Why You Shouldn't Run Onto The Field At Fenway
Friday, May 30, 2008
This awesome video via TSB features a more than likely drunk fan running in the outfield at Fenway Park. You can guess what happens next....
BAM! The second angle is by far the best, but that kid just got....Jacked Up! I'm not quite sure how old this is but it's the first time I've seen it. If you've seen it before you have my apologies, but honestly...who wouldn't want to see that again?

Cheese Rolling: Bringing You Broken Bones And Laughter For Over 200 Years
Wednesday, May 28, 2008

The Cooper's Hill Cheese-Rolling and Wake went down on Monday and while I don't understand why people do it....I sure can laugh at their injuries! Enjoy the highlights....
As the rain poured down it became impossible for racers to stay on their feet and contestants became caked in mud as they flipped, somersaulted and tumbled their way down the hill.Umm the "conditions" were "horrific"? I think running down a 200 meter slope with 1:1 gradients is pretty horrific in its own right, but to each his own. Good times.
Christopher Anderson, 19, who won the first race, was carried away from the hill on a spinal board after hurting his back as he finished head over heels.
His friend, Shane Beard, from Brockworth, who also took part in the race, said: "The conditions were horrific, you just have to get your head down and hope for the best." (Via BBC News)

Introducing To The Celts-Cavs Fray.....Mama James
Monday, May 12, 2008
I'm not kidding you at all when I tell you that the lady getting into it during this tussle is Lebron James' mom. The crew discussed it at halftime and the woman in the white shirt is definitely Mama Bron.
What are the chances that someone fouls you hard and takes you into the crowd to your Mom!?!? Amazing....you can't make this stuff up.
Update: Here's the TNT Postgame Show explaining the whole thing....
Update: Looks like that gave Lebron all the motivation he needed.....

Marvin Williams Clotheslines Rajon Rondo, Is Ejected
Sunday, May 04, 2008
Here's the thing I didn't understand about this play. Marvin Williams has about two feet on Rondo, why not just try and block the shot? Just a thought, but if you're going to foul you mind as well make it a good one....
Good lord that was just wrong. Williams did say he tried to catch him, but I don't think I saw that. Also, this is just an idea, but you might want to take your starters out now Doc. I know it's the start of the 3rd quarter, but if they're going to be fouling people like this I'd rather it be Tony Allen than Rajon Rondo.
Let's add Kevin Garnett blasting Zaza on a pick just for the heck of it....
Pretty sure you can't turn your shoulder into someone like that Mark Jackson. Some might take that as dirty.

Track And Field Is Intense!
Tuesday, April 29, 2008
There's really no reason for this post at all, but to A) Either gross you out with blood and/or B) Relay a great story I have about running. Just check out the gnarly results this Women's DMR produced at the Penn Relays. From Track & Field News via With Leather and SbB...
That's Stanford runner Alicia Follmar who took a "spike to the head" after a fall at the start of the race. As few of you know I was a runner in College and while I've been hit by a car (twice actually) and tore an ACL in a relay race, this is pretty badass. Not that she got stabbed with a spike, but that she finished the race....3rd!!!
Now for the only story I have that can top that. While running Cross Country my Freshman year in College, I was on a leg of a race that went downhill through a small set of woods at the 5-mile mark of a 6-mile course. A runner was about 20 yards ahead when I noticed something moving really fast in the woods off to the right. Being 5-miles in, my mind couldn't process what was coming until an animal leaped across the trail colliding into the guy directly ahead of me. A deer completely plowed through the guy as he did a complete sideways flip into the forest on the left side.
Perhaps the raddest and scariest thing I've ever seen in Sports. Thank you for obliging me by reading that and go on about your day.

Minor League Hockey Hits Are Badass
Monday, April 28, 2008
This is one of those, what we call "slow news days" in the business (ha...the business of blogging), and when a clip like this comes along I just have to share it (mainly to fill the afternoon).
The person with the puck is Tri-City Americans Center Drew Hoff. The person without the puck is Spokane's Judd Blackwater. The song is "Save Yourself" "Cochise" by Audioslave. The website providing the clip is Greg Wys' Yahoo Hockey Blog. Just wait until the behind the net replay at :40. Enjoy!
Beeeeyah! That was just wicked. There's talk that the hit might have been charging, and Blackwater did leave his feet, but Hoff still had the puck. Good hit if you ask me and very entertaining on a slow afternoon.

Rob Leth from the Global Television Network in Canada is going to soon realize that standing there was not the best idea....
AWESOME! Normally people don't go all the way around on hits like that, but bravo to you Rob. Great job finishing the report out as well.

Volleyball Is Amazing And Deadly
Thursday, February 14, 2008
It's a lazy Thursday afternoon so what better way to cure the doldrums than a video of Volleyball chicks and dudes getting blasted in the face?
The music is so beautiful and so tragic at the same time. Perfect for people getting nailed in the grill.

Hockey Goalies Know How To Slide Tackle
Wednesday, December 12, 2007
This clip is from the Friday night Minnesota Wild-Detroit Red Wings game, and it's just about the sweetest hit from a goalie I've ever seen....
I don't see how this was a penalty since he got the puck first, but I'm not really versed in Hockey Rules. Hell with a 5-0 lead I'd be bored like Hasek as well.

Ed Reed Meet The Best Blocking Wide Receiver In NFL History
Monday, November 05, 2007
Ed Reed is normally the one laying the hits, but Hines Ward introduces the Ravens' Safety straight to the turf with this head on hit (wait for the replay)......
He just hid behind the other defender and then blasted the Pro Bowler Reed. Kind of cheap, but a legal hit.

Wait Guys! There's Something Wrong With The Banner........Oh No......
Monday, October 29, 2007
I'm not lying when I say I've watched this video about fourteen times already. I was slow in getting it up because I was laughing so hard. Watch as this cheerleader from a highschool in the state of Washington tries to fix her precious little sign right before the team is supposed to run through.
Nice "Dances With Wolves" reference in there by the Sportscaster, but did you have to repeat it 20 times in a row like that at the end? That's just wrong.
