Pekka Rinne Smashed The Shit Out Of His Stick, And Yeah I Get It
The Sharks’ dream Game 7 was, necessarily, a nightmare for Nashville. Or: You don’t lose an elimination game 5-0, getting outshot 17-3 in the first and only managing 20 shots on goal of your own all night, without just about everything going wrong....
The Predators Have Something Left In The Tank
The Predators are counter-punchers. They fought back from 3-2 down to make it to the second round. They fought back from being outplayed in the multiple overtimes of Game 4 against the Sharks to snatch a win. With their backs up against the wall again last night, they fought back from an early two-g...
Jose Altuve Can Do It All
The Houston Astros have been one of the most disappointing teams in baseball this season, sitting last in an AL West they were expected to dominate. The pitching staff has been giving up too many runs and even ace Dallas Keuchel’s stats are down across the board (beard’s still good at least). But Ca...
The Sharks Thought They Got Screwed On Joe Pavelski's No-Goal
What would a triple-OT game be without some controversy? Two periods before Mike Fisher won it for Nashville to knot up the series, San Jose’s Joe Pavelski thought he had finished things off, scoring from his belly (and with Pekka Rinne pinned beneath him). It was a mess....
Yeah, OK, I'm All About The Sharks
The NHL’s playoff bracket is a little bit broken when each conference’s best two teams are playing each other in the second round, but a nice side effect is that we’re getting close series—and through two games, they look close all around. That includes Sharks-Predators, even if San Jose is up 2-0. ...
Jose Fernandez Was Delighted By This Kenta Maeda Pitch That Fooled Him
Kenta Maeda has spent his first season on this side of the Pacific confounding hitters and even socking the odd dinger. Tonight, he did it again, hoodwinking Jose Fernandez into chasing this pitch way up in the zone. Fernandez was so charmed by Maeda’s pitch that he couldn’t keep from laughing all t...
How The Sharks' Power Play Will Bite You From Any Angle
If you had the entire NHL to draft from, you might not be able to construct a more logical top power-play unit than the one the Sharks can ice every night. Maybe not the “best”—third best in the NHL this year, though—but there’s not another that’s so well-defined, that offers such weapons from every...
Joe Pavelski Muscled The Sharks To A Series Lead
Sucks for those of us on East Coast time, but the three most intriguing first-round playoff series are out West. The West has most of the best teams this year, and the best storylines, and for now the best match-ups, and none better than this year’s (first, maybe) California series. And if you went ...
New MLB Slide Rule Costs The Blue Jays A Game And They Are Pissed
Baseball’s controversial new Chase Utley Rule was implemented for the first (update: second) time in a game tonight, and it could not have come at a more crucial juncture. Down by a run with the bases loaded and one out in the top of the ninth, Edwin Encarnacion slapped a grounder to third. Logan Fo...
Report: Domestic Abuse Charge Against Jose Reyes Will Be Dropped
The Associated Press is reporting that Maui prosecutors will dismiss a domestic abuse charge against Rockies shortstop Jose Reyes. Deputy Prosecuting Attorney Kerry Glen told the AP that the reason is Reyes’ wife isn’t cooperating....
Intense Hockey Referee Is A Good Referee
Referee Wes McCauley needed a replay review to confirm a questionable Melker Karlsson goal during last night’s Kings-Sharks game, and he went all out when making the call:...
What On Earth Is Going On With José Mourinho's Manchester United Pre-Contract?
We can all agree that the big takeaway from the pre-contract José Mourinho has reportedly signed with Manchester United is the simple fact that, after a few months on the sidelines, no doubt stewing over the calamity that was his final season at Chelsea, our man Mourinho will almost certainly be bac...
Report: It's Mourinho Time, Baby!
The best parts of the first half of this very weird Premier League season were most certainly Chelsea melting down and playing like dogpiss and also all the wacky hijinks José Mourinho got himself into. Now, according to El Pais (Sp.), our hero has signed a “pre-contract agreement” with Manchester U...
St. Joseph's Coach Phil Martelli Wants To Know Where The Weed's At
St. Joseph’s took down Cincinnati 78-76 after the Bearcats had a game-tying dunk wiped out at the end of regulation. Coach Phil Martelli was understandably pretty relaxed and happy after the game, and interrupted a question from an apparently very chill reporter to ask if they sold the devil’s lettu...
St. Joe's Survives As Game-Tying Cincinnati Dunk Waved Off
Referees waved off Octavius Ellis’s would-be buzzer-beating dunk for Cincinnati after video replay showed the Bearcats senior still had the ball as the horn sounded....
¡Qué Golazo!
Quincy Amarikwa put San Jose up 2-0 on Portland tonight in MLS action with a magnificent 40-yard strike that left Timbers keeper Adam Kwarasey looking like an absolute buffoon. ¡Qué golazo!...
Jose Bautista And The Phillie Phanatic Have A Fitness Contest
I don’t what baseball’s unwritten rules say or don’t say about challenging mascots to handstand contests, but I’d like to believe they’re encouraged....
Old Man Swears At Cloud
Fortuitous timing, this, coming just hours after Bryce Harper said baseball needs to allow its players to show they’re having fun, and just about the entire world agreed with him, and it started to feel like this whole pro-celebration movement has become so obviously dominant that it’s all in opposi...
