Welcome!

TheSportingSnarf  is a website dedicated to the enjoyable, humorous, and nuanced aspects of the sporting and (to a lesser extent) pop-culture world.  We attempt to touch upon (in varying degrees of print/video length) engaging topics which are not discussed nearly enough. We’d love for you to give us your perspective, network, and participate regularly. But if you’d just like to join in on the mob-mentality and get all sanctimonious on a particular sports figure — head on over to ESPN.com. (Mickey Mouse welcomes you.) Or you can keep it real with us.

Good Luck Lions

It’s going to be cold. As we saw in Michigan & Michigan State’s games, sometimes it’s hard for the receivers to hold onto the ball. Oldschool and I noticed it right away, and sure enough, the lone interception for the Wolverines was on a loose ball in the air after the receiver couldn’t catch it. […]

OAKLAND RAIDERS!

Rookie QB Derek Carr led his Raiders 80 yards in seven minutes, completing a fourth down and three other third downs along the way. Carr found James Jones in the end zone with under two minutes remaining for the go-ahead touchdown. […]

Valiant Pistons Comeback in Auburn Hills

Even though the Detroit Pistons lost, I guarantee every fan left the Palace feeling like a winner. The Pistons hosted the Phoenix Suns on Wednesday. The first half was a feel-’em-out sluggfest, a low-scoring, tie game. The Suns usually run, but the FagTwins were stifled by Detroit’s D. Meanwhile, they had no answer for our […]

Pistons Light Up Thunder in OT

The Pistons started strong on the road, taking an early 12-4 lead. Greg Monroe looked too powerful in the post, and Josh Smith was getting it going as well. Oklahoma City relied heavily on jump shots without Kevin Durant or Russell Westbrook. Detroit looked unstoppable when attacking the hoop, however, a flurry of jumpers forced […]
