Actor Andrew Garfield is busy shooting scenes for The Amazing Spider-Man 2—which is expected to be released in theaters sometime in 2014—all over New York City.

Despite Elimination, Classy Warriors Players Took Time to Thank Their Fans Last Night (Video)
The Golden State Warriors are one of the saddest franchises in the NBA. Coming into the 2012-13 season, they had made just two playoff appearances over the last 20 years. One was in 1994, when they got swept by the Suns in the first round. The other was in 2007, when they managed to upset [...]

Craig Sager Videobombs Will Smith During Heat-Bulls Game (Video)
According to “Know Your Meme,” photobombing is described as, “a practical joke that involves trespassing and posing distraction in the background during a shoot, otherwise known as ruining someone else’s picture,” and it originated back in 2008.

Hey, remember planking? How about Tebowing? Or maybe Te’oing? Well, if we’re lucky, the big internet meme of 2013 will be posterizing. Now, for the uninitiated, “posterize” is a basketball term which basically means “to dunk on someone in a memorable fashion.” The idea is that, when a guy does this it looks like one [...]

Dwyane Wade Wore a Ladies Pantsuit to the United Center Last Night (Video)
We’re used to seeing the superstars on the Miami Heat in fancy suits by Versace and Gucci. Last night in Chicago, however, we saw one of them in a fancy suit by Ann Taylor. The culprit? That would be Dwyane Wade. Now, in fairness, Wade has to try pretty hard to keep up with teammates [...]

76ers Fans Are Going to LOVE This Video of Andrew Bynum Flamenco Dancing in Spain (Video)
First it was bowling. Now it’s flamenco dancing. Apparently, either Andrew Bynum just doesn’t know how not to be a giant douche, or the guy just doesn’t care. You know the story, right?
