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....
Jamaal Charles Left The Game After This Play
Jamaal Charles left the game during the Chiefs first drive of the game (a touchdown-scoring drive, regardless) after this hit/tackle. It looks like his helmet hits the ground and he clearly was slow getting up. According to the Bob Glauber he is being evaluated for a concussion and his return is lis...
I Can't Stop Watching This Fan Gank Kyle Lowry's Shoes From Another Fan
This guy is just so casual and so smooth. Boom, one shoe. Boom, two shoes. Turn around, hey what's up. Peace out. Lowry even tries to throw the second one around the interceptor to make sure the guy in the jersey gets at least on of the shoes. No dice....
Urban Meyer's Wicked Game
Urban Meyer was unable to lead the Buckeyes to an Orange Bowl win last night, falling 40-35 in an error-prone game that proved to be the first bowl loss for Meyer since the 2007 season. It's also a consecutive loss for the Urbz, something he'd only experienced three times previously in his career....
Ok. St.'s Final Possession Was Alternatingly Electric And Maddening
For three quarters, the Cotton Bowl was a defensive game. In the fourth quarter, both offensives exploded and began trading touchdowns. The fire inside Gus Johnson that had been contained all night, was slowly rising for what we surely all knew was going to happen. Missouri took a 34-31 lead with t...
How Did The NFL Experts Do With Their Division Predictions?
Let's look at how the 57 NFL Pundits we are tracking fared with their preseason predictions for the division winners. First, here were their collective predictions:...
"I'd Do It Again If I Had To": Bama Mom Speaks
We've heard Michael Connolly's version of the events that lead to Bama Mom leaping onto a group of Oklahoma fans and into our hearts, but now we finally have Bama Mom's side. Most importantly, she wants to apologize to Nick Saban....
Bama Mom Flashes Double-Bird Before Dive-Bombing Oklahoma Bro
Every superhero has an origin story. Turns out Michael Connolly was pretty dead-on about the flying lady and her son. ...
Orange Bowl Halftime Show Features Middle Finger, Terrible Singing
We'd suggest Dierks Bentley created quite the scandal when he flipped off ESPN's cameras during halftime of tonight's Orange Bowl, but by the time he reached this point in his performance any remaining viewers had switched over to the Cotton Bowl on Fox....
