Hunter Pence's Dance Moves Are Somehow Less Awkward Than His Batting Stance<em></em>

The Raiders Committed The Most Ever Penalties In One Game And Won
Two weeks ago, with the Oakland Raiders leading the NFL in penalties, head coach Jack Del Rio said that he had “zero tolerance” for unnecessary mistakes by the team.

<i>Person Of Interest</i> Was Anti-Prestige TV And Too Smart For Primetime
First, let me tell you what Person of Interest is. Person of Interest is the inverse of Game of Thrones. For every shock death from the HBO’s version of George R.R. Martin’s book series, it had Kevin Chapman getting maced by a model and beaten up with a handbag. For every Game of Thrones setpiece th...

Report: Yoenis Cespedes To Opt Out Of His Mets Contract
Mets fans got a brief respite from seeing the squad hamstrung by its penny-pinching owners when the team signed Yoenis Cespedes to a three-year, $75 million deal last winter. There was a catch, though, in that the deal came with an opt-out clause after the first season. Now Jon Heyman is reporting t...

Anthony Davis Will Show No Mercy
The Pelicans were supposed to be last year’s surprise Western Conference playoff debutante, but instead, injuries and incompetence stripped them of their chance and they pooped out an utterly forgettable 30-win season. Worst of all, Anthony Davis stagnated, got shut down in March with an injury, and...

Corey Kluber, Goddamn
The Indians have been nigh unbeatable this postseason thanks to a bullpen that’s seemingly incapable of getting roughed up and a propensity for whacking big dingers. They lived up to expectations on both fronts tonight, but they also have Corey Kluber to thank for utterly confounding Cubs hitters al...

Chris Hansen Offers To Build Seattle An NBA Arena Without Public Funding
On Thursday, the Sacramento Kings will play their first game in a new arena that the city chipped in $255 million to build.

Is Juan Martin Del Potro Back?
The large, hard-charging Argentine is winning things again.

This Soccer Highlight Is The Absolute Worst Soccer Highlight
The New York Red Bulls’ reserve team faced off against the Swope Park Rangers in something called the USL Cup Final last night.
