After a terrible performance during Game 3 of the NBA Finals, LeBron James promised he would be better in Game 4, and he was. James had one of his worst performances of the 2013 post-season during Tuesday’s Game 3 loss, as he scored just 15 points, which marked his lowest scoring output of the playoffs [...]
The boy in the above image is Nick LeGrande. On Wednesday, Nick celebrated his 14th birthday, and as a gift, the Oakland A’s invited him to throw out the first pitch during their game against the New York Yankees at the Coliseum. It was quite the treat from the Athletics organization, but making this once-in-a-lifetime [...]
The Boston Bruins are currently representing the Eastern Conference in the Stanley Cup Finals, but it wasn’t long ago that the found themselves down by three in the third period of a do-or-die Game 7 during their first-round playoff series against the Toronto Maple Leafs. Bruins fans may have forgotten all about that after easily [...]
So apparently yesterday was National Jerky Day. At least, that’s according to the folks over at Jack Link’s Jerky. And they decided to celebrate the occasion the only way they knew how: by dropping a ton of beef jerky out of a helicopter hovering over a little league baseball game in Nebraska. Why a little [...]
Normally when a pro ballplayer gets the big hit that wins the game for his team, he gets either a bucket of gatorade dumped on his head or a shaving cream pie stuffed in his face. However, the Kansas City Royals do things a little differently. Apparently they’ve decided to give their victory tradition more [...]
If you’re like me, then you were enamored (which is a nice way of saying obsessed) with the incredible women who graced the covers of the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue when you were young. But did you ever wonder what became of the gorgeous sex symbols of your youth? Well, I did. So I looked them up. Turns [...]
There are lots of ways for the postgame interview to go awry, but they usually just involve f-bombs, other ill-advised comments, or people losing their cool. MMA fighter Cliff Thompson, however, took post-game interview fails to a whole other level last Saturday after his three-round, split-decision victory over Doug Usher at Wild Bill’s Fight Night [...]
The Toronto Blue Jays’ Munenori Kawasaki is the most entertaining player in Major League Baseball. This has absolutely nothing to do with his abilities to hit or catch or throw the ball, and everything to do with his comedic timing and feigned ignorance of the English language. Any time he gets in front of a [...]
Thrilling breakaways, clutch saves, great goals, 117 total shots, 120 hits, and three overtime periods totaling one hour, 52 minutes, and eight seconds of hockey? Sports fans (and NBC executives) could not have asked for any more from the Blackhawks and Bruins in Game 1 of the 2013 Stanley Cup Finals. It was a game [...]
The Houston Astros entered last night sitting in last place in the American League with an abysmal 22-44 record. It, therefore, goes without saying that wins have been tough for the club to come by since they made their move from the NL to the AL, but they would find a way to add another [...]
When any professional sports team makes a deep playoff run, you can always expect the bangwagon fans to be following not far behind. The Miami Heat are no exception to this rule, and after making their third consecutive NBA Finals appearance, it may be fair to say that they have actually accumulated more bandwagon fans [...]
Back in April we told you what the cover of Madden NFL 25 would look like, but we all know better than to judge a book—err, video game–by its cover. The real question is, what will the actual gameplay look like? Well, in case you didn’t realize it, the biggest gaming convention in the world—the [...]
Don’t bite the hand that feeds you, they say. But in the case of Javier Mascherano, the maxim should be amended to something like, don’t kick the guy who’s driving the vehicle carting you off the field. On Tuesday night, Argentina was playing Ecuador in a World Cup 2014 qualifier when, late in the 1-1 [...]
Yes, there is such a thing as the Ball Hockey World Championships, and yes, there are definitely fights—especially when the Canadians are losing. During the men’s semifinals of the event last Saturday in St. John’s, Newfoundland, the Canadians found themselves down 4-1 to the Czechs in the final moments of the game and had their [...]
Being from different divisions in the American League, the Baltimore Orioles and Anaheim Angels only play two series against each other every year—one in Anaheim, and one in Baltimore. So what are the chances that Orioles shortstop J.J. Hardy would get robbed of a home run by a great catch by the center fielder for [...]
Major League baseball is going to do a lot of suspending and finger-wagging as a result of the melee that broke out between the Dodgers and Diamondbacks in L.A. last night. But don’t let that fool you—everything that went down is good for the game. Anytime two teams comes to loathe each other, that’s quality [...]
Heading into last night’s MLB action, Seattle Mariners pitcher Aaron Harang had only pitched past the sixth inning once in nine starts this season. That one instance would turn out to be a complete-game shutout performance (on May 27), and he replicated that performance on Tuesday against the Houston Astros. Harang began the evening with [...]
Unlike ESPN, Bill Belichick would rather not talk about Tim Tebow. That was quite evident during his press conference earlier today, as Belichick dipped, ducked and dived around every Tim Tebow question that reporters could throw at him over the course of nine minutes. Belichick must have been prepared for the heavy barrage of Tebow [...]
How far would you go to get your hands on a home run ball at a Major League Baseball game? Would you waste a full bucket of popcorn or dive backwards over a row of seats to catch one? Or, how about this: would you steamroll your child if he got in between you and [...]
You’ve probably never seen somebody get a red card for animal cruelty before. Unfortunately, there is a first time for everything. During a recent fourth-tier match between Argentinian clubs San Juan and Belle Vista, a stray dog ran out onto the field, interrupting the match. Normally when that kind of thing happens, hilarity ensues. However, [...]
