Reader David passed along some old photos from the 1955 Brooklyn Dodgers' locker room. In his email, he claimed that Don Zimmer's dick was fully visible. We decided to dig deeper into this Dodgers dick. Our findings: It's almost certainly not Zimmer's, though the mystery wang does belong to a base...
Let It Be Demolished: Paul McCartney Shuts Down Candlestick Park
Paul McCartney is like the Grand Canyon, or bangers and mash: There's no sexing him up. At 72, he's the rare individual for whom the phrase "living legend" feels like kind of a slight. Bigger than Jesus? Quite possibly. But how many records did Jesus ever sell, and what has he done for you lately? T...

We're ... not entirely sure what this is, but we watched, rapt, after learning it was happening via Twitter user @grabakahitman.

Sammy Watkins Is Out Here Embarrassing Dudes
The Sammy Watkins low-res highlight reel keeps on picking up clips. This latest one is from Steelers beat writer Mark Kaboly, taken during a joint practice with the Bills this afternoon. Watkins completely turns around Steelers cornerback Lew Toller and just blows past him. It's the ankle-breaking c...
The Jets Took Fireman Ed Out To Lunch And Tried To Woo Him Back
Jets superfan Fireman Ed retired from the superfan game a few years ago, so now he's just Fireman Ed. Actually, he's retired from firefighting, too, so he's just Ed Anzalone. Anyway, the New York Jets are so desperate for that superfan-led J-E-T-S chant that they tried to wine and dine Ed back into ...

Actually, Here Is A Good Ranking Of The Fruits
Many internet web sites like to rank the fruits. You can see right away that these rankings are wrong and bad, both because their results are stupid, and for the reason those results are stupid, which is that they were assembled using a lousy-ass amateurish methodology. Amateur bush-league-ass...

Chip Kelly Is Basically The Eagles' Life Coach
