I don't have any information or context to provide to help you make sense of how this video came to be.

Rafael Palmeiro Was The Ideal Steroids Scapegoat
Rafael Palmeiro was going to stroll into the Hall of Fame. It's sort of unbelievable to remember this fact, as we try to gaze back over the ruptured fault line between the Steroids Era and the Steroids Recriminations Era. There wasn't really anything to argue about, back then. He was in....

Young Hockey Fan Gives Zero Fucks
Kid! There's some hockey going on right over there. Look at the hockey. Just turn your head a bit and...no? OK. The Metropolitan kind of sucks, I agree. And if I had a Brad Richards jersey, I'd be mad too. But seriously, those seats cost a ton of cash, you ingrate....

When someone mentions performance-enhancing drugs, what comes to mind? For me, it's an image of two 'roided out home run hitters embracing on a baseball field.

Bring On This Year's "Banned" Super Bowl Ads
For an outfit that claims to love 'mericuh, the NFL sure leans pink when it comes to a couple of the heartland's favorite Amendments. Like the Second, which forbids the government from regulating firearms in any form. And the First, which endows big companies with the right to advertise whatever the...
