Ultramarathon Interrupted By Out Of Control Car

Blackhawks Twitter Account Tells Mexican President To Fuck His Mother
Sort of!

Nori Aoki Hit In Dick With Foul Pop
Oh, Nori. Poor, sweet, black-and-blue balled Nori. Days after swinging at a ball aimed at his chest, he took a ball to the dick while trying to track down a pop-up in foul territory. That look of anguish at the very end, oof. Poor guy's had a rough week....

Charles Bronson, Urban Rambo: The Frantic Nihilism Of <em>Death Wish 3</em>

We weren't going to do this, we swear.
