the head just after Ware took a brain-scrambling helmet-to-helmet blow from Nicco Fertitta—one that got Fertitta ejected from the game....

Charlie Strong Is Now, Officially, Fired
Texas head coach Charlie Strong is now, officially, fired. He went 16-21 with the Longhorns, including yesterday’s blowout loss to TCU that saw him at the helm despite a week of brass in Austin telling the press he was a dead man walking....
