Kentucky Breakfast Stout: The Most Important Meal Of The Day
Saturday morning, my wife and I woke up without any particular plan, unless you count the plan to go the art museum, which my wife did in fact count due to the fact that I had agreed to the plan 18 hours earlier, but funny things happen to plans sometimes. So there we were, blissfully plan-free for ...
Notre Dame Beats South Carolina On Late Jumper For Championship Berth
Notre Dame has booked its ticket to the championship game thanks to a clutch rebound and jumper from Madison Cable. ...
The Many Emotions Of Vince Neil, Professional Football Team Owner
Mötley Crüe frontman Vince Neil owns an Arena Football League franchise, and his Las Vegas Outlaws earned their first win ever with a 70-53 victory against Arizona last night. ESPN’s cameras couldn’t keep away from ol’ Vince, and here’s a supercut of his emotions as the game progressed—set to the ...
Ryan Johansen Scores The Chillest Shootout Goal You'll See
Ryan Johansen’s signature shootout move is ... to not make any move at all! It sounds like something somebody came up with while high, but it really works. Johansen is 6 of 10 in shootouts this year, and he pulled the same thing three weeks ago too: ...
Former Bucs GM: We Spied On Justin Blackmon's Favorite Bar For A Week
I rolled my eyes at the claim that an unnamed NFL team had shadowed Jameis Winston on a flight—surely lots of teams had scouts flying into and out of Indianapolis around the combine. But maybe it’s not so crazy. Former Tampa GM Mark Dominik admitted that in 2012, the Buccaneers dispatched a scout to...
Hold On, Jim Caldwell Went For The Most 4th Downs Last Year?
Football Outsiders published its Aggressiveness Index results yesterday, and came back with a very weird result. Jim Caldwell went for a shitload of fourth downs....
Watch Vince Neil Coke-Fart All Over The National Anthem
Former Mötley Crüe frontman Vince Neil sang the "Star Spangled Banner" at a recent Las Vegas Outlaws AFL game, because he is a part owner of the team, or something. The details aren't important. What's important is hoooooooly shit, Vince Neil is fucking smacked in this video! No sober man has ever...
How Those 3-on-3 Overtime Rules Would Cut Down NHL Shootouts
The NHL general managers are having their annual meetings this week and for the second year in a row they are discussing rule changes to decrease the number of games that are resolved by a shootout. The particular ideas they're tossing around—centered around adopting a 3-on-3 overtime—stand a very g...
The NFL Holds Roger Goodell In Higher Regard Than President Obama
SB Nation's Eric Sollenberger has been hanging out at South by Southwest this week, and he attended a panel called "Now Athletes are Funny: Power of Comedy and Sports." One of the panelists speaking was Adam Richenbach, an executive producer at Funny Or Die Sports who, as Sollenberger tells it, shar...
Don Lemon Is Great At His Job
Last night, Don Lemon took to his show, CNN Tonight, to host a discussion of, as he put it, The N-Word. It wasn't the first time he'd done so; nearly two years ago, he devoted an entire special to this topic. Famously, note cards were used, and the question of whether the words "cracker" and "nigger...
16 American Stouts, Ranked
Last Friday afternoon, I had the nerve to step away from my desk for as long as it takes to microwave a Hot Pocket and contemplate my sins, and Deadspin took advantage of those three unchaperoned minutes to damn near burn the place to the ground by running a piece with the title "Stouts Are The Be...
L.A. Police Chase Results In Live, Televised Gunfight
A man police say is suspected of kidnapping led Los Angeles officers on a chase through south L.A. before stepping out of his car and firing a handgun at cops—before taking a barrage of return fire and seeking cover. All four Los Angeles major network affiliates covered the battle live—despite polic...
Purdue's Rapheal Davis Dives For Loose Ball, Takes Out Gregg Doyel
Purdue guard Rapheal Davis jumped into press row for a loose basketball during today's game against Penn State, and ended up knocking over a bunch of electronics and Gregg Doyel of the Indianapolis Star. Everyone was fine, so if you want to guiltlessly enjoy Doyel falling on his ass, here you go....

Welcome to Ask an Indie-Rock Dude About Sports, our new occasional feature where we sit down with a luminary from that particular musical universe and chat about the fandoms and competition that helped shape him or her as a person and an artist. It was a very specific time—somewhere around the s...
Alpine Beer Is Run By Greedy Sell-Outs, Thank God
Last night I played a justifiably obscure game called "sober darts in the basement of an American Legion post." I do not recommend the experience. Darts is a game best played at least slightly buzzed, and ideally quite drunk. But every now and then I have to force myself through a dry Tuesday night,...
And Now, The World’s Most Terrifyingly Inappropriate <i>Minecraft</i> Videos
Last week, I took a moment to explain why Minecraft, the world's biggest video game, sucks hard balls. And in my "research" for that post (five minutes), I found a number of Minecraft recreations of 9/11 over on YouTube. All of these tributes are misguided at best and tasteless at worst …...
South African Reporter Mugged On Camera
Vuyo Mvoko of SABC News was preparing for an on-the-scene report in Johannesburg when three goons walked up to him and his film crew and took all their stuff....
Little Russian Soccer Kid Gets Shit Wrecked When Big Coach Kicks Him
Sure, Russia may have their own standards for coaching, child-rearing, and acceptable levels of violence in sports, but a grown man molly-whopping one of his charges right on the pitch, then barking at him to get back in the game has to cross some kind of threshold....
Massive Brawl At Women's Basketball Game Results In 15 Suspensions
The Texas Southern and Southern University women's basketball teams brawled during a game on Saturday night, resulting in a double forfeit of the game and 15 suspensions. Yesterday, video of the brawl was posted by the The Advocate, and Texas Southern announced that it was withdrawing the women's ...
Rutgers-Michigan Interrupted By Brief Power Outage
The lights went out for about ten seconds at the Crisler Center in Ann Arbor (Mich.) today, temporarily halting a thrilling contest between the 14-15 Wolverines and 10-20 Scarlet Knights. After a short delay, everything was declared all good and play resumed. If only this had been a Temple versus Ri...
