Brandon Crawford's Grand Slam Silences Pittsburgh Crowd
Supporting their team to the fullest, Pittsburgh Pirates fans have been very loud the entire NL Wild Card play-in game. So loud that they almost managed to cause a second inning drop in the outfield when Giants Joe Panik and Hunter Pence collided while catching a pop fly. That's what makes this cl...
Watch High School Football Player Shrug Off Tacklers Like Gnats
Punt returns for touchdowns have a certain formulaic quality to them. The blindingly fast return man catches the punt, perhaps breaks a tackle, and then weaves his way downfield into the end zone. As uncommon as they may be, if you've seen one you've seen them all....
Can A Ref With No Red Card Send Someone Off? One Player Investigates
It’s an interesting question, one that Guingamp’s Benjamin Angoua tried valiantly to answer this weekend when, as the ref tried to show a red to a teammate, Angoua nipped and slapped at the card, hoping the ref would either listen to reason or get tired of trying to snatch the damn thing out of the ...
UMass Video Board Falls Over During Third Quarter
UMass took on Bowling Green in its first game on-campus in three years today, and it would appear they haven't worked out all the kinks yet. Early in the third quarter, the video board fell over. Unfortunately, there's no video of the actual fall, but we can see the board hanging limp in the afterma...
Here Are Nine Full Yards Of Washington Huskies Defensive Failure
From the nine-yard-line to the goal line, Stanford receiver Ty Montgomery is in contact with Washington Huskies. And not just contact. He's pretty thoroughly wrapped up....
Razorbacks Punter Shows SEC Speed In Scoring On Fake Punt

Jacoby Brissett Refuses To Be Tackled; Puts FSU On Upset Alert

Todd Gurley Styles All Over The Tennessee Defense
Tennessee did a respectable job of hanging with Georgia today, before succumbing in a 35-32 defeat. Bulldogs running back Todd Gurley, however, could hardly be contained. In addition to one flying-over-the-line touchdown, Gurley added this masterpiece to his Heisman candidacy, breaking multiple tack...
Middle School Football Team Scores On "The Ugly Kardashian" Play
Lewis and Clark Middle School owned Thomas Jefferson Middle with this trick play. Called "The Ugly Kardashian," for no apparent reason other than the team found the name funny, Lewis and Clark's quarterback Atiq Muhammad pretends there's a problem with the ball, capitalizing on some confusion after ...
Pass Attempt Blocked By Field Goal Post
If you had to guess which team in the TCU/SMU game was going to author an embarrassing highlight, you'd have guessed SMU, because they have been outscored this season 146-12....

Alleged Striker Fails To Score Easiest Goal Ever
Philipp Hofmann of Kaiserslautern could've done anything else with the ball here and scored. He could've barely tapped it in almost any direction and it would've gone in. He could've tripped over in his wind-up and his face would've bungled it in. His only job was not to do exactly what he did....
Mike Moustakas Catches Woman's Face Instead Of Foul Ball
One of the best things about baseball is that fans sit precisely zero feet away from the field. It's not great because fans get to watch the action from up close (though that's pretty cool too), but because fans get to be part of the action. That's what happened to this poor Indians fan in Wednesday...
Liverpool Defeat Middlesbrough 14-13 On Penalties
Yes, the headline is accurate. Liverpool defeated Championship side Middlesbrough 14-13 on penalties Tuesday to advance to the fourth round of the League Cup. Liverpool took leads of 1-0 and 2-1 but were pegged back twice, the second time in the 123rd minute of play after Kolo Touré's ill-advised ta...
Josh Donaldson Turns Bad Play Into Cool-As-Hell Play
Oakland A's third baseman Josh Donaldson, who is great, has been doing some real dope shit lately. On Sunday night, he hit a walk-off homer in the tenth inning, and last night he turned in one of the best defensive plays we've seen all year....

Peyton Manning came roaring back—with the help of his receivers—to score a game-tying touchdown with 18 seconds left against the Seahawks....
DeSean Jackson Scores 81-Yard Touchdown, Taunts Former Team
As you may have heard, DeSean Jackson played for the Philadelphia Eagles for six seasons before he was rather unceremoniously released by the team in the offseason, and Eagles fans were none too pleased to see him return to Philly today. But Jackson just housed a long, game-tying touchdown on his fo...
