Justin Gatlin Remains Track's Most Controversial Figure Of 2014
Today in Brussels, in the final Diamond League race of the year, Justin Gatlin won the men's 100-meters in a world-leading 9.77 seconds.

Cute, Deluded Young Leeds Fan Thinks He Can Coach Team To European Cup

Reddit user Niehaus has crunched the numbers, and put together a series of graphs comparing the rate of swearing across team- and sport-specific subreddits.

In our parks, children and the elderly are routinely yelled at by runners, cyclists, and stoners on longboards (watch out, breh). And in our cities, unifor...
