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.

Dare to Dream of Hillary

I get it: she’s not a rich white man. But boy is Hillary Clinton ever ready to be our next President. While vetting each and every issue the nation faces is the most important part of this process, there’s more to Clinton than just a detailed, outstanding set of policies. She’s got character, conviction, a […]

Time to Take This Seriously

OK… that time was long, long ago… South Park warned us. John Oliver destroyed Drumpf. Now, it’s our turn Americans: let’s vote in Hillary in New York, Cali, Indiana, New Jersey, & PA and take this election home! My heart is deeply saddened by my own peers who distrusted a supremely qualified candidate who happens to […]

Tigers Must Adjust to Soar

Tigers Must Adjust to Soar

Right now, we’re 3-0 and in perfect position to stop: remember last year; look: we started this hot in 2015, too; AND LISTEN: SEE WHAT’S GOING ON! Now, as a child, I learned that phrase at “Safety School,” and because baseball is just a kid’s game, the strategy is often elementary. All we need to […]

Too Many Teams to Follow

So, it’s not the Palestine-Israel conflict, but seeing my Tigers on opening day created a log-jam at centerfield with the Pistons on TNT at the same time. (NO, that analogy DOES NOT need to make sense!) For real though, oldschool & I were on another Justin Verlander ride and our poor pushing for the playoffs […]

Curry: Why Did We Let This Happen?

Once upon a time, millions of years ago, we were allowed to play defense in the NBA. But sometimes (Drumpf, Bernie…) you become so numb to what’s trending, you think it’s actually normal behavior. Call it mob-mentality, “lemmings,” etc. It’s kind of scary to think for yourself. This is the history of man: the white-man […]

Pistons Answer Biggest Test of Season

In Chicago, the Detroit Pistons grinded out a tough victory between two teams fighting for their playoff lives. Maybe it was ugly for an outsider, but this was classic Bulls-Pistons basketball. It stayed within five either way pretty much non-stop. We trailed one after one, and led by one at halftime. It was a pretty […]

Really, Really Weird Pistons Game

First, Marcus Morris caught video-game fire. He made four 3s in the opening frame to the tune of 16 points, but we only scored nine as a team besides him, equaling a tie game at 25. Then, we went ice cold. Maybe Reggie Jackson shouldn’t have been celebrating so soon… we only scored 11 points the […]

Women All Over the World

Even for an extremely bad person, Drumpf’s Wednesday took the cake: he managed to issue a declaration waging war on women’s reproductive health, threatening sentencing to jail for having an “abortion.” Furthermore, his crowd at a Wisconsin rally molested a 15-year old girl (protesting), sprayed her with mace upon her confronting them, and called her […]
