In case you needed any more proof that soccer is life and death in Brazil, just consider this.

Dan Le Batard Destroys the Pacers in Hilarious 10-Minute Rant (Video)
Like most sports fans, seeing the Miami Heat win makes me want to punch kittens. That being said, I don’t begrudge the 20 or 30 real Heat fans out there for celebrating. After all, contrary to popular belief, some of those real Heat fans (i.e., the ones who date back to the pre-LeBron days) aren’t […]

New York Mets Break Cheesesteak Record in Citizens Bank Visitors Clubhouse
The New York Mets strode into Citizen’s Bank Park in Philadelphia and took home the team cheesesteak eating record. It happened during a rainout at the end of April but I guess it takes some time for the ink to dry on important matters like cheesesteak records. The entire Mets bullpen consumed a total of 103 […]

Comedian Simon Brodkin Stopped by Police From Boarding England Soccer Squad’s Plane
Simon Brodkin isn’t a huge name in the United States but he’s well known in the United Kingdom, and a recent stunt involving the English soccer team will probably raise his profile all over. He was in character as “Jason Bent,” a made-up Premier League footballer he sometimes portrays on TV, when he almost got […]

Kings’ Drew Doughty Falls Over the Boards and Onto the Ice While Celebrating OT Winner (Video)
Going from the highest of highs to the lowest of lows is something that every professional athlete must endure at some point in their career. Los Angeles Kings star defenceman Drew Doughty is no exception, as he experienced just that during Game 7 against the Blackhawks last night—with the highest of highs coming when teammate Alec […]

Serena Williams Crashes Wedding in Leopard Swimsuit (Photos)
What’s the best way to get over a second round upset loss at the French Open? I’ll give you a hint: It’s quite similar to the best way to get over a first round loss at the French Open and a recent break-up with your former fiance. Still having trouble figuring out the answer? Let […]

Japanese Soccer Team Tries To Boost Their ‘Attendance’ with Half-Assed Cardboard Cutouts (Photo)
Anyone who subscribed to the common wisdom that the Japanese are a meticulous, hard-working bunch had best avert their eyes. The J-League Division One team Omiya Ardija presumably decided that their attendance could use a little boost, so they crammed a bunch of cardboard cutouts into one section, then had them photographed. It’s unclear whether this […]

Raising the Bar Set by Yu Darvish, Kazuhito Tadano Throws a Terrific Eephus Pitch (Video)
First things first: For those unfamiliar, an eephus pitch is a crappy little slow number that a pitcher intentionally throws to catch a hitter off-guard. It rarely works, mostly because pro pitchers just aren’t used to throwing that slowly, but it’s always fun to watch. Last week, Yu Darvish threw a pitch that was a […]

The Game Delivers Assist on Kwame Alexander’s Monster Windmill Alley-Oop Dunk (Video)
Without pumping too much hyperbole into this thing (dunks in non-NBA environments already get way too much credit), this might be one of the best dunks you’ll see outside of an NBA game all year. Here, in a Drew League game (don’t know what that is), some dude named The Game (no idea who that is, […]

Let’s All Watch This Grown Man Destroy a 10-Year-Old Kid in One-on-One Hoops (Video)
I don’t know about you, but when I’m feeling down about myself, I like to go down to the local YMCA, find a 10-year-old who thinks he’s God’s gift to basketball, challenge him to a game of one-on-one, and then totally destroy him. I’m not that great at basketball, mind you. But I am 6’2″, and […]

Donald Sterling Attends Service at Black Church, So I Guess He’s Not a Racist AFTER All (Pic)
As you’ve probably heard, (soon-to-be former) Los Angeles Clippers owner Donald Sterling is a racist. He doesn’t think he’s a racist, mind you, or at least that’s what he says. It may very well be that, deep down, he knows he is a racist but doesn’t want to be a racist. And certainly, at the very least, it’s […]

Prince and His Scepter Watching Rafael Nadal at the French Open (Photos)
There was a prince in attendance to watch Rafael Nadal‘s straight sets victory over Dusan Lajovic during their fourth-round match at the French Open on Monday. And No, we are not talking about the Prince of Monaco, the Prince of Spain, or even the Prince of Wales. Rather, the prince we speak of in this instance […]

Marlon Byrd Somehow Managed to Break His Bat on a Swing-and-Miss (Video)
Bats break all the time during Major League Baseball games, but not like this. It happened during yesterday afternoon’s NL East showdown between the New York Mets and the Philadelphia Phillies, as the Phils’ Marlon Byrd completely whiffed on a 1-0 pitch from Jonathon Niese, but was still somehow able to send three-quarters of his […]
