Digger Phelps Does Not Like To Be Touched
ESPN's resident college basketball crank Digger Phelps has let some bad blood boil with fellow analyst Fran Fraschilla today—especially regarding how the North Carolina-NC State game ended—but Phelps's disdain for Fraschilla is no more apparent than in this clip, when Digger really, really does n...

Last Night's Arena Football Season-Opener Was A Farce
Arena Football's 25th season kicked off last night, but it would be a stretch to call what was played in Orlando "football." A players' strike hours before kickoff meant both teams mostly used replacement players selected in a draft before the game, leaving NFL Network announcers without rosters a...

Whatever Jenn Sterger Is Doing At <em>The Daily</em>, Please, God, Make It Stop
Jenn Sterger is sorta-famous for two reasons. First, she got herself on TV at FSU games wearing low-cut outfits. Second, she received photos of a penis that was almost certainly attached to Brett Favre. That's not what one would call a distinguished resume. But it's good enough to land a job at Th...

North Carolina State Rode This Buzzer-Beating Four-Point Play To An Upset Over Virginia
N.C. State continued its improbable run in the ACC tournament, dispatching Virginia 67-64 after erasing a Hoos lead with this Scott Wood buzzer-beater at the end of the first half....

Here's An All-Time Great Hockey Coach Freakout
The gentleman in the suit throwing equipment on the ice is Marlin Murray, coach of the Dauphin Kings. Sort of a contradictory city/team name combination, but that doesn't change the fact that the Manitoba Junior Hockey League is serious business. Perhaps upset with the fact that his opponents rece...

Since Robin Ventura's Back In Baseball, The Rangers Will Stop Showing That Video Of Nolan Ryan Beating Him Up
Last year, Texas showed the famous 1993 brawl between the Rangers and White Sox before every single game. Maybe you think it's weird for a team to air highlights of their president and CEO, but then again your team's president and CEO has probably never pummeled a man. (Unless you're a Marlins fan...

David Beckham Has Beer Thrown At Him, Freaks Out, Sets Up Late Game-Tying Goal Anyway
L.A. Galaxy star and future action hero David Beckham found himself perturbed late in last night's CONCACAF Champions League tie at Rogers Centre when Toronto fans greeted him for a late corner kick with streamers and, eventually, a can of Heineken Alexander Keith's....

Fear, Defined: PGA Golfer Hits His Drive Directly At You, And You're On Top Of A Crane
Skyjacks and other individuals who make their living at high elevation get paid well because the fear of heights—also known as acrophobia—is far from uncommon. We're also built to avoid hard objects flying at us at high speed, which is why this clip from today's WGC-Cadillac Championship round fro...

Shaking The Basket Is Not The Best Way To Try To Distract A Free-Throw Shooter
Because people are going to notice, and they're going to stop the game, and they're going to tell you to cut it out. Just like what happened when a few Montana fans gave it a go during last night's Big Sky final against Weber State....

Neymar Basically Dribbled A Ball Into The Goal From 70 Yards Yesterday
Santos star and Brazilian international Neymar has been linked time and again, often prematurely, to transfers to big European clubs. But Neymar is still in Brazil, perhaps because he can do things there like dribble the entire length of the field without someone giving him a tumble, which is what...
