Two minor leaguers combined on one of the crazier looking catches we’ve seen. The Corpus Christi Hooks, the double-A affiliate of the Houston Astros, were losing 4-0 on Saturday and six outs away from their seventh straight defeat when two of …
Tis the day to showcase the abilities of freakishly athletic football players at small schools here at LBS. Earlier in the day, we showed you the cornerback from Presbyterian who can jump onto a 5-foot stack of boxes from the stand-still position. If …
How would David Stern handle this one? Excessive hanging on the rim in the NBA is a technical foul. I wonder if that same rule applies for players who can hang on the rim and taunt their opponents without actually hanging on the rim. Paul Sturgess, a …
This is why playing soccer in hurricane-like conditions can be tricky. And if you must, keep the ball on the ground. During a friendly match against Dynamo Kiev on Wednesday, Maccabi Haifa goalie Assaf Mendes attempted to boot the ball downfield to …
Redskins wide receiver Niles Paul only has two career passes, but as Jimmy Traina says, after showing athleticism like this, they may need to find more playing time for him. In this video, both Paul and Keith Eloi, a wide receiver in the UFL, do …
You don’t see that very often. Roger Federer was obviously just flicking the ball in the direction of the sideline during his Australian Open semifinal match against Rafael Nadal on Wednesday. I highly doubt he expected the ball boy to make …
You think he could do that again if he tried? As you can see, Glenwood High School sophomore Daniel Helm pulled off a miraculous shot during a recent game. The only problem is he didn’t do it on purpose. What is even more of a problem is that …
When it came to the Clippers, most of the excitement during the abbreviated NBA offseason centered around the acquisition of Chris Paul. Paul is expected to turn Los Angeles into Lob City, so the buzz is completely warranted. However, it has also …
The headline of this post actually does the accomplishment no justice whatsoever. Unfortunately we have a limited amount of space to create our headlines, but this is one of those things that you have to see to believe. Brenda Hewlett, a 59-year-old …
UCLA may have lost the Pac-12 championship game to Oregon 49-31, but at least they scored one of the best highlights of the game. Senior wide receiver Nelson Rosario ensured the Bruins would cover the 31-point spread by making a spectacular …
Marshall beat East Carolina 34-27 Saturday to become bowl eligible at 6-6. They were down at halftime but tied things up and then won it in overtime. But it’s not the success of the Thundering Herd that matters; it’s the one-handed catch …
In the NFL, punts that travel more than 50 yards are often described as “booming” kicks. Do they even have a word to describe a punt that goes twice that distance? Here at LBS, we just call it another one of the many amazing plays …
Arkansas senior wide receiver Joe Adams had easily one of the best punt returns we’ve ever seen. In the picture above, you can see him. He’s the little red speck surrounded by monsters wearing orange and white. There were five bodies …
A one-handed catch is not always just a one-handed catch. Most of them are impressive, but some represent more important things than others. When Kellen Winslow pulled down this sick one-handed catch earlier in the season, it was a play you simply …
