This Lady Behind The Clippers Bench Was The Only One Unimpressed By Last Night's Performance [UPDATED]
Last night's 112-90 Clippers win over the Mavericks was a performance the AP called "dominating" and one that featured a series of spectacular dunks and lobs—one of which we've already featured this morning....

Jamal Crawford's Tightly Wound Alley-Oop To DeAndre Jordan Was Spectacular
Alley-oops are eye-catching because they occupy so much space and time. The lob pass goes up, the finisher readies himself to take off, and we get time to watch it all unfold as anticipation for the big finale builds....

Kevin Durant Almost Exploded The Universe On This Missed Dunk
For my money, a thunderous, rim-rattling, shockwave-inducing dunk is best when it comes on the road. At home, the crowd will erupt, but they'll erupt for anything: a layup, cheerleaders, a taco cannon, whatever, they're already primed to react. But if you can get a reaction in a visiting arena, wh...

Well, Isn't This Just The Cheekiest Backheel Goal?
There's a ton of history between AFC Wimbledon and Milton Keynes Dons. MK Dons began life as Wimbledon, before a controversial move brought a new name—and left Wimbledon without a team. A year before the move, fans started their own club, and AFC Wimbledon has achieved five promotions over the last...

Nebraska's Kenny Bell Delivered The Best Legal Block In College Football This Season, So Of Course He Was Flagged For It
Last night's Big Ten championship game victory for Wisconsin was a blowout snoozer, complete with malfunctioning t-shirt cannon and with a final score of 70-31. Nebraska did have one highlight play, and they should have had two—this legal, fair block by receiver Kenny Bell ended up being flagged a...

Nebraska Quarterback Taylor Martinez Engineered One Of The Most Outstanding Plays This College Football Season
This year's Big Ten championship game is lacking some shine, what with the best team in the conference going undefeated but being ineligible and another, Penn State, being out of the running for the next several years. But that doesn't mean it's not worth watching, as Nebraska angles to seize its ...

Alabama Barely Beats Georgia For SEC Title, Right To Demolish Irish In National Title Game
Your national title game will be SEC semifinal champion Alabama against Notre Dame, which in a just alternate universe just got piss-pounded by Ohio State in the Big Ten title game and ceded its title game slot to Florida. In this universe, though, Notre Dame spent the afternoon licking its chops as...

Lache Seastrunk Puts Team On His Back, Scores 76-Yard TD Run Despite Suffering Leg Injury Mid-Play
Baylor running back Lache Seastrunk has been a one-man Motorin' machine this season, and nothing demonstrates his tenacity and rushing ability more than this long touchdown run today against Oklahoma State, two-thirds of which appear to have been completed after Seastrunk injured his leg. (Darren ...

Valencia's Adil Rami Scored A Goal From Beyond The Midfield Line
Valencia came into the second leg of their Copa del Rey tie with Llagostera carrying a 2-0 aggregate advantage and leading many observers to assume Los Murciélagos would take it easy and coast into the second round with a match draw. That wasn't to be, though, as Valencia put three into the net to...

Spurs Suffered An Own Goal When Aaron Lennon Kicked The Ball Off Gareth Bale's Face
Tottenham Hotspur holds a 2-1 advantage over Liverpool as of this writing, and Spurs players Aaron Lennon and Gareth Bale are responsible for all three goals; they each have one for their own team, and they contributed to put the ball in their own net in an ill-fated attempt to clear a Steven Gerr...

Hurling Is A Sport, And Here's A Hurler Hurting Other Hurlers With His Hurley
This happened more than a week ago, but it slipped our attention, because hurling. That's right: hurling. It's an ancient Gaelic game that isn't quite lacrosse, isn't quite soccer, and isn't quite baseball. I'm not going to pretend I understand the rules, but I can tell you the video above is from...

The Los Angeles Clippers Missed Five Three-Pointers In One Minute Last Night
The L.A. Clippers lost their fourth straight last night, dropping a home bout with New Orleans 105-98 thanks to Blake Griffin's miserable performance (he fouled out, having gone 1-9 from the field) and despite Caron Butler going berserk in the second half (he ended up hitting nine three-pointers o...

Slick Rick's Embarrassing Performance At The Nets Game Last Night Was Worse Than You Think
We told you about Slick Rick getting booed at halftime of the Knicks-Nets game, and about Frank Isola of the New York Daily News getting all kinds of grief on Twitter for wondering whether Slick Rick was indeed a hip-hop legend. Slick's got nothing to prove to anyone anymore, but after hearing thi...

Massive Pee Wee Running Back Just Completely Destroys Normal-Sized Kid Trying To Tackle Him (Update)
If anyone has details on this, please send them over. All we know is that the fullback on the brown team is a monster of a beast of a human being (they don't give out the number 00 to just anyone), and that the safety on the purple team tried to be a hero, and it ended poorly for him. Watch No. 11...

Harrison Barnes Demolishes Nikola Pekovic With The Dunk Of The Year
Not long ago, Harrison Barnes was touted as the next big thing, a guy who was destined for NBA stardom. A disappointing college career changed all that, however, and Barnes—just a rookie—is now associated with unfulfilled potential. So it's easy to forget that he can do things like this....

Jameer Nelson Goes One Way, Paul Pierce Goes Flat On His Back
Jameer Nelson might have missed the shot and the Magic did wind up losing in overtime, but so what? Nelson's hesitation move on this catch-and-step broke Paul Pierce's ankles and left Pierce watching the remainder of the play from his back....

Butler's Rotnei Clarke Hit A Wild Buzzer-Beating Three-Pointer To Defeat Marquette In Maui
While the Butler Bulldogs failed to make the NCAA tournament last year after back-to-back national championship game appearances, it seems the Hoops Nation magic hasn't left the tiny squad from Indianapolis. Rotnei Clarke, the embattled Arkansas transfer, erased a two-point Marquette lead at the M...

Ed Hochuli Reviewed An Un-Reviewable Play And Then Said He Did Not Review It Because It Was Un-Reviewable
Cleveland unexpectedly forced Dallas to overtime, and after an incomplete pass to Miles Austin with 8:35 left to go in the extra period Cleveland called timeout—presumably to force a replay from the booth. Cleveland thought the play was a catch, fumble and Browns recovery. Almost immediately, CBS ...

Odell Beckham, Jr.'s 89-Yard Punt Return Tied Things Up For LSU Against Ole Miss
In a run that reminded old-timers of Billy Cannon's feat against the Rebels in 1959, LSU's Odell Beckham, Jr. sprinted 89 yards on a punt return to tie things up between the Tigers and Ole Miss this afternoon and lending life to a seventh-ranked team that had up to that point left a usually "Deaf"...

Tony Parker Crossover Leaves Raymond Felton Confused
In fairness to Felton, it looks like he was anticipating the screen from Tim Duncan, and that he was trying to avoid it. Felton eventually figured out where Parker was going about an hour later, but the Knicks still won. They're now 6-and-fucking-0....
