Florida Teammates Get Into Fight Over Cleats; Police Called

Is The Redskins' "VIP" Indian Defender A Fake Indian?

Mark One Wolf was, for a time, a favored native in Dan Snyder's fight to save the "Redskins" nickname. "Native American backing team name is VIP at practice," read a Richmond Times-Dispatch headline. It was accompanied by an Associated Press photo of One Wolf in profile, as if to echo the team's l...

NBA Players Are Coming To Get Their Money Back In 2017

The NBA's bonkers new TV deal means there is going to be more money flowing into the league than ever before, and everyone is already thinking about 2017, when the players or owners can opt out of the current CBA and re-negotiate how all that revenue is going to be divided up. Based on comments from...

Green Flash's Fall Seasonal Beer Is Absurd, Pointless, And Delicious

San Diego's Green Flash Brewing Company kinda goes their own way, which is a funny thing to say about a Southern California brewery built around stuffing hops into every crevice of every beer they produce—the most radical thing a West Coast beer company could do in 2014 is just settle down and mak...

Adrian Peterson Blames Media For Reporting On Charity-Funded Orgy

Yesterday, the Star Tribune dropped a comprehensively reported bombshell, accusing Adrian Peterson's All Day Foundation of misusing funds intended for charity, and failing to keep proper books or account for much of the money it took in. Last night, Peterson offered a rebuttal:...

Richard Sherman Had His Hair Pulled, Responded With Vicious Shit-Talk

Seahawks cornerback Richard Sherman has always walked a fine line between showman and dickbag. After infuriating Pierre Garçon to the point of hair-pulling, and dismissing his football worth entirely, I bet I could guess which side Garçon would come down on....

Cardinals Fans Get Ugly In Clash With Ferguson Protesters

This guy right here, the one with "I am Darren Wilson" taped onto the back of his Cardinals jersey—an homage to the Ferguson, Mo., police officer who shot an unarmed teenager named Mike Brown to death in August—was at the Cardinals game last night. He, along with many other Cardinals fans, clashed...

Matt Kemp Blasts Dale Scott's Strike Zone: "The Worst I've Ever Seen"

John Lackey was masterful and the L.A. bullpen couldn't hold the fort in last night's 3-1 Cardinals win, but afterward, all a number of Dodgers could talk about was home plate umpire Dale Scott. Matt Kemp went off:...

Steven Stamkos Has Total Goal Recall

TSN host James Duthie gave Lightning scoring machine Steven Stamkos a test. A random date, an opponent, and a score, and Stamkos was asked to recall his goal. Goals, plural, it turns out—and Stamkos nailed them both....

This Kangaroo Fight Is Better Than Most Boxing And UFC Matches

I have no good theories about why these two kangaroos are fighting—is there territory or a food source to be fought over in the middle of the suburbs?—so I can only assume that they are fighting because they crave combat. ...

You Like Bacon Because <em>They</em> Told You To

You are a North American, and probably a male, and so you like bacon. Bacon good, you say, making that Tim Allen caveman face: Me like bacon. Me not want to eat unbacon food. Bacon make food better. Me put bacon on burger, in chocolate, around scallop. Me brush teeth with bacon toothpaste. Me make l...

This image comes from an interactive strike zone chart FanGraphs put together that shows every ball and strike call this postseason. It even lets you sort by umpire. Head to FanGraphs and check it out....

It Took 36 Browns QBs 28 Seasons To Match Peyton Manning's 500 TDs

Peyton Manning reached 500 touchdown passes yesterday. Five hundred is an arbitrary number. (A nice, round number that enshrines him in the elite company of one, but arbitrary nonetheless.) How can you truly grasp the weight of an arbitrary number? Set it as the constant, and see how extreme the oth...

Miller Lite Just Won Gold At The Great American Beer Festival. How?

The Brewers Association held their prom this past weekend, and in keeping with timeless prom tradition, I was left home alone while all the cooler boozers attended the Great American Beer Festival in Denver. (Incidentally, my invitation to the Spring Formal was also lost in the mail, as April 11 s...

Mike Francesa Fell Asleep On The Air Again!

Rugby Fan Celebrates Title By Swinging His Dong Around On TV [NSFW]

The South Sydney Rabbitohs won their first National Rugby League Grand Final in 43 years, and their fans were quite happy. One guy celebrated by taking off his pants with the quickness, and waving his dick around in the background of a live Channel Nine Australia broadcast....

How Much Charity Did Adrian Peterson's All Day Foundation Do? [UPDATE]

Adrian Peterson's All Day Foundation has been described as focusing on at-risk children, particularly girls. But there's an interesting tidbit buried within a lengthy Star Tribune takeout on the indefinitely suspended running back that's worth a lot more attention than his sex life, which is the foc...

Miami Dolphin Arrested, Tazed For Allegedly "Touching Females" At Club

Miami Dolphins defensive end Derrick Shelby was arrested early Saturday at a Florida nightclub for allegedly causing a disturbance. That's one way to spend a bye week. He resisted nonviolently, according to the police report, and his mugshot shows the police handled it their way....
