Dirk Nowitzki Gets Rejected By The Rim, Has A Funny Excuse
Dirk Nowitzki is old as hell. He’s still great, mind you, but he’s very, very old. So old, in fact, that he’s out here getting stuffed by rim despite being seven feet tall....
Report: Steve Sarkisian Is Looking For An NFL Coaching Job

Is The Hall Of Fame Screwing Over Curt Schilling For His Hot Facebook Memes?
Curt Schilling is many things—a bloviator, a dummy, a bad Facebook person, a hilariously incompetent businessman—but I think the one thing we can all agree on is that, whatever his faults, the man could pitch his ass off and deserves to be in the Baseball Hall of Fame. Ah, but at present he is NOT. ...

Phoenix Suns owner and amateur intergenerational psychologist Robert Sarver has purchased a controlling stake in Mallorca, a Spanish soccer club currently playing in the country’s second division. The move is presumably good for Sarver and the rest of his ownership group, which includes noted soccer...
<i>New York Times</i> Not Quiiiite Ready To Tie Derek Jeter To A Doping Ring
While the paper doesn’t seem eager to draw attention to it, New York Times columnist Michael Powell has a scoop today: Derek Jeter is connected, at a degree of remove, to what recent Al Jazeera reporting presents as a doping ring that allegedly provided Peyton Manning, James Harrison, and Ryan Howar...

#DaddySworeAnOath Is The Best Way To Mock Those Oregon Dinguses
Out of all the jamokes currently attending the Guns ’N Camo sleepaway camp in a remote and unspectacular administrative building in Oregon, the guy in the video above might be the jamokiest. Click play, and you’ll see Jon Ritzheimer tearfully inform his children that he won’t be home for awhile beca...
Dylan Larkin Turns Cory Schneider Into A Flounder
Red Wings Dylan Larkin transformed Devils goalie Cory Schneider into a fish out of water Monday night. Larkin kicked up his leg, faked a shot on Schneider’s stick side, and went back around. The goal was Larkin’s 14th of the season. This rookie’s pretty good....

Daniel Sedin's Teeth Go Flying
Early in last night’s 3-2 Coyotes win, Canucks forward Daniel Sedin took a batted puck directly to the mouth. Watch the replay at the 22-second mark (or don’t!); you can see a tooth make a leap for freedom....

What Are The Colts Doing? [Update]
It is a huge surprise that the Colts decided to stick with Chuck Pagano as head coach—he’s been a dead man walking for weeks, and very specific reports had Jim Irsay set to fire him at the close of a disappointing season. But the unexpectedness of Pagano’s retention pales in comparison to the absolu...
#1 Kansas Knocks Off #2 Oklahoma In 3OT Thriller

Colts Won't Chuck Pagano, After All

Here Is A "Loop Video" Of Ken Griffey Jr.'s Perfect Swing For The Hall Of Fame Voter Who Wanted One
MLB.com baseball writer Marty Noble has turned in his Baseball Hall of Fame ballot, and from the deep pool of eligible candidates, he has selected just Ken Griffey Jr. and Jeff Kent. The ballot is ridiculous on its face. Besides the obvious shoo-in Griffey, Noble includes only Kent (and not any of t...
Hatem Ben Arfa Is Straight Fooling On Dudes In France
This dribble is somehow even more ridiculous than the last time Hatem Ben Arfa popped onto our radar for doing something insane (in the good way, for once). If that little heel flick he did to get by the keeper wouldn’t have gotten cleared off the line, this would be an all-timer....
Kanye West's New Song Is So Bullshit
I’ve been a Kanye West stan since high school. I’m on record as saying he has like 18 perfect songs. I’ve dressed up as Kanye for Halloween, twice. I’ve publicly hailed “All Day” as an unmatched sonic triumph even though I know it’s just okay. 808s & Heartbreak made me cry, and My Beautiful Dark Twi...

Tom Coughlin Shuffles Off
After what feels like 57 years of being on the hot seat, Tom Coughlin, a man who perfectly embodied the word “coot,” is leaving the New York Giants. Officially, Coughlin has decided to step down, through a statement released by the team:...
