A.C. Milan's Philippe Mexès Hammers Home Ridiculous Volley
Philippe Mexès gave A.C. Milan a 1-0 lead over Inter in an International Champions Cup match with this absolutely impeccable volley off a corner. This is nuts....

Benny Feilhaber <i>Golazo</i> Equalizes For Sporting KC
Benny Feilhaber’s rocket golazo early in the second half evened Sporting KC with hosts Real Salt Lake and, while not on the level of his heroics in 2007, showed the veteran midfielder still has some fire in his step....

Alex Rodriguez Is Old And Fun
I don’t watch many Yankees games because the Yankees are whatever, but I had a game on Wednesday evening for the sake of background noise, which means I got to see Alex Rodriguez hit his 20th homer of the season:...

Here's A Bartolo Colon GIF To Brighten Up Your Friday
Clayton Kershaw rolled into Queens last night and took a katana to the Mets’ lineup, striking out 11 and allowing just three hits in nine shutout innings. But whatever, the real star of the show (as usual) was Bartolo Colon....

Brandon Phillips's Absurd Sliding Stop, Behind-The-Back Flip Ends Inning
Brandon Phillips is one of the better defensive players at his position, and plays like this are a big reason why: ...

Trinidad And Tobago Vs. Panama Did Not End On A High Note

5-Foot-8 Cole Beasley Throws Down Reverse, Double-Clutch Alley-Oop
Cowboys wide receiver Cole Beasley would like to remind you that professional athletes are a different species:...

Boomerangs Are Bullshit
Deadspin is nominally a sports blogsite. There are no major sports in action right now unless you want to count baseball, which is a bad and weak sport. So we at Deadspin started talking about comic books, because at least 100 grim, gritty trailers for superhero movies came out over the weekend. Eve...

Let's Laugh At The Lakers' Awful Summer League Performance
Tonight the Los Angeles Lakers came out against the Knicks with a performance for the ages: a first quarter featuring seven turnovers, six fouls, and five points. Your future, Lakers fans, is apparently getting dominated by a certain Latvian. ...

This Dude's Russell Westbrook Impression Is Spectacular

You're Never Safe When Billy Hamilton Is On Base
I’m not sure what compelled Billy Hamilton to make this ballsy play during Saturday’s game against the Marlins—maybe when you steal as many bases as he does, you get bored and and have to find new ways to challenge yourself—but I sure am glad that he went for it:...

Marshawn Lynch May Be The Best Kickball Player Ever
Here we have some video of Marshawn Lynch playing kickball at a charity barbecue event in Oakland. And holy hell, I have absolutely no clue where Lynch’s first kick ends up! He kicks the ball so hard it appears to vanish into thin air. On his second kick, Lynch opted for a more traditional home run,...

USA Score, Finally, As Dempsey Puts Yanks Up 1-0 On Haiti
A thus-far uninspired performance by the U.S. has, at least, resulted in a goal and once again it’s Clint Dempsey who scored to put his side up 1-0 on Haiti in tonight’s Gold Cup match at the Patriots’ stadium in Foxborough. Let’s not let Deuce take all the credit, though he’s certainly earned it th...

White Sox Complete Extremely Stupid Double Play
This double play to close the third in Chicago today is just like White Sox broadcaster Ken “Hawk” Harrelson: famous for being awful. (Fortunately for the White Sox, the Cubs managed to be even more awful at baserunning during the 9-2-6 double play.)...

Goalkeeper Just Throws The Ball Into His Own Net
Your first impulse after watching this debacle is probably to cry “Match fixing!” but to paraphrase an old saying, never attribute to corruption that which can be adequately explained by ineptitude. Throw it or hold it, don’t try to do both at once....

Fat Guy Touchdown Alert!
It’s always big news in these parts when a Fat Guy scores a touchdown, and it happened tonight in the CFL as Ottawa defensive lineman Zack Evans came away with a ball out of Edmonton’s QB Matt Nichols’s hand and took it 65 yards to the maison. It’s not much consolation for the Redblacks, who are get...

How The Hell Did Evan Gattis Turn This Pitch Into A Home Run?
Getting the bat on a shoulder-high pitch is one thing, but what Evan Gattis did to this Trevor Bauer fastball last night boggles the mind:...

Justin Upton Gets Up To Rob A Dinger
Damn, Justin Upton, what did Andrew McCutchen ever do to you? McCutchen had to think this go-ahead homer was long gone but Upton, recently named the Padres’ lone representative to the All-Star game, got way up above the wall to take it away. McCutchen got the last laugh, however, as his Pirates scor...
