Middle School Basketball Team Loses In Heartbreaking Fashion
These eighth-graders learned a very important lesson yesterday: life isn't remotely fair. If you lose a game because of missing a game-winning shot, okay, but losing because the ball gets stuck on the rim, triggering a jump ball with 0.0 seconds left? That's just cruel. The kid lying on the floor ...
Doug Baldwin Reveals Football-Pooping Celebration Was For Darrelle Revis
Doug Baldwin commemorated his Super Bowl lead-extending touchdown catch by pretending either to poop out the football, or on it. (It's not clear which, but no one saw it anyway; NBC's director cut away in time, warned by the voice of his vigilant dead mother. Thankfully, it was filmed from the stand...
Soccer Player Kicks Ball Directly Into His Own Face, Wins Foul
AC Milan played Empoli to a draw in Serie A today, during which a very hilarious thing transpired that I will now relay to you. Empoli defender Mario Rui was under a little pressure, and tried to escape by popping a bouncing ball over his head. If it worked, I assure you it would've been super coo...
How Players Manage To Scalp Their Super Bowl Tickets
The MMQB's Robert Klemko has a great story about a ticket broker hustling his way through the crazy, somewhat-shady secondary ticket market that sprung up at this year's Super Bowl. There's a lot of good stuff in here, including an answer to the question we've all found ourselves asking: Do players ...
Gronk Catches A Bra, Pretends To Wear It, Signs It For A Fan
Human cloud of hookah smoke Rob Gronkowski did so much Gronk stuff during the Patriots' championship parade that video evidence of his antics are still trickling in almost a week later. In this clip, sent to us by reader Timothy, we see Gronk having a grand ol' time with a bra that someone in the cr...
So, The Wizards Aren't Handling This Slump All That Well
Shit's rough for the Wizards these days, man. After a few months of hanging steady near the top of the East and raking in national praise for their fun young backcourt duo of John Wall and Bradley Beal, they've dumped five in a row, seven of nine, and have been overtaken by the refurbished and newl...
Super Bowl Fighters Fined
Four players have been fined for their roles in the fight at the end of the Super Bowl. Seahawks LB Bruce Irvin, who started things and was ejected from the game, owes $10,000. Michael Bennett, Rob Gronkowski, and Michael Hoomanawanui came in for fines of $8,268 each....
Listen To Patriots' And Seahawks' Reactions To Game-Ending Interception
We saw pieces of this yesterday—Pete Carroll's dismay and Tom Brady's screeching—but here's a fuller picture of the on-field reactions to Malcolm Butler's Super Bowl-winning interception, captured by NFL Films' microphones for "SoundFX."...

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....

That's cold, LeGarrette. Too cold, perhaps....
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...
