Devils center Blake Coleman scores goal of the year, possibly the decade, maybe even the century

It pains me to have to write in glowing terms about the New Jersey Devils, a team I hate with the fiery passion of a thousand suns. But sometimes you simply must remove your homer cap and tip it to the opposition. This is one of those times.
The N.J. Satans got their season underway on Friday night at home against the Winnipeg Jets, a team coming off a 6-4 loss to the New York Rangers. Still a bit hungover from that fast-paced, high-scoring affair, the Jets came out flat in Newark, quickly falling into a 3-0 hole late in the second period. With 6:17 to go, the Jets lost a face off in the Devils zone, and N.J.'s newest defenseman P.K. Subban lifted the puck to the other end of the ice in what appeared to be an innocent clearing attempt.

But that clearing attempt turned into a SportsCenter Top 10 play when Devils center Blake Coleman raced to the puck, beat out Jets defenseman Dmitri Kulikov ..

This Jon Rahm stare down would get him suspended at least one year from the Korean Tour

Jon Rahm has never and will never shy away from showing his emotions on the golf course. While he's never gone full Bio Kim and flipped a fan the bird, he's had his fair share of outbursts, though they are usually always directed at himself for his own poor play.
But on Thursday at the Spanish Open, Rahm had a little run-in with a fan behind the sixth tee. Immediately following impact, the fiery Spaniard dropped his club in disgust , turned around, stared directly at whoever angered him and gave him the famous Club Pro Guy stance. Here's the video captured by Golf Channel:
It's unclear which fan it was or what they did, but whatever it was it obviously irked Rahm. There were multiple people with phones out filming, but we don't want to assume.
Our question is, between the club drop, the stare down, the histrionics and the hard club slam into the bag, how long would this get Rahm suspended on the Korean Tour? One tournament? One month? The rest of the year? Luck..

Florida man beats mechanic with golf club for fixing car too slow, because Florida man

The list of “Florida man” stories has become the stuff of legend in recent years. And not the good kind of legend. In fact, there are so many that Esquire published “The 90 Wildest Florida Man Stories of 2019 (So Far).” In APRIL! But while it's tough to keep track of all these wild crime tales (Things like “Florida Man Dances through DUI sobriety test” and “Florida Man Who Allegedly Threatened Family with Coldplay Lyrics Ends Standoff After SWAT Promises Him Pizza”), one jumped out on Friday morning because Florida man struck again. Literally.

Troy Aikman continues year of the roast by crapping on Cooper Kupp’s dad on live television

Troy Aikman is absolutely feeling himself in 2019. Don't believe us? Back in August, he took sports radio personality Doug Gottlieb (of credit card fraud fame) to the woodshed for his awful take on Andrew Luck's retirement, which he immediately tried to write off as “sarcasm.” If you don't recall, here's what Gottlieb tweeted:

Everybody and their mother had a quote tweet, but nobody bodied Dougie quite like Aikman did:

What made this particularly great, other than the endless “BODY BAG” comments and pop culture GIFs in the replies, was that Aikman and Gottlieb both work for FOX. They're coworkers! And Aikman openly dumped on him. What a world.
A month later, Aikman was back at it, responding to a tweet from The Athletic's Kansas City Twitter account that randomly compared Patrick Mahomes to Aikman:
