After Losing, Tuukka Rask Fails Miserably At Breaking His Goalie Stick
Bruins goalie Tuukka Rask gave up the game-ending shootout goal to Derek Roy for a 3-2 loss, and he was fuming. Of course, Rask tried to break his stick, because that's what one does when they're angry about a loss. "Tried" is the keyword here....


Even The League Office Feels Bad For The Celtics
On Tuesday, the Celtics got mollywhopped by the Rockets. (The stat sheet broke Rajon Rondo's brain for a second.) Gerald Wallace, who knows a thing or two about being a good player on a terrible team, was understandably exasperated in his postgame interview....

Denny McLain Says "Domestic Issues" Drove Prince Fielder Out Of Detroit
Former Detroit Tigers pitcher Denny McLain hinted at some darker, less savory reasons for why the team traded first baseman Prince Fielder today on the Michigan radio show Doctor & Bentley. His comments are definitely suggestive, though it's not exactly clear what he's trying to get at....

Clarke MacArthur Goes Between His Legs For A Beautiful Assist
The Ottawa winger threaded his own needle—and a pair of Wild players—to set up Kyle Turris's shorthanded goal. Though Minnesota won, and MacArthur didn't get onto the scoresheet beyond this assist, it was pretty enough to get him named the game's second star....

Dwight Howard Got Owned By A Heckler Last Night
A fun thing happened during last night's Rockets-Mavericks game. Late in the fourth quarter, Dwight Howard got heckled by a very angry man who may or may not have been an extra in Wayne's World 2, and Howard responded by tossing the ball at the heckler....

Tough Love: Watching Football On TV While Sitting In The Snow
At first glance, it's just a photo of Big Blue fans watching the 1962 NFL title game while seated outside a Connecticut motel, beyond the range of the New York City-area TV blackout. (Green Bay beat the Giants that day at the old Yankee Stadium, 16-7.)...

A Three-Man Front Is A Late-Game Defensive Formation For Suckers

No, it wasn't simply that Michigan drove in the dregs of game...

Rajon Rondo Examines Stat Sheet, Does Not Like What He Sees
