Even Buffalo’s Streakers Are Terrible

Written by Brandon Stroud / 12.18.12

Here’s a clip of the Bills Seahawks streaker, and lord, he’s got to be the worst streaker I’ve ever seen. Just a harmless, normal guy who keeps on his underwear and gets subdued as soon as he starts. Damn, dude, next time you try that, buy a morphsuit. You’ll be just as pointless, but you’ll save your identity, and you’ll probably get on SportsCenter. (via Backyard Sports)

Meme Watch: The Internet Reacted Appropriately To The Texas Tech Streaker

Written by Ashley Burns / 10.17.12

Heading into last Saturday’s matchup between West Virginia and Texas Tech, most people expected that one of the quarterbacks was going to have a monster game and his team would win in a blowout, and that QB would be Heisman frontrunner Geno Smith. And as we know now, that was wrong. The real badass QB of the day was Seth Doege, as the Tech senior threw for 504 yards and 6 TDs in his team’s 49-14 thrashing of the then-No. 5 Mountaineers. But nobody cares about that anymore, thanks to that wonderful gentleman above.

The details of this Tracy Jordan-esque runner at Jones AT&T Stadium from this matchup are still mostly unknown. Some people claim to know the dum-dum’s name, but I don’t care about that. What I want to know is the important details, and thankfully when Scott MacWatters, the person who captured this incredible picture of the would-be streaker with a delighted police officer in chase, showed up on Reddit to take credit, one person asked the truly essential questions.

Now That’s How You Streak, St. Louis

Written by Ashley Burns / 05.25.12

Whereas 2011 was a high point in investigative journalism with the Jerry Sandusky and Bernie Fine cases, 2012 is clearly the year of streaker news. Already, our good friend Jon Bois at SB Nation has been keeping incredible track of the baseball season’s early abundance of streakers – most notably in Baltimore – but last night’s game between the Cardinals and Phillies at Busch Stadium marked the pinnacle in the journalistic attention to naked dudes.

Between our other good friend Matt Sebek from Joe Sports Fan and Yahoo! baseball writer Jeff Passan, we were given a clinic on how you cover and investigate a naked man on a baseball field. Thanks to Passan, we know that last night’s Busch streaker is 22-year old Jefferson Cirty landscaper Collin Grundstrom – talk about a Yard Crasher! *slide whistle* – and we also learned that he rushed the field for the most important reason of all – why the f*ck not?

“I’m gonna streak,” he announced at the beginning of the St. Louis Cardinals-Philadelphia Phillies game to those within earshot of Section 133, Row 5, Seat 4. At first, they chuckled. Then they started to believe him. Which was followed by attempts to dissuade him. And ultimate acceptance that, yes, Grundstrom was gonna streak, and it was only a matter of when.

“He was very nonchalant,” said Sheila Welch, a Cardinals fan who sat behind Grundstrom. “I tried to tell him he’d go to jail. He didn’t care. I hope his friend thinks that was awesome.”

The most important aspect of this story – even more important than that incredibly well-taken banner image – is that Grundstrom has a large tattoo across his midsection and Passan also pointed out that it reads: “Hakuna Matata”. It means no worries for the rest of your life, except when a fat security guard is Tazing you.

Soccer Player Booted For Being A Hero

Written by Ashley Burns / 03.08.11

Fewer things have worn out their welcome over the past decade than streakers at sporting events and terrible Borat impersonations. So when a fan dressed as Borat ran on the field during yesterday’s soccer football match between Dorchester and Havant & Waterlooville we reached a new low in idiotic fans. Security lollygagged as the fan ran circles around the field, so thankfully one of the players stepped up and dropped the fan like a sack of bangers and mash.

With the match tied at 1-1, Dorchester’s Ashley Vickers, who has a man’s name despite what my elementary and middle school classmates may have believed, did what the lazy security guards refused to do and chased the fan down, grabbed him by the arm and shoulder and threw his neon-bikini-wearing ass to the dirt. And while the crowd cheered and players from both teams seemingly defended Vickers’ actions, he received a red card and was ejected. Dorchester went on to lose 3-1.

As for Vickers, he couldn’t believe it, guvna…

That’s Not How You Streak, Buddy

Written by Ashley Burns / 01.12.11

Streaking at sporting events is a great tradition, like starting the wave or women in their 40s showing their jugs at a REO Speedwagon concert. But it’s generally something that has to be done with great care, because there are certain elements involved that could be greatly affected. Namely, genitalia. That’s why I see this video that is going viral on the intertubes as a wakeup call to would-be streakers out there.

The next time you want to run naked to interrupt a tennis match at the local YMCA, use your brains. Or at least use your eyes, because that window is as plain as day, dumbass.

Sid’s Scoring Streak Stopped As Alliteration Aficionados Applaud Arrogantly

Written by JOSH Z / 12.30.10

Pittsburgh Penguins point producer Sidney Crosby had scored in 25 straight games heading into last night’s tilt with the New York Islanders. In hockey, an individual “point” can be either a goal or an assist, and the Croz had registered one of those in every game his team had played since November 5th. But last night, despite 26 minutes of ice time, overtime, and a shootout, Crosby’s streak came to a halt.

“That wasn’t me. It was a complete team effort,” [Islanders goalie Rick] DiPietro said. “The defensive corps played with a lot of focus and a lot of heart. When we’re playing smart in our defensive zone, we’re a good hockey team.”

“It would’ve been nice to keep things going, but it was one of those games,” Crosby said.

–Y! Sports.

Oh, by the way, the Penguins won lost that game, 2-1. I’ve made it plainly known that Sidney Crosby is not my favorite player in the game right now, but 25 straight games with at least one point is impressive. But on the other hand, losing it to the Islanders is almost equally unimpressive. We’re nearly back to zero, but I give credit where it’s do, even if Dr. Seuss claims credit for the headline of this post. Screw Dr. Seuss. I bet his mustache sucks.
