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.

Clippers Cannot Be Stopped

Since my local cable essentially features just the Pistons via FSD, I don’t dedicate as many articles to my favorite team out west, the Los Angeles Clippers. Ever since big man Blake Griffin went down with a quadriceps injury, the rest of the team has stepped up, winning 10 of 11 without him. What I’ve […]

NOT AGAIN

That’s on fucking fat fuck VAN GUNDY GOD DAMN HIM. He wasted an amazing 4th quarter comeback with 3 timeouts left hanging. We’re up 101-96 the same fucking bench unit has been in the entire time… and you don’t give them more than one rest? ON YOU FAT FUCK WHAT A GODDAMN UNACCEPTABLE OUTCOME AGAIN […]

Pistons Down a SF Stay Strong

Just the other day, the graphic had flashed: the only team in the NBA not to alter their starting lineup was the Detroit Pistons! And nothing’s gonna change, but small forward Marcus Morris was bothered by some tendinitis. In his place, two Pistons rookies took charge. Stanley Johnson took his spot in the starting lineup. […]

Mark Jackson Nails It

…he’s hurt the game. And what I mean by that is that I go into these high school gyms, I watch these kids and the first thing they do is they run to the 3-point line. Source: Mark Jackson Says Stephen Curry is hurting basketball – CBSSports.com Thank god he spoke up… this is his […]

Pistons Disappoint in Atlanta

First of all, you can’t enter Christmas bitter, so let’s acknowledge we were 5-23 at this point last year and similar (4-20 ish?) the season before. SO, being 17-13 or whatever is a solid starting point, for sure. How did we earn those early wins? By playing hard, notably on defense. We’re becoming a little […]

WELCOME TO GRAND RAPIDS

My dad and I made it to the DeltaPlex to watch the Grand Rapids Drive tonight, AND SO DID ANDRE DRUMMOND AND REGGIE JACKSON! Yee-Haw! So fucking awesome. Everyone was in attendance because Brandon Jennings, who has missed the last 11 months, was in the building for a rehab assignment. In the history of the […]

Sometimes, You Don’t Deserve to Lose

As much as I don’t like the Bulls of Chicago, anyone who is judging outside of the 68 minutes we all witnessed can shut the fuck up: WOW, what a battle. The Pistons fittingly won a gladiator affair, being as they are the one franchise distinctly known for toughness, ranking their Midwestern counterpart. NEVER forget […]

Sir Charles Reigns On

“That Bulls team would kill this little team,” Barkley said of the Warriors in an interview Thursday with ESPN Radio’s Waddle & Silvy show in Chicago. “Come on, man. Who is going to guard Scottie Pippen and Michael Jordan? What about Dennis Rodman?” Source: Chicago Bulls’ 72-win team ‘would kill’ Golden State Warriors, Charles Barkley […]

Clippers Earn Overtime Win at Palace

“Oh what a beautiful game” Unfortunately, we didn’t last until Double OT, b/c these two dynamite dunkington’s weren’t going anywhere. The Pistons trailed big early, watching LA swish several J’s. Nonetheless, we stormed back to tie it at 27 by the end of one. Never underestimate how a bad quarter can fuck you. Detroit only […]
