The BattleHawks name sounds like something out of anime, while their logo looks to appeal to the Christian dominionist crowd. Sure to be a big draw in STL.

Can I just say that Jones looks like he is deflating?

I’m disappointed that we don’t have any squirrel launch angel data. Come on, StatCast hosted by AWS; get with it!

That is a beautiful story and a great kid. Great dad, too.

Watch a college gymnastics meet and you’ll see teammates losing their minds for their peers.

Reminds me of the way David Berkowitz said his dog told him to shoot people.

If this gets people to stop talking about Bartman and the damn goat, I’m all for Nagy’s obsession.

More like a goose step.

Some of the bullpen brutality has been Maddon’s fault. Between his love of Brad Brach for reasons unknown to seeming to have a slow hook so relievers can dig themselves deeper and games can get blown., I’m wondering if he will be back next year.

Granted, he’s not the one who signed some of these guys or traded away…

Their friend’s outlets were all being used to charge their Google Glass.

Also, I love how the billionaires who own sports franchises…

Clean up of male tears on Aisle 007!

One day Neo there will try to escape a tag from El Mago and baseball internet will explode.

“Stop being such a whiny punk.”

Grant Williams and the entire Celtics summer league squad got him the best way possible: just run him into a Grant Williams screen. Which is what led to the second flagrant foul.

Ah, the sweet smell of roasted broflake!

The first Summer League game, his teammates were passing the ball to him at like regular 6-8, 6-10 guy chest height and everyone around Fall was just smacking at the ball. Hell, someone threw him a bounce pass.

Tonight against Denver, they just were running Alley plays; that’s like Alley Oop, but where Fall has no need…
