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.

Let’s keep supporting them while we’re at home […]

Tigers Put on Brilliant Performance

Here are the highlights from tonight’s 8PM – 2AM Tigers-Cubs game: Ian Kinsler batted second and belted a solo blast to left field for a 1-0 Tigers lead. Next up, Miguel Cabrera hit back-to-back at essentially the same spot. Gayly, it was ruled a double because of fan interference. No worries – J.D. Martinez (looking […]
