City of Phoenix’s Super Bowl promo pic goes overboard with Photoshop
I don’t know why anyone is surprised when a city putting on the Super Bowl goes overboard trying to make sure its streets are clean before hosting thousands of fans and hundreds of media members. There are levels to lengths that they go, and it varies from allegedly euthanizing stray dogs (turns out...
Here Are The Best Photos From The USWNT's Victory Celebration
Plenty of reactions to the USWNT’s spectacular defense of its World Cup focused on the future—this team’s ability to change the world, influence the next generations, and affect national conversations. While correct, those thoughts also miss a crucial component of the U.S.’s unprecedented fourth-eve...
The Layup Faces Of Game 2
For Sunday’s Game 2 in Toronto, a pair of remote cameras were set up at one end of the court. One (the angle you see above) appears to have been in the stanchion itself, and was operated by Getty Images’ Gregory Shamus, and captures the action just below the basket. The other (the first photo below)...
The 2019 NFL Coaches' Class Photo Features Matching Grudens And A Smiling Bill Belichick

These Photos Of Tony Parker In A Hornets Uniform Do Not Look Right
For a part of the NBA season that is not strictly a part of the NBA season, this is a pretty entertaining part of the NBA season.

Your Band Photo Sucks
If you write about music online even once, something cool and unexpected happens: a handful of artists just like the one you originally covered will send you their music in the hope that you’ll write about that, too. Sometimes that doesn’t work and they’ll pursue other methods, like following you on...
The First Four-Minute Mile, In One Pain-Wracked Photo
Sir Roger Bannister died over the weekend at the age of 88 and, as to be expected, the glowing obituaries focused on his epochal mile of May 6, 1954, when he shattered the four-minute barrier on Oxford University’s Iffley Road track....
Badass Olympic Skeleton Helmets Are Back
Skeleton exists because someone decided luge wasn’t terrifying enough. What if luge, but head-first? Accordingly, skeleton sliders tend to personalize their helmets like hockey goalies, having them painted in artistic, patriotic, or intimidating ways. ...

FW: FW: The Seahawks Are Getting Kicked Out Of The NFL
Everyone is pretty pumped up, if we’re just going by the expressions on the faces of the Seattle Seahawks players and coaches arrayed about their locker room. Richard Sherman is cheesing like a five-year-old on photo day. If Pete Carroll was grinning any harder, his smile would somehow be larger tha...
The Best Of NBA Photo Day 2017
NBA teams have taken their requisite pictures which can be disseminated in promotional materials you’ll probably throw away almost immediately, but it’s unfair to condemn the practice of making enormous people pose in dumb ways with balls, since the result is so wonderfully goofy. Here are, for one ...
ESPN Seems Really Proud Of This Terrible Tony Romo Photoshop

The White Sox Invited A Bunch Of Good Dogs To Their Park
