Paralyzed Teen Will Kick First Ball at 2014 World Cup Thanks to Technology (Video)
There’s a teenaged soccer fan out there somewhere who’s going to kick the ceremonial first ball at the 2014 FIFA World Cup next month, and he probably doesn’t even think such a thing is possible. That’s because he’s paralyzed, but thanks to technology being developed by the Walk Again Project, he’ll be able to. The […]

Rangers Goon Derek Dorsett Snows Kid, Headbutts Mike Weaver, Is All-Around Douche (GIFs)
It would be easy to look at the score of Game 5 between the Rangers and Canadiens last night and assume the former’s Derek Dorsett was acting like a goon toward the end because the Canadiens were up 7-4. After all, most lopsided playoff games end with goonery, with the losing squad trying to set […]

Cowboys Linebacker Sean Lee Out for the Year After Tearing ACL on Day One of OTAs (Video)
It’s bad enough that NFL teams lose players during training camp and preseason games. But now they’re losing them during “organized team activities” too? This is getting ridiculous. The latest high-profile but totally unnecessary injury occurred yesterday, on day one of the Cowboys’ offseason practices. Middle linebacker Sean Lee fell awkwardly while being blocked by […]

Dean Potter Takes Dog BASE Jumping (Video)
Dean Potter is famous for his stunts and ascents, including BASE jumps. But his latest stunt involves him taking a partner along for his antics, and not a human one. It’s his dog, who’s being billed as the “World’s First Wingsuit BASE Jumping Dog” by a new video from Potter. The video is called “When Dogs Fly,” with […]

50 Cent Makes Terrible First Pitch at Mets-Pirates Game (Video)
Like many other rappers, a big part of 50 Cent‘s recording persona is that he’s good at everything—not just rapping, but fighting, shooting, screwing, etc. But that group of behaviors apparently doesn’t include throwing a baseball, which (truth be told) actually makes me like 50 Cent a lot more. It happened at Citi Field in […]

Snoop Dogg Sending Good Vibes To The USMNT Via Instagram (Video)
You know how sometimes you feel you’d be able to achieve a little more success in life if you just had Snoop Dogg (real name: Snoop Doggy Dogg Doggy Dogg Doggy Doggggggg) around to send you words of encouragement? Well, luckily for the USMNT, they don’t have to worry about that, because when you’ve got a big enough profile, […]

This Mic’d Up Exchange Between P.K. Subban and Patrice Bergeron is Hilarious (Video)
While they might not take each other out for beers after decking one another, the interaction between two bickering hockey players is pretty damn funny, as this audio/video clip demonstrates. Patrice Bergeron was wearing a microphone for the TV show Behind the B during Game 6 of the Boston Bruins’ second-round playoff series against the […]

Bill Simmons Finds Young Chris ‘Birdman’ Andersen Doppelganger in Miami Crowd During Game 4 (Photo)
It’s understandable why young, dumb fans would gravitate towards Chris Andersen. It’s the same reason I liked Dennis Rodman when I was a young, dumb fan. He’s a colorful, semi-rebellious player who is very comfortable in the background of a more star-studded team. However, it seems as though Chris Andersen is not the jackass that […]

Novak Djokovic Has Some Fun with a Ball Boy During Rain Delay at French Open (Video)
I realize that headline sounds a little disturbing, but I assure you there is no funny business in the video you are about to see. It’s nothing but wholesome fun suitable for the whole family. You see, yesterday’s opening round match at Roland Garros between #2 Novak Djokovic and Portugal’s Joao Sousa was briefly delayed […]

Outgoing Bucks Owner Herb Kohl Gives Every Arena Employee $500 as a Thank-You
No one will ever accuse the Milwaukee Bucks of being the best-run franchise in the NBA, but that doesn’t mean that their owner, former U.S. Senator Herb Kohl, isn’t a decent dude. After selling the team for $550 million, he decided to thank the people that made the franchise so valuable. Not the execs, or […]

Colombian Soccer Fans Celebrate A Championship They Didn’t Win Thanks To Social Media
After Atlético Nacional knocked off Junior F.C. in Colombia, it was pretty clear, as it would be in most (all?) championship games, that Nacional was the champion. However, that’s before you factor in the sublime power of denial and the uncanny rumor-creation abilities of social media. So, following the defeat, word began to spread on […]

Nats Fan Wipes Hand in Armpit, Smells It, then Shoves It in Woman’s Face (Video)
Until today, the most disgusting thing I’d ever seen at a Major League Baseball game was a toss-up between the vendor who put the tray of snow cones on the floor of a public bathroom while relieving himself and the dude who shaved “Let’s Go Bucs” into his chest hair. Now we have a new, […]

Vince Wilforks Dancing While Smoking Ribs Is Amazing (Videos)
While Johnny Football was off in Las Vegas partying with Rob Gronkowski this Memorial Day weekend, dancing shirtless to DJ Diplo and snapping selfies with babes, Gronk’s teammate Vince Wilfork was keeping things low key. The 350-pound All-Pro defensive tackle is a family man, so he can’t fly off to Vegas for a weekend of […]

15 Greatest Gregg Popovich Moments
The San Antonio Spurs are currently one of the great dynasties in pro sports. The team has appeared in the Western Conference Finals in each of the last three seasons, and nine of the last 16 dating back to 1999. In that span, they’ve made the NBA Finals five times, winning four Championships. And the one […]

Female White Sox Fan Saves Baby From Flying Bat (GIF)
I should probably clarify that headline. I’m talking about a baseball bat, although the idea of a baby being saved from a giant nocturnal rat-bird at a White Sox game is pretty fun to think about. What really happened is nice too, though. It happened during the Memorial Day game between the White Sox and […]
