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.

Popovich Is a Fool

Here is a nice article breaking down just how dumb Hack-A-Center is: “…the cumulative effect of intentionally fouling him hurt the Spurs more than that free throw percentage suggests. Offensive Rebounds -We got them on 2 of Jordan’s 5 tries at the end of game two “That isn’t some fluke. FiveThirtyEight found that the Clippers rebound […]

Obama FAILS

The New England Patriots were honored by Barack Obama at the White House on Thursday afternoon, with the president calling them “as good an organization as there is in professional sports.” Source: President Barack Obama lauds New England Patriots, gets in ‘Deflategate’ jab He then looked back at head coach Bill Belichick, who smiled and […]

Clippers Play Perfect Game 2

The Spurs were trying so hard. But LA rope-A-doped them, keeping pace enough to force overtime in an eventual loss. The reffing was overwhelmingly one-sided. Joey Crawford, after all, is still alive. While the old geezer means well, it’s like watching your drunk grandpa be in charge. It’s a goddamn NBA playoff game, right? Doc […]

Red Wings Claim Game Three

Justin Abdelkader returned from injury just in the nick of time, helping Detroit fight off some dirty play. You wouldn’t guess Stevie Y’s team would be so gay. But, they are. At one point in the third period, they took Petr Mrazek out from under his skates with a slash, and Abdelkader had seen enough. […]

Tigers Find Another Way to Win

Jose Iglesias is becoming a one man show at shortstop. He dazzled Comerica with more theatrics today, turning swift double plays and finding unreachable throws make their way to Miguel Cabrera. Our team once again used defense and pitching to win a close low-scoring affair, 2-1. Alfredo Simon out-dueled C.C. Sabathia, who went a complete […]

Clippers Control Game One

LA beat San Antonio 107-92 in a game they never really trailed. Blake Griffin and Chris Paul had monster games to put away the Spurs down the stretch. Behind confident defense, the Clippers led 30-18 after one quarter. However, our bench put us behind on a quick 10-0 Spurs run to start the 2nd. We […]

Grand Slam: Return to Sender

Take that, White Sox! The Tigers refused to lose a series yet, returning yesterday’s favor right back to Chicago. Shane Greene shutdown his opposition once again, going seven smooth innings (and aided by four Tigers double plays). Ian Krol and Angel Nesbitt guided us the rest of the way. Let’s begin in the bottom of […]
