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.

Defense Wins Championships

Don’t forget it, Pistons. It was a Charlotte lead to begin the game, but Detroit closed the first quarter to trail only one. All the Bobcats – whoops, Hornets could do was hit three’s and feed Al Jefferson. Eventually, with a double team on Al and a halftime adjustment on the triples, the Pistons stopped […]

Great News, Tigers Fans

Victor Martinez of Detroit Tigers expected to be ready for start of season: “The Tigers announced that Martinez had successful surgery to repair a torn left meniscus and that he will ‘resume full activity’ in four to six weeks.” “We are very happy the surgery went well and that Victor will be ready to compete […]

Congratulations to Beck, Album of the Year!

Congratulations to Beck, Album of the Year!

Just when I thought the chipmunk had turned a corner after […]

Current State of NFL

If you don’t think Roger Goodell needs to be fired, check out what’s been allowed to happen under his watch: The NFL Anti-Gay! (Michael Sam) Pro-Bullying (Richie Incognito!) Pro-Murder (Aaron Hernandez!) Pro-Cheating! (Super Bowl Champs cheat to get there; best defense, Lions, cheated by billionaire owner.) Pro-Abuse (Ray Rice for women! Adrian Peterson for kids!) Lame-Rule […]

Criticism of RG3 Absurd

Robert Griffin III spars with fans on Instagram over social media habits – ESPN. You Redskins (racist!) fans do realize what you did to Robert Griffin III, right? Or have you forgotten how Mike Shanahan kept him out there against Seattle to die? Griffin comes from an army-lifestyle where all he has done his whole […]

Clippers Dig Deep

Without Blake Griffin, the other Clippers had to step it up. In Dallas they did just that, winning every quarter along the way to a 115-98 win. Chris Paul scored 25 and dished out 13 assists, but it was big man DeAndre Jordan who was our MVP. He scored 22 on 8-12 shooting to go […]
