Phil Mushnick: Donald Sterling Was Lynched
Look, is there anything even worth saying about this? New York Post hack Phil Mushnick, as we've previously reminded you, is a race-baiting troll whose job is basically to come as close to just filing a column consisting of the word "moulignan" written out 800 times as he can without getting fired. ...

Awful Man Snatches Souvenir Baseball Away From Little Kid
Perhaps there will come a day when adults will stop stealing baseballs away from kids, but this is not that day. This dude right here is shameless, and has obviously never consulted this handy chart. Behavior like this is only acceptable if you are stealing a ball from this awful Australian kid....
Reporter Asks Patrick Kane "Was That Your First Overtime Game-Winner?"
Patrick Kane scored 11 minutes into tonight's overtime and helped Chicago even their series against the Blues 2-2. Afterward, a reporter asked him if it was the first time he'd ever scored a game-winning goal in overtime....
Colin Cowherd Is Never Going To Stop Talking About John Wall
WDRB's Rick Bozich wrote a column on Monday in which he recalled the time ferret-faced radio huckster Colin Cowherd went on the air and essentially called John Wall a nigger. Bozich was critical of Cowherd, which led to Cowherd going on the air today and once again fucking that chicken....
Marathon Runners Carrying Competitor Across Finish Line? Didn't Happen.

This Oilers Fan Is Fed Up With Everything
The Oilers missed the playoffs for the eighth consecutive year. They finished dead last in the Pacific and only the Panthers and Sabres had fewer points in the entire league. This is what being a sports fan can do to a person. It can make you throw a personal item at a building. ...
This Is The Worst Baseball Column
This has to be a joke, it just has to be. Either it's a joke, or the The Batavia Daily News mistakenly published a Scott DeSmit article on sabermetrics from 2003. There can be no other explanation for this lede: "[c]omputers have ruined baseball and 'Sports Illustrated.'" ...

Harold Reynolds Announces Revolutionary Findings In Physics
As Yasiel Puig and Josh Hamilton recently found out, sliding into first base is a dumb idea.
