Knicks Run Razzle Dazzle Fastbreak For Alley-Oop Dunk
Sure, after three quarters the Knicks are losing to the Houston Rockets by 24 on their way to a league leading 34th loss, but at least these three guys were able to run this nicely souped-up fastbreak! ...
Mario Balotelli Caught Sliding Into Some Teenage Girls' Instagram DMs
Most of the time, Mario Balotelli is really good at Instagram. Sometimes, though, he messes up. First, it was posting a dumb internet meme (that, to be fair, elicited an even dumber response by the braindead English FA). Now, we find him hitting on a couple 19-year-old Icelandic girls in their DMs...
Dumbest Man Alive Gives Dumbest Possible Explanation For Dumb HOF Vote
This year, I decided to make my life a little happier by giving up on my usual winter pastime of hate-reading terrible Hall of Fame columns written by trolls and gibbering nitwits. Stan Keister of the Hackensack Courier-Educator-Herald voted for no one and spent his entire column on the greatness of...
Amazon Pulls Gronk Erotica After Objections Over Cover Art
The Boston Globe is reporting Amazon is no longer selling A Gronking To Remember after complaints about the Gronk photo on the cover featuring a tribute to Myra Kraft, a patch worn by the team during the 2011 season.

Do You Know Joseph Randle? Let's Talk.
We get tips at Deadspin. We find some to be true; we find some to be bogus. A few weeks ago, we received some interesting information about Cowboys running back Joseph Randle. We want to figure out if it's in the former category....
The Revolution Delayed After Newspaper Retracts Realest Cop Quote Ever
For a brief time earlier today, shit got very real when a Kentucky newspaper, The News-Enterprise, printed that “Hardin County Sheriff John Ward said those who go into law enforcement typically do it because they have a desire to shoot minorities.” Seriously; it’s right here....
ESPN Wants Nothing To Do With The Knicks
When the NBA released the national TV schedule in August, the Knicks appeared across ESPN, ABC, and TNT a total of 16 times, tied for ninth most in the league. The NBA has long catered to fans of large market teams—the LOLakers got 20 national TV games even though everybody knew they would be awful ...
<i>Blood and Bone </i>Treats Michael Jai White Like The Badass Miracle He Is
America has failed as a society in many ways, and one of them is this: Michael Jai White is not a titanic movie star. There is no reason why Michael Jai White is not a titanic movie star. He can act. He has a calm, still, intimidating presence. He's handsome enough to play the love interest in a...
11 Sports GIFs That Will Restore Your Faith In Humanity
With terrorist attacks in the U.S. and France, a man throwing his five-year-old daughter off a bridge to her death, and more alleged Bill Cosby victims, it's tough to have a positive outlook on the world at large. As a public service, then, we searched to find eleven GIFs that will restore your fa...
Yeah, So, Andrew Wiggins Is Getting Good
There wasn't a whole lot to say about Andrew Wiggins in the early part of the season, because before dunking all over Kevin Love, he wasn't really doing much to get excited about. Lately, however, the 19-year-old rookie has started to look like a pretty damn good NBA player....
Greg Blue Sidewalk Slams Receiver
The title of this post is the entire description of this YouTube video, and it's all that needs to be said. The man is Greg Blue, and he sure does sidewalk slam the hell out of that receiver. ...
Don Lemon To American Human-Rights Lawyer: "Do You Support ISIS?"
Fresh off asking an alleged rape victim why she didn't just bite her attacker's dick off, CNN anchor Don Lemon is back to insulting his show's guests via his total lack of preparation and general clown-show routine. Or maybe he's just stupid. I don't know....

Forget Steve Ballmer, Body-Rollin' Mop Boy Is The Truth [Update: He's A Goddamn Fraud]
Everyone had a good laugh at Clippers owner Steve Ballmer when he Dadded the fuck out during a live Fergie performance at last night's Clippers game, but while we were all giggling at the sweaty bald man, we missed the real star of the show....
Here Is The All-Time "Albert Achievement Awards" Blooper Reel
Veteran announcer Marv Albert has been running blooper reels as a guest on David Letterman's program for decades. In his 126 appearances on either Late Night With David Letterman or Late Show, the "Albert Achievement Awards" (set, always, to that ragtime vamp) have established the canon of sports ...
Ralph Lawler Has The Flu, Broadcasts Most Of Clippers Game In A Mumble
Normally this is where I'd make a couple of jokes, but I'm honestly a bit concerned about longtime Clippers play-by-play man Ralph Lawler, who announced much of the second half of tonight's blowout win over the Lakers like the clip above, in a barely understandable mumble. Clippers radio announcer...
Introducing: The Shabazz Assist
Two years ago, Grantland's Kirk Goldsberry introduced the Kobe Assist, a new statistic that "proves that missing shots is sometimes just as valuable as making them." Goldsberry's analysis was interesting, but it left out a key component: the dunkpass. You see, Goldsberry examined what percentage o...
Roman Polak Messed Up By Slapshot To The Face
This is what Roman Polak looked like an hour after taking a slapshot to the face: kind of like he's the NHL's latest mumps victim, but then tried to cut the mumps out. He was just minding his own business in the first period of Wednesday night's game against the Capitals, pushing his man away from t...
Bad Knicks Goober Flings Hook Shot To Nowhere
That's Cole Aldrich, starting center for the New York Knicks, draining a sweet turnaround hook shot on the invisible ghost-hoop six feet to the right of the regular one. Good move....
