ESPN Grills Gronk About Patriots' Balls
Cheerful ogre Rob Gronkowski and Giants receiver Odell Beckham Jr. swung by ESPN this morning to plug some stuff about the Madden cover, but Jay Crawford and Chris McKendry (rightfully) took the opportunity to lob Ballghazi-related questions at Gronk, who answered them by talking about how he likes ...
Joel Ward Gets Hockey Better Than Lazy Sportswriters
Alexander Ovechkin guaranteed that the Capitals will win tonight’s Game 7. What if the Rangers win? Or, more trickily, what if the Caps win and Ovechkin doesn’t appear on the scoresheet? How would that reflect upon Ovechkin, who (unfairly) has gained a reputation as a scorer who can’t score in the m...
There's Still Nothing Quite Like A LeBron James Chasedown Block
Watching LeBron James suplex the Bulls last night felt like bumping into an old friend. He does this at least once every postseason, but the first big LeBron Game of the summer is always a pleasant reminder of just what the greatest player in the world is really capable of. Hey guys, LeBron is here,...
The Lightning's Future Starts Now
You don’t think the Lightning, who had seen a 3-0 series lead cut to 3-2, and faced the prospect of heading back to Montreal if they couldn’t close things out last night, weren’t feeling an absurd amount of pressure? “We were talking about this game like it was Game 7,” Steven Stamkos said....
The College Football Playoff Generated So Much Goddamn Money

There are a lot of great NHL playoff previews out there. You will not find one here, because gimme a break, I’m pretty busy. ...
6'1" Bryce Cotton Throws Down One-Handed Alley-Oop
My favorite thing about this play is how much it resembles a quarterback catch on a trick play, with Utah’s recently-signed point guard Bryce Cotton dumping the ball off to his running back (Rodney Hood) and sprinting towards the end zone around the outside of the line. ...
Yankees Still Pretending Alex Rodriguez's Milestone Isn't A Milestone
The Yankees’ communications staff, like every team’s, hands out a packet in the press box that features various upcoming records and milestones soon to be reached by players. Here’s tonight’s:...
Dipshit Mets Fan Throws Beer At Grady Sizemore
Here’s a dipshit Mets fan spending $12 in a futile attempt to disrupt Phillies right fielder Grady Sizemore from fielding a ball in the fourth inning at Citi Field today. Stop wasting beer, dipshit!...
Travis d'Arnaud Needs To Stop Hitting Balls At Andrelton Simmons
Braves shortstop Andrelton Simmons made a ridiculous throw to get Mets catcher Travis d’Arnaud out at first in Friday’s game, which is cool, because Simmons churns out gorgeous defensive highlights like it’s nothing, but what’s even cooler is that Simmons made almost the same exact throw on d’Arnau...
Barry Bonds Says It's Insane That Anyone Isn't Rooting For A-Rod
Barry Bonds’s comments in this great USA Today article on how he’s rooting for Alex Rodriguez could easily be read as a bit of projection. When Bonds asks how MLB and baseball fans could possibly ever root against one of its greatest players achieving something great, it’s a question I’m sure he’s a...
David Ortiz Greets Jacoby Ellsbury: "Hey, Rich Bitch"
David Ortiz took a second to mess with a couple of his former teammates, as the Yankees clobbered the Red Sox last night. Big Papi wiggled his fingers at Stephen Drew and called out to Jacoby Ellsbury with a “Hey, rich bitch!”—likely a reference to the 7-year, $153 million contract that lured Ellsb...

Manchester Derby Is Already 1-1 And Manic
The Manchester Derby lit up early for the visiting side as Sergio Agüero deposited a dish from David Silva past David de Gea to give City a 1-0 lead. The entire play set up is nice-looking soccer (Milner’s pretty awesome here), but you have to ask what Manchester United’s defenders were doing here...
You Must See The Worst Quarter In NBA History
The time has come for you to bear witness: tonight the Knicks and Magic combined for 15 total points in the second quarter of their “battle” in Orlando. So that this may never be forgotten, we provide you here the entire 12 minutes, set to the proper accompaniment. ...
