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.

R-E-S-P-E-C-T

On a night where washed up reality TV star Bret Michaels played the halftime show at the Palace, Aretha Franklin was also in attendance.

Tough Loss in Milwaukee

Just didn’t have our mojo Saturday night in Milwaukee. The most important thing is Brandon Jennings. He left the game with an injury, he was in real pain until they helped him off the court (possibly grabbing his calf). Please, God, don’t let it be serious. Jennings has been the soul of this resurgence, our […]

Clippers Blowout Nets

The Clippers took it to the hole at will, dunking and laying it up for 70 first half points. In the end, Blake Griffin and DeAndre Jordan shot a combined 18-21 and snagged 18 rebounds. That was only in three quarters of play – after we went up 89-44, Doc pulled the starters. Chris Paul was […]

Game Over

But the most important thing — the Patriot legacy — is lost. The Patriots and their fans will never win the “best ever” argument. Everything is tainted. Footballs (reportedly) have been doctored, headlines have been written, and opinions have been formed. Adding to the evidence: “Patriot has not won a road playoff game in seven […]
