How Jim Leyland Gave Mariano Rivera The Perfect Moment
For all its aggressive pointlessness, the All-Star Game can do ceremony like none other. Last night was maybe the best example of that since 1999, when baseball's All-Century Team took the field at Fenway: Mariano Rivera, with just a few more months left in his singular career, had the field all to ...

This Goal Is The Most American Goal That Has Ever Been Scored, Probably
The United States played Costa Rica last night in what proved to be the US men's national team's first competitive match so far in the Gold Cup. And for 82 minutes, the game sucked.

This Fan Caught Four Foul Balls In One Game
The best part about this is that Greg Van Niel is not a ballhawk, that execrable subspecies who attend games solely for the purpose of collecting baseballs. Van Niel's just a regular fan, who happened to be sitting in the exact right spot to get four foul balls yesterday, all by the fifth inning....

Aussie Rules Football Player Scores Goal, Falls Down In Same Motion
Despite Australian Rules Football being one of our favorite sports here, we don't cover it often because pesky issues like time zones lead to matches being played while most of us are drunk or asleep. That's a shame, because at least two matches a week are aired here live, and they're almost always...

Joakim Noah Scores A Soccer Goal, Loses His Mind
This is from Steve Nash's annual charity soccer match in New York last month (there's a second one in L.A. this Sunday). On a team with Stuart Holden, Sacha Kljestan, Sammy Ameobi, and Oguchi Onyewu, it fell to Joakim Noah to score the game-winning goal. No need to act like he's been there before, b...

The New York Mets Rank First In The Majors At Videobombing
Jeremy Hefner's been one of the few bright spots for the New York Mets lately, so it figures his teammates would do everything possible to clown on him while he provided an interview to SNY before tonight's game in San Francisco. Laid-back and fun-loving? Sounds like a winning combination to me!...
