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.

Where Has the NBA Gone?

To me, sports are supposed to be relatable to the same game we play as kids in the backyard. But in the 21st century, with all the ads and adjustments to the rules for TV ratings, just like BASEketball discussed, we’re losing the real spirit. Take the Golden State Warriors as the prime example. Clearly, […]

Road of Choice

Hillary Clinton is extremely close to clinching her party’s nomination for the November election, and for all of us supporters, we’re ready to roll. However, many others, especially Republicans, seem to have no idea who to vote for. Instead of cynically succumbing to a negative dialogue, why doesn’t the middle class remember their values? My […]

Change the Batting Order

You could claim the Tigers’ resurgence of late is due to Brad’s infamous ejection on Monday, but maybe it has had more to do with the return of originally drafted by Detroit Cameron Maybin? In just four games back in uniform, he is leading our team with as many stolen bases. And he’s worked the […]
