Dustin Brown Sums Up Joy Of Winning Stanley Cup With Big Ol' F-Bomb On Live TV
Pierre McGuire had just asked Los Angeles Kings captain Dustin Brown whether he could have envisioned this moment several months back.

We told you earlier about Rob Gronkowski's appearance Saturday night at a Children's Hospital charity event in Boston, after which he danced shirtless and may or may not have purposely dumped a drink on a woman.

L.A. Kings PR Staff Plans To Withhold Stats From The Devils, Accidentally Tells Every Reporter About It
It's the responsibility of the home team's PR staff to compile statistics after each period, then rush print-outs down to both teams' locker rooms. It's not vital information, but it's nice for a coach to be able to quantify things like ice time and shots taken. During Saturday's game 5 in Newark, D...
The Dumbest Story Written About Derek Jeter (Post-3,000th-Hit Edition)
Really, Brian Lewis of the New York Post? This is an actual sentence that ran in a newspaper story after, say, 2004, and not something Tim McCarver said on air? OK:...

Rob Gronkowski Attends Charity Event, Removes Shirt, (Maybe) Pours Drink On Woman [UPDATED]
It began as a busy offseason of funneling beers, wearing Zubaz, and lying around with cats for Rob Gronkowski, but it's been a while since we've had a genuine sighting of yo soy fiesta. That relative quiet may or may not have had anything to do with negotiations for the lucrative contract extension ...
LeBron James Is Finally Good At Basketball
Now that LeBron has finally won a game people think is important, maybe we can talk about how good the guy has been. We've talked some in these parts about Rajon Rondo and his Fuck You brand of basketball. LeBron James, with that one three point shot late in the game and follow through pose, ushere...
Tonight No One Will Remember Hockey, Not Just Los Angeles
The Los Angeles Kings have had a pretty strange post season. They have completely dominated their opponents throughout each round of the Stanley Cup Playoffs and endeared themselves to an increasingly Twitterized public all the while California has no idea who they are. The Devils meanwhile, are ha...
Does ?uestlove Of The Roots Have Inside Information About Bounties In The NFL?
I'm not sure when this short little entry about Donovan McNabb was made, but in the little information section to the right (click to enlarge below) it is noted that the purpose of the blog is to serve as "a compendium of stories by @questlove, your favorite music nerd, in response to questions wri...
Found: One University Of Kentucky Prosthetic Leg
OK. So. We have here a prosthetic leg emblazoned with the University of Kentucky Wildcats logo. The leg was pulled in by a shrimping boat in Florida. It appears to be a right leg. Guessing from the footwear I am assuming it belonged to a male, outdoorsy type. Of course, it is possible that it's a f...
Wearing A Fish Bib And Singing An Italian Song Did Not Give Tommy Lasorda Or Lou Piniella A Heart Attack, TMZ Says
This was the scene Sunday evening at Bamonte's, an Italian restaurant in the Williamsburg section of Brooklyn that's been open since 1900. Bamonte's is a wonderfully old-school red-sauce joint—try the stuffed peppers appetizer and the eggplant rollatini—and it's not uncommon there for a couple of ol...
The A's Are Hopeless And Heartless
The Athletics are bad. They are last in the league in hits, total bases, RBIs, batting average, slugging percentage, and OBP. (Semi-silver lining: they have grounded into the fewest double plays, but only because no one's ever on base.) They're not mathematically eliminated just yet, but man, if eve...

Bob Kraft's guests at Patriots games: Rush Limbaugh, Steven Tyler, Donald Trump. Bob Kraft's guest at last night's Celtics game? This lady. Ricki Noel Lander....
Here Are All Of LeBron's Unspectacular 45 Points
Watching a supercut of LeBron James's scores in last night's parquet floorwiping of the Celtics, you're struck at how rote it seems. A cold, clinical series of possessions that resembled nothing so much as a practice drill that just happened to have five green-and-white clad obstacles on the court...
LeBron James Had A Big Game Last Night For Cleveland, According To ESPN
The folks in Northeast Ohio must be pretty stoked this morning. Forty-eight years without a pro sports championship, and just when all looked lost once again, LeBron goes out and does that, and now it's back home for Game 7. I, for one, can't wait to see how it all ends, if only to read Scott Raab's...
LeBron James Destroyed The Celtics To Force A Game 7 (And Got A Beer Dumped On Him)
Oh, this wasn't how it was supposed to be? LeBron James wasn't theoretically capable of delivering a devastatingly effective performance in Game 6 at the TD Garden? Fuck all that. James finished with 45 points, 15, rebounds, and five assists, and the Heat won by 19 points. (The last player with such...

The Mets Are Shamelessly Selling Commemorative Tickets To Johan Santana's No-Hitter For $50 Each
You see those tickets up there? They're from old Shea Stadium in 1969, the Amazin' Mets. Five bucks bought you a loge seat for the NLCS, and ten bucks bought you one for the World Series. That's a good price. The loge had a nice view. I would have enjoyed seeing the Miracle Mets' miracles from there...
The Market For Yankees Tickets Is Worse Than We Thought
Yesterday we brought you news of a spat between the Yankees and StubHub, "the official ticket reseller of Major League Baseball." The Yankees aren't drawing, and they can't even move their own unsold tickets because they're being undercut by StubHub. (As I write this, it's five hours before first pi...
There Is No Best Player In The NBA: The Problem With The Basketball Hero Industry
The most unstoppable player on the winning team in the last Heat-Celtics game wasn't any one player at all. Here's an edited play-by-play:...
