Let's Remember Some Guys

Don't Mess With Hanley Ramirez's Dirt
Hanley Ramirez has gone from a man lost in left field to a pleasant surprise at first base with the Red Sox. He cares deeply about the area he covers, as evidenced in Monday’s game when Athletics outfielder Coco Crisp tried to alter the infield dirt....
The Blues Wouldn't <i>Really</i> Bench Brian Elliott For Game 7. Right?
It was a bad night for Blues goalie Brian Elliott, yanked after allowing three goals—against just four saves—in the first period of Dallas’s 3-2 win. Bad nights happen. But is there really a chance that Elliott was so out of sorts that Jake Allen will get the nod in Wednesday’s Game 7? Ken Hitchcock...
All Hail Steph Curry
I didn’t think Steph Curry would play tonight. He probably didn’t think he’d log 37 minutes tonight. His coach didn’t plan to let Curry loose and have him take a third of the Warriors’ shots, and yet, he torched the Blazers for 40 points on 32 shots to lead the Warriors to a crazy 132-125 win in the...
Jose Altuve Can Do It All
The Houston Astros have been one of the most disappointing teams in baseball this season, sitting last in an AL West they were expected to dominate. The pitching staff has been giving up too many runs and even ace Dallas Keuchel’s stats are down across the board (beard’s still good at least). But Ca...

Cop: Mario Pender Said He Wouldn't Comply With Arresting Officers Until Jimbo Fisher Showed Up
Over the weekend Florida State running back Delmarick “Mario” Pender was arrested on charges of domestic battery by strangulation and resisting arrest without violence after allegedly hitting and choking the mother of his child, and was promptly dismissed by the team. Below you can find the probable...
Cristiano Ronaldo's Swag Is Off The Charts Right Now
The video you’re about to see shows a neat little Real Madrid sequence capped by a deceptively difficult Cristiano Ronaldo finish. But the goal itself isn’t what we’re here for. What we are here for is all the swag dripping off the Portuguese forward after he scores....
Leicester City Got Their Trophy, And It Still Doesn't Seem Real
Somehow, a pregame special guest performance by none other than famed classical tenor Andrea Bocelli—where he went on for about ten minutes bringing “Nessun Dorma” and “Con te partirò” to a rowdy and somewhat confused crowd that was more interested in belting out the lyrics to their own little ditti...

The Thunder Need Kevin Durant To Hulk Out
The story of yesterday’s Game 4 between the Spurs and Thunder is obviously Kevin Durant, who led the Thunder to victory with 41 points and outscored San Antonio 17-16 in the fourth quarter. But just as important as all the shots Durant made were all the shots Russell Westbrook didn’t take....
Domestic Abuser Tyreek Hill Says Fans Have Every Right To Hate Him
In this new era of the NFL deciding it cares about domestic violence, it’s become a post-draft tradition to identify the selectee who committed the most despicable crime in college, and even criticize his team for drafting him. This year’s stigma belongs to new Chiefs wide receiver Tyreek Hill....
How Will Bryce Harper Deal With The Barry Bonds Treatment?
Bryce Harper hasn’t logged an official at-bat in his last 11 plate appearances. He was walked a grand total of 13 times during a four-game series against the Cubs, and set an MLB record by reaching base seven times in Sunday’s game without recording an at-bat: He was walked three times, intentionall...
Aroldis Chapman Still Says He Did Nothing Wrong
Aroldis Chapman returns to the Yankees today after serving his 30-game domestic violence suspension, but the fireballing reliever has yet to take much responsibility for the incident that landed him on MLB’s banned list....
PSU Prez Slams "Unsubstantiated" Accusations From Alleged Sandusky Victims
Penn State president Eric Barron responded to revelations that Joe Paterno may have known about Jerry Sandusky’s abuse of children as early as 1971 and that as many as six of Paterno’s assistants personally witnessed Sandusky molesting children with an angry open letter declaring that the stories “s...
