3 days ago | barstoolsports.com | John Rich

Welcome back to a very special 4/20 Easter episode of Dumping Them Out. To celebrate, here's an impromptu speed ranking of celebrities, athletes and world leaders who are celebrating birthday's today. Both humously, and post. 1. Don Mattingly- I was surprised to learn Don Mattingly didn't make the Hall of Fame, despite winning MVP in 1998. Then I wondered to myself, "How many MLB MVP's didn't make the Hall of Fame? So I looked it up. Turns out like half of them haven't made it.

WrestleMania 41 Night 1 is in the books, and the triple threat main event between Seth Rollins, Roman Reigns, and CM Punk was one for the ages. I can't recall another three-way-dance in wrestling where all of the competitors were so beloved and had the crowd split like they were last night, and the match definitely lived up to the hype becoming an instant classic. From the video packages.... ....to the huge WrestleMania entrances.... ....to the insane spots and reversals they came up with....
Comic Book Movies Are So Back This Summer

4 days ago | barstoolsports.com | Robbie Fox

I'm currently in Las Vegas with 2K for WrestleMania 41, so apologies on the delay blogging these recent trailers - but OOOOOOOOOH BABY I think we might be back! I know the reputation of comic book movies has taken a hit in recent years, but with 'Thunderbolts' on the horizon (which is getting amazing buzz from test screenings) followed by James Gunn's 'Superman' and the introduction of the MCU's 'Fantastic Four' this Summer - AND THEN a Spider-Man sequel sandwiched by a couple Avengers...
Is it "Insane" That Ashton Jeanty (5-foot-8, 211-pounds) Can Dunk a Basketball? + Deep Dive Into NFL Players Dunking

I've noticed that I'm very prone to being swayed by headlines. If something is presented to me in a way that tells me I should be impressed, my dumb brain will eat it right up. As soon as I read stupid ass Dov Kleiman's tweet, I thought to myself.

Team USA Women's Hockey Player Appears to Drop Cell Phone on Ice Mid-Shift, Phone Shatters to Pieces

That's just like a woman, innit? Can't even survive a bloody period without their god damn phone. Would hate to catch yourself tied up in front of the net screening the goalie (i.e. the perfect selfie opportunity), and not have your phone on you to capture the moment for mems. Not at the Women's Worlds. Maybe if women's hockey got the coverage it deserved, then the players wouldn't be forced to take matters of photography into their own hands.

Contrary to the reputation of where I work, I really do try to avoid blogging completely unsubstantiated rumors. I mean, I did do it yesterday with something I literally heard over the phone. But that blog was more about the idea of the rumor than a report on the rumor itself.

Blue Origin Crew Member Gayle King Is FED UP With People Dismissing Her Heroic 11-Minute Trip To Space As "Just A Ride"

1 week ago | barstoolsports.com | John Rich

The easy take to have when you watch the all-female flight crew consisting of astronauts Katy Perry, Gayle King, and Lauren Sanchez, is to mock them for cosplaying as real-life NASA-level space travelers. That's been the general consensus ever since they returned to Earth and were heralded (in some circles) as heroes. As pioneers of... something. Pioneers of female space travel, I suppose.
