The Miami Dolphins Offense Drops 28 On The Bills In The First Half
This is not a season highlights package. This is a first-half-against-the-bills highlights package. This is noteworthy because the Dolphins have scored over 28 points only once this year. They put up 31 against the Kansas City Chiefs two weeks ago. It looks like that poor kid may have been wrong....

The MLS Goal Of The Year Is Incredible For Any League
Remember the name Darlington Nagbe: it's a wonderful name. But also because the Liberian-born, Ohio-raised midfielder was the second overall pick in this year's MLS draft, and scored his first career goal for Portland on this amazing juggle and volley in July. Today it was named the MLS Goal of th...

Here's Stanford's Gabriel Harris Calmly Sinking A 65-Foot Buzzer-Beater
Stanford guard Gabriel Harris averaged fewer than two points a game last season, but here he is topping that average with one shot—a 2/3 court buzzer-beater to bring the Cardinal within two at the half of their home bout against Colorado State. It was a much-needed boost for Stanford, who were dow...

Nyjer Morgan Was On The Red Carpet For The L.A. <i>Twilight</i> Premiere Last Night
Nyjer Morgan—or his alter-ego Tony Plush, depending on your take—is a tremendous weirdo. He flies kites when he gets prompted by his Twitter followers. He gives interviews in character. He might actually be a little bit insane. And to add to the tally: he appears to be a legitimate fan of the Twilig...

TMZ's Photo Of "Jerry Sandusky" Eating Donuts At The Airport Was Just Of Some Old Guy Eating Donuts At The Airport
Here's the release, and zealously watermarked photo, we got in the afternoon from the good folks at TMZ:...

Yesterday: The Greatest Catch That Never Officially Happened Of The NFL Season
There hasn't been much to be happy about recently in Kansas City, save Todd Haley's beard. Yesterday the Chiefs lost to Tim Tebow, who completed but two passes all day, and his third-string running back, Lance Ball....

The Dejected Faces Of Mark Sanchez
The great battle for AFC East supremacy last night turned into somewhat of a Patriots blowout and a game that was not all that much fun to watch. The one thing that did bring great joy was the body language of Mark Sanchez, whose moods ranged from misery to dejection to bike-pedaling, sisyphean ex...

Teams Should Probably Stop Punting To Devin Hester
The Detroit Lions brought in a new punter this week and apparently no one gave him the memo that Devin Hester is really good at returning punts. Robert Malone made the mistake of kicking it in Hester's vicinity and, well, you can see what happens from there....

Dez Bryant Sends Jim Nantz Into Hysterics With Great Touchdown Grab
Dez Bryant ripped this pass right out of the hands of Leodis McKelvin and scored the Cowboys first touchdown of the day. It is unclear whether a CBS intern was required to get a new pair of underwear for Jim Nantz. We are following up....

Watch Jarius Wright Make A Catch That Defines Ridiculous
There really are no words to describe Arkansas Razorback Jarius Wright's catch in the first half tonight against Tennessee, except "concentration." Even though he can't even see the ball for half of the play, he seems to know exactly where it is and how to come down with it cleanly. This is sick....

LaVar Arrington Speaks At Penn State Candlelight Vigil
"We are Penn State. That'll never change. ... Understand this is really a call to duty." That, courtesy of Andy Staples. Arrington was one of several to speak at the candlelight vigil organized by Penn State students in the wake of the havoc Sandusky, et al. have wrecked....

Swedish Hockey Player Snaps Stick On Breakaway, Improbably Scores Anyway
Jonte Berg is a winger for Västerås, in the second-highest tier of Swedish hockey. As he got set on a breakaway last night against Malmö , the last thing on his mind was that his stick might snap. After the stick broke, the last thing on his mind was that a Malmö defender would kick it into the ne...

LeBron Dunks, Mean Mugs, Refuses Lady's High-Five
LeBron played in Rudy Gay's charity all-star game just outside of Memphis last night. He scored 43 points and, as he tends to do, made no new friends at the DeSoto Civic Center in Southaven, Miss. There might be a lockout underway, but worry not, heathens: Together, we will still find ways to mock...

Here's Chad McGhee With Your Weekly Knox City Greyhounds Update
Part of Chad McGhee feels bad for the kids on a Paint Creek Pirates football team that got 45-ruled by the mighty Knox City Greyhounds on the first play of the third quarter Friday night. This is likely because Chad is riding the joylightning of a 46-0 victory which clinched a playoff berth for th...
