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.

More Greatness from Billy W.

How blessed are we? Bill Walton is announcing this whole fucking Maui tournament! (Or so it seems!) Here are some gems I took down during his broadcasting of Chaminade-UNLV: At 6-1, minutes into action: “Let’s just call the game and give it to Chaminade right now.” Other announcer: Really? “Throw it down one time big […]

The G of Bill Walton

Here’s a collection of what I was able to catch during the 2nd half of Bill Walton announcing the St. John’s-Vanderbilt game this afternoon: Bill is not a fan of the double-double: “The double-double is the most overrated in the history of stats.“ While talking about some swimming team staying near his hotel: “17 of […]

Michigan Debuts Successfully

Last season, to the unobserved, Michigan appeared to have an extremely poor season. However, it was due to the entire starting five turning pro from the national championship game, not to mention our few upperclassmen (Caris LeVert & Derrick Walton) getting hurt during the season. The AP poll respected our down the stretch effort, our […]

Michigan Dominates Rutgers

From start to finish, there was no denying Jim Harbaugh’s troops at home against the Scarlet Knights. For one, and we still don’t know why, the fat-black coach from the MSU game was replaced with a slightly less-fat white hedgehog. Our defense held strong all game, only allowing a touchdown on a kickoff. After taking […]

Wolverines Put Up A Wall

If you think your Halloween was scary, wait ’til you hear this tale from Michigan’s clash against Minnesota. The Gophers struck first, but the Wolverines limited them to a field goal in the red zone. From there, Michigan punched in two touchdowns to take a commanding 14-3 lead. However, Minnesota chipped away with another field […]

Backyard Hypocrisy

We all see Jim Harbaugh making $40 million dollars to coach the University of Michigan football team. So here’s how his players are fairing over the summer: Idk how the NCAA thinks we supposed to eat right with these lil indentured servant checks they give us..I Should've stayed in the dorms smh — JP5 (@JabrillPeppers) […]

One Shining Spartans

Michigan State came back to dominate the second half and cut down the nets. Tom Izzo outcoached Rick Pitino, holding them to the lowest shooting half by any team in the entire tournament. Pitino looked Calipari-Like on the sideline, clearly flustered once we got back in it. There was no ball movement, just desperation. For […]

ONWARD SPARTAN

ONWARD SPARTAN

Michigan State overcame some early struggles to keep at bay, trailing only 31-27 at halftime. Denzel Valentine found his rhythm in the second half, where he combined with Travis Trice to score 27 points, the same as the Sooners entire team. Sparty played as a more complete unit, staying composed against an athletic, cocky Oklahoma […]
