Braised Boneless Short Ribs And A Chat With L'Artusi's Erin Shambura
A few years ago my wife and I were introduced to L'Artusi, an Italian place down on West 10th street in the Village. We rarely have the chance to dine out, but we've been back to L'Artusi a dozen times since that introduction. We feel welcome there—it's a place that makes us happy. The environment ...
Sports Talk Radio: Art Rust Jr.
When I was a kid in the early 1980s, before WFAN, I listened to Art Rust Jr. talk sports on WABC radio. One day, must have been in 1981 or '82, I was home sick and I got to stay in my parents bed that afternoon. Nobody else was home. I listened to Art and was desperate to ask him a question, the mos...
Anthony Davis Did Some Awesome Stuff Last Night
There are so many ways Anthony Davis can humiliate a man. Usually, he does it by extending those stupid-long arms across every inch of airspace over the basketball court, sending away any shot his opponents are foolish enough to send in his direction. But Anthony Davis can also make people look stu...

MMA Fight Concludes In Eight Seconds With A Kick To The Head
Sure, it's an amateur MMA fight, so the eight-second knockout via head kick is devalued a bit, but it's still a sweet head kick. John Lohke was completely not ready, and his response—putting his hands down to try and catch David Maloley's leg—was poorly thought out. BOOM. Head kick....
Outdoor Hockey In Los Angeles Made For Some Awesome Photos
The Ducks-Kings Stadium Series game at Dodger Stadium created an interesting contrast: A thoroughly maintained block of ice in the middle of a city with nary a snowflake to be found. But anything's possible in Los Angeles, right?...
Markel Brown Makes Steal, Unleashes 360 Dunk On West Virginia
We featured Oklahoma State's Markel Brown in these parts a week ago, but here's a more positive highlight. Here's the senior Cowboys wing man executing the turnover on West Virginia today in Stillwater and then bringing a Gallagher-Iba Arena crowd to its feet with a 360 dunk to top it off....
Michael Bublé Defuses Tom Sestito-Keith Olbermann Feud
Some 10 days ago, Keith Olbermann named Tom Sestito the worst person in the sports world and proceeded to get into a Twitter fight with his 13-year-old sister. It was an ugly incident that only the tapioca crooning of Michael Bublé could extinguish. ...
Here's Every Shot Carmelo Anthony Made In His 62-Point Night
Carmelo Anthony had the highest scoring game ever at Madison Square Garden last night and surpassed Bernard King's 60 for the franchise record of points scored in a game. Once Melo passed King (and Kobe Bryant's MSG record of 61 points) he was removed with over seven minutes remaining because the K...
These Seahawks Fans Tried To Watch Last Week's Game In Silence, For $5k
What Fox Sports did to this group of Seahawks fans is just plain cruel. Hilarious, but cruel....
11 Shots Of Liquor, Reconsidered
Good afternoon! Let me tell you how to run your wedding. Just kidding, no one cares about your wedding. Now, back to my wedding: We sprung for the all-you-can-guzzle beer and wine buffet, but we didn't serve hard liquor. This is partly because we're cheapskates and partly because we're sane—the rece...
How Greg Jackson Is Changing The Parameters Of Coaching
Last year, we spent a week with Greg Jackson, a top fight trainer, as he and his team prepared four athletes to compete in the Ultimate Fighting Championship. We were granted unusual behind-the-scenes access so that we could answer a fairly straightforward question: Just what does a great coach do, ...

Well, well, maybe Americans aren't the only ones who don't know anything about soccer. ...
The Single Dumbest Foul So Far This NBA Season
Of course, no sooner do we find out who committed the two dumbest fouls of the season than JJ Hickson, at the end of the half last night against the Blazers, commits this travesty on Wes Matthews, behind halfcourt. Here now, the worst foul of the NBA season so far. ...
Andrea Bargnani Is Out Indefinitely; We Made Him A Tribute Video
Sad news, everyone. Andrea Bargnani, the Knicks player who brought us the most entertainment this year, has a torn ligament in his left arm that will keep him off the court indefinitely. Bargs hurt himself doing what Bargs does best: playing basketball like a dummy....
J.R. Smith Plays Air Guitar While Enjoying A Very Chill Tune
At some point during last night's 76ers-Knicks game, J.R. Smith helped a young girl get through her cover of a popular Lumineers song. This is incontrovertible proof that despite the fact that the Lumineers make vapid, insufferably folksy music that appeals to the lowest common denominator of human...
Shoals on David Stern: "And that's why your retirement is both sad and in some sense, a relief. There's nothing quite like the softening of authority figures, like those presidents who voters want to have a beer with, or prize-winning novelists playing Boggle. At the same time, the feeling that I've...

The West Is OKC's Until Kevin Durant Says Otherwise
In the four weeks since Russell Westbrook's arthroscopic surgery, the Oklahoma City Thunder has fallen from 23-5 (.821) to 33-10 (.767) — that is, the team has racked up half its losses during just 15 games. Westbrook's major stats this season (21.4 points, 6.0 boards, 7.0 assists, 1.8 steals) all t...
