Over the weekend, Miami Heats star Dwayne Wade nailed a Hail Mary shot from 3/4 down the court, proving once and for all that he's either superhuman or, at the very least, demigod-like.
Sadly, the throw didn't count, because the referee had already blown the whistle, but that doesn't make it any less impressive, especially when you consider t...
March Madness—also known as the ‘Big Dance’ to college hoops fanatics—kicked off yesterday, but today, our top story in the world of sports comes from the tournament’s storied past. The time is 1992, and the two teams in question are Duke and Kentucky. The moment? The most famous buzzer beater in NCAA history.
With only 2.1 seconds remaining i...
The key to an amazing basketball dunk is style. Scoring the basket always comes secondary to the lead up—that is, the moves one performs before actually putting the ball in the hoop—prior to reaching the rim. Do you attempt a classic 360 spin? A Jordan tomahawk slam? Or, do you go for laughs with the windmill? It’s all up to you, but remember: f...
Here’s something Conan O’Brien never did when he was the host of “Late Night”: dedicate an entire segment to the lowest ranked NCAA team in the March Madness tournament. Last night, his successor Jimmy Fallon did just that, airing a two-minute video clip honoring the 16th seeded University of Tennessee Chattanooga Mocs.

Every athlete has a pregame routine that’s designed to help them get mentally prepared for an upcoming game. For some, it’s as simple as touching home base before heading onto the field. For others, it’s as complex as choreographing a mock photo shoot with your teammates.
LeBron James and his Cleveland Cavaliers teammates fall into the latter ...
Back in the late 80s/early 90s, “Iron” Mike Tyson was a heavyweight boxer who was both feared and revered. Then, Don King came into the picture and changed everything with a slew of calculated decisions and arranged matches that led to Tyson’s cataclysmic fall from grace.
Few would argue that Tyson’s woes—if you understand him to a be nothing ...

Goalkeeper, goalie, goaltender, netkeeper – noun, the defensive position on an ice hockey or soccer or lacrosse team who stands in front of the goal and tries to prevent opposing players from scoring.

It’s no secret that Jose Reyes, shortstop for the New York Mets, was born in the Dominican Republic. Naturally, this means that his native language is not English. However, just because he’s often heard conversing in Spanish to coworkers and friends alike doesn’t mean that he doesn’t understand our language fluently.
Apparently, not everyone i...
Not sure how many Big East fans we have here, but as a graduate of Syracuse University I feel like I am required to follow the conference. Not like Big Ten basketball scores in the low 50's are really making me regret my decision, but anyway...
This year, the Big East tournament will be including all 16 teams. I'm sorry, but this is just pla...
Nothing screams paper-thin defense like having an opponent dribbling the ball between your legs on a fast drive. I mean, when an opposing player treats you like a fleshy bump in the road that’s easily circumvented with minimal effort, you know your defensive skills are sorely lacking.
Over the weekend, New Orleans Hornets star Chris Paul prove...
