Video: Michael Ryder Dents Stanley Cup in Newfoundland
It was Michael Ryder’s day with the Stanley Cup the other day, and he brought it to his hometown in Newfoundland. Harmless, right? Not if you’re the Cup. Ryder, now with the Dallas Stars, brought the Cup over to a table to take pictures with it, and when he let go…
Video: Boob Grab at Red Sox-Orioles Game on NESN
It’s called Friendly Fenway Park for a reason: fans are supposed to go out to the ballpark to enjoy a family-friendly atmosphere. Those who actually attend games know that’s not at all true.

Video: Derek Jeter Hits Home Run For 3000th Hit

Video: David Ortiz, Kevin Gregg Fight in Red Sox-Orioles Brawl
The fireworks after Monday’s July 4th game reappeared Friday night at Fenway. Orioles pitcher Kevin Gregg threw inside twice at David Ortiz, prompting benches to clear in the eighth inning.

Human Home Run Launched At Lowell Spinners Game
In between a double header between the Lowell Spinners and the Connecticut Tigers, 69-year-old daredevil David “Cannonball” Smith was shot out of a cannon and over the right field fence for the unlikeliest of home runs. As he was being set up, Hulk Hogan’s “Real American” entrance music was playing, and if that doesn’t get [...]

Video: Vancouver Rioter Takes Tear-Gas Canister in the “Abdomen”
If you’re going to destroy cars, smash windows and set things on fire, you’re probably going to bring out the riot cops. And with riot cops usually comes tear gas, as this unfortunate rioter found out:
Video: Johnny Boychuk Hits Mason Raymond in Bruins-Canucks Game 6
In an already chippy series, it only took a few moments into Game 6 to have the first serious hit. The hit, itself, didn’t look all that serious though. Canuck Mason Raymond was bent over and skated backwards, hitting the boards butt-first while his neck and shoulders had contact with Johnny Boychuk. In simpler terms, [...]
Video: Roberto Luongo Criticizes Tim Thomas on Maxim Lapierre’s Game 5 Goal
Tim Thomas has played outstanding for the entire Stanley Cup, and may be in line to win the Conn Smythe whether or not the Bruins win the Cup. He allowed just one goal in a 1-0 defeat in Game 5, but Vancouver goalie Roberto Luongo said that one goal would have been an “easy save” [...]
Video: Tim Thomas Fights Alex Burrows in Bruins-Canucks Game 4
Tim Thomas isn’t afraid defend his turf. You may remember his check on Henrik Sedin in Game 3. In Game 4, he took it to a whole new level. Pest Alex Burrows, who famously bit Patrice Bergeron and was not punished for it, was in front of the net on a Canucks power play late [...]
Video: Johnny Boychuck Slapshot Hits Steven Stamkos in Face, Causes Broken Nose?
Lightning winger Steven Stamkos was the recipient of a hard slapshot to the face in the second period off the stick of Johnny Boychuk (the puck was redirected off the stick of Martin St. Louis).

Video: Nathan Horton Sprays Water Bottle On Lightning Fan
Sometimes the pressure cooker that is the NHL playoffs is thrilling. It’s inarguable that the games are some of the best competition you’ll see in American sports. And sometimes it turns grown, grisly men -some of the toughest athletes in the world- into petulant children.
Video: Tim Thomas Stick Save on Steve Downie in Bruins-Lightning Game 5
The Bruins won Game 5 of the Eastern Conference Finals 3-1 to take a 3-2 series lead. Tim Thomas made 33 saves, but perhaps none were bigger than the stop he made on Steve Downie in the third period. Thomas dove back to cover up his open net when Downie (no relation to myself) fired [...]
Video: Marlon Byrd Hit By Pitch in Face in Cubs-Red Sox Game
In case you missed it Saturday night, Cubs outfielder Marlon Byrd was drilled in the face by a pitch from Red Sox righty Alfredo Aceves.
