GABRIEL BOUYSAn Oregon man who survived a harrowing ordeal in a Burger King restroom is now suing the restaurant. It's just not for what you think.

After being locked inside the single-stall fast-food restroom for more than an hour — which sounds like the plot of Netflix's horror film follow-up to Bird Box — 50-year-old Curtis Bronner was promised free food for life at the Portland-area establishment he often frequents, according to The Oregonian.
“It’s the kind of place where you hold your breath: Go in and get out of there as fast as you can,” Brooner told The Oregonian of the incident that required a locksmith to free him. “That wasn’t an option for me.”
Talk about a nightmare. But after Bronner went to BK for lunch the next 13 of 15 days (only skipping Christmas Eve and Christmas Day when he presumably goes to White Castle instead), the restaurant refused to let him eat on the house anymore. Apparently, Bro..

Charles Barkley has never and will never shy away from a bold take. Whether it's a brutally honest assessment of what could stop the Golden State Warriors, an odd roast of Kevin Durant after a 51-point performance, or straight up telling a small child he was going to punch him in his left eye, the guy has turned saying exactly what's on his mind into an art form.

The thing is, in the midst of all his wackiness, his actual basketball takes are often insightful and serious. That goes for all the guys on the NBA on TNT. When they actually talk basketball, people listen. Unfortunately, some of the social media attention goes to Chuck's “guarantees,” which can sometimes be both weak and mathematically-challenged. However, his latest guarantee was neither weak, nor mathematically-challenged, and it would be a welcome sight to NBA fans, specifically those who have had enough of the Golden State Warriors:

Sam GreenwoodIf you thought 2018 was the Year of Bryson, think again haterz. We're only four days into 2019, and the artist formerly known as the mad scientist is already back with a vengeance, making good on his research-driven pledge to leave the flagstick in while putting this season. On Thursday, the impressively fickle golf internet got their first glimpse of the percentage of a percentage-altering approach, and despite Bryson DeChambeau leading the Sentry TOC field in strokes gained putting on his way to a 4-under 69, there were still plenty of lukewarm takes to go around. But in the immortal words of LeVar Burton, don't take our word for it…

The social-media reaction from fans to the new graphics Golf Channel used during the Sentry Tournament of Champions broadcast suggests it wasn't love at first sight

Streeter LeckaThere are two types of people in this world: Those who follow the rules and those who break them…and Joel Dahmen is a card-carrying chapter president of the former. You may remember Joel from his 25-minute on-course saga at the Quicken Loans National last summer, where he accused Sung Kang of lying about his ball crossing a lateral hazard and then subsequently taking a bad drop that he believed should have never been awarded in the first place. After the round, he clarified his position on Twitter while presumably ironing pleats into his khakis:

Needless to say, when it comes to the Integrity of the Game™, the man is not playing around. Not content to simply take on the heathen cesspool that is the PGA Tour, however, on Thursday night Dahmen set his sights on even greater foe—the NBA. DRAIN. THE. SWAMP! DRAIN. THE. SWAMP!

Referees in Thursday's Rockets-Warriors game made the worst non-call in NBA history. This is not an opinion, but a fact that you will agree with wholeheartedly once you see the following video. Good thing, as us ballers on the streets — and Rasheed Wallace — say, “BALL DON'T LIE!”

The mind-blowing sequence happened late in an overtime thriller between the two teams who went to seven games during last year's Western Conference Finals. Golden State's Kevin Durant attempted to save the ball from going out of bounds, but he took three steps out of bounds in order to do so and never re-established himself inbounds before touching the ball. In fact, he had BOTH feet out of bounds as he flicked the ball back in, and yet no whistle was blown, leading to Stephen Curry making the go-ahead shot. Check it out:

The Las Vegas Golden Knights just get it. Sure, sure, they made the Stanley Cup Finals in their first season of existence and have a pre-game show that makes Game of Thrones look like a county Ren Fair, but that's not what we're talking about. What we're really talking about here is their ongoing love affair with our ongoing love affair: Golf.
Back in November the team hosted Bryson “Dr. Frankenstein” Dechambeau, and he nearly ripped his hand off ringing the ol' air raid siren…

…and now the Knights have added a Topgolf-themed light show to their pre-puck festivities, replete with a spotlight “golf ball” and a bunch of hammered Vegas locals howling every time it hits one of those splashy targets. Throw a t-shirt gun and an ATV into the mix, and you've got one hell of a sports stew going:

JOHANNES EISELEAs golf fans are well aware, Dustin Johnson has had two of the more famous rules run-ins in recent golf history. There was the accidental grounding of his club in a waste bunker that cost him the 2010 PGA Championship and the accidental micro-moving of his golf ball that nearly cost him the 2016 U.S. Open. So with a major revision of golf's rules taking effect at the start of this year, it made sense that the former World No. 1 was asked if he's stayed abreast of the changes. And — perhaps, not surprisingly — it doesn't sound like he has.
Here's an exchange Johnson had at his Wednesday press conference ahead of this week's Sentry Tournament of Champions, where DJ is the defending champ:
Q. I know you joked about it there at the start but have you paid any attention to the rules changes or how much effort have you put into looking at what the changes will be?
