I Don't Really Have Anything To Say About This White Kid's Bad Rap Song
Here is a bad rap song:...

Some Very Aggressive Kissing On The Kiss Cam At Oracle Tonight
The Kiss Cam is overused as an in-arena gimmick, but the camera/jumbotron operator at Oracle Arena tonight for Game 1 of the NBA Finals did something I haven’t seen before, which was to keep the camera trained on couples after they had already kissed. It resulted in some, uhh, very enthusiastic kiss...

This Should Be The Official State Beer Of Washington, D.C.
The world is a complicated place, and I’m not qualified to govern it. Which sucks, because I could use the extra income and what I imagine to be the generous travel allowance, but I’m just not cut out for the Supreme Overlord life. I cannot, for example, fold a fitted sheet or find Austria on a map....

A Great Pale Ale From A Shady, Pale State
I ran into an old friend Sunday afternoon, and he asked what I had planned for this Wednesday. I had no ready answer, of course, because what kind of a monster has anything particular planned for a Wednesday? I suppose if I'd thought it through for a few minutes I could have projected that as the da...

Bad Knicks Goober Flings Hook Shot To Nowhere
That's Cole Aldrich, starting center for the New York Knicks, draining a sweet turnaround hook shot on the invisible ghost-hoop six feet to the right of the regular one. Good move....

Brazilian Legends Pelé And Coutinho Are Terrible At (Video Game) Soccer
What do you get when you give maybe the greatest soccer player of all time and his old strike partner a couple controllers, a soccer video game, and point a camera at them? Pretty much the same level of cluelessness if I gave the same tools to my grandpa. But hey, at least they have fun with how muc...

Two Fumbles In Final Moments Doom No. 3 Auburn
Auburn, so routinely a team of preposterous miracles, has just managed to bumble its way to a come-from-behind loss tonight at Jordan-Hare Stadium, where the Tigers hadn't lost since 2012. Three weeks after Alabama burned Texas A&M to the ground and salted the earth for good measure, the Aggies, los...

Look, I Drew You A Baseball Calendar
Never too early to get that holiday wish list cookin'. For you baseball fans, this here calendar by Nicole Aline Legault looks like a sure shot: ...

Did Everyone Know That Cole Aldrich Has A Gross Fake Tooth?
I did not know about this fake-tooth situation, and I find it a bit unsettling that he can remove it and pop it back in so quickly. It's even worse when you incorporate sound:...

This Is The Life Of A Backup College Quarterback
Texas A&M quarterback Kyle Allen didn't have any responsibilities yesterday, so he spent some time yesterday chatting with a girl on the sidelines doing video. Mississippi State upset the Aggies, but Allen seems to be fine....

Lame Golfer Kids Attempt The Shmoney Dance, Killing Hot Dance Trend
Apparently some people are confused. The US Junior Ryder Cup team has been attempting to make their shitty interpretation of the Shmoney Dance their official celebratory dance, and some people are buying in. But this is good. This is teachable....

Bud Light Apple-Ahhh-Rita Is Bullshit; Drink Cider Instead
A couple of summers ago, Anheuser-Busch introduced the abominable Bud Light Lime-a-Rita, sweet fake-citrus bullshit intended to capitalize on the niche market of people who have spent their entire lives not knowing what an actual lime tastes like. Those sad bastards are still none the wiser, which h...

Watch These Fools Try To Shove A Gigantic Sofa Into A Very Tiny Car
Seriously though, what the hell was ever the plan here?...

A Compilation Of People Fucking Up The Ice Bucket Challenge
My thoughts on the ice bucket challenge are complicated and not worth going into here. My thoughts on people falling down, bashing themselves over the head, and otherwise harming and embarrassing themselves are much simpler: I am staunchly pro-slapstick. ...

Cop Gets Pushy With Rockies Bro; Rockies Bro Becomes American Hero
The temptation is to say there are no winners here, what with the cop getting needlessly pushy and the bro trying to summon James Madison from his grave with his slurring bluster about injustice. But you know what? Fuck this. We're on Team Bro here....

Nobody Has Ever Pimped A Home Run As Hard As This Guy Did
This was uploaded on YouTube a long time ago, but we've never seen it before, and we feel the need to share it with all of you....

The Many, Many Talents Of UCLA's Brilliant Kyle Anderson
Kyle Anderson learned to walk three days shy of his first birthday. That same day, his father reports, he began playing basketball. This sweet story is most likely an old crock of beans simmering on the family stove, but it does get at what makes the UCLA sophomore so special: He plays like a natura...

The 2014 Hater's Guide To The Oscars
Oh hey, the Oscars are on Sunday night! And congratulations to America’s celebrities for enduring another painfully long and arduous awards season. YOU POOR THINGS! Being shuttled from red carpet to red carpet, forced to wear nice clothes, asked the same dumb questions over and over again (“How’s...

Fuck You, "You Sexy Thing"
There were a lot of shitty Super Bowl ads last night. Spending $4 million on an ad means that most companies and ad agencies are too scared to allow one person to have a single vision of what the ad should be, and thus you get a 30 second gangbang of styles of tones and terrible jokes and unwanted ...

Craig James Is A Christian Martyr, According To Craig James
After a disastrous senate run, Craig James landed himself a gig at Fox Sports Southwest—for all of one show before being dumped. Officially, the higher-ups at Fox were caught by surprise by the regional network’s hire of the all-around toxic James, and he was tossed out before any deal was official....
