Apparel company’s funny ad features pros asking PGA Tour to allow shorts (vid)
The PGA, as it is wont to do, has several silly rules, regulations and restrictions that the organization believes maintains the integrity of the game.

Ashworth, [...]The post Apparel company’s funny ad...

Toronto church’s sign attempts to talk Maple Leafs fans off the ledge (photo)
The Toronto Maple Leafs were eliminated from the playoffs on Monday night, losing its quarterfinals series to the Boston Bruins in Game 7.

LFL player makes tackle, celebrates by rubbing her butt on opponent’s head (vid)
Sure, the Lingerie Football League announced on Jan. 10, 2013 that the league had changed its name to the much more sanitized and politically correct Legends Football League, but so long as the football played in the LFL involves scantily attired women who celebrate a nice tackle by rubbing her ass on her opponent’s head?

GAH! Memphis Grizzlies fan’s face paint job is straight-up nightmare fuel (photo)

Bryce Harper ignores warning track warning, runs full speed into wall (video/GIF)
The warning track that runs the length of outfields in major league ballparks — and every other baseball field, for that matter — is called a warning track because it is supposed to warn outfielders that they are getting perilously close to the outfield wall in case the player is otherwise occupied with tracking the [...]The post Bryce Harper ignores warning track warning, runs...
What in the holy hell was Dwyane Wade wearing before Game 4? (pics/video)
Dwyane Wade, as evidenced by his brash choices in clothing — typified by this floral-printed nightmare he sported last week — must fancy himself something of a fashion maven, an individual who sets the trends and refuses to follow them. On Monday night, TNT’s cameras caught the Miami Heat superstar arriving at United Center in [...]The post What in the holy hell was Dwyane...

Oh dear: Bryce Harper tweets about weather while driving 40 mph (photo)
Washington Nationals phenom Bryce Harper may be young but that doesn’t mean he has the right to conduct himself in irresponsible, potentially dangerous, ways.

During Wednesday’s match-up between the Anaheim Ducks and Detroit Red Wings in Game 5 of the teams’ Western Conference quarterfinals series, Ducks winger Corey Perry committed two separate egregious affronts to the crotchal region of Red Wings goaltender Jimmy Howard within a few-second time span.

Whatever this Astros fan is doing with a hot dog in his pants, it ain’t right (video)
Thanks to Deadspin, here’s a video of a very immature adult male Houston Astros fan taking advantage of the premium placement of the seats behind home plate by inserting a hot dog (or some other phallic-looking object) through the fly of his pants and waving it as if it were his manhood.

R.A. Dickey introduces new phrase to baseball lexicon: ‘Hard as crud’
The Toronto Blue Jays are struggling. With lofty goals for the season, the Blue Jays have underwhelmed thus far. The team is scuttling along (to put it nicely), sitting at a 13-23 record, bad enough to already be 8.5 games back of the East-leading New York Yankees. During Thursday’s 5-4 loss to the Tampa Bay [...]The post R.A. Dickey introduces new phrase to baseball lexicon: ‘Hard...
