Loyola-Chicago’s adorable 98-year-old team captain Sister Jean continues to win March Madness

Loyola-Chicago continued their improbable run through the South region on Thursday night, taking down Nevada in a close game to ensure a berth as an 11th-seed in the Elite Eight.
The Ramblers' Cinderella story is the type that makes the NCAA Tournament so much fun to follow. The program hasn't been this far in March Madness since its championship in 1963. Heck, Loyola-Chicago hadn't even made the tournament in 33 years.
And as the Ramblers continue to survive and advance, it has put more of a spotlight on their 98-year-old team captain, Sister Jean, who has been the team chaplain since 1994. And in the past couple of weeks, she has become quite the celebrity. Sister Jean has appeared on ABC's “Good Morning America,” NBC's “Access,” and according to ESPN's Darren Rovell, she has been tweeted about more than anybody else—player, or otherwise, during March Madness. That's celebrity status.
So it's no surprise Sister Jean stole the show again on Thur..

54-year-old Laura Davies shoots 82 week after contending

CARLSBAD, Calif. (AP) Laura Davies had a nightmare round days after contending for a title at age 54, and Caroline Hedwall, Jackie Stoelting and Hee Young Park topped the Kia Classic leaderboard.

Davies shot a 10-over 82 on Thursday at rainy Aviara Golf Club – four days after tying for second behind Inbee Park in the Founders Cup, and five days after shooting a 9-under 63 in the Phoenix event.

Fighting Achilles tendon and calf problems in her left leg, Davies opened double bogey-bogey-par-bogey. She bogeyed Nos. 9, 10 and 12, had another double on 15 and bogeyed 16. The 82 was the World Golf Hall of Famer’s highest score on tour since also shooting 82 in the 2013 Marathon Classic. On Monday, she jumped 208 spots to No. 155 in the world.

Russell Crowe’s “divorce auction” looks like the rager of the year

Dave J HoganRussell Crowe is getting divorced. For most ordinary humans, this is cause for introspection and consternation—an opportunity to reevaluate one's self in the face of our most universal societal failure. Russell Crowe, however, is not an ordinary human. He's an Academy Award-winning Cinderella Gladiator Spy Captain and for him divorce isn't a failure, it's just another excuse to get shithoused on old cognac and Australian bikini models. Case in point: The Art of Divorce, Crowe's gleefully over-the-top, Sotheby's-sanctioned “Divorce Auction”, which is set to get underway next month with a veritable treasure trove of Crowe estate goodies—including but by no means limited to the greatest divorce auction catalog in the short history of divorce auctions catalogs—on the block.

Watch husband rethink entire marriage as wife repeatedly belts out Alanis Morissette songs

Thanks to the internet and the stupid teenagers that seem to populate it, there's no shortage of mind-numbing “trends” that TAKE SOCIAL MEDIA BY STORM on a seemingly weekly basis. One minute they are innocently planking on a wall somewhere and the next they are eating laundry detergent and literally poisoning themselves. Buncha rascals!
But every now and then, there's a fad we can get behind, even if it forces a husband to rethink his entire marriage. That latest fad is called “Morissetting” and it's not even really a fad, and it's actually just called “Morissetted”, because Twitter user Lisa Shmeesa (@LisaRieffel) is the only one to ever do it that we know of. Watch as Lisa repeatedly belts out Alanis Morissette songs (a spot-on impression, by the way) in her husband's face and films the absolutely incredible results:
