Penguins fan shaves Mario Lemieux tribute into his chest hair, achieves ultimate hockey guy status

Want to see something really gross? Then look no further than beautiful Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, where one random hero is making waves for the most horrifying hockey style statement ever on Thursday night: A yellow sweater with a massive, Christmas light-lined hole cut in the torso revealing a festive conifer and Mario Lemieux's iconic #66 shaved into his chest hair. If this man offers you nachos, just say no.

Now we've seen plenty of wild hockey salad over the years, from the Minnesota State High School All-Hockey Hair Team to these incredible retro renderings of modern superstars, but this is much gnarlier fare. Just look at it. LOOK AT IT. It's like he's been rubbing Rogaine on his stomach for months in preparation for this moment.
Now if you'll excuse us, we're gonna go scrub our minds-eye out with soap, because while life without Christmas trees is no problem, we're not sure what we'd do wit..

John Tortorella vs. cell phones continues to be one of the best longstanding rivalries in sports

John Tortorella's relationship with the media has been tense at best and toxic at worst throughout his career. The Columbus Blue Jackets head coach loathes the press conference, has no time for stupid questions and has never been afraid to single out certain reporters that draw his ire. His most famous, or infamous, relationship was with the New York Post's Larry Brooks, one documented in a few clips that belong in YouTube's Hall-of-Fame.
But if there's one thing he can't stand more than the press conference and the reporters in them, it's cell phones, specifically, when a reporter's cell phone goes off in a press conference. In Tortorella's view, if he has to go through this waste of his time he better have your undivided attention and you better not interrupt him with an unruly cell phone. The Sporting News' Sean Gentille summed up this “eternal struggle” quite nicely back in 2013, pointing to the most egregious cell phone offenses Torts w..

Philly construction worker greets Manny Machado in most Philly way possible

The Manny Machado sweepstakes are fully underway, and while the Philadelphia Phillies were once a slight favorite to sign the infielder, the latest odds have the New York Yankees as the clear cut favorite. They may be an even bigger favorite if the oddsmakers watch the video of Machado's arrival in Philadelphia on Thursday.
No disrespect to the great people of Philadelphia, because they really are the BEST people, but this scene can't make them feel good about their chances of inking Machado to a $300 million deal:

Maybe getting shouted at by a construction worker, being swarmed by reporters and then waiting on someone … anyone … helloooo … to open the damn door is Machado's idea of a world-class organization (he did play for Baltimore after all) and I'm completely wrong. Let's just compare it to his arrival and departure at Yankee Stadium:

11 “things” that help tell the story of the year in golf in 2018

Golf World just wrapped up its countdown of the top 25 Newsmakers of 2018, a ranking of players, events and moments that mattered this past year. It’s a good list, but in all honesty, it fell short in presenting the stories of a highly underappreciated, yet critical element, of our sport. An element that fills in the gaps that connect generations of golf history and provides color to the commentary.
So we’re here to set the record straight and provide some shade for those we overlooked.
Yes, we’re talking the top Newsmakers of 2018, inanimate-object division.
Seriously, much of golf’s iconography has to do with non-living, non-breathing things. The green jacket. The Swilken Bridge. The Stimpmeter. Tiger’s Sunday red shirt. It’s only appropriate that we give these things their due. So we’ve identified a handful of the most important “things” in golf in 2018. Some made us laugh. Some made us cry. And some just plain made us cringe.

Gritty goes on holiday rampage, takes out multiple Santa Clauses to become true king of Christmas

It's been a little while since we've heard from Gritty. Partly because the Flyers and Eagles stink and suddenly all of those good Philly feels have come back to the mean a little bit, and partly because post-Halloween, giant orange monster popularity generally takes a bit of a dip. The Flyers' formerly lovable mascot seems to have sensed the sea change as well, taking to the ice earlier this week disguised as Santa to open up a can of Christmas whoop-ass on some unsuspecting Santas and reclaim his crown as Humanity's Favorite Nightmarish Myth.

From the looks of these vicious hits—and even a wreath lasso—Gritty may well have sold his soul to Krampus himself. In fact, decked out in all that red and white, taking cheap shots at anything that moves, one might even mistake him for Tom Wilson. But the truth, as the Flyers' social media team wisely points ..

A visual history of The Rock’s (truly, utterly) ridiculous cheat meals

If you follow The Rock on Instagram (and if you don't, why do you even have Instagram?), you know the one thing Mr. Dwayne Johnson loves more than pumping iron (and talking about Mr. Dwayne Johnson) is eating. But The Rock doesn't eat like most normal humans because, let's be honest, he's not like most normal humans. Most of the time Johnson can be found woofing down 5,000+ calories of chicken, eggs, and fish over the course of SEVEN daily meals, but every now and then he cheats. We're not talking about a Reese's from the office candy jar, however. We're talking about some of the most daunting slabs of food ever placed in front a single human being, and thankfully for us mere mortals, he documents each soul-soothing pile in vivid, mouth-watering detail. So grab your forks repurposed snow shovels and join us for a culinary journey unlike any other.
