Sunderland Defender's Exquisite Volley Makes For Wonderful Own Goal
Above, Sunderland's Santiago Vergini shows off some impressive technical ability as he takes a bouncing ball and cracks it past the keeper. It would've been worthy of his personal highlight reel, if it hadn't been aimed at his own net. But for an own goal, this was a beaut....
Lululemon's Buffalo Store Taunts Fans With "Wide Right/No Goal"
Being a Buffalo sports fan can be pretty depressing. The Bills are, at best, mediocre and remain the only franchise to lose four Super Bowls in a row while winning zero. The Sabres offer little relief, having also won zero championships and promising to be one of the worst teams in the NHL this seas...
Diego Costa's Targeting System Is On The Fritz
Diego Costa's scored nine goals so far this year for Chelsea, but has yet to find the net for his adoptive country of Spain. He had the perfect opportunity to do it against Luxembourg at today's Euro 2016 qualifier, but somehow put the ball, uh, really wide of the target. Blame it on server lag....
Great Moments In Pass Defending, Brought To You By The Buffalo Bills
Yeah, that's probably pass interference. ...

Wake Up!
It's Saturday. College GameDay is in Oxford. SEC Nation is in Starkville. (There's probably soccer being played somewhere, too.) The rest of your Saturday crew will be here shortly. ...
Blowouts Have Gotten Worse In Non-Conference NCAA Football Games
If you thought early-season college football games have gotten more boring over the years, you might be onto something. Analysis from the Wall Street Journal shows blowouts have become more common for ranked college football teams in non-conference games....
Can A Ref With No Red Card Send Someone Off? One Player Investigates
It’s an interesting question, one that Guingamp’s Benjamin Angoua tried valiantly to answer this weekend when, as the ref tried to show a red to a teammate, Angoua nipped and slapped at the card, hoping the ref would either listen to reason or get tired of trying to snatch the damn thing out of the ...
UMass Video Board Falls Over During Third Quarter
UMass took on Bowling Green in its first game on-campus in three years today, and it would appear they haven't worked out all the kinks yet. Early in the third quarter, the video board fell over. Unfortunately, there's no video of the actual fall, but we can see the board hanging limp in the afterma...

If you didn't watch UCLA wallop Arizona State last night, here is the game in its entirety:...
Alleged Striker Fails To Score Easiest Goal Ever
Philipp Hofmann of Kaiserslautern could've done anything else with the ball here and scored. He could've barely tapped it in almost any direction and it would've gone in. He could've tripped over in his wind-up and his face would've bungled it in. His only job was not to do exactly what he did....
Mike Moustakas Catches Woman's Face Instead Of Foul Ball
One of the best things about baseball is that fans sit precisely zero feet away from the field. It's not great because fans get to watch the action from up close (though that's pretty cool too), but because fans get to be part of the action. That's what happened to this poor Indians fan in Wednesday...
Michigan State Beats EMU So Badly They Forget How To Play Football
Earlier, we brought you a halftime update from a very uncompetitive intrastate matchup between Eastern Michigan and Michigan State. It seems the beating got into the Eagles' heads, as at one point the center forgot to snap the ball entirely....
Braves Fan Catches Foul Ball With Face
See, this is why grown ass men should bring gloves to baseball games. When the foul ball comes your way—like it did to this unfortunate Braves fan at Turner Field—you are going to try and catch it. And if you are going to try and catch it, shouldn't you have the proper tool to do so? If not, you'r...
