Low-Budget Pitbull Imitator Produces Nauseating "Do The Mark Sanchez" Video

Fox News Interviewed Donald Trump About The Retirement Of "Arizona Cardinals" Manager Tony La Russa
Elsewhere this would be called a chyronfail, but the juxtaposition of Donald Trump explaining his deep friendship with Tony La Russa to Greta Van Susteren makes it worth the video clip.

Lee Stempniak transmitted a check through Alexander Edler and the plexiglass to knock a crisp frosty brew out of the hands of one unlucky fan, who really should have waited for a break in the action to walk back to his front row seats, the entitled jackass.

Erin Andrews Struggles With Math Concepts
Erin Andrews made a trip to Baton Rouge and toured LSU's football facilities as part of ESPN's "SEC All-Access" series. As you might expect, it's not exactly hard-hitting.
