College Baseball Team To Wear Jerseys Made Out Of Selfies
There are stupid novelty jerseys, and there are novelty jerseys that you can only assume sprung forth from the darkest corner of the collective unconscious of every social media manager and marketing director in the country. This novelty jersey is one of the latter....

Should Kansas's Seed Be Dropped Because Of Joel Embiid's Injury?
After getting a second opinion from a spinal specialist, Kansas coach Bill Self confirmed that Joel Embiid has a stress fracture and will miss the Big 12 tournament, and most likely—at the very least—the first weekend of the NCAA Tournament. This could—and maybe should—have major implications for Se...
World's Saddest Nets Fan Shits Into Urinal While Vomiting (NSFW)
The picture below the jump is not good. It is not good at all. It is probably something you don't really want to look at if you were planning on getting through the day without feeling queasy or generally disappointed in the current state of humanity....

Report: Goodell, Redskins Discussed Team Name In Secret D.C. Meeting
In December 2013, Roger Goodell and Redskins executives quietly met with a U.S. Senator and Native American activists opposed to the team name. It was the first such meetings since the 1970s, and it was not constructive....
Chris "Birdman" Andersen Should Be A Guest On Every Postgame Show
Birdman was a guest on the Miami Heat postgame show after last night's victory over the Wizards, and he turned what could have been a very boring interview segment into a beautiful piece of performance art. ...
Map: The United States Of America, By Meat
This is fun. L.V. Anderson and Jess Fink of Slate started with a simple observation—Americans consume more meat per person than any other nation on earth (except Luxembourg, those gluttons), yet most of our official state foods are not meat—and have created a map that assigns a unique meat or meat-...
Knicks Try To Keep Season-Ticket Holders Away From Fan Protest
Fed-up Knicks fans plan to protest outside Madison Square Garden before the March 19 game against the Pacers. The visibility will be big—every person on their way into the Garden for that game will get a loud, ugly reminder that this team has gone and is going nowhere....
Justin Bieber's Latest Basketball Highlight Is A Sad Sham
Justin Bieber is back on the court, ballin' like only Justin Bieber can. Which is to say, he's forcing his poor manager, Scooter, to pretend like he just got juked out of his shoes by Justin Bieber's KraZy Dribbling Skillz. Seriously, look at this dive. You'd think he was some jobber selling for the...
Colorado Avalanche And Imagine Dragons Team Up For Dumb Music Video
Dammit, Avalanche. Making a good hockey hype video is not the hardest thing in the world. All you need is a decently edited highlight reel backed by a song that has, like, drums and guitars and stuff. You can even use a song from a band as insipid and annoying as Imagine Dragons! Any song will work...

Over at the Nieman Storyboard Elon Green talks to Roger Angell about Angell's 1975 profile of Steve Blass:...
There's No Meltdown Quite Like A Canucks Meltdown
I know it's hard to conceive of, but there will come a point when you actually feel sorry for Canucks fans. Yesterday's debacle, losing 7-4 to the Islanders after conceding seven goals in the third period, just hours after GM Mike Gillis wrote a letter to season-ticket holders stating the organizati...
On The Anniversary Of His Death By DeAndre, Brandon Knight Dunks
One year ago last night, Brandon Knight got in the way of a DeAndre Jordan dunk and basically died. We haven't seen much of Knight since that fateful evening, but last night he marked the anniversary of the dunkpocalypse with a half-decent throwdown of his own. For that, we feel like he deserves a ...
Marlins Dad Abandons Son For Ground-Rule Double
There is something about retrieving baseballs that is hard-wired into the psyche of all adult males. Maybe it's a vestige of our hunter-gatherer path, but even the sanest of men can't help but drop everything and goofily run after a $17 ball. It's a poor job by evolution, because sometimes we drop o...
This Division III Basketball Team Has The Best Bench Celebrations
The Colby College basketball team is probably not a thing that the residents of Waterville, Maine, need to go out of their way to see in action. It's Division III basketball, after all. The team's bench, on the other hand, is worth the price of admission....
