Jagr Old
Via James Duthie, a photo from the vaults. 1998. Jaromir Jagr was already a nine-year NHL veteran. The young man on the left, 10 years old, is the nephew of Dan Kesa, then Jagr's Pittsburgh teammate. His name is Milan Lucic....
Here's Rick Reilly On CNN Tonight Saying "Pimps Up, Hoes Down, Ass Up, Nose Down"
Rick Reilly dropped by CNN tonight to talk about who-gives-a-shit, and for some reason elected to give a performance of vile human being/alleged musician Chris Brown's music. It went as well as you think it would!...
Here's Kevin Ware Holding His Team's Regional Championship Trophy While Recovering In The Hospital
After last night's victory, Kevin Ware's teammates went to visit him in the hospital, and they brought the regional championship trophy along with them. We hope Ware actually remembers the moment, given the amount of painkillers he was probably on....
Kevin Ware Suffered Maybe The Most Gruesome Injury In The History Of Televised Sports [WARNING: VERY GROSS]
Louisville's Kevin Ware suffered what appears to be a compound fracture of both the tibia and fibula in the first half of the Cardinals' Midwest regional final bout against Duke. The injury led to a ten-minute delay in the action and is one of the most difficult things to watch, ever....
The Eight Most Groan-Worthy Lines In <em>GI Joe: Retaliation</em>
GI Joe: Retaliation is pretty bad. You don't need me to tell you that. It's not completely horrible: There's a cool sequence involving ninjas fighting each other during an avalanche, one special effects scene has London blowing up real awesome-like, and The Rock continues to be the one consistent ac...
What The Hell: Jarome Iginla Traded To Penguins
We went to bed thinking Jarome Iginla was going to be a Bruin. Nearly every single rumor had the 17-year vet heading to Boston, and when Iginla was a healthy scratch for Calgary's late-night game, it seemed a fait accompli. The sun rises to find Iginla in black and gold, but without the Bruins' spok...
<em>Room 237</em> Will Make You Love <em>The Shining</em> All Over Again
One of the saddest things about the death of a favorite filmmaker is realizing that you'll probably never see any new movie from him ever again. When popular musicians die, they always leave material lying around that their estates can spruce up and put out for the fans. (Jimi Hendrix died in 1970, ...
Ryan Lochte Is Getting A Reality Show And It Looks So Dumb
Reality TV is inherently shitty, so it's hard to judge Olympic gold medalist and über-bro Ryan Lochte too harshly for laying What Would Ryan Lochte Do? at our feet. A guy's gotta do what he can to stay relevant these days. ...

Well this isn't something you see every day....
Cal Breaks Out Rarely-Seen <i>Three Stooges</i> Defensive Scheme
Must have worked, Cal upset the No. 5 seed, UNLV 64-61....
Your NCAA Most Painful Moment Is Bryce Dejean-Jones Saving A Ball Right Into Allen Crabbe's Junk
We've seen some rough injuries already in today's hoops cornucopia (Michigan star Trey Burke, even, missed some action after a tumble) but nothing of the sort that makes (male) viewers wince in pain like what happened early in Cal's game against UNLV....
Here's How To Avoid Commercials When Watching The Games Online
Ugh—never say those bastards at the NCAA aren't canny. The otherwise useful March Madness Live website, which allows you to watch every game, so long as you have a proper cable or satellite subscriber login, bans the viewer from switching games during commercials. More than once already today, I hav...
Hanley Ramirez Is The Latest Star To Get Injured In The WBC
The Dominican Republic beat Puerto Rico 3-0 last night, to become the first non-Japanese team to win the World Baseball Classic. That's great for them (these fans sure were pleased), but the regular season is 11 days away, and yet another MLB star could find himself on the shelf come the games that ...
Tigers Woods And Lindsey Vonn Are Facebook Official
The high school cafeteria jock table nearly flipped over in pent-up anticipation today, when Tiger Woods and Lindsey Vonn—sports' 218th-hottest couple—made their relationship Facebook official. ...

The Kind Of Trash You Love: <em>Spring Breakers</em>, Reviewed.
1. Spring Breakers is trashy: I'm not telling you something you don't know here. It's self-consciously trashy, but not in any sort of wry, ironic, removed way. It dives headfirst into its trash, wallowing in it, wringing it for every last drop of slime. This is a nothing movie about nothing people d...
Stan Lee Wants Pole Dancing To Be An Olympic Event
Stan Lee, film's Willie Lumpkin, has a suggestion for the tight asses in charge of the Olympics. Wanna get rid of wrestling? Good! Makes room for pole dancing. It's "like the sexiest gymnastics of all...look how everybody loves pole dancers!" Just when you think he's just a creepy old guy talking ...
Off To See A Snoozer. <em>Oz, The Great and Powerful</em>, Reviewed.
1. The notion of doing a prequel to The Wizard of Oz focused on Oz himself isn't an inherently terrible idea. The wizard, after all, is the one character in that story who's neither completely good nor bad; he's full of shit, sure, but he also means well for Oz and ultimately tries to grant everybod...
