It takes a lot of nerve to try to kidnap a child in the middle of the day, in a crowded park, right in front of her parents. But that’s what one thug tried to do — and then immediately regretted it when a former pro-athlete showed up. From Breitbart: Former NHL tough guy Georges […]

The odds of this happening have to be astronomical. Two horses were killed in the Preakness Day undercard race and a jockey was seriously injured. Homeboykris had just won his first race. He then promptly dropped dead. Then Pramedya collapsed on the turf and broke her leg. She was euthanized on the track. Her jockey […]

Saturday night in San Diego, history was made by Mets Pitcher Bartolo Colon. He became the oldest player to ever hit his first home run. He’s 42 years old… almost 43. The big guy hit a 90 mph fastball into the left field corner of Petco Park. That’s about 357 feet. He claims it was […]

You can’t watch an old Sugar Ray Leonard fight, […]

…it goes about as well as you’d expect. At least it was a 24-year old female MMA fighter. And at least the grandmother wasn’t coerced into stepping in that ring. In fact, she made a big show of saying that “age is just a number” before going in there, so perhaps a dose of reality […]

What do you get when you mix a buxom blonde and the Miami Heat? A meltdown and a broken Internet. As Goran Dragic completed a layup, Alyssa Nelson jumped to cheer him on and all hell broke loose. She was wearing a very skimpy black dress with a severely plunging neckline that showed off her […]
