Pliny The Elder And Blind Pig: Trophy Beers Within Everyone's Grasp
First off, let me introduce myself: My name is Mike, and I have been given the dubious honor of being named Drunkspin's West Coast Beer Correspondent, which means that every now and then you'll see some writing on a beer that Will Gordon either can't get up in Massachusetts, or can't, like, get up...

A Courtside View Of Pat Connaughton's Block
Notre Dame's OT win over Butler on Saturday was probably the best tournament game of the weekend, and it might not have gone that long had Irish senior guard Pat Connaughton not swooped in to swat down a Kellen Dunham shot with one second left in regulation. ...

Referee Sends Off Wrong West Brom Player
Disaster struck for West Bromwich Albion just over a minute into their match against Manchester City.

The Arkansas Bench Threw A Shoe Onto The Court In The Middle Of Play
This might be the most bizarre sequence of events you'll see this NCAA tournament. First, for some unknown reason, Arkansas's Rashad Madden kicked his shoe off and into the crowd. I suppose it was loose and he felt he was better off without one?...

Arkansas Bro Tries To Catch Home Run Ball In His Visor
With sixteen meaningful college basketball games on today, it's entirely understandable why someone would want to sit out in the rain watching SEC baseball. This Arkansas bro decided to do exactly that, and when an LSU homer headed his way, the gloveless guy took off his hat to catch the ball. Excep...

Sean Penn Is Way Too Weird To Be Your Next Great Action Hero
If nothing else, The Gunman gives us a scene in which Sean Penn goes surfing. Of all the mysteries of centuries of American film, one that has always vexed me in particular is, "How did the doof who played Spicoli turn into that guy?" If you haven't watched Fast Times at Ridgemont High recently—an...

Chinese Hoops Player Makes Best Highlight, Worst Mistake Of His Life
Han Dejun is a 7-foot-1 center who plays for the Liaoning Flying Leopards in the Chinese Basketball Association. He's huge. In this video, you can see him dunking on Stephon Marbury, who is both old and relatively small, and then nearly hyping his own face off. ...

Sex And Dead Children: Every FCC Viewer Complaint About The Super Bowl
As we do every year, we recently submitted a FOIA request to the FCC for all the complaints it received from viewers upset by something aired at the Super Bowl.

Is This Philip Rivers's Last Year With The Chargers?
That vaunted quarterback class of 2004 will turn 34 this year—right around the age, if you're a good-to-great QB like Ben Roethlisberger, Eli Manning, or Philip Rivers, you get that last longish-term contract to set you for life. Roethlisberger got his extension; Manning's is likely coming soon. But...

Kyrie Irving Hits Buzzer-Beating Three To Force Overtime
Down six with just over 30 seconds remaining, it looked like the Cavs were certain to take the L tonight in San Antonio. That's before Kyrie Irving hit a pair of three-pointers—one at the buzzer—to force overtime....

Please Get Your Talk About "Overthinking" Out Of Trevor Bauer's Face
Cleveland Indians pitcher Trevor Bauer is fairly active on Twitter, and fans who tweet questions at him often get responses. Yesterday, one fan asked Bauer what he probably thought was a pretty innocent question until he got an eight-tweet rant in response. ...

A Huge New Double IPA For Joyful Perverts
Saturday evening, I went to a 10-year-old buddy's ice-hockey game. It turns out they don't serve beer at youth hockey games in this uptight town; you can't even get a little something extra added to your snack-bar hot chocolate. When you ostentatiously drop a $5 bill in the tip jar before placing yo...

It's hard to believe the rapper and 106 & Park host formerly known as Lil Bow Wow is 28 today. Seems like just yesterday we were introduced to a precocious 13-year-old Shad Moss by way of his debut single, 2000's "Bounce With Me." Today is his birthday, and he has many reasons to celebrate. I know y...
