The Best Ending To A National Kickball Tournament Match You'll Ever See
You're watching extra innings of a quarterfinals match at a national kickball tournament in Harrisburg, Pa., this past weekend. (Our sender-inner promises "it isn't as douchey as it sounds," and we'll agree. Kickball might be the sport of choice for children and hipsters, but it's still really, re...
Dustin Brown Sums Up Joy Of Winning Stanley Cup With Big Ol' F-Bomb On Live TV
Pierre McGuire had just asked Los Angeles Kings captain Dustin Brown whether he could have envisioned this moment several months back. And after mumbling something about never knowing what might happen and considering his words for an instant, Brown cuts right to the chase. From here on out, anyon...
And Now There's (Really Sweaty) Video Of Rob Gronkowski Dancing Shirtless After A Weekend Charity Event
We told you earlier about Rob Gronkowski's appearance Saturday night at a Children's Hospital charity event in Boston, after which he danced shirtless and may or may not have purposely dumped a drink on a woman. Well, thanks to our intrepid friends at Busted Coverage, now you can watch him pump hi...
The Rays Need To Upgrade Their Bullpen Phone Plan
Joe Maddon had some instructions for his bullpen, but the landline call at Marlins Park just wouldn't go through. He couldn't use a carrier pigeon, and he couldn't send a telegram, so Maddon improvised as best he could: He dispatched infielder Will Rhymes to deliver the message. The human element be...
Car Cuts Across Infield To T-Bone Rival Racer, Drivers Get Out And Fight
Not many details on this, other than it comes from Saturday evening at the Sportsdrome Speedway in Jeffersonville, Ind., a track that features front-wheel drive and figure-eight racing, two of the more amateur and collision-friendly forms of stock car racing. I don't know what the green car did to...
Polish Riot Police Vs. Croatian Hooligans—Who Ya Got?
We knew Polish police came prepared for Euro 2012, pants-pissing sound cannons and all. And we expected Eastern European fans to make trouble, because that's what they do. (UEFA has already opened an investigation into racist abuse from Russian fans.) But it turns out our first battle in the stree...
Bill Murray Entertains Minor League Baseball Fans During Rain Delay, Dives Head First On Tarp
Apparently, part of Bill Murray's duties as part owner of the Charleston RiverDogs, a Class-A affiliate of the New York Yankees, is to serve as Director of Fun. The Director can be seen here rounding the tarp-covered bases and taking a nice sloppy tumble dive into tarp-covered home....
Indians Closer Chris Perez Celebrated Earning His 20th Save By Projectile Vomiting All Over The Mound
Indians closer Chris Perez has been lights-out this season, and handcuffed St. Louis today in locking up a 4-1 Cleveland win. He did this, it seems, while suffering some degree of gastrointestinal distress—though given that he's done this before, maybe it's some kind of gross calling card....
Here Is A Seething Bob Costas Trying To Conduct A Post-Race Interview At The Belmont Stakes
Who won the Belmont Stakes? Who knows, it's not important. We're not degenerate gamblers, are we? This is fun, though. As Bob Neumeier attempted to kick it over to Bob Costas who was with Steve Duncker, chairman of NYRA, there was some confusion on Costas's end....
Here Are All Of LeBron's Unspectacular 45 Points
Watching a supercut of LeBron James's scores in last night's parquet floorwiping of the Celtics, you're struck at how rote it seems. A cold, clinical series of possessions that resembled nothing so much as a practice drill that just happened to have five green-and-white clad obstacles on the court...
You Can't Lose A Playoff Hockey Game More Excruciatingly Than This
I've probably watched this video 10 times, and I still can't understand how the puck, shot from the red line, hits the side boards in the corner, and somehow finds its way back to the goal mouth and into the net. In a 0-0 game. In overtime. In the AHL Calder Cup finals. On a goal that may have bee...
Maria Menounos Loves The Boston Celtics More Than You Do
Nope, don't even try. There's no topping fandom of this magnitude....
Derek Lowe Lets Everybody Know He's Done For The Day By Slamming A Cooler Full Of Ice
After he gave up seven earned runs on nine hits in five innings against the Tigers this afternoon, Derek Lowe was probably going get lifted by Indians manager Manny Acta. The Cleveland broadcast crew noticed that someone—Scott Barnes?—had begun warming up in the bullpen, but they didn't know for sur...

An occasional series featuring our readers' tales of momentary sports glory. If you've got a video of your own brush with athletic greatness, send it to [email protected], subject: Glory Days....
Curt Schilling's 38 Studios Files For Bankruptcy, Faces Federal Investigation
We presume this is how 38 Studios' lawyers opened their conversation with Curt Schilling: "What do you want first? The bad news, or the worse news?"...
Watch Mark Reynolds Strike Out 100 Times In Two Minutes
Last week, Baltimore Orioles first baseman/third baseman/designated hitter Mark Reynolds broke the record for fastest player to 1,000 career strikeouts. According to the Elias Sports Bureau, the record had belonged to Russell Branyan. But Branyan didn't get to set the record until 2010, when he w...
Metta World Peace Does The Weather
Somewhere, in a parallel universe, the Lakers won the Western Conference last night in a final hurrah for an aging team. Here in this universe, the Lakers are out, the Thunder are moving on, and Metta World Peace is a weatherman in Vancouver....
Kurt Busch Compares A Rough Night On The Track To "Premature Ejaculation"
It wasn't a good night for resident NASCAR idiot Kurt Busch at the Prelude to the Dream, an annual dirt-track charity race that costs $25 on pay-per-view. Busch, who is already suspended from this weekend's race at Pocono Raceway for threatening to beat up a Sporting News reporter last Saturday, ran...
Kings Coach Darryl Sutter Doesn't Understand Your Question, Sir
It's almost as if Los Angeles Kings coach Darryl Sutter would've preferred hoisting the Stanley Cup tonight rather than fielding inane questions that both misidentify and mispronounce players' names. (C'mon, LA media, this is getting ridiculous.) Puck Daddy's got the rough transcript, though it la...
"Good Job, Good Effort" Kid Identified As World's Best Miami Heat Fan
Nine-year-old Jack Meyer of Coral Gables, Florida, is not, to some's chagrin, the world's trolliest troll of a Celts fan. He's actually an insanely upbeat Heat fan, and that's kind of awesome. NBC Miami interviewed the youngster earlier today to try and get a sense of what it was like to become the...
