The Mets Would Like To Offer You Two Bucks Off Detergent (If A Statistical Oddity Happens)
Two days ago, the Mets finished a series in a night game that had been rained out the previous Tuesday and rescheduled.

Kentucky Freshman Misses Dunk In Most Farcical Way Possible
Nerlens Noel is the prized pupil in John Calipari's newest crop of one-year athlete-students.

Rob Gronkowski Now Has A Cereal With An Imaginative Name
Our favorite human beer keg now has his own cereal, and look at what it's called. Grönk Flakes might seem like ordinary frosted corn flakes, but they come in a box with Gronk's likeness on it, so ... there. Sales pitch, you ask? (I know you didn't, but play along.) Don't worry, Gronk's got you cover...
Baseball Is Banning Melky Cabrera From Winning The Batting Title Because Baseball Sucks
A little over a month ago, Giants outfielder Melky Cabrera tested positive for testosterone and was suspended for 50 games.

We didn't quite expect this video to become an Internet sensation when we posted it earlier this week, but goodness gracious do people love pantomimed blowjobs.

Dear Women: Someone Wrote A Terrible NHL Lockout Column About You
Everyone: try not to kill your own grandfather, because we have apparently been transported back to the 1950s, where women are barefoot and pregnant and the biggest casualty of the NHL lockout is wifey, at her station in the kitchen, struggling to keep "hubby" happy....
"What's This Fucking Song?" How A Yankees Free Spirit Reluctantly Ushered In Baseball's Entrance-Music Era
Sparky Lyle's arrival in New York was nothing to get excited about. On March 22, 1972, the Boston Red Sox traded the good but nondescript lefty reliever to the Yankees for Danny Cater and a player to be named later. Ho-hum. But when he actually came into the games—that was something else. ...
Giants 36, Panthers 7: The Game In Three GIFs
This was a slow and deceptive win for the Giants, who run their record to 2-1.

Even without starters Hakeem Nicks and Ahmad Brad...
David Pollack Almost Called The First Half Offenses In Tonight's BYU-Boise State Game A "Clusterfuck"
