Chris Paul Reminds Us Who The Point God Is
The real bummer about last night's game between the Thunder and Clippers is that it turned into a blowout fairly quickly, and not just because blowouts suck. See, if the Thunder had managed to keep it close, Chris Paul probably would have dropped 60 on those suckers....
Eric LeGrand Will Speak At Rutgers's Commencement After All
Calling it a "miscommunication" (a pretty freaking big one, and one that apparently took 14 hours to clear up), Rutgers has announced that paralyzed former football player Eric LeGrand will indeed give a commencement speech....
Police Report: Jameis Winston Avoided Store Security
Surveillance video shows Jameis Winston appearing to go out of his way to avoid walking past store security with his 30-odd dollars worth of crab legs, perhaps putting the lie to his claim to officers that he had forgotten to pay. ...
Blake Griffin Baits Serge Ibaka Into A Technical Foul
Griffin and Ibaka have a history that includes Ibaka smoking Griffin in the nuts, but this one is all Griffin. After being knocked down on the baseline, Griffin acts the role of pest and definitely locks up Ibaka's leg and practically begs him to lash out, or fall. Ibaka lashed out and was charged w...
Former NHL Ref Kerry Fraser: Mighty Ducks Onside For "Flying V"
Former NHL referee Kerry Fraser reviewed some of the more egregious moments from The Mighty Ducks and breaks down the clear penalties and even the moments that only a screenwriter could dream up, including the "Flying V." But don't worry, the Ducks were onside for the iconic...skating formation. ...
These Emails Confirm That ESPN's Darren Rovell Is A Sensitive Penis
Remember when ESPN business reporter and post-human Darren Rovell narced out a guy on Twitter for cracking a joke at his expense? At the time, a lot of people figured Rovell was just blustering. Surely, they thought, he’s not so big a baby that he’d tattle on someone just for busting on him on the i...
Seantrel Henderson Failed A Drug Test At The Combine
Adam Schefter reports that former Miami offensive tackle Seantrel Henderson flunked a drug test at the scouting combine, testing positive for marijuana. Either he successfully brought his own weed across state lines, or was able to locate some during just a few days in Indianapolis—that's good hustl...

Paul Pierce And Kevin Garnett Couldn't Stop Gushing About Toronto Fans
The real star of the thrilling first-round series between the Nets and Raptors turned out to be Toronto itself. The success-starved sports town brought its A-game, even as Brooklyn prevailed in seven, to the point where the Nets' biggest stars had nothing but love for the opposing fans....
The NBA Will Appoint Someone To Run The Clippers For Now
Donald Sterling's pushed out of the NBA for life, but no one's bought the Clippers yet. (That may take a while if Sterling goes to court.) Who will run the team in the meantime?...
Rolling Bachelor Party Headed For Kentucky Derby Finds Dead Body In RV
A road trip to the Kentucky Derby sounds like a pretty cool bachelor party (for everyone except the driver, anyway). You get yourself some of your closest friends and put them in an RV with some beers and you've got yourself a weekend. This all presupposes, of course, that you don't find a corpse hi...
The 2012 Olympic Relay Team Just Lost Their Silver Medals
When Tyson Gay was busted for doping last June, and then immediately fessed up to his transgressions, everyone expected that he'd cooperate with USADA in exchange for a lighter punishment. What they did not expect was that he'd sell out his relay teammates from the 2012 Olympics....
Zach Randolph Is Suspended For Game 7. This Is Some Bullshit.
The NBA just announced that Zach Randolph will be suspended for Game 7 tomorrow night. The league says that it's for punching Steven Adams in the jaw. We would contend, if Z-Bo punches a man in the jaw, he's going to fall a lot harder than that. ...

People is reporting that supermodel Adriana Lima and former NBA player Marko Jaric have broken up, meaning they're both on the market. We know what you're thinking, and don't worry: We've got you covered. Here are some of the hottest pics we could find....

Meet Kyle Lowry. He's Very Good (And Probably Not A Giant Asshole).
NBA fans have known for a while that Kyle Lowry is pretty damn good. But that respect was an abstract one: Lowry's value was an acknowledged fact, if not one with specific dimensions. He's good, but why? He plays in a far away land, is never on national TV and has made more headlines for the trade ...
Bruins Condemn Fans Who Tweeted Racist Crap At P.K. Subban
From team president Cam Neely:...
What Do The Sharks Do Now? If They're Smart, Nothing.
The San Jose Sharks, already widely considered the chokingest team in hockey history, bolstered their reputation on Wednesday night. Now they've got a big decision: soldier on with the same pieces, or blow the whole thing up. Hopefully they keep in mind the fact that no one ever got better by blowin...
The Blackhawks Use Advanced Analytics. Shouldn't Your Team?
Let's play a game. I like to call it "Guess Which NHL GM's Team is a Cup Contender and Which One is Golfing." Today's contestants are Chicago's Stan Bowman, from a fascinating piece in the Sun-Times, and Calgary's Brian Burke, from a radio interview a couple of days ago....
Jeremy Guthrie Chucked A Ball Into The Upper Deck
Royals starter Jeremy Guthrie, presumably upset about a home run allowed earlier in the inning, snagged a line drive for the third out and hurled that sonofabitch to the heavens. ...
