Dennis Rodman has recruited some allies on his latest basketball diplomacy trip to North Korea. Rodman's team will be playing a team of North Korean all-stars on Wednesday, "a birthday present" for BFF Kim Jong-un. ...
Colin Kaepernick Is Cold-Blooded
Colin Kaepernick forgot to strap on his wristband with his team's plays when he took the field for the second half, forcing the 49ers to burn a timeout. He let cornerback Micah Hyde read his eyes on a pass late in the fourth, and only Hyde's drop kept it from being a backbreaking interception. Cling...
Watch Iowa Coach Fran McCaffery Get Ejected After Bumping An Official
Iowa head coach Fran McCaffery chose a bad time to get ejected from the Hawkeyes' bout against fourth-ranked Wisconsin in Madison: as they held onto a two-point lead over the undefeated Badgers halfway through the second half. That lead disappeared thanks to the four free throws McCaffery afforded h...
Cool Offsides Penalty Has No Effect On 49ers Win
Joe Buck and Troy Aikman might have underplayed how close the 49ers-Packers game was to giving us extra football. Phil Dawson's game-winning kick went through Davon House's arms before it went through the uprights—though House may have been was offsides—as San Francisco won in Lambeau Field, 23-20....
Actual Photos Of Lambeau Field From Today
Remember when we thought it was really cold at Lambeau Field? Well, it still is cold—four degrees, currently—but that wasn't accurate evidence of how Lambeau Field is a frigid hellscape. Here are some real photos from today, thanks to AP photographers....
The Main Ingredient: A Representative Slice
All I wanted was a slice. That's not too much to ask, is it? ...
How To Break A Cricket Bat
Have you ever seen a cricket bat break before? Michael Carberry went to hit at the Ashes, and the ball snapped his blade in two. Everyone acts like it's a rare occurrence, so let's call it that....
This Is Not What Lambeau Field Currently Looks Like
Many people on Twitter thought that this is was the frigid state of Lambeau Field today, before the 49ers-Packers game. It is not. This AP photo is from Dec. 22. The Packers also put it on Instagram two weeks ago....
Dan Snyder's Dickhead Behavior Is A Complex Thing
Skins owner Dan Snyder can be a big fucking prick, as we've documented thoroughly. Rick Maese's new article delving into Snyder's ownership does contain extraordinary anecdotes of Snyder being an asshole, but other stories—in an earnest attempt to provide balance—suggest that while Snyder does care ...
Rex Ryan Waits In Airport, Wears All-Orange Sweatsuit
Rex Ryan went to the Orange Bowl to support his son Seth, who plays for Clemson. Someone spotted him after his trip, waiting at JFK's baggage claim, decked out in a full orange sweatsuit. He earned that "Sexy Rexy" nickname, dammit....
Why The Chiefs Lost
Chiefs players might feel terrible this morning, but they pulled off a rather impressive feat last night. Despite losing Jamaal Charles, inarguably their best offensive player, to a possible concussion six plays into the game, Kansas City's offense still produced 44 points. It's a shame that the Col...
Colts Have New Idiot Kicker: Punter Tweets Half-Nude Pic Of Andrew Luck
Colts punter Pat McAfee tweeted this picture out of the Indianapolis locker room following their insane comeback win over the Chiefs and but for an extremely well-placed man on a cellphone, we're probably all looking at Andrew Luck's johnce. But, that man on the cell-phone was placed, so Mcafee is s...
Chiefs-Colts Was The Classic Playoff Game We Get Every Year
It happens nearly every year and we're always surprised, but Chiefs-Colts was another insane NFL playoff game. After a close first quarter, the Chiefs jumped all over the Colts in the second quarter with 21 points and headed into the half—on an Andrew Luck interception—with a 31-10 lead. The Colts c...
This Is One Way To Score A Touchdown
The Colts just took their first lead of the game to go up 45-44 with under five minutes left to cap an absurd comeback. This, the previous touchdown, was most absurd of all....
Penn State's D.J. Newbill Ejected For Shoving Kendrick Nunn In Neck
Plays like this always make me think about the existence of a textbook for broadcasters. "It's always the second guy who gets caught" would be in Chapter 1, along with a section on Aikmanisms like "...and I'm not so sure they didn't do just that, Joe." Anyway, D.J. Newbill was the second guy here—...
The Saints Are Eating Popeyes Again
The Saints always seem to get a little salty when naysayers bring up the performance disparity when they play on the road. Drew Brees bristled earlier this year after a loss to Seattle when it was suggested the team was basically a guaranteed loss on the road. He had stats ready to show how it was ...
Anthony Sherman Touchdown Celebrations Are A Work In Progress
It's only, like, the second time he's ever done this though, so he's got time to work on it....
