Meet Kyle Lowry. He's Very Good (And Probably Not A Giant Asshole).
NBA fans have known for a while that Kyle Lowry is pretty damn good. But that respect was an abstract one: Lowry's value was an acknowledged fact, if not one with specific dimensions. He's good, but why? He plays in a far away land, is never on national TV and has made more headlines for the trade ...
I Can't Stop Looking At This Washington Wizards Hustle Chart
The Washington Wizards are relatively dope this year, and are currently resting their legs after laying that five-game smackage on the Sad Chicago Bulls.

What Do The Sharks Do Now? If They're Smart, Nothing.
The San Jose Sharks, already widely considered the chokingest team in hockey history, bolstered their reputation on Wednesday night.

Bruins Unimpressed By Carey Price's 48-Save Night
Normally, if you allow Boston to score three goals, you're not going to win. They feature the single best defensive forward, blueliner, and netminder in the league, with everyone else taking their cues from a style designed to strangle and frustrate. That style worked just as it was supposed to last...
Tuukka Mad
Bruins goaltender Tuukka Rask was pissed at himself for allowing the Canadiens' second goal and couldn't control his anger as he tried to drink. Rask has a habit of reacting poorly to giving up goals. ...
Why Rich Lacrosse Parents Are Making Their Kids Repeat A Grade
In the lax-crazy scholastic sports scene of the high-end Washington D.C. market, a game between Landon School and Georgetown Prep is essentially 'Skins vs. Cowboys, except with more people named Topper. They're two of the fancy-pantsiest all-boys secondary schools in the area, and their athletic riv...
The Irrepressible Wild Take An All-Time Great Game 7
The Minnesota Wild's frenetic overtime victory was, in some ways, the antithesis of what's supposed to make a Game 7 so remarkable. You think of a Game 7 and you think of the tension. The buttclenching fear that one turnover, one save, one play is going to decide the series. And that suffocating pr...
The San Jose Sharks Join A Depressing Club By Blowing A 3-0 Series Lead

Gronk Tailgates K-State Spring Game, Is Amused By Beer Bong In Pants

New Footage Shows The Based God's Curse On Kevin Durant Is Real
I don't know what kind of hidden frequencies or imperceptible light waves this Vine can pick up on, but we now have the best evidence yet for why Kevin "The Servant" Durant's shot wasn't hitting like it usually does last night....
The Rangers' Slow-Motion Collapse Is Becoming An Annual Event
The standing ovation the Flyers received at the end of last night's first period was not entirely deserved. Through 20 minutes they'd been pretty well pushed around, getting outpossessed at even strength to the tune of 18 shot attempts to just 11 (37.9 percent). That, in hockey, doesn't sound like m...
Joey Crawford Is Still A Shit
Well, this was inevitable. We all knew that, at some point during these playoffs, Joey Goddamn Crawford was going to find away to thrust himself into the spotlight and whip up some controversy, because Joey Crawford is the worst....
Mexican Beers, Ranked
Cinco de Mayo used to be a nice little half-holiday on which Americans drank Corona and tequila after work in a vague but earnest tribute to Mexico. What exactly did Cinco de Mayo signify? Maybe it commemorated the beginning of a just reign or the end of a cruel one; perhaps it had something to do w...
