Italian FA: 17-Year-Old Lazio Player Not 42, Just Has Lorde Disease
The guy in the photo above is 17-year-old Cameroonian soccer player Joseph Minala, currently playing for Lazio's youth team. As you'll note, he, well, doesn't look 17. A couple of months ago, a Senegalese website went so far as to claim that he was in fact 41, and had altered his passport. ...

Elderly Samuel Eto'o Bashes Mourinho, Plans To Play As <em>Actual</em> Old Man
Samuel Eto'o is in the Ivory Coast today in support of the Copa Coca Cola, an international youth tournament. In an interview before the event, he had some choice words for the "fool" José Mourinho and anyone else who wants to fuck with Hollywood Court....
José Fernández Is Hurt, And We Aren't Allowed To Love Anymore
José Fernández is 21 years old and unquestionably one of the most exciting players in baseball. I use "player" in place of "pitcher" with purpose, because it's not just Fernández's ability to mow down hitters that makes him so much fun to watch; it's the fact that he milks every ounce of fun he poss...
What Do The Sharks Do Now? If They're Smart, Nothing.
The San Jose Sharks, already widely considered the chokingest team in hockey history, bolstered their reputation on Wednesday night. Now they've got a big decision: soldier on with the same pieces, or blow the whole thing up. Hopefully they keep in mind the fact that no one ever got better by blowin...
The San Jose Sharks Join A Depressing Club By Blowing A 3-0 Series Lead
If you know a Sharks fan, hug them—unless you're a Kings fan. San Jose lost to Los Angeles 5-1 in Game 7 to completely blow a 3-0 series lead. It's history in the worst way....

José Abreu Is The Game's Best Old-Fashioned Slugger
José Abreu had himself a damn weekend. On Friday night, he clubbed two home runs—including a walk-off grand slam that nearly led to old bastard Hawk Harrelson having an on-air joy-aneurysm—and drove in six runs against the Tampa Bay Rays. On Sunday, he came away with two more hits and four more RBI,...

Jose Fernandez And Alex Wood Strike Out Everyone
Last night, the Marlins and Braves teamed up to do something that has never been done in the modern era: they combined to strike out 28 times in a nine inning game while failing to draw a single walk. After checking the math real quick, I believe that is an assload of strikeouts....
Tomas Hertl Continues To Be Adorable
The Sharks' 20-year-old Czech center Tomas Hertl had a pair of points in his first career playoff game, but I don't really care about that right now. I care that earlier this month, Hertl was introduced to the wonders of Dave & Buster's. ...
