The Best Game-Saving Catch You'll See In A Long Time

Two outs, bottom of the ninth, a two-run lead and a runner on base. Lower Columbia needs just one more out in the NWAACC Tournament to put Everett Community College away. This wouldn't be here if that out wasn't spectacular.

What followed was one of the more amazing game-saving catches you'll ever see. A home run -- and this was going to be a home run without the heroics -- would've tied the game. Instead an LC player dove over the fence. Words don't do it justice.

Mike Leach, Marriage Counselor

Washington State head coach Mike Leach on anniversaries:

I think you should drop some hints that basically a smokin' hot experience is expected and required out of her based on the 11 years of commitment that you've enjoyed together ... Make sure she understands that two can play at this game and she's not gonna come out of this thing unscathed.

There's more at CougCenter and it's all hilarious.

Hal Gill Played Playoff Hockey With Broken Tibia

This might just seem silly, but ... well, it's the Cup and all that.

Hal Gill apparently played with a broken foot or perhaps even a broken leg in the Nashville Predators playoff series against the Phoenix Coyotes. That's according to Montreal Gazette columnist Dave Stubbs, who had lunch with Gill on Friday afternoon.

Before The Conference Finals You Should Probably Watch This Video

Here's Pat Riley interviewing Michael Jordan 20 years ago in 1991. Can you imagine an NBA where Jordan never won a title? Where he decided against playing for the Dream Team?

This is a pretty awesome time capsule.

I'd never seen it before, and as the stakes get higher for guys like LeBron, KD, and Tim Duncan, MJ himself provides some pretty great perspective on what it all means.

For more context, check out Justin TInsley's piece at The Sports Fan's Journal.

Conan O'Brien Swings, Misses With Kings Vs. Coyotes Joke

On Friday, late night talk show host Conan O'Brien said this:

Damn, Conan. I thought we were friends. Forgetting the fact that the Kings and Coyotes are no longer actually playing each other and that the Kings have been a successful part of the Los Angeles sports landscape for 45 years, the "hockey doesn't belong in southern American city X" joke is pretty tired at this point.

You know the Kings responded. This is @LAKings we're talking about here.

Everything You Need To Know About The NFL's Collusion Defense In Less Than 100 Words

From the NFLPA's press conference Thursday:

Reporter: "What would you say to the owners contention that you guys signed off on the reallocation letter, and that should basically render the lawsuit null and void?"

DeMaurice Smith: "I guess the first thing I would ask is, 'It doesn't sound like you're denying the existence of collusion, now does it?'"

Alex Smith, Jon Beason Create Non-Story Over Cam Newton

Wednesday afternoon, 49ers quarterback Alex Smith chatted with the media following practice and was asked about improving the 49ers passing attack. While acknowledging the passing offense had room for growth, Smith made a pointed remark about the need for more yards on offense:

This is the honest truth, I could absolutely care less on yards per game. I think that is a totally overblown stat because if you're losing games in the second half, guess what, you're like the Carolina Panthers and you're going no-huddle the entire second half and, yeah, Cam Newton threw for a lot of 300-yard games. That's great. You're not winning, though.

Enter Carolina Panthers linebacker Jon Beason...

Kentucky Fan Makes Portrait Of Anthony Davis Out Of Cereal

Kentucky fans have never tried to hide the fact that they are a different breed. Traveling thousands of miles for games, wearing nothing but blue from November through March, turning your dog into a piece of a UK memorabilia; these are just things that come with the territory.

The latest example? A remarkably detailed portrait of Anthony Davis...made completely out of Reese's Puffs and Kix cereal.
