Keg Hockey Is Hockey Played With Fire Hoses And A Keg
I'm not really sure if I need to go any further in depth than that. This video is from 2010, but I've never seen, nor heard of, "Keg Hockey" before in my life, so excuse my ignorance if this is old hat for some of you. I even grew up around the corner from a volunteer fire house and all they ever ...
"I Am A Little Worried To Be...On The Electronics": Thunder Storm Terrorizes Professional Baseball Grounds Crew
Courtesy of Aaron Morse, the voice you hear broadcasting, comes video of this wild thunder storm rain delay. The game between the Joliet Slammers and Southern Illinois Miners on Friday night was delayed for rain and what appears to be heavy winds. The grounds crew put down the tarp and even, accor...
TV People Can't Pronounce "Wimbledon" Correctly
This year's Wimbledon has featured a number of striking upsets—none more shocking than Rosol over Nadal yesterday—which means the event has drawn attention from media outlets less familiar with sport's most famous fortnight than usual....
ESPN's Draft Coverage Buzzword: "Rim"
ESPN's NBA draft coverage has become so predictable it's inspired its own drinking game (one Jay Bilas even referenced on the broadcast). Every year features a buzzword like "length," "scorer," or the always-controversial "character."...
Elton Brand: Not So Great At Soccer
Wednesday was Steve Nash's charity soccer game in Manhttan, and it provided a chance for both Salomon Kalou and Elton Brand to show off their skills. Kalou, most recently with Chelsea, took advantage of the opportunity. Brand just whiffed completely. [via The700Level]...
NBA Draft Spectators Spent Nearly Five Full Minutes Booing David Stern Last Night
The NBA is sometimes accused of being deaf to criticism, and holding last night's draft in the arena recently abandoned by the new Brooklyn Nets seems like an invitation to belligerence. But it's not just Nets fans who have beef with commissioner David Stern, and he hasn't exactly been graceful w...
Child At Astros Game Catches Foul Ball In Popcorn Bucket
Glove? Who needs a glove? What you see in the video below is proof that it's possible to catch a baseball with butterfingers....
Nets Fans Will Get Excited For Anything—Even Drafting A Guy Of Whom They've Never Heard
Brooklyn Nets fans had to wait a long time to participate in the NBA draft—the team had no picks last year and didn't select until late in the second round tonight. So when the team chose Turkish forward Ilkan Karaman with the 57th overall pick, they didn't let their unfamiliarity with the big ma...
Why Bernard James Should Be Your New Favorite NBA Player
The first round of the 2012 NBA Draft was a surprisingly dramatic affair, with one NBA scout equating most all pre-draft analysis to "blowing smoke up each other's asses for weeks." But the best story, arguably, came near beginning of the second round when Florida State center Bernard James was se...
Andy Katz Is The Latest To Be Victimized By "Bulging Dicks"
ESPN's Steve Levy originated the "bulging dicks" blooper, and since then we've seen it committed by, among others, Al Trautwig and Ricky Bottalico....

Here's A Really Gross Track Injury Video You Shouldn't Watch
Watched it once. Visibly recoiled at the slow-motion replay toward the end. Maybe you're made of sterner stuff. It's Bulgarian sprinter Georgi Kirilov Georgiev, dislocating his knee and snapping his leg while approaching the finish line in the 100m at the European Championships. You've been warned...
Angry Baseball Takes Out Aggression On Umpire Brian Gorman's Face
Not really sure how we should interpret this one. Was it a completely random occurrence? Does Eric Hosmer have some beef with Brian Gorman we don't know about? Or are the balls, after so much atrocious umpiring this season, finally rebelling in a futile effort to regain control of the game they've m...
Prince Fielder Found Himself In A Rundown, And Somehow Emerged Safely
Prince Fielder hit the deck no fewer than three times during tonight's Tigers loss in Arlington to the Rangers, but did so no more bizarrely than here in which the portly first baseman ran his way out of a rundown, waving his arms like a man fleeing a burning building along the way....
This At-Bat Captures The Sublime Ridiculousness Of Men's Slow-Pitch Softball
Literally dozens of people came out to ASA Hall of Fame Stadium tonight in Oklahoma City to see the USA Futures defeat the USA National Team in a 38-37 win, decided on a tag out at the plate on the final play. However, the first two outs of the inning came when two players hit home runs, actual fa...
Mike Trout Continues To Do Ridiculous, Impossible Baseball Things
This is Angels center fielder Mike Trout's first full season in the majors. He's not only made his mark at the plate (league-leading .331 batting average) and on the bases (league-leading 21 stolen bases) but in the field as well....
Because This Stuff Never Gets Old, Here's Carmelo Anthony Scaring People By Pretending To Be A Wax Figure
Melo got his sculpture at Madame Tussauds in Times Square yesterday, and in between saying things like "my time is coming," he did that thing where he stands stock-still until unsuspecting ticket-buyers get close enough to spook. There were no reactions as magical as this one, but Anthony's timing...
Pitching Prospect Stops Line Drive With Face
Scary moment last night for Gerrit Cole, the No. 1 overall choice in last year's MLB draft. Cole was making just his second start for the Altoona Curve, the Pirates' Double-A affiliate, when what you see in the video above happened in the first inning. Cole somehow finished the inning by facing th...
Youth Hockey Coach Arrested On Charges He Tripped An Opposing Player In The Handshake Line

A.J. Hawk Shoves Guy Into Lake During Pickup Football Game
A number of Buckeye alums in the NFL, including A.J. Hawk, Troy Smith, Doug Datish and Bobby Carpenter, took part in a charity golf tournament over the weekend. The event, in Warren, Ohio, raised money for a group providing after-school programs for at-risk youth, so that's great. Even better was ...
