The Gift For The Grizzlies Fan Who Has Everything: A $13,000 Practice Basketball Court
$5,000 for a college basketball court? Amateur hour. This holiday season you want the real deal and you're willing to pay top dollar.

Jim Schwartz Ain't Even Mad
The Colts topped Detroit yesterday thanks to some last-second Andrew Luck magic, and it's the sort of ending one might expect could launch notoriously-volatile Lions coach Jim Schwartz into orbit. Not so, it seems, as Schwartz simply brushed it off with a "haters gonna hate" and marched back into t...
Jerry Jones Scratching His Nuts: Eagles-Cowboys, And Much Of Modern Culture, In One GIF

Soccer Player Wipes Ass With Money, Brits Lose Their Shit
West Bromwich defender Liam Ridgewell won a bet with a friend about eight months ago and took the picture you see to the right as a way of gloating.

Fireman Ed: The Last Superfan
Maybe you know that Bruce Harper wore number 42 for the New York Jets from 1977 to 1984 and that he is the all-time leader in punt return yardage in Jets history.
