How Marshall Henderson Gets Away With Being Marshall Henderson
On Sunday night, we said goodbye to Ole Miss guard Marshall Henderson, college basketball's most exciting troll, a sort of human "u mad bro?" who did everything to antagonize his opponents short of popping motorcycle wheelies at halfcourt with their girlfriends riding pillion. He and the 12th-seeded...

American Soccer Fans Get Pelted By Beers At U.S.A.-Mexico World Cup Qualifier
Even though last night's World Cup qualifying match between the United States and Mexico ended in a tie, it was essentially a victory for the American team, which came into the game with a 0-13-2 record in World Cup qualifiers at Estadio Azteca. The game left the American contingent of fans at the ...
Worried About The Sochi Weather, Russia Has Begun Hoarding Snow For The Olympics
With the Olympics serving, in a larger geopolitical sense, as a jingoistic opportunity to laugh at everything that goes wrong, host cities sure spend a lot of time and money on the one thing they can't actually control: the weather.

Mr. T Scored From Center Ice, And It Might've Been The Greatest Moment In Hockey History
For the second straight Blackhawks game, a Chicago-native celebrity tried his hand at the "Shoot the Puck" intermission contest. But while Monday brought a rambling, possibly drunk Jim Belushi, last night saw a no-nonsense Mr. T show the puck and the United Center who's still the boss....
<em>Room 237</em> Will Make You Love <em>The Shining</em> All Over Again
One of the saddest things about the death of a favorite filmmaker is realizing that you'll probably never see any new movie from him ever again.

Ryan Lochte Is Getting A Reality Show And It Looks So Dumb
Reality TV is inherently shitty, so it's hard to judge Olympic gold medalist and über-bro Ryan Lochte too harshly for laying What Would Ryan Lochte Do? at our feet. A guy's gotta do what he can to stay relevant these days. ...
The LA Kings And LA Galaxy Have To Share A White House Visit
