Notice More Things
Eye fatigue from fixing your gaze on a lurid screen. Back cricks from the bad chair. Shivering from too much air-conditioning. Perfect numbness to the surroundings amid which you’ve spent far too many of your hours. You could wile away all your vacation days just counting all the ways it is possible...
A "Vodka Diet Coke" Is Not A Cocktail
Earlier today, during an interview game of “73 Questions,” a faceless reporter from Vogue asked famous robot Taylor Swift what her favorite cocktail is. The Diet Coke brand ambassador said it’s a “vodka Diet Coke,” which is a drink that can indeed exist by way of mixing the ingredients found in its ...

Brewers Pitcher Will Smith Tore His Knee While Trying To Take Off His Shoes
Spring training is the worst time for a ballplayer to get injured, but for some reason, every spring training injury happens to be a very dumb injury. Last year, we had Michael Saunders stepping on a sprinkler head and tearing his meniscus, Scooter Gennett cutting his finger on a stray shampoo bottl...

Notre Dame Tip-In Ruins Everything
Our bodies were ready. Stephen F. Austin’s late five-point lead left the sportswriting world dreaming of four days full of “STONE COLD!” references and Attitude-Era GIFs celebrating the Lumberjacks becoming just the third 14-seed ever to make the Sweet Sixteen.

How Many Plumlee Siblings Can You Name?
The thing about the Plumlees is that there are so many of them, and the other thing about them is that all their names start with the letter “M.” A Plumlee who will remain unnamed right now is taking on Yale today, so, to get you ready, we prepared a quiz.

About That Distraught Thunder Fan Video
We’ve been sent the above video—purporting to be of a Thunder fan rightfully panicking over Steph Curry having the ball in his hands at the end of Saturday’s thriller—a few times now, so let’s nip it in the bud: it’s hilarious but it’s not real. The real one is even better....
<i>Fox Sports Live</i> Relaunches; Spends Most Of Time Mocking Show's Low Ratings
Fox Sports 1 relaunched Fox Sports Live tonight in hopes a revamped format might spark the highlight show’s inexplicably bad ratings.

FS1 Host Dan O’Toole Blasts Fox Sports For Layoffs
Somewhere along the line, Fox realized that Fox Sports 1 can’t (and maybe shouldn’t) compete with ESPN at its own game, and instead decided to court that silent-but-significant minority of sports fans: reactionary, regressive, and crypto- and not-so-crypto-racist. For a hundred years or more, this w...
Cristiano Ronaldo Should Probably Stop Hitting People
Hey, Cristiano, how’s it going? Good? That’s good to hear. I didn’t want anything, just checking in. Saw yesterday’s game. Kind of a bummer, drawing like that against Real Betis.

RGIII Cleaned Out His Locker And Left Behind An Overwrought Goodbye Note
