Animated Short Imagines The San Antonio Spurs As A Commando Team

Forget Steve Ballmer, Body-Rollin' Mop Boy Is The Truth [Update: He's A Goddamn Fraud]

Rams Owner Who Just Bought Land In L.A. Is Ignoring St. Louis
It appears that St. Louis Rams owner Stan Kroenke is pulling out all the stops in an effort to terrify the city of St. Louis into believing it is about to lose its NFL team.

Ralph Lawler Has The Flu, Broadcasts Most Of Clippers Game In A Mumble
Normally this is where I'd make a couple of jokes, but I'm honestly a bit concerned about longtime Clippers play-by-play man Ralph Lawler, who announced much of the second half of tonight's blowout win over the Lakers like the clip above, in a barely understandable mumble. Clippers radio announcer...
Watch Steve Ballmer Flip The Fuck Out To The Music Of Fergie
Fergie performed between quarters of the Clippers-Lakers game at Staples Center tonight. Clips owner Steve Ballmer, uh ... enjoyed it? I think that's what he's doing, here? Enjoying? That or just straight-up raging out. I can't really tell....

Sanders did sp...
Giannis Antetokounmpo Basically Dunked A Freaking Skyhook
Kareem Abdul-Jabbar perfected the hook shot and made it unstoppable, releasing it so far from the basket and so high into the air that it was coined the skyhook. Or so we thought, until Giannis Antetokounmpo showed off the next phase of its evolution against the Suns tonight: the skydunk. Think abou...

Report: Rams Owner Bought Land, Threatening To Build L.A. Stadium
Going by a Los Angeles Times report posted early this morning, Rams owner Stan Kroenke is set to saber-rattle the fillings right out of the city of St. Louis.

Byron Scott Wants Kobe To Shoot More. No, Really.
Since Kobe Bryant came back from a week of DNP - Old, the Lakers have gone 1-2, with a win over the Nuggets featuring an old-man triple-double from Kobe, and a close loss to the Grizzlies, a much better team than the Lakers. By any measure, this represents drastic if short-term improvement. Naturall...
Kobe Flips Out Because Jeremy Lin, Rest Of Lakers Are Morons
Kobe Bryant hit a clutch three last night to bring the Lakers within one of the Grizzlies at Staples Center. He did this with 24 seconds remaining in the game, which meant that Los Angeles needed to foul and stop the clock. Jeremy Lin, guarding the Memphis ball-handler, did nothing. So Kobe took mat...
The Weirdness Of The NHL's First Modern Outdoor Game
On September 27, 1991, the Rangers and Kings played a preseason game on a rink built in a Las Vegas parking lot.

Darryl Sutter Uses Every Trick In The (Rule)book To Gain An Edge
It was, depending on your philosophies on hockey and on life, either a low-down attempt to rattle a goalie's concentration with a ticky-tack stoppage, or a completely valid demand that everyone play within the rules. But there's no question that Darryl Sutter pointing out the technically illegal o...
