Doug Baldwin Reveals Football-Pooping Celebration Was For Darrelle Revis
Doug Baldwin commemorated his Super Bowl lead-extending touchdown catch by pretending either to poop out the football, or on it.

Cool Dunks Look Even Cooler In Slow-Mo
There won't be any basketball until Thursday night (bad) because the NBA decided to give everybody a week long break (good) but without changing the start or end date of the season (dumb) so there are more back-to-backs and four-games-in-five-nights (very bad) this year....

How To Clean Up Every Mess Depicted In <i>Fifty Shades of Grey</i>
Fifty Shades of Grey is not a good book. The story essentially boils down to two boring people engaged in a boring contract negotiation, punctuated by seemingly endless rounds of shower/bathtub sex and a few light spankings. It's really very, very dull stuff....
A Brief Guide To Damon Dash's Dogs, AKA His Emotional Support Dragons
I don't quite get what Dame Dash is up to these days. Making movies and clothing and opening up a restaurant and living on the West Coast, I think. His Instagram makes it seem like he has some sort of polyamory thing going on. There's a lot to unpack. But we're not here to parse those things. We're ...

How Else Did The 49ers Screw Up Their Coaching Search?
Nothing about this Niners offseason, from the inevitable Jim Harbaugh divorce to the awkward promotion of Jim Tomsula, has been easy or painless.

Patrick Kane Turns Marc-Andre Fleury Into A Pile Of Limbs In Shootout

Actually, you probably exert more effort making a peanu...
Victor Oladipo Sings Horribly, Throws Down Tremendous Dunk
Victor Oladipo, the living and sole justification for the existence of the Orlando Magic, entered tonight's slam dunk contest in Brooklyn to a hilariously off-key rendition of the theme to "New York, New York" before throwing down what turned out to be a pretty damn good dunk in the opening round of...
The NBA Players Union Made Two Big Decisions Yesterday
The NBA’s All-Star Weekend is mostly just a 72 hour party with some “basketball” thrown in there to give everybody a break from partying, but some important business is conducted too.
