Contained Space: <em>Captain Phillips,</em> Reviewed.

How Did Philip Rivers Stop Sucking?
Last season, under Norv Turner and his Dink-and-Punt strategems, Philip Rivers became a dull, weaponless checkdown zombie, a man working anxiously behind a cobbled-together offensive line. Under Mike McCoy and his pepped-up offense, Rivers is looking a lot more like the slinging, derping Marmalard ...
Old Photo: Dr. J And John Havlicek, Shirtless And Wearing Sombreros
We know nothing about the origin of this photo of Julius Erving and John Havlicek, but we love it. It was tweeted this morning by SLAM associate editor Adam Figman, who says it shows the two retired NBA legends "chilling very hard in Mexico, 1977." And that much is demonstrably true: The Doctor and ...
Flyers Bro Tries To Start Shit In The Bathroom, Gets Shut Down
A heartwarming scene from a Wells Fargo Center restroom.

Blown Calls Don't Get More Blown Than Bucknor Robbing Yelich
The Marlins tonight won their 59th game of the season, over the Phillies, no thanks to this call at first by umpire CB Bucknor. If this weren't a senioritis game between two also-rans, it would definitely go down as one of the biggest botched calls in recent memory. Heck, this was a meaningless game...
