And You Didn't Think It Was Possible To Score A Header From 63 Yards Out
Ryujiro Ueda, a defender for J-League team Fagiano Okayama, enters the record books with the longest header goal in soccer (or at least YouTube) history. He owes at least a share of the record to the goalkeeper, who supplies the kinetic energy and misplays the ball perfectly. [Daily Mail]...

Prestigious Sportswriter Makes Prestigious Publication For His Kim Kardashian Tweet
I think we'll all remember today as the day the internet made the same three jokes 80,000 times.

On Friday, West Virginia announced that they're heading to the Big 12, which was a poorly kept secret. So poorly kept that the Big East has been preparing a lawsuit to force them to honor the terms of their agreement: that departing schools must stay in the conference for 27 months before leaving.

Avid mid-major college football watchers (yes, we exist) have noticed this for awhile, and YouTuber wtem980 has been so kind as to compile this video of the young lady whose task it is to be at TCU head coach Gary Patterson's side at all times to supply him with hydration (I assume it's water, bu...
The Chargers Sent A Concussed Player Back Into The Game, And Then He Had A Seizure
