There are few things in sports better than a World Series Game 7, when the marathon of the baseball season comes down to one deciding day. It doesn't get more dramatic, and everyone is aware of the stakes. Or, at least, we thought they were.

Ahead of Wednesday night's tilt between the Astros and Nationals, Fox's Houston affiliate put up the most obvious sports graphic of all time, reminding local fans how important Game 7 was for the Astros:

“ASTROS MUST WIN GAME SEVEN TO WIN WORLD SERIES.”
WHOA! REALLY?! Even Stephen A. Smith breaks down baseball better than that. Kudos to Fox26 Houston, though, for not using “BREAKING:” as well. That must have taken some restraint.

Let's make one thing clear: I am a massive fan of David Pollack. I first started to follow the Georgia Bulldogs when he was the team's biggest star, and the way he wreaked havoc on opposing quarterbacks was a sight to behold. I'm an even bigger fan of his post-football career work on ESPN. I don't actually think he should be put in prison.
HOWEVA, it did enter my mind when seeing this viral photo of Pollack's “top 10 things to hand out instead of Halloween candy” list that's making the rounds on Twitter. You may not see a more terrifying list of things in your life:

Checking in at No. 7 is sadness, which is somehow the most appealing thing on the entire list. Pennies? Those are garbage, literally. Pencil? Unless it's a Lee Corso game-used No. 2, you can get the hell OUT. Pecans? Maybe the worst nut of all the nuts. What a sick, sick individual.
While this may seem like a joke, I'm not s..

It's October 30th, All Hallow's Eve, and across the nation—nay, THE WORLD!—baseball nerds are waking up with a smile on their face and a pep in their step, because it's officially bonus baseball day. After 162 regular season games, four weeks of postseason, and six rounds of World Series ball, things are all knotted up between the Washington Nationals and Houston Astros, which can only mean one glorious thing: World Series Game 7, AKA the best thing in professional American sports.
In the long (longgggg) history of Major League Baseball, there have been 39 World Series Game 7s—some of them classics (1960, 2016) and some of them not (19..

In golf, there are good breaks, and there are definitely ones that don't go your way. Here are some examples of the latter from the U.S. Open.

The NBA season is in full gear, but the best dunk of the past couple weeks came in a high school gym and involved some friendly fire. We have no background on how it came to be that a high school basketball coach posterized one of his players back to middle school, but boy, are we glad he did.

When I played high school basketball, we did layup lines, but now the cool drill is to try to dunk on someone (athletes are really evolving, huh?). And for some reason, some undersized shooting guard (been there) tried to take on his much bigger coach. It did not go well. Check it out:

First of all, LOL. The kid never stood a chance! Second, that coach has some serious hops!
