Here's Penn State Coach Bill O'Brien Doing An Impression Of His Mother
Bill O'Brien just concluded a stand-up routine coaches' caravan tour around Pennsylvania. Yesterday, he addressed whether he said "fuckers" or "fighters" on live TV after the Nittany Lions' season-ending win against Wisconsin. Turns out even his mother thought it might not have been "fighters."...

Umps Don't Give A Shit As Astros Make Illegal Pitching Change

Astros Fan Behind Home Plate Really Wants You To See His Fake Dong
We pride ourselves on vigilance to behind-the-plate fan frivolity, what with jackasses pantomiming blowjobs at Wrigley or dudes outfitting themselves in Marlins gear during non-Marlins postseason games.

Yep, Charles Barkley Still Wants To Kill Skip Bayless
It's been eight years since Charles Barkley first said Skip Bayless was "one of the two people I'd like to kill." He's done little to hide his contempt for Bayless's jackassery ever since. Two nights ago on TNT, Barkley delightfully reminded us his hatred will never die....

Joe Girardi Batted His Pitcher Eighth And Had Vernon Wells Play Third
I don't know how much of this was Girardi and how much was The Binder, but somehow, for some reason, Joe Girardi managed a May game against the Rockies like it was an 18-inning World Series Game 7. And it...worked?...

Bear Vs. Monkey Bicycle Race Ends With Bear Eating Monkey
Oh god, China....

Klay Thompson Does A Damn Good Steph Curry Impersonation
Game 2 goes to Golden State, on the backs of an unconscious Klay Thompson and some crucial makes from Steph Curry. If not for a once-in-a-decade San Antonio comeback, they would be up 2-0.

Kris Letang Cross-Checked A Linesman. That's A Suspension...Right?
Between Eric Gryba getting two games for a borderline hit that resulted in injury, and nobody from this Sens-Habs mess being punished, NHL playoff discipline seems even more "spin the wheel" than usual. But shoving an official would seem pretty clear-cut, no?...

White Sox Pitcher Hector Santiago Forgets His Turn To Bat
Hector Santiago pitched so well last night that the Mets' Matt Harvey didn't even get the win even though he took a perfect game into the seventh inning. But when he was due to hit with two outs in the sixth, Santiago was nowhere to be found. Stupid interleague play....

Wrestler Moonsaults Himself Out Of The Ring, With Disastrous Results
If you're even going to try a corkscrew moonsault, always be sure to be balanced properly before launching yourself skyward. Failing that, you should at least be certain to leap in the right direction. Sigh. You know what? Whatever you do, don't do anything this guy did....

Joel Hanrahan Fastball Punctures Hole In Sign
