Malcolm Butler’s Interception Celebration Vs. Steelers Was A Sight To Behold
by Zack Cox on Sun, Oct 23, 2016 at 4:57PM 2,732 Share this: Malcolm Butler celebrated his first interception of the season with one of the more … um, interesting celebrations we’ve seen this year. After stepping in front of Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Antonio Brown to pick off a Landry Jones pass Sunday, the New England Patriots cornerback launched into a dance that looked like a cross between Brown’s hip-thrust celebration and a Wacky Waving Inflatable Arm Flailing Tube Man. Though this was Butler’s first interception, he entered Sunday with eight pass breakups in six games — tied for second in the NFL. Thumbnail photo via Mark J.

European Ryder Cup Team Challenges Heckler To Make Putt; He Answers In Big Way
Share this: Is it too late to add Dave Johnson to Team USA’s Ryder Cup squad? There’s no chance you know who Dave Johnson is — well, you might know a Dave Johnson, but not this guy — but he should be the next American hero. Johnson stole the show at the Ryder Cup on Thursday, one day before the actual international golf tournament got under way. The (presumably) American golf fan was taking in a practice round at Hazeltine National Golf Club where the Europeans were putting on one of the greens. Apparently Johnson was heckling the Euros (specifically Rory McIlroy, according to tweets), and the Europeans didn’t take too kindly to his jeers. So, they challenged Johnson to make the putt.

NFL Network Reveals Top 10 Patriots Of All Time; Tom Brady Headlines List
Share this: It’s not easy to whittle all the New England Patriots greats into a top 10, but the NFL Network gave it a crack Friday night in “Top 10: New England Patriots.” And while it’s hard to argue with most of the picks, there were some interesting choices. Now, one thing you can’t argue with is Tom Brady as the No. 1 Patriot of all time. Brady already arguably is the greatest quarterback in NFL history, so he was a lock at the top of this list. While many of the selections were from the past two decades, there were a few legends on the list. Pro Football Hall of Famers John Hannah (No. 2), Andre Tippett (No. 4) and Mike Haynes (No. 5) all made the top

An interesting link between soul music and Celtic
Take it away Gil! For those wondering, The Spoiler offices are exactly how you’d imagine - full of men in corduroy, pipe smoke everywhere, Six Music playing on the wireless. All of which leads to an intriguing piece of trivia just announced on the radio - soul man Gil Scott-Heron’s dad, Gil Heron (rather fittingly, minus the “Scott”) used to play for Celtic in the 1950s! The first black player at the club, he earned the dubious nickname, The Black Arrow. We’re massive fans of his little boy, so what better excuse for a little bit of music!
