The New York Jets tire fire of a season will end up with Mark Sanchez under center after being benched because Greg McElroy got the living crap beat out of him by the Chargers in Week 16. McElroy was sacked 11 times in his first career start, and may have gotten a concussion. He hasn't been diagnosed... Read More
The BCS title game is just under two weeks away, with Alabama and Notre Dame facing off on January 7th in Miami. Probably bored with the long wait, some Notre Dame fans, or maybe just some tee-shirt guys who were looking to make a few bucks, have come up with the shirt you see above. Golden Domers vs....

Dwyane Wade is supposed to be one of the NBA's stand-up guys. He doesn't seem to get in trouble, he's handled some pretty awful off the court stuff with his ex and their kids pretty well, considering how batshit some of it was. None of that mattered when the Miami Heat were taking on the Charlotte Bobcats. Wade... Read More
New York Giants rookie running back David Wilson's quest for the Pro Football Hall of Fame took a hit in week 16. After a breakout performance in week 14, it looked like Wilson might not have been over confident in himself. It was back in October when Wilson, who was barely getting playing time, said...

The Los Angeles Clippers have the best record in the NBA. Let that sink in for a minute, I'll wait. Okay, let's get back to this move that Jamal Crawford pulled off last night in the Clips' 14th straight victory. That's not a typo, by the way. Crawford defied all logic during a fast break by stopping... Read More
Kevin Durant might not be a budding movie star just yet, but his commercials are getting better and better. His latest from Sprint, hawking their mobile NBA coverage is pretty great. In this one, KD takes over the body of some suburban dad who has been watching too much basketball on his phone. While... Read More
This is it. The final week of the regular season with a whole bunch of meaningless games. There are also a bunch of games that mean a lot to a bunch of different teams. It's the week where fans of a team become fans of their rivals if it means a win by a team they hate gets them in the playoffs. The... Read More
Guys jumping off trampolines to throw down monster dunks during halftime of NBA games is nothing new. Groups of guys doing synchronized routines isn't that new either, but it's still pretty entertaining. Dudes are just flying around and there's always an element of danger that makes it that much more... Read More
I'm not sure if the Texans got exposed on Sunday or the Vikings proved they were legit. Probably some of both. Either way, Minnesota went down to Houston and beat up on the AFC's supposed best team, and threw the conference playoff seedings into a tizzy. Houston could lose home field with a loss next...

R.A. Dickey spent all of last season confusing hitters with his knuckleball. Based on this gif, he also spent a lot of time confusing the hell out of his catcher. It can't be easy to be back there with Dickey (or any knuckleballer) on the mound. The ball does weird, fluttery things, and there really... Read More
Breaking backboards is so last year. Jordan Bell of Long Beach Poly High in California apparently didn't feel like doing something that so many have done before him, so when he pulled off this ridiculous windmill dunk, he threw it down with so much power that he broke the freaking rim. Bell is committed... Read More
With only two regular season games left, not a single team has clinched home field throughout the playoffs yet. That could change this weekend, of course. The NFC East title is the big race to watch, with the Giants, Cowboys and Redskins all 8-6. Seattle and San Francisco play a huge NFC West game on... Read More
The days of burly prototype NBA enforcers like Charles Oakley and Xavier McDaniel ended somewhere around the turn of the century when the NBA was desperate to find its post-Michael Jordan era footing. Rather than throwing elbows and showcasing mild, controlled violence to prove who was 'The Man,' keeping... Read More
In golf, a slice is something that happens to pretty much everyone, from the top players on the PGA tour to nearly every weekend hacker who tries to get a round in. You're swinging at a tiny ball with an oddly shaped club and no matter how many times you hit it straight, eventually you're going to mishit... Read More
Someone at the NBA's marketing department thought to themselves, 'hey, what if we got James Harden, Jason Kidd, Blake Griffin and Chris Paul to sing a version of Jingle Bells that's all about playing basketball on Christmas Day?' Apparently they then shared that idea and someone higher up thought, 'that's... Read More
