This Is Probably The Worst Beer In The World
From 1973 until 2011, Carlsberg Lager marketed itself as "Probably the best beer in the world." That bald-assed lie made it the shame of Copenhagen, and it led all discerning citizens of the beer-drinking world to question if any Dane could ever be trusted under any circumstance. Of course, sales ...
Rangers Goalie Cam Talbot Somehow Stopped This Shot
Nicklas Backstrom, on the right, received a pass from Joel Ward across the goal. He had the puck at this moment. Look at where Rangers goalie Cam Talbot is, and all the wide-open net available. Backstrom shot; Talbot made the save....
List of Kale Items Made With Kale On New McDonald's Menu (With Kale)
The hippies over at Mother Jones magazine drew our attention to how McDonald's "can't decide whether to troll hipsters or embrace them," so while we all figure out which side of the coin ingesting kale falls on, we're wondering about the new McMenu....
Video: Brawl Leads To Man Being Stabbed At Celtics Game
A man wearing a Rajon Rondo jersey was stabbed in the balcony area of TD Garden near the end of tonight's thrilling victory over the Grizzlies, according to Boston.com and numerous other media reports....
Tennessee Won't Give Us Nike's Emails; Maybe They'll Give Them To You
The University of Tennessee recently decided to do away with calling nearly all its women's sports teams Lady Vols, a move that came at about the same time the university announced switching from Adidas to Nike for athletic apparel. Now, they are all Volunteers who will use the Power T logo—except f...
Report: OSU Women's Hockey Coach Told Players To "Get Horny" For Puck
Nate Handrahan resigned Monday after four seasons as Ohio State's women's hockey coach. Ohio State athletic director Gene Smith and human resources director for athletics Kim Heaton received a report that day detailing Handrahan's inappropriate conduct towards players, including his use of telling t...
The NBA Players Union Just Announced It's Ready To Make War On Owners
The National Basketball Players' Association announced today that it has rejected the league's "cap smoothing" proposal, an idea floated by commissioner Adam Silver that was supposed to be an artful way of dealing with the massive influx of cash that will be coming into the league once the new TV de...
Alpine Beer Is Run By Greedy Sell-Outs, Thank God
Last night I played a justifiably obscure game called "sober darts in the basement of an American Legion post." I do not recommend the experience. Darts is a game best played at least slightly buzzed, and ideally quite drunk. But every now and then I have to force myself through a dry Tuesday night,...
Join NFL Prospect Anthony Boone In The Film Room
Anthony Boone started at quarterback for two years at Duke, and now he's getting ready for the NFL Draft. Anthony's here to break down film and answer your questions. This is your chance to get technical....
How One Of America's Greatest Sportswriters Disappeared
It was almost endearing how an ink-smudged, deadline-addicted newspaper editor of yore would squint through the smoke from his cigarette and ask a bright young man why the hell he wanted to write sports. An editor like that was usually about as sensitive as a bolt cutter, but he couldn't resist th...
The "Blurred Lines" Verdict Is Bad News, Even If You Hate Robin Thicke
Thanks to the decision of a Los Angeles jury yesterday afternoon, pop-music fans have a fun, frightening new game to play: Who's Next? No, not named after the Who album—though maybe its infamous pissing-on-the-wall cover shot might now inspire a lawsuit from Andrew Loog Oldham, who as the Rollin...
Racing Club's Ingenious Goal Is Why We Need More Free Kick Shenanigans
Seriously, why isn't there more experimentation on free kicks? As Racing Club proved in the Copa Libertadores last night, there are trickier, probably more effective ways to score from a dead ball than just thumping it vaguely towards goal. We have enough evidence. Let's put it to use....
How To Score Weed
So you want to score some fresh weed, and you are not fortunate enough to live in one of those states that has made the sensible decision to decriminalize it. Congratulations: You’re cool, and you’ve come to the right place (within the wrong place). It’s not that hard to score bud with the right am...
Reports: Saints Trade Jimmy Graham To Seahawks
As first reported by Fox Sports' Jay Glazer, the Seattle Seahawks and New Orleans Saints have reached a trade agreement that will send all-pro tight end Jimmy Graham and a fourth-round pick to Seattle in exchange for a first-round pick and center Max Unger....
Which One Of These Spin Moves Is The Nastiest?
In one corner, we have Giannis Antetokounmpo dusting Quincy Pondexter on his way to a two-handed slam. ...
A Huge New Double IPA For Joyful Perverts
Saturday evening, I went to a 10-year-old buddy's ice-hockey game. It turns out they don't serve beer at youth hockey games in this uptight town; you can't even get a little something extra added to your snack-bar hot chocolate. When you ostentatiously drop a $5 bill in the tip jar before placing yo...
Your Best Stories About Getting Dunked On Like The Losers You Are
We asked you to give us your best stories of getting dunked on and tales of dunking on people, but the former had funnier returns. There were many nuts—some from famous athletes!—in many faces. Here are some of our favorites, in no particular order....
This Beer's Quality Depends On The Freshness Of The Corpse
Friends, pay no mind to your calendars, with their equinoxes and solstices and pictures of dogs dressed for various atmospheric conditions. Disregard their months and days and stubborn refusal to learn where the apostrophe goes in Presidents' Day. None of that matters in determining just what time...
Have You Been Dunked On, Or Have You Dunked On Someone?
There's a funny post at SB Nation about the experience of getting dunked on by someone (wearing sandals). Obviously, it's not fun. Everyone gets to shame you, and you're basically hoping someone puts the ball in play as soon as possible so you can try and regain your pride. The description of the co...
What Is Chip Kelly Doing?
Two months ago, Chip Kelly was given full control over the Eagles' football personnel decisions. Every trade, every signing, every draft pick—that's all Kelly. Which raises the question, given that the Eagles have been the single most active team ahead of the official start of free agency: what exac...
