The Sports Highlight Of The Day Is This Highly Dedicated Referee
Good wrestling referees will not hesitate to contort their body in whatever ways will afford them the best view of the action on the mat. You have to be locked in, and you have to commit. As this referee demonstrates, that means you sometimes have to motor across the mat like a damn skink....

How Not To Make Coffee
How you make coffee is, you bring the dried and roasted and probably ground seeds of a Coffea plant together with some water, typically hot, for some period of time, and this turns the water into coffee. That’s it. It is not a complicated procedure....
The Sports Highlight Of The Day Is This Maryland Fan's Refusal To Lose At Musical Chairs
In a game of musical chairs, what do you do if someone gets to the last chair before you? Do you try to remove them from the chair, or do you, as this Maryland basketball fan did, remove the chair from them?...
John Fox Challenge Turns Bears First-And-Goal Into Turnover
Another frustrating NFL rule is starting to assert itself. After the Jets got screwed out of a touchdown last month, the “fumble at the pylon” ruling reared its head again on a run from the Bears’ Benny Cunningham....
Mike Hoffman Skips The Puck Past Jonathan Bernier For A Truly Freakish Goal
I think I’ll be giving Ottawa’s Mike Hoffman way too much credit if I imply in any way that he knew what he was doing here. But even if his goal yesterday against the Colorado Avalanche in Stockholm, Sweden was a complete accident, it’s still something I’ve never seen before....
Report: UF Wanted To Combat White Supremacist Rally With Tim Tebow<em></em>
The University of Florida tried to parry hateful dork Richard Spencer’s recent speaking appearance with a call for unity in the form of a video featuring famous alumni, according to emails obtained by the Huffington Post.

Building A Pro Wrestling Hall Of Fame Is A Lot Easier Said Than Done
In traditional competitive sports, the question of what makes a hall of famer, while fodder for heated arguments, is relatively straightforward. While there is always context that can be added, who the best players are is a largely statistical matter. In professional wrestling, it’s completely diffe...
West Ham Set To Give David Moyes Another Chance To Fail
West Ham, despite having no reason to, have sucked for the better part of a year now. Because of this, today they’ve finally decided to fire manager Slaven Bilić. Probably a smart move. What probably isn’t a smart move is entrusting this squad of very talented attackers to David Moyes, an old, stodg...
The Giants Gave Up A Touchdown On Third And 33
It doesn’t get any easier for a defense than third and 33. Play as conservative as possible, keep everyone in front of you, and there’s no way the offense should be able to gain all they need....
Clayton Kershaw's Quotes About Postseason Failure Are Killing Me
The narrative of Clayton Kershaw’s playoff failure was always something bigger and more intense than it had any logical right to be.

The Dodgers Had Their Shots
There’s always a postmortem. Where did they go wrong? What should they have done differently? Analyzing a game—a baseball game, a World Series Game 7—is like dwelling on any other thing in the past: It’s in a fixed state. It happened, it’s not changing, and at some point you swallow it and move on....
George Springer Was The Start Of Something Great
In the home run-hittingest postseason in baseball history, 24 of the Astros’ 27 dingers were hit by their own homegrown players. This championship doesn’t happen without all the miserable seasons required for a run of high draft picks, but even that doesn’t tell the story—the baseball draft is notor...
The Astros Have Their First World Series Title
In a rather anticlimactic ending that wasn’t exactly befitting a pretty thrilling series, the Houston Astros claimed their first World Series title in franchise history with a 5-1 victory over the Los Angeles Dodgers in tonight’s Game 7. ...
Dodgers Dead? Situation Rapidly Developing
Starting pitcher Yu Darvish lasted five outs and allowed five runs. Manager Dave Roberts turned to—who else—Brandon Morrow to replace him. The Dodgers entered the bottom of the second losing 5-0 to the Astros....
