Wanna Watch A Guy Lose $1 Million on a Bad Poker Beat? Here Ya Go…(Video)
Poker’s a roller coaster for the average player. Professionals take a much more measured approach to it, but that still doesn’t prevent fortune from swinging wildly in one direction or the other. Just ask Connor Drinan, who sat at the World Series of Poker event called “Big One for One Drop” (What the hell does […]

Connor Barwin Commissioned Some Very Regal Paintings of His Eagles Teammates for Their Locker Room (Pics)
He might not look like the artsy type, but Connor Barwin knows how his tastes run. And they apparently run to ironic portraits of his teammates dressed like noblemen from the 18th and 19th century. Truly classy. Barwin commissioned (like a Medici!) a few works of art to be put up in the locker room, […]

Vin Scully Gets Standing Ovation When He Announces He’s Returning As Dodgers Announcer for 66th Season (Video)
Play-by-play announcers may not hold the clout they once did, but that doesn’t make the old guard any less iconic or revered, and no one exemplifies that better than Dodgers announcer Vin Scully. In a multilingual announcement made during last night’s Dodger game vs. Atlanta, the crowd learned that the great Vin Scully will be […]

Patrick Peterson vs. Richard Sherman Twitter Beef Continues to Entertain Us (Tweets)

Insanity at Real Madrid-Roma Friendly in Dallas, as Swarms of Idiot Fans Invade the Pitch (Videos)
The occasional interruption of a sporting event by one single moron is amusing. A bunch of people doing it all the time is stupid. And the problem is that, by admitting the former, you’re kind of encouraging the latter. I guess you could say it’s one of them catch-22s. In any case, it happened again […]

20 Cheerleaders Who Dated Athletes
It should come as a surprise to no one that cheerleaders date and sometimes marry athletes. Cheerleaders are hot, athletes are hot, and they’re around each other all the time. It’s actually surprising that there aren’t more cheerleader-athlete hookups. When I decided to do this list, I assumed I’d find more such relationships than I could handle. […]

Watch LeBron James Take Off All His Clothes for a Bunch of Taiwanese People (Video)
Well this is really weird. It seems Cleveland Cavaliers forward LeBron James is in Asia doing one of the NBA’s annual summer publicity tours right now, and he recently made a stop in Taiwan to attend a basketball camp…in an arena jam packed with 10,000 screaming people. And at that basketball camp, LeBron removed articles […]

Here Is How Drew Brees Does Skeet Shooting (Video)
Most people do skeet shooting with shotguns and clay disks, because, technically, that’s exactly what skeet shooting is. That’s not how gunslinging All-Pro, record-setting, Super Bowl-MVP quarterbacks do skeet shooting, though. Or, to be more specific, that’s not how Drew Brees does it. Drew Brees throws footballs as frisbees, which is not nearly as loud, […]

NBA MVP Kevin Durant Has Comically Large Feet (Pic)
Kevin Durant is a lanky 6’10″, so obviously he’s got long legs and big feet. However, sometimes is takes a great photograph taken at just the right angle with just the right fish-eye lens to make you realize just how freakishly long they are. Yesterday was day one of USA Basketball’s FIBA World Cup (yes, […]

Pairs Figure Skaters Throw Out Ceremonial First Pitch Like Only Pairs Figure Skaters Can (Video)
As soon as I heard that a U.S. Olympic figure skating pair threw out a first pitch at a Major League Baseball game, I thought to myself it had to be in Tampa Bay. There have been a few wacky first pitches at other ballparks this year—for example San Diego and Detroit—but when it comes to […]

Teenage Girl Overcome with Emotion After Getting Selfie with Steven Gerrard (Video)
Liverpool star Steven Gerard probably never expected he’d meet his biggest fan in New Jersey of all places. And he also probably never expected that his biggest fan would be a 16-year-old girl. But hey, life is full of surprises. The former England captain is currently travelling the United States with Liverpool FC on their preseason tour. […]

Minor League Killing Machine Takes Out Batter, Catcher, and Ump in One Pitch (Video)
Curtis Partch must be a finely-tuned killing machine, created in a military laboratory, and just biding time pitching in the minor leagues until he’s needed in a war or black op. That’s the only explanation as to how this seemingly innocuous ginger-haired, bemulleted fella could take out three parties with one pitch. His mind-computer must have […]

Dude Perfect Presents “Desert Drifting Baseball” (Video)
In some ways, the guys of Dude Perfect have come a long, long way since they first hit the YouTube scene with “World’s Longest Basketball Shot.” These days, for example, instead of filming silly sports stunts in their backyard (and the Texas A&M campus) with an iPhone, they’re out on location using crane cameras to […]

LFL Quarterback Slams a Beer in the End Zone after Scoring TD
For those of you who were having a difficult time taking the LFL (Lingerie Football League? Legends Football Leauge? Whatever) seriously…this probably won’t help. After Chicago Bliss QB Heather Furr (REALLY?) scored a rushing touchdown, she celebrated the way any great athlete would: By slamming a beer in the end zone. How rebellious! Anything must […]

Texans Rookie Jadeveon Clowney Spares RB Dennis Johnson His Wrath in Camp Drill (Tweet and Video)
Jadeveon Clowney came into the draft a highly-touted prospect, with many thinking he was the lock for the #1 pick. However, as analyses came in, and pundits had to pick SOMETHING to be critical of, they claimed that Clowney lacked the bulk and strength that many teams would want in a DE. This video of […]
