Paul Pogba Finally Played Like Paul Pogba
Most every great player has a signature move, a thing they do to or with or around the ball that immediately clarifies for you that that one of 10 uniformly colored little blurs out there running with the ball is in fact, say, Arjen Robben and not Philipp Lahm. (In that instance, it’s Robben’s dangl...
Aroldis Chapman's Top Of The Eighth Was Designed To Make You Hate Baseball
Last night’s eight-out save by Aroldis Chapman featured the Cuban closer throwing 42 pitches to preserve the Cubs’ one-run lead to send the World Series back to Cleveland for a Game 6. At times, I was convinced that I would grow old and die before Chapman left the mound. ...

Swansea lost 3-2 to Arsenal this morning in Bob Bradley’s first game in charge, twice coming back from a two-goal deficit but ultimately failing to win any points.

Pissing Tour de France Rider Calls Peeping Cameraman A "Fucking Wanker"<em></em>
Highlights are hard to come by at the Tour de France.

The Ballad Of Po-Jung Wang, Bat-Flipping Maniac
Po-Jung Wang is a rookie in the Chinese Professional Baseball League, currently playing for the Lamigo Monkeys and hitting .398.
