Cleveland Gifted A Few Runs To Chicago With Some Dumbass Defense
It was a perfectly normal, albeit disappointing, first-inning development when Josh Tomlin followed up two quick outs by laying an easy curveball for Kris Bryant to jerk out of the ballpark. Much less normal, however, was the way the Indians gave up their next two runs to the Cubs....
Aaron Gordon Got In Some Mid-Game Dunk Contest Practice
Aaron Gordon got robbed at the Slam Dunk Contest last season, and this evening, he got in some early prep for his 2017 run at the title. In the first quarter of the Magic’s game against the Sixers, he robbed Richaun Holmes blind then pulled off a two-handed 360 on the breakaway....
Ray Allen Paved The Way
Ray Allen hasn’t played in an NBA game since July 2014, but the 41-year-old shooting guard was not officially retired until this morning, when he announced his exit from the NBA in an essay published on The Players’ Tribune....

I Still Haven't Wrapped My Head Around This LeBron James Pass
I know you’ve seen this pass LeBron James made during Saturday’s game against the Magic:...
High School Team Beats Opponent In Victory Formation By Successfully Swiping The Snap
Friday night’s Goddard-Artesia high school game in New Mexico ended with a winning field goal after Goddard players successfully snatched the snap away from the center as Artesia attempted to kneel in victory formation:...
Pitt Runs Tackle-Around For Fat Guy Touchdown
Pitt tied up Virginia Tech tonight with another touchdown by offensive tackle Brian O’Neill. The 300-pounder took a backward pass to the end zone earlier this year against Georgia Tech, and tonight took a forward handoff—we called this the Revolving Door Play back where I come from—for a five-yard t...
Boy, <i>Thursday Night Football</i> Is The Best, Isn't It?
We are blessed by the NFL’s benevolence in its grace to provide us the finest professional football every Thursday night. We aren’t worthy of witnessing the incredible talents of the Jacksonville Jaguars weekly—let alone in such a showcase as Thursday Night Football....
Vine Was The Best Highlight Delivery Machine Imaginable
As the internet mutates, so does the way we consume highlights of sick slams, huge homers, and stuff that happens in football. If YouTube killed SportsCenter and GIFs closed the casket, then Vine danced on its grave....
Anthony Davis Will Show No Mercy
The Pelicans were supposed to be last year’s surprise Western Conference playoff debutante, but instead, injuries and incompetence stripped them of their chance and they pooped out an utterly forgettable 30-win season. Worst of all, Anthony Davis stagnated, got shut down in March with an injury, and...
The Mavericks And Pacers Set Basketball Back A Few Decades On This Sequence
The NBA is back, which means it’s time for cool highlights, like dunks, blocks, and Charles Barkley’s bad takes. But none of those live up to the majesty and splendor of, uh, whatever this is....
Jonathon Simmons Flushed Steph Curry Down The Toilet
Perhaps the most humiliating moment of the Warriors’ ignominious collapse in the NBA Finals came when LeBron James soared out of the sky and pinned Andre Iguodala’s shot to the backboard in utter defiance of gravity and everyone....
LeBron James's Dunks Are So Violent
The Cavaliers are cruising in the first game of the NBA season, with a nice healthy fourth quarter lead over the Knicks. It’s gone about how you’d probably expect. Kristaps Porzingis has loped around the court and hit a few shots, Kyrie Irving has put Brandon Jennings in the toilet, and, of course, ...
Xherdan Shaqiri's Left Foot Had A Hell Of A Game
It seems almost quaint now to remember that last summer, the fallen wonderkid Xherdan Shaqiri at first rejected, before accepting, the bejeweled life raft Stoke City tossed him in order to rescue him from Inter’s bench and the career obsolescence that loomed dangerously close. Stoke are a mainstay i...
Las Palmas' Exquisite Team Goal Will Make You Drool
A chipped through ball. A volleyed backheel assist. A leaping, volleyed scissor-kick for a shot. Goals don’t get much better than this....
This Soccer Highlight Is The Absolute Worst Soccer Highlight
The New York Red Bulls’ reserve team faced off against the Swope Park Rangers in something called the USL Cup Final last night. The Rangers, however, were justifiably forced to forfeit before the 90 minutes were up when everyone in the stadium agreed that there would be no more soccering that night ...
We Are All Living In Hell [Update]
There is no ever-loving deity. There is only Satan himself, handling the levers and pulleys that guide our lives, our limbs, our souls. Update: ...
Marvelous Work, 49ers
Today’s NFL matchups have resulted in some of the worst professional football we’ve seen in years. Here is just one contribution from the San Francisco 49ers....
The Jacksonville Jaguars, Everybody
The Jags had pinned Oakland back for fourth-and-24, and the Raiders made things even harder on themselves by botching the punt’s long snap. The result of the play? First down, Oakland....
Yes, This Is Awesome
You don’t need to watch any more football today, because you won’t see anything as good as this....
