Heat Shoot Themselves In Foot With Dumbest Possible Play, Lose By One
Down one with 40 seconds left, the Heat should've had two possessions to win the ballgame. Instead, Norris Cole accidentally inbounded the ball when he was really just trying to throw it to Hassan Whiteside so that he could inbound it. Cole ended up getting the ball exactly where he wanted, but for ...
High School Coach Misses Alley-Oop, Breaks Backboard At Pep Rally
There was a pep rally at River Ridge High School in Woodstock (Ga.), and it was certainly more exciting than any pep rally I ever attended. A boys basketball team assistant coach tried to pump the crowd up with a sweet (on an eight-foot hoop) alley-oop dunk and, well, I'll just let you watch....

Stop Trying To Convince Yourselves Seattle's Pass Call Wasn't Stupid
On Sunday, the Seattle Seahawks made a grievously bad playcall, and Malcolm Butler won the Super Bowl for the Patriots, and millions of football-watching Americans reeled in reflexive disbelief at the sheer boneheadedness on display....
Seahawks Fan Probably Still Catatonic
Earlier, I wrote that if Russell Wilson can get over one of the most heartbreaking losses in Super Bowl history, Seahawks fans probably can too. That does not apply to this girl. She may never recover....
The Denver Nuggets Are A Burning Clown Car Plunging Into A Gorge
The Denver Nuggets have lost 10 of their last 11 games; last night, they trailed the putrid 76ers by as many as 28 points before cobbling together enough dignity to make the final score look competitive. They're 19-30 at the moment, 11th in the stacked West, and 8.5 games out of the final playoff s...
Listen To Pete Carroll And Tom Brady React To Game-Ending Interception
Inside the NFL aired last night, and among those mic'd up were Seahawks coach Pete Carroll and Patriots QB Tom Brady. And let's just cut to the part we all came for: the noises each made when Malcolm Butler picked off Russell Wilson to steal the championship for New England....
Russell Wilson Thought He Had It
You look at it again and again, on video taken from the field, in a still image from above, and you still can't quite grasp how it played out the way it did. Ricardo Lockette seemed wide open. Russell Wilson, his view screened by Brandon Browner standing up Jermaine Kearse (an absolutely vital condi...
What In The World Was DeMarcus Cousins Thinking On This Inbounds?
Did he think he was on offense? Did he think the Warriors were shooting on the other basket? Did he think the ball was being inbounded from behind him? Did he think he was guarding somebody who hadn't yet walked onto the court? Sometimes players make the wrong decision on defense, or react too slo...

NBC Director Cut Away From Ball-Pooping Celebration To Protect Us
On Sunday, Doug Baldwin celebrated his touchdown to put the Seahawks up 24-14 by pooping the football. (Seattle never scored again. Curse of the poopball? Hmmmm.) Only, the dozens of millions of people watching at home never saw it, because NBC abruptly cut away....
Chris Pratt Photobombed Super Bowl Fans With A Sandwich Dick
Jimmy Fallon roped Chris Pratt and Chris Evans into a goofy bit where they snuck around and photobombed Super Bowl fans on some sort of red carpet. The results are actually pretty funny, but no moment was more inspired than Pratt busting out the sandwich dick. The sandwich dick always plays....
Last Night's Clippers-Nets Game Set A Record For Free Throw Futility
If you were fortunate enough to be in attendance at Barclays Center for last evening's Clippers-Nets matchup, you witnessed history. The two teams combined to miss 27 of their 43 free throws, which set an all-time NBA record for failure at the charity stripe. We're pulling a deep cut for this one, w...
Pete Carroll Denies Reports That He Changed Seahawks' Final Play
Pete Carroll, who subscribes to one of the more explosive conspiracy theories out there, categorically denies any truth to the conspiracy theory that the Seahawks' desire to make a Super Bowl hero out of Russell Wilson and not Marshawn Lynch led him to overrule the fateful playcall....
