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?...

The Lesson Of Black Monday: Your NFL Team Doesn't Know What It's Doing
Yesterday was Black Monday in the NFL. My team's coach got fired. Your team's coach got fired. EVERYONE'S coach got fired. If six Fortune 500 CEOs were all shitcanned on the same day, the markets would crash; there'd be barricades in the streets by noon. But it's a telling sign of football cultu...

Here's Your Black Monday NFL Firings Roundup
Black Monday is off to a roaring start this year. We're here for blood, and there's plenty of it. Here's your running tally of all the coaches who have been axed today....

Report: Mike Shanahan Was Near-Obsessive With RG3's Media Availability
Mike Shanahan is most likely done as Washington's head coach after today's game, which means this is an opportune time to talk anonymously about him. It seems that many people inside the Skins organization took advantage of that....

How Much Will Mike Trout Get Paid?
Any theoretical negotiation starts from this premise: He is 22 years old, and already the best player in baseball. (And if not for Miguel Cabrera's existence, he'd be the best by far.) We have already accepted that the economics of Mike Trout can't rely on past data, because there's nothing comparab...

MLB Investigates Yankees For Potential Tampering With Mike Trout
This seems like a whole lot of nothing, but we can stand behind anything to make baseball's silly season the sillier. Yesterday, Yankees president Randy Levine had this to say by way of explaining why the team was hesitant to give Robinson Cano too many years:...

Mike Shanahan Admits To Lying To The Media All The Time
Mike Shanahan was a little fired up at his press conference earlier today. That's understandable, considering the monumental shit storm that has descended on the Redskins' season. But the best part of the presser came when Shanahan, with one little admission, crystallized everything that is so dysfu...

RGIII Is A Pawn In The Dan Snyder-Mike Shanahan Standoff
Mike Shanahan is daring Washington to fire him. Dan Snyder has no problems seeing Shanahan go, but not at the cost of the $7 million remaining on his contract for 2014. Caught in the middle of this ugly divorce is poor, innocent, Robert Griffin III. It's always the children who suffer. At least he'l...

Corey Perry Can't Be Stopped
I want to give Corey Perry all the credit in the world for this gorgeous goal-of-the-year candidate, a deking, falling, sliding shot from his knees. But then I remember it comes against the Islanders, who have lost 10 in a row and probably still would have conceded a goal had all of Perry's limbs fa...

Reports: Mike Shanahan's Probably Leaving Washington Soon
You can tell that the Skins are a catastrophe from their 3-9 record, but today's reports reinforce the team's shittiness with the relationships involving owner Dan Snyder, head coach Mike Shanahan, and Robert Griffin III....

How Everyone Screwed Up On Washington's Mistaken First Down
Washington thought they had a first down. The chains moved. The stadium scoreboard said first down. Kyle Shanahan called the next play as if the Skins had a new set of downs. But the one person whose ruling mattered, referee Jeff Triplette, signaled third down. Chaos reigns....

Prof Threatens To Fail Athlete For Missing Class For Championship Game
East Central College is a community college in Missouri that qualified for the NJCAA volleyball national championship tomorrow in Toledo. The ECC Falcons might have to compete without one of their best players, though, because her biology professor won't let her miss class....

Andre Iguodala Leaves Some Rich Dudes Hanging On A High Five
These three dudes were right there after Andre Iguodala's buzzer-beater to beat the Thunder, and they were right there to give Iguodala a giant high five after it happened. Look at their faces. Look at the way two of them follow through after Iguodala turns and walks away. Look at how the dude to th...

Untied Shoelace Leads To Two Great Displays Of Soccer Sportsmanship
After collecting the ball during a match last week in the Saudi Arabian league last week, Al-Nahda goalkeeper Tisir Al-Antaif found his shoelace undone. With his big Hamburger Helper gloves, he couldn't re-tie it himself. So Al-Ittihad's Brazilian striker Jobson bent down to do it for him....

That Time Sherman Douglas Hiked It To Stephen Thompson For A Dunk
College basketball tips off tonight, an occasion that sparks early season memories of preseason NITs and Maui Invitationals and Great Alaska Shootouts past, most especially the night Sherman Douglas and Stephen Thompson did this to Indiana at Madison Square Garden....

Corey Perry Knocked Into Rangers Bench Twice In One Shift
Ryan McDonagh flipped Corey Perry into the Rangers' bench twice in the span of 12 seconds during Monday night's Ducks-Rangers game. What's the saying? Flip me once, shame on you. Flip me twice, my teammates come over to help....

Here's Victor Oladipo Crooning A Bill Withers Song
This is from back in April, but the internet just discovered it because it was tweeted out last night by Shelby Gogreve, the woman on stage with Magic rookie Victor Oladipo, who fancies himself as a singer. The video above is from Indiana University's Spirit of Indiana Showcase. It's Oladipo and G...
