Brian Kelly Explains Why He Shoved One Of His Assistants
Notre Dame head coach Brian Kelly owes a debt to the Miami Hurricanes and the officiating crew that allowed their insane kick-off return to stand, because I have a feeling the incident above would have gotten a lot more attention this weekend if there hadn’t been something else for college football ...

The Royals Won By Betting On The Mets To Botch The Job
I felt a little insane listening to the Fox booth lavish praise on the Royals for Eric Hosmer’s dash home to score the tying run on Lucas Duda’s bad throw. “Brilliant baserunning?” Did they see that throw? If Duda doesn’t peg a beer vendor, Hosmer is out and the game is over. ...
Dez Bryant Gets Rightfully Furious With Reporters

Terry Collins Made The Right Call On Matt Harvey And Still Screwed Up
It was a Mets season that began with, and briefly threatened to founder upon, questions of how many innings Matt Harvey would be allowed to throw, and for how many innings he’d be able to be effective. In the end, Harvey threw 216 innings—the most ever for a pitcher coming off of Tommy John surgery—...
Royals Toy With Mets Like A Cat With A Mouse, Kill Them, Win Series
With the Mets up 2-0 in the bottom of the eighth, manager Terry Collins and ace Matt Harvey argued about whether Harvey would pitch the ninth. He’d pitched a four-hit shutout up to that point, on 102 pitches, a high but not unreasonable number. Of course, the health of Harvey, who underwent Tommy Jo...

Tiger Woods' Former Caddy Says Working For Him Was Like Being His "Slave"
Steve Williams served as Tiger Woods’ caddy from 1999 to 2011, during which Woods dominated the PGA Tour, won 13 of his 14 Majors, and earned over $88 million. Williams recently wrote a book called “Out Of The Rough” about his time with Tiger, and he was very critical of Woods, of whom he once said ...
CBS Reporter Jamie Erdahl Reports Steve Smith Injury News She Got From A Fake Twitter Account
There’s nothing more ridiculous than fake Twitter accounts, but they persist because so many stupid people fall for them. One such person is CBS sideline reporter Jamie Erdahl, who quoted a fake Ian Rapoport report that Steve Smith’s injury was a torn Achilles tendon. The network had to quickly retr...
Steve Smith Suffers Catastrophic Leg Injury (UPDATE: Torn Achilles)
Steve Smith just secured a place on the top 10 all-time career receiving yardage list today against the Chargers, then went down with this gruesome injury to what appears to be his right Achilles later in the game on a seemingly routine tackle. He left the field with his head covered in a towel. ...
Report: Patrick Kane Unlikely To Be Charged In Rape Case
Three months ago, a Buffalo woman accused Patrick Kane of raping her at his home in nearby Hamburg, N.Y.

The Atlantic Coast Conference has suspended both the on-field officiating crew and the replay official for allowing Miami’s game-winning kickoff return to stand during last night’s game against Duke....
Daniel Murphy Blew It, But He Wasn't The Only One
The Mets had a great chance to tie the World Series up last night, taking a 3-2 lead into the eighth inning, only five outs away from the win. With runners on first and second, Eric Hosmer hit a manageable grounder to Daniel Murphy at second base. Instead of making the double play to end the inning ...
Pete Rose Is Leaving The World Series To Go Sign Autographs In Las Vegas
Did you like Pete Rose’s commentary work during the World Series? Well, either way, he didn’t work last night’s Game 4, and you won’t have a chance to see him work any more games for Fox. As it turns out, Rose left the booth rather suddenly—in the middle of the World Series—due to a “prior commitmen...
Steph Curry Is Even Better This Season
Last night, basketball’s best teeny-tiny point guard Steph Curry went up against the sexy pick to usurp him as league MVP, Anthony Davis, and put in the most impressive performance of this young season. He dropped 53 points on just 27 shots in 36 minutes, which is a gaudy efficiency, but remarkably,...
Kirk Herbstreit Scared Shitless By Zombies
Chris Fowler played a wonderful prank on Kirk Herbstreit tonight, surprising the ESPN analyst with some characters from the Eastern State Penitentiary haunted house during halftime of tonight’s Notre Dame-Temple game. It’s the first time a zombie has been on Saturday Night Football since Eminem’s ap...
