From Michael Lewis' 2009 New York Times Magazine profile of Shane Battier:...
The Browns Have Essentially No Coaching Staff Right Now
It was stupid when Browns head coach Rob Chudzinski was booted after only one season, but Cleveland's situation is getting dumber. The front office still hasn't found a replacement while other rebuilding teams, like the Texans, Skins, and Vikings, have hired new coaches. And now, while the Browns ha...
Four Kings Stop Trying Against Brad Marchand, Give Up Shorthanded Goal
This shorthanded goal isn't possible without some effort by the Bruins' Brad Marchand, but what sloppy defense from the Kings....
Our Month Without Booze Is Past The Midpoint. Shit's Getting Real.
Week Three. The Wall. We warned you that Week Three would be the hardest. The novelty of Drynuary definitely wears off by now, boredom creeps in with a vengeance, and somehow you have to negotiate the interminable two weeks between the NFL conference championships and the Super Bowl without your fav...
So Why Was That Angry Speed Skating Guy So Angry?
Sjinkie Knegt, an Olympic-bound speed skater from the Netherlands, graced us this weekend with the greatest speed skating photo of all time when he lost the 5000m relay at ISU European short track speed skating championships to Victor An, a Russian by way of South Korea. Now we can't help but ask on...
The NFL Can Force These Eight Teams To Appear On <em>Hard Knocks</em>
After the NFL and HBO had a devil of a time finding a team to agree to be on Hard Knocks, owners passed a new rule. Now the league can force a team to admit HBO cameras into their training camp unless that team a)has a new head coach, b)made the playoffs in one of the previous two seasons, or c)alr...
Tom Brady On Richard Sherman: "We Win With Graciousness"
Richard Sherman! Everyone's talking about him, including Patriots quarterback Tom Brady, for some reason. While on the Dennis and Callahan show this morning, Brady was asked what he thought of Richard Sherman's postgame interview....
Richard Sherman And The Plight Of The Conquering Negro
Last night in the NFC championship, the San Francisco 49ers trailed the Seattle Seahawks by six, 23-17, with 30 seconds left in the game. Quarterback Colin Kaepernick had led the 49ers all the way down to the Seahawks' 18-yard line. He took the snap out of the gun, set his feet, and released a floss...
Skiing Through Colored Snow Produces Some Stunning Visuals
Ski videos can get tiresome—we've all seen plenty of slo-mo clips of bros shredding through powder while concussive house music plays over the footage—but brothers Nicolas and Loras Falquet have found a way to add a new wrinkle to the genre. ...
NaVorro Bowman Had Popcorn Spilled On Him As He Was Carted Off
When NaVorro Bowman was carted off with a torn ACL, NFL.com's Gregg Rosenthal tweeted that "Seahawks fans threw food at "Bowman". That sounded very, very bad, especially for a fan base that loves to self-proclaim itself the best in football. But here's the footage, and it's...probably just one jerk?...
Martin Erat Rams His Stick Into Brian Boyle's Balls
I don't care if the puck is underneath Boyle, that's real fucked up, Erat....
Keifer Sykes Is 5-Foot-11 And A Dunking Maestro
Green Bay guard Keifer Sykes may only be 5-foot-11, but his height does absolutely nothing to prevent him from throwing down ridiculous dunks. ...
NFL Will Consider Making Fumble Recoveries Reviewable
You probably guessed this from your own knowledge of how knees are and aren't supposed to bend (Warning: photo is painful to look at, but maybe not quite as painful as Fox showing the replay six consecutive times), but the preliminary diagnosis indicates that all-pro linebacker NaVorro Bowman has a ...
Crabtree Reportedly Tried To Fight Richard Sherman At A Charity Event
Michael Crabtree may have made some disparaging albiet tame pregame remarks about Richard Sherman, but everyone is still sort of wondering what exactly got Sherman so fired up yesterday. Sherman alluded to "something personal" during his postgame comments, and now the Seattle Times sheds some light ...
This Is The Best Speed Skating Photo Of All Time

World, meet Richard Sherman. He's an interesting guy. ...
Jim Harbaugh Drops Ernest Hemingway Line In Postgame Interview
The man had just lost a football game. He did not know what to say, how to make it clear. Now he would never use the plays that he had saved to use until he knew enough to use them well. At least his khakis fit. They always fit, and they always made sense. Eight dollars is what they cost....
