Leonard Fournette Wasn't Afraid Of The Steelers
Jags rookie running back Leonard Fournette finished yesterday’s win against the Steelers with 181 rushing yards on 28 carries.

Miami U. has been the MAC’s punching bag for a decade, but the hapless RedHawks had a chance to beat a very bad BGSU team with a first-and-goal from the one and less than two minutes left in the game.

Good Old Canada Has Gifted Us Another Onside Punt
You will be forgiven for not knowing what the hell is going on in this highlight, which shows a bunch of people moving around pre-snap, followed by a punt that seems to catch the broadcasters by surprise, followed by a man on the punting team recovering the punt, and then celebrating about it.

Bad Soccer Teams Should Stop Shooting Their Own Dicks Off By Playing From The Back
Hey, shitty teams.

This scourge must be stopped....
Basel Player Turns Into The Flash, Jets Down Entire Length Of Pitch And Scores

76ers Already In Midseason Form

Check Out This Romanian Soccer Dude's Boomerang-Curved Golazo
The only way Claudiu Bumba, winger for Romania’s Concordia Chianjna, was going to overcome the terrible angle and distance from which he decided to pop a shot in today’s match against Dinamo București was if he put a truly insane amount of curl on the ball to get it to fly into the far corner.

Sparta Rotterdam Keeper Saves Deluge Of Point-Blank Shots By Morphing Into Spider-Man
