Pavel Datsyuk Scores Goal After Skating Through Entire Team
This is hockey's version of going coast-to-coast, though with a much greater degree of difficulty.

The Preds went on ...

(See: LeBron James saving Cleveland's season in G...

Maryland Scores Stunning Upset: Makes Mike Krzyzewski Sound Reasonable
Maryland upset Duke yesterday 83-81 and the students rushed the court after Quinn Cook's desperation half-court shot clanged off the rim.

Sparkler-Brandishing Man Leads "Fuck Duke" Chant
There is something about this video that is just...pleasing. I can't tell if it's the unedited, found-footage peek-into-life-as-it-occurs vibe, the contrast of light triumphant over dark or something else....
Someone Impaled The Duke Mascot's Head On A Stake Above UNC's Campus Store
