I hate it when that happens. You score a goal in the other team’s building and go to give a standard backwards closed fist salute to their fans and you’re friggin glove gets stuck in an awkward position! That’s what “happened” to the Bruins’ Andrew Ference after scoring a goal in the 2nd period thursday [...]

“Drunk” Guy at Sweetwater 420 Festival Adds Special Touch to Dead Confederate Performance
Frump couldn’t let April 20th pass without posting something at least remotely related to today’s “special holiday.” With that in mind, here’s a “drunk” guy — clearly a huge fan of Athens-based band Dead Confederate — truly letting himself go at Atlanta’s Sweetwater 420 music festival. Pretty epic, eh? I put “drunk” in quotes, because [...]

EA Sports adds real, live, virtual mascots to NCAA Football 2012
You’ll still have to download someone’s meticulously crafted roster file if you want the added luxury of genuine, uncompensated college football players’ names, but this year — for the first time — EA Sports has decided to include genuine, uncompensated, virtual likenesses of some of the game’s more notable, live mascots (at least until PETA [...]

Pic of the Day: Champagne, Wine and Jenga!
Aren’t you tired of all the negative stories associated with random acts of drunkeness? Sure, we all are. Isn’t it about time someone highlighted the accomplishments of the slightly more responsible, contributing members of drunken society? Say, like a Jenga tower replete with meticulously balanced champagne and wine bottles? You’re gosh darn right it is. [...]

Sharpsburg, North Carolina man stares down raging tornado, wins…
Meet Steven Hoag, of Sharpsburg, North Carolina. He may or may not be afraid of many things, but tornadoes — almost certainly — aren’t one of those things. Protected only by his built Ford tough truck, Hoag nonchalantly calls his wife from a parking lot adjacent to the Wilson, North Carolina Walgreens. Likely nothing out [...]

Woman gets hit by train in Sri Lanka, walks away unscathed
If you’ve been in the market for a video of someone getting hit by a locomotive — and living to complain about all the ridiculous people concerned for her well being — then today’s your lucky day. Now, I’m still not convinced this is real. That is, I think it’s a distinct possibility the witnesses [...]

Video: Kiss on Cheek Floors Georgia QB Aaron Murray at Benefit for Children with Special Needs
At a time when scandals and notorious lapses in student-athletes’ judgment — not to mention the judgment of those responsible for them — dominate the college sports headlines (See UNC, Ohio State, Kentucky, UConn, USC, Tennessee, South Carolina , Florida , Auburn/Mississippi State, etc.), I suppose it’s nice to come across something reminding us that [...]

Video: Kentucky Football Commit Had a Fantastic Spring Break, May Have Lost His Scholarship In the Process
Ahhh, Spring Break in Panama City, Florida. The beach. The babes. The booze. The boom in business for the local Bar Association. And now — thanks to Kentucky’s 3* CB signee Daylen Hall — the tackling of security officers into hotel pools. Yes, that’s apparently Daylen you see up there getting into his 3-point stance [...]

Video: Kid wants to be a Yankees fan, but faces being disowned by his Red Sox family
Let this be yet another not so subtle reminder that the passion of sports/rivalries often run(s) thicker than blood. Remember the little Crimson Tide kid that didn’t want to be put in the Auburn store? Where we posited that sports may actually have an effect on genetics/evolution? Here — while the core principle remains the [...]

Video: Tractor goes all “Maximum Overdrive” at Canadian Walmart
Frump’s seen a lot of good pranks go down at Walmart (not really), but this one clearly takes the cake (by default). At 6+ minutes, this video may require something closer to one of those ancient, 20th century internet attention spans, but then the random, meaningless destruction is probably well worth the wait. Here’s the [...]

Something for the Weekend: The Very Best of Business Cat
This one goes out to Frump’s friend, DBJ — the only person I know that probably appreciates Business Cat more than I do. Many memes will come and go, but something tells me Business Cat will continue to warm the hearts of countless crushed, cubicle-confined souls across this great capitalist nation of ours for many [...]

Want to add a bit of flair to an otherwise pedestrian penalty kick? Throw in a backflip, FTW
Amongst goals, scoring from the spot — despite the occasional accompaniment of circumstantially meaningful tension — is typically a somewhat drab display of the beautiful game’s most climactic event. Thankfully, players sometimes try to spice things up a bit — at least when the stakes are relatively low. Many thanks to FC Baar’s Joonas Jokinen [...]
