Arsenal Fans Throw A Banana On The Pitch
It's being reported as a banana thrown at Gareth Bale, but that does not really make much sense. Not that racism makes sense, but usually the racist European soccer fan reserves his banana-related taunts for black players. As you see in the video, the referee clearly picks up a banana thrown on th...

17 Sports Moments That Will Restore Your Faith In Humanity
It's been a rough week in the sports world for those of us who put faith in our fellow man and woman. From NASCAR drivers' alleged bigotry, to NFL execs wanting to know if Manti Te'o is gay, to a youth hockey coach being sentenced for tripping a little kid, it's tough to look at the sports world ...

Guy With YouTube Account Says He Is Michael Jordan's Neglected Illegitimate Son
Once upon a time, bad fathers were easily shamed with one spin of a Harry Chapin single. That's not how things get done anymore. Now spurned sons talk into their webcams and tell America to follow them on Instagram....

Here's A Weird Arnold-Schwarzenegger-Themed Music Video We Found
The Arnold Classic, one of the biggest stops on the professional bodybuilding tour, is going on in Columbus, Ohio, this weekend. To mark the occasion, here's "Arnold," by Australian DJ Luke Million, spliced with clips and samples from 1977's Pumping Iron. It's strange and we like it....

Miami Heat Do The Harlem Shake, <i>SportsCenter</i> Explains It For The Stupids
The Heat released their Harlem Shake video yesterday, and as much as we'd like to call this a dead meme, it's racked up 2.3 million views in under a day. It's watchable as far as these go because of who's in it: where else but in your Stygian nightmares can you see Chris Andersen flapping towards ...

The Best Videos Of The Week
LeBron blows our minds with a pregame dunk, a high schooler makes the best recruiting mixtape ever, a college outfielder defies the laws of physics, a news anchor doesn't recognize Mo Farah, and a first-time ski jumper has some issues. Here are the best videos of the week....

CNN Sports Guy Asks News Anchor How Many Hot Dogs She Can Eat, Is "Turned On" By Her Answer
When CNN ditched Sports Illustrated as its in-house sports arm and instead went to new acquisition Bleacher Report last month, we were alarmed. After all, SI has decades of work attesting to its journalistic pedigree while b/r has this. We expected Bleacher Report to quickly drag CNN down to its "...

D-Leaguer's Agent Really Wants You To Know His Client Dunked On Someone Tall
Chris Roberts is a 6-foot-4 guard who has bounced around the D-League for three years since going undrafted out of Bradley in 2010. Last night, Roberts dunked all over 7-5 Will Foster of the Sioux Falls Skyforce, and his agent was awfully proud of him for it. This was the email the agent sent us a...

Today's The Anniversary Of That <em>Other</em> Miracle On Ice
Last Friday was the anniversary of the Miracle on Ice, the U.S.'s semifinal win over a terrifying Russian side at the 1980 Olympics. It was noted, as it is every year, since it's the greatest moment in American hockey history, and marketable too—Mike Eruzione took the auspicious day to auction off...

"You Don't Have To Act Like A Baby": Mike Milbury Goes Off On Alex Ovechkin
It's all gone wrong for the Capitals, sitting firmly in last place in the East. (They do have a game in hand on the Islanders, which is a very sad parenthetical to write.) Fairly or not, much of the blame has fallen on Alexander Ovechkin, once a consensus Top-2 player in the world, now painted as ...

Steph Curry Found His Swagger
This is what Steph Curry was put on Earth to do: shoot. We've seen him do magic on the floor this year, from this frankly unfair bounce pass to a pair of filthy crossovers just two nights ago. But he's a pure shooter, and for 48 minutes at MSG—you don't take out a hand that hot—he shot. Pure. ...

"The Dagger Has Been Retracted": Wizards Play-By-Play Man Calls Game-Winner That Wasn't
You can't really blame Steve Buckhantz for this one. From his seat (and from the first angle) it really did look like Trevor Ariza sealed an incredible Wizards comeback against the Pistons and a "Dagger!" was absolutely warranted. Unfortunately, after the first view of the shot there is the second...

Mickael Pietrus Interrupts NBA TV Segment With Dancing Routine
NBA TV Canada broadcasters Paul Jones and Sherman Hamilton were just trying to get in a few league news and notes before Toronto's losing effort in Cleveland tonight when in came Mickael Pietrus....

Virgil Is In A New York City Subway Car Right Now
Tipster Joe provides us with our latest Virgil sighting. He's still in New York, and he's currently riding the Queens-bound N train through Manhattan. The photo is rather blurry, but we know Virgil's sad mug when we see it....

Turkish Soccer Fans, Banned From Stadium, Manage To Launch Flares Onto Pitch Anyway
Istanbul club Fenerbahçe's Europa League match last Thursday was a sight to behold. The game was played in an empty stadium as punishment for a December match in which fans hurled fireworks onto the pitch, so the team set up a large viewing screen outside. Fans launched dozens of flares attached t...

Paul Bissonnette Has A Three-Game Point Streak, Is History's Greatest Hockey Player
You probably know Coyotes big man Paul Bissonnette as an enforcer, and also as some guy from Twitter. But here's what you may not have known about the force known as Biz Nasty: He's earth's greatest hockey player, probably ever....

Did Tom Crean Tell His Indiana Players To Flop Late In Last Night's Loss To Minnesota? Here's What He Said, According To A Lip Reader
Down five with less than 30 seconds remaining last night in Minneapolis, the top-ranked Indiana Hoosiers found themselves in a bind: They needed points, but first they needed the ball. One way to achieve both without losing precious seconds was by somehow drawing an offensive flagrant foul on Min...

How To Make A Highlight Reel Without Any Highlights: Tips From The Creator Of The Best Recruiting Mixtape Ever
This is the recruiting reel of Rich Tran, a senior tight end/linebacker for Dominion High School in Virginia, and as the intro warns, Be Prepared. There's Tran, No. 81, throwing a block ... on the side of the field away from the ball. There's Tran, standing on the sideline, cheering on his Titan t...

Struggling Wisconsin Player Resorts To Jumpshot Free Throws
There was a time when Wisconsin guard/forward Ryan Evans wasn't the sort of shooter who'd have trouble standing on a dock and tossing a ball into Lake Mendota. He shot 73 percent from the line last year, 81 percent in conference play. But the yips overtook him this season, and going into last nigh...
