Shane Lowry Hits Hole-In-One On 16
Wonderfully profane Irishman Shane Lowry may be tied for 42nd place in this final round of the Masters, but he took home a special moment today on the 16th when he became the first in four years to hit a hole-in-one from that tee. He seems pretty excited....
"These Guys Are Good"

A-Rod Whacks Dong
Alex Rodriguez hit his first home run of the season today in Detroit, giving the Yankees an early lead thanks to A-Rod’s massive dong....
Goalie Scores Improbably Stupid Own Goal
Goalie Mickael Roche somehow scored this own goal in an Oceania Champions League match between AS Tefana (Tahiti) and Nadi (Fiji). If you recognize Roche’s name from anything, it’s probably because he was the poor sap in goal when Spain blasted Tahiti 10-0 in the 2013 Confederations Cup....
Apparently, The Phillies Don't Know The Rules Of Baseball
Today in “Things Only The Phillies And Little Leaguers Do,” watch Phillies second baseman Cesar Hernandez get doubled off on a called infield fly....
This Is The Among The Best Victory Celebrations In Cycling History
You may glance at the headline above you and reflexively gag at the hyperbole. However, you would be wrong to do so, for Astana’s Diego Rosa really did the shit....
Harrison Barnes Put Kevin Martin Into The Damn Blender
Tonight, the Warriors became the second team in NBA history to win 70 games, as they comfortably held off the Spurs 112-101. Steph Curry was as omnipotent as he usually is, and the final scoreline is perhaps a bit generous to San Antonio. Kevin Martin had an okay game off the bench for the Spurs, bu...
Josh Richardson Throws Down One Of The Best Dunks of The Year, Renders TNT Speechless
Josh Richardson is a fun rookie who plays about 20 minutes a game for the Heat and has a habit of jamming the bejesus out of the ball. If you’re not up on him, well now you are....
The Best Moment Of The A's Season So Far Is This Beer-Holding Fan's Foul Ball Catch
It’s been unseasonably nice in the Bay Area this week. As long as the Oakland A’s keep playing in their dilapidated husk of a ballpark, tickets will stay cheap, and there aren’t many better ways to enjoy a little global warming-induced early summer than watching some baseball and enjoying a big ass ...
Ernie Els Started The Masters With A 7-Putt, And It Was Excruciating
You know that sickly feeling you get you’re watching a particularly violent scene in a horror movie that just goes on for way too long? That’s how watching Ernie Els seven-putt his way to a sextuple bogey on the first hole of the Masters will make you feel....
Carlos Correa Slapped A Massive Donger
While maybe not as visually impressive as Giancarlo Stanton’s Mars shot, because dead center at Yankee Stadium is a long long way away, Carlos Correa’s home run last night in last night’s 16-6 loss was the most impressive of the young season....
Have Another Kobe Bryant Lowlight, Because We're Running Out Of Time
The Los Angeles Lakers only have four games left to play, which means we are nearly out of chances to watch old man Kobe Bryant creak his way through some extremely funny and embarrassing possessions. He gave us one last night, though, so let’s hold onto it. It could be the last one we ever see:...
The Mariners Just Can't Stop Slappin' Dingers
The Mariners opened the season with a rather odd little loss to the Texas Rangers. Since then, however, they have managed to humiliate a presumptive AL playoff team to the tune of 19 runs in their next two games....
Trevor Story Is Young And Strong And Keeps Hitting Dingers
The Rockies don’t have Troy Tulowitzki anymore. They do have Trevor Story, a 23-year-old rookie shortstop who just became the first player in MLB history to hit a homer in each his first three career games. He went deep twice in his first game, making him the only player in history to mash four tate...
Manchester City Gift-Wrap Game-Tying Goal For PSG
“So far so good for City,” the commentator remarks before the screen cuts to a replay of the goal that put Manchester City 1-0 up on Paris Saint-Germain just minutes earlier. As Kevin De Bruyne’s shot is shown hitting the back of the net again, the Parisian crowd roars. Not because of the replay, bu...
You're Gonna Need More Than Two Defenders To Stop Boogie Cousins From Dunking On You
The Kings are playing at home tonight, which means they are not resting DeMarcus Cousins and desperately trying to lose their way into keeping their pick this year. This is good news for you and me, and bad news for Al-Farouq Aminu and Mason Plumlee, who got dunked on thoroughly by Young Boogie here...
Giancarlo Stanton Sent This Justin Verlander Pitch To Goddamn Mars
Justin Verlander didn’t allow a hit through five innings to the Miami Marlins this evening, but once Miami woke up (presumably because Barry Bonds dispensed a few pieces of sage wisdom), they really started hitting the dogpiss out of the ball. ...
Yasiel Puig Hit This Season's First Little League Inside-The-Park Home Run
I feel bad for the Padres fans who went to watch their team host the Dodgers yesterday, only to watch horrified as their Southern California rivals whipped the everliving shit out of their team in front of masses of visiting fans. It was an altogether embarrassing 15-0 drubbing, in which Clayton Ker...
Marcus Paige's Shot Deserved Better
A truly remarkable sports play can meet no crueler fate than to have its significance snuffed out by an even bigger play moments later. Marcus Paige’s game-tying three with four seconds left joins Tim Duncan’s prayer and Jermaine Kearse’s circus catch in the sad fraternity of indelible but ultimatel...
