This video comes to us via Reddit without a lot of context, but it’s easy enough to figure out. It’s your classic “pitcher tackles runner” baseball scenario. Wait, what

GASP, are you serious? What the heeeck?

That’s the analysis of the crowd, and it says it all. What the heck indeed, guy who has been playing baseball long enough to be a team’s pitcher but still thinks you can Monty Brown Pounce a dude to keep him from scoring.

The players and coaches all handled the situation well, but man, I feel like a guy blindsiding you with a tackle in BASEBALL deserves an organized team beatdown.

Edit: Who am I kidding? It’s probably an AT&T commercial.

Here’s a hang glider crash that goes about as well as one can. It ends with the glider practically diving through somebody’s bedroom window. If it wasn’t scary for the guy crashing, look at the image below. That’s straight out of a horror movie. Have fun never sleeping again, random strangers! (via DOTD)

Here’s The Fail Academy’s Best Fails of 2012. I wonder how hard it is to get tenure at the Fail Academy. Do you have to be really good for a long time, or really bad for a long time? If you’re the dean of the Fail Academy, are you the best or the worst?

Oh who cares, here’s guys falling off cliffs and shit. (h/t to Bob’s Blitz)

Just as I’m willing to be impressed with the vertical agility of this kid in the blue sweatshirt (who’s probably not Welker’s kid, to be honest), this other turd comes outta nowhere and takes his legs out from under him. Which is a horrible thing to do to any one of your friends, unless you get it on tape, which this little bastard did. And then Troy Polamalu threw him some guy’s shirt in the tunnel and three days later Roger Goodell fined him $25,000. He can afford it; look at that house! via.

On 205th knows that if you’re jumping over any body of water, there’s one rule and one rule only: Don’t come up short! Actually, there is a second rule, don’t wear a green shirt. Especially one that’s battery powered like this one. It’s one thing to crack your sternum and teeth into concrete and brick; it’s quite another to get electrocuted when you fall back into the pool. Sorry to lead off with a video today; if you’re looking for ankle-grabbing analysis, you can read my Donte’ Stallworth piece on KSK.

Rumors are swirling that Lance Armstrong could be up to something more than trying to win his eighth Tour de France next year.  He may be trying to BUY it.

It may not be unveiled next week, but the word is that Armstrong is involved in a possible buyout of Tour organisers Amaury Sport Organisation from its parent company the Amaury Group.

Furthermore, Armstrong may saddle up in the deal with Hein Verbruggen – the former president and now vice-president of cycling’s world body, the Union Cycliste Internationale. Some say it may be an Armstrong-UCI deal.

Remember how pissed off the French were an American — a Texan, no less — won their precious race seven years in a row?  Remember how they actually lined the streets to hurl insults at him, and how the French newspapers constantly accused him of doping even though he was never caught?  Yeah.  This should go over well.

You know, part of me thinks Lance might still be a little pissed about that stuff.  It must be nice to be that rich.  “Wait, they said what about me?  Well, find what their biggest source of national pride and buy it.  Also, adopt their children.  I want to raise them in my own image.”
