Ndamukong Suh Is Stomping On People Again
Ndamukong Suh has embraced his reputation as the NFL's dirtiest player, and he borrowed from teammate Dominic Raiola's playbook tonight in crushing Aaron Rodgers's leg—the same leg that left the Packers quarterback leaving the field on a cart earlier in the game....

Are You A Bro, A Buddy, Or A Dude?
Using geocoded Twitter data, a linguist has put together heat maps of how and where we refer to the American man (and, not so infrequently, the American woman). I'm proud to live in a "pal" enclave....

It Was A Very Bad Night For Martin Brodeur
It's been four games now, and it has not gotten any easier to process the sight of Martin Brodeur in a Blues uniform. Many more games like last night's, though, and we won't have to see it much longer....

Credit The Bills' Defense, Because Their Offense Sucks So Hard
The Bills pulled off an upset of sorts yesterday at home, beating the 10-win Packers, 21-13. Buffalo now has its first eight-win season since 2004; the defense should be largely thanked for that....

Dennis Rodman Is Fundamentally Evil
Dennis Rodman is a troll. Before dedicating any more thought to his opinions and politics than you would to those of a subway evangelist, remember that. But that doesn't stop him from being run out on TV and in interviews as an expert in North Korean affairs or racial politics in America. He may jus...

Rich Rodriguez Losing His Mind, In Extreme Slow Motion
Arizona held off the Sun Devils to seize the Territorial Cup and a trip to the Pac-12 championship game today, but a late unsportsmanlike conduct penalty left Wildcats coach Rich Rodriguez in an extremely combustible state....

This sort of dead-eyed efficiency might be standard among NFL quarterbacks, and it’s just that we rarely see it from this angle. But I’m guessing not:...

11-Year-Old Japanese Hockey Wunderkind Is The Truth
The kid dangling and destroying the competition above is Aito Iguchi, an 11-year-old who plays for Japan's Saitama Junior Warriors. Truthers out there are dismissing his skills, arguing that Japan doesn't develop quality hockey players, there are a million 11-year-old Canadian kids that good, his sk...

Rodney Harrison: "I Think You Have To Get Rid Of" RGIII
Washington's 27-7 loss to Tampa Bay could be described as rock bottom if this franchise hadn't proven so adept at digging even deeper. But the disaster of a game seems like this year's turning point: any lingering hope of a late-season surge is gone, fans are angry and embarrassed, and the pundits c...

Emmanuel Sanders Leaves Game After Brutal Hit From Rodney McLeod
Broncos receiver Emmanuel Sanders is being evaluated for a concussion after taking this extremely violent hit from the Rams' Rodney McLeod....

I Rewatched <em>Hot Rod</em> Last Night
I forgot that Danny McBride was in it; he was great. The soundtrack was awesome, too. A couple of scenes were a little boring, but most of it was enjoyable. Richardson was my favorite. I love Richardson....

<em>El Mariachi</em> Is A Feast Of Bloody Micro-Budget Silliness
There's a moment early in El Mariachi, the micro-budget 1992 movie that introduced Robert Rodriguez to the world, where our hero, an unnamed wandering musician, asks a bartender if he can work there, singing for tips. The asshole bartender laughs in his face and says that he'd never pay one guy ...

Alex Rodriguez Peed On My Floor, Says Wife Of A-Rod's Cousin
We can't be much clearer than that headline. Carmen Sucart, wife of A-Rod's cousin Yuri, says a few years back, Rodriguez once came to the Sucarts' house (that A-Rod gave to them) and threatened them to keep their mouths shut about his performance-enhancing drug use. Then, he peed on the floor as a ...

A-Rod Snitched On A-Rod During Meeting With DEA
Ever since getting popped with a 162-game performance enhancing drug suspension based on information that MLB obtained by strong-arming Miami steroid peddler Anthony Bosch, Alex Rodriguez has denied ever taking performance enhancing drugs. Now, thanks to documents obtained by the Miami Herald, we kn...

A-Rod Paid His Cousin $900,000 To Shut Up About Steroids
The last time we checked in with Alex Rodriquez's cousin Yuri Sucart, he was taking the fall for all manner of steroids-related sins. As first reported in the New York Daily News, we now know why: Rodriguez paid him a cool $900,000 to do so....

James Scores Highlight Reel Goal On The Volley, Puts Real Madrid Up 2-0
It's just another day in La Liga for Real Madrid, which is having an easy time against Granada. Here's a terrific goal from James Rodriguez, a volley over the keeper's head from about 15 yards out....

Jarrod Dyson Claims An Oriole Deliberately Kneed Him In The Head
Jarrod Dyson said he believes Orioles 3B Ryan Flaherty deliberately "put a knee down" on him on a pickoff attempt last night, as retaliation for his earlier comments that this ALCS would be a short one....

Not Even His Receivers Knew Aaron Rodgers's Fake Spike Was Coming
It wasn't quite a Dan Marino redux in Miami, as Aaron Rodgers's fake spike, which fooled as many Packers as it did Dolphins, didn't come on the winning touchdown. (It merely put Green Bay in prime position for that on the next play.) But we'll never not stop to appreciate an elegant bit of footb...

Alex Rodriguez Is Not Comfortable In His Own Skin: A Gallery
Alex Rodriguez was present—though not honored, of course—at a fundraiser for the Buoniconti Fund to Cure Paralysis a couple of nights ago. He somehow made standing around and taking pictures with fellow athletes look incredibly awkward....
