Another Crazy South Korean First Pitch

Damn, these South Korean girls are friggin' superwomen! First we had that rhythmic gymnast (who made Carly Rae Jepson's pitch even more embarrassing), and now we have Tae Mi, a Korean actress/taekwondoist whose first pitch is cooler and more exciting than an entire game of baseball. What I'm saying is baseball is boring.

Dwyane Wade's Ex Throws Bizarre Protest In Chicago

A divorce can be one of the most difficult thing for a person to go through, not only emotionally, but mentally and financially. The stress that comes along with parting ways with someone you believed to be your "soulmate" can seriously break a person down, especially if there are children involved. Still, that doesn't excuse …

Great Pitch, Carly Rae Jepsen!

MOVE ASIDE, South Korean Rhythmic gymnast Shin Soo-Ji. Your illusion to flawless bullet down the middle was cool, sure. But to really impress the crowds at an MLB stadium, you'll need something more. Skill. Strength. Precision. Or, you know. Whatever this is. Embedded media Seriously, Carly. The Padres would love you.

However, watching these Chicago Blackhawks fans travel a range of emotions as their team nearly lost and then TERRIFICALLY won the Stanley Cup last …

I watched game six of the finals with some friends and was able to yell at the appropriate times and clap and say "FOUL!" but in reality I was just mimicking what the people next to me were doing. It was embarrassing, I'll admit. So take …

BASE-jumping from Mount Everest

The only question I have about this video (because at this point there's no reason to ask WHY? because the answer is Red Bull) is whether or not this "Russian Extreme Sports Star" had to actually climb Mount Everest before he threw himself off of it. And if not, if he was somehow helicoptered up …

A for Effort, Jarrett Jack

We have seen some AWESOME basketball moves at the OBC offices, and also some terrible ones. Great ones that come to mind? Blake Griffin's hand switch mid dunk. This bad-ass Dwayne Wade and Lebron James alley-oop. This teenager's epic buzzer-beater that ended with someone getting a mouthful of ball. And of course, Taj Gibson's dunk …

26 Years of Shining Moments

Sorry for the absence yesterday, readers! A Monday can only be made MORE Monday-ful with a day in the hospital, amirite? Oh well, nothing 16 to 20 hours of sleeping can't solve (except AIDS, I guess). Let's start today with something pleasant, shall we? Perhaps with some NCAA basketball awesomeness? I haven't been paying much …
