D-League Announcer Fills Broadcast With Wrestling Catchphrases
RJ Choppy is a sports radio yakker in Dallas, Tex., and he also does play-by-play for the local NBA D-League team, the Texas Legends. D-League games are only shown on YouTube, which gives broadcasters a lot of room to screw around, and Choppy took full advantage of that freedom during a recent game ...
Goddamn, Steph Curry Is Amazing
There may not be a better ticket in sports right now than the Golden State Warriors, and that has a lot to do with the fact that Steph Curry is liable to do something that will leave you slack-jawed and drooling on any given night....
Klay Thompson Throws Down Alley-Oop
We haven't even finished the first quarter yet and Warriors-Thunder is already the highlight reel-fest you'd expect when players like Curry, Westbrook, Durant, and Thompson get together on the same court for a (sort of, it's on NBA TV) nationally televised matchup. That being said, a Klay Thompson a...
Jimmy Butler Is A Bad, Bad Man
We already gushed over Jimmy Butler last week so no need to repeat it, but man is he fun to watch. Here he is throwing down a backdoor cut (down the middle of the court) alley-oop, just minutes after he absolutely stuffed James Harden to the ground on an attempted end-of-quarter buzzer beater....

Roy Hibbert's Attempted Game-Winner Was, Um, Not Good
Roy Hibbert's box score from last night's game against the Lakers is nothing to sneeze at—12 points and 11 rebounds in 29 minutes is ...fine—but the Pacers' giant did not end the game on a high note....
Kobe Flips Out Because Jeremy Lin, Rest Of Lakers Are Morons
Kobe Bryant hit a clutch three last night to bring the Lakers within one of the Grizzlies at Staples Center. He did this with 24 seconds remaining in the game, which meant that Los Angeles needed to foul and stop the clock. Jeremy Lin, guarding the Memphis ball-handler, did nothing. So Kobe took mat...
Heroically Lazy DeMarcus Cousins Takes An Entire Possession Off
Honestly, you have to respect the amount of effort DeMarcus Cousins puts into not giving a single shit on this possession. This would make Rasheed Wallace proud....
What Do Ohio State Fans Love To Complain About? An Investigation
This year, Ohio State debuted a new service that allowed fans in the Horseshoe to let stadium officials know about any concerns during games via text message. Loud neighbor? Drunk neighbor? Loud, drunk neighbor? All you had to do was send a message to 69050 addressed to Brutus, the school's grotes...

Newspaper Tweets, Deletes Perfectly Good Aaron Rodgers Penis Joke
The St. Paul Pioneer Press has a quick story on Aaron Rodgers's good-luck charm--the beard of a Lambeau communications technician, which the QB gives a playful li'l fondle during games. Above is how the paper sent it out on Twitter this morning; it was quickly deleted, because Americans just don't a...
The Knicks Just Can't Catch A Break
It's been a nightmare season so far for the New York Knicks, as their 5-28 record places them just in front of the dreadful 76ers at the bottom of the Eastern Conference. Today, the team got more bad news:...
Let The "LeBron Might Leave Us Again!" Freakout Begin
It's funny to consider how quickly things have snowballed for the Cleveland Cavaliers. On Sunday morning, they were a super-talented team that was still figuring things out and waiting to hit their stride. One brutal loss to the Pistons later, and there's talk that head coach David Blatt has lost th...

Man Loses Bet, Puts String Cheese In Aaron Rodgers Jersey In Butt [NSFW]
It is my fiduciary responsibility to alert you to this very NSFW photo of a Bears fan putting a stick of string cheese that is outfitted in a tiny Aaron Rodgers jersey up his butt. The Bears fan—Reddit user /u/mshotts—lost a bet and had to provide photographic evidence of it going up his butt. If yo...
LeBron Can't Finish At The Rim, And It's Sad
As you may have noticed, the Cleveland Cavaliers kind of stink right now, and there are many things—Kevin Love playing some of the worst ball of his career, their extremely leaky defense, an old and shallow bench—one can point to while trying to explain why. But one of the more alarming developments...
The Cavaliers Are Stinking Out The Joint
The Cavs got their asses kicked inside-out by the terrible, terrible Pistons last night, 103-80, in Cleveland. They're 18-12 on the season, 5-5 in their last 10 games, fifth in the woeful Eastern Conference. They stink....
Ndamukong Suh Is Stomping On People Again
Ndamukong Suh has embraced his reputation as the NFL's dirtiest player, and he borrowed from teammate Dominic Raiola's playbook tonight in crushing Aaron Rodgers's leg—the same leg that left the Packers quarterback leaving the field on a cart earlier in the game....
