This story definitely goes in the “last thing I would ever expect” category.  Rappers feud with each other frequently, and even occasionally get in scuffles or full out wars.  To have a rapper get into it with an old, white basketball announcer is extremely odd.  As odd as the Devils shootout goal the other night?

A couple months back, a video circulated around the internet of what was arguably the longest basketball shot ever recorded on film.  It also brought into question how reliable these viral internet videos are and what kind of people spend so much time making them.  While youtube does have its upside, like all the great [...]

The shootout is what sets hockey and soccer apart from all other sports.  It is the peak of sports drama, for the entire game to come down to one shot, man vs. man, with all other variables eliminated when the score is tied.
In this video we have a hockey shootout during the Predators-Devils game.  While [...]

There is nothing quite like a free giveaway to bring out the best in fans, right?  Or the worst in them apparently as evidenced from this Anaheim Ducks game.  Hockey fans especially are known for their loyalty and aggressiveness, as opposed to baseball fans, who are just known for their weird displays of loyalty.
As Scott [...]

It is definitely not professional sports refs’ year.  Tim Donaghy’s gambling on games was the beginning (and by far the worst) case of things going wrong for referees, but his incident was definitely not the only one.  Just today an uproar over the no-call on Henry’s shady handball spread through the sports media.  That wasn’t [...]

Reebok has a new product: Special women’s shoes that supposedly make a woman’s butt tighter and stronger than normal shoes.  Whether the shoes actually work or not is not the problem here, though if they do that’s great.  The point is the subject of the commercial.  The original ones shown recently involved butts talking to [...]

The art of performing a successful trick play can come down to deception as much as any specific execution on the field.  In this case, both were crucial to the success of the play.  And what a play it was.
Reminiscent of the behind the back basket scored by a minor league basketball player recently, this [...]

Thierry Henry is one of the greatest and most recognized names in international soccer.  His success on the pitch has been off the charts in both club and international play.  On top of that, his face has become well-known worldwide from his many sponsors and advertisers, one of which are the famous Gillette commercials where [...]

When you think of highlights or trick plays in basketball, generally what comes to mind is some sort of slam dunk, half-court shot, or clever pass.  Trick shots like the one in this video are a dime a dozen in an empty gym.  This took place in a full gym, with 9 other guys on [...]

A beautiful woman in a painted on sports jersey is the culmination of most men’s fantasies (mine also includes deep-dish pizza, but that is neither here nor there).  Thank god for supermen like Tim Tebow, who bring out the the best in hot girls.  Something about gorgeous girls in painted on jerseys is hypnotic, wouldn’t [...]
