Chris Barnicle finished last at Saturday's trials for the male U.S. Olympic marathon team, but the dude who calls himself the "world's fastest stoner" definitely takes first place in our hearts. Barnicle finished 105th out of 105 marathoners in Los Angeles, so it's safe to say he won't be traveling to Rio de Janeiro for the 2016 games this summer. But, like, whatever, man. The 28-year-old gave the world an awesome story instead. You might be wondering how Barnicle even qualified for the Trials. He was "once a promising young runner, with times of 13:36.02 for 5,000 meters and 28:10.59 for 10,000 meters," according to Runner's World. He even trained with a famous coach in Kenya. But a chronic injury to a muscle in his lower calf squashed his serious running career. He also loves to get high — especially while running. He entered the business of wholesale distribution for medical marijuana dispensaries after his running career fizzled in 2014. Las...

Amir Hussain Lone lost both his arms in an accident when he was just eight years old, but that didn't prevent him from pursuing his dream of playing cricket. Now 26, the cricketer from northern India's Kashmir region is winning fans with his determination and unique technique. In 1997, Lone lost his arms in an accident with a machine at his father's sawmill, which manufactured cricket bats. His father had to sell his mill to pay for the treatment. Despite his troubles, Lone became self-sufficient by selling walnuts to support himself and learning how to perform everyday tasks. He also developed his own techniques to bat, bowl, field and even catch. Lone is currently the captain of Jammu and Kashmir's para-cricket team. He bats by holding his cricket bat between his neck and shoulder and bowls by holding the ball with his toes. Watch him in action in the video below. Have something to add to this story?

Hank the dog is very much alive and the same dog he ever was, not a replacement dog smuggled in under the cover of night and also named Hank to dupe innocent fans of both baseball and dogs. That's all true — if you believe what MLB's Milwaukee Brewers said in a press conference Friday. But: Do you believe what MLB's Milwaukee Brewers said in a press conference Friday? Or ... *Takes bong rip* *Exhales voluminous cloud of smoke* *Coughs three times* Or do you believe the truth is more complicated and still out there, lurking somewhere beneath the surface-level corporate lines the sports industrial complex tries to feed you, man? Let's investigate. First, we must understand Hank's origin story. Hank is a fluffy little white dog who used to be a stray. Then he wandered into the Brewers 2014 spring training, got adopted by the team, became beloved by Milwaukee fans and eventually fulfilled his destiny as the team's unofficial mascot. Now, the question you have to ask...

Year after year, the NFL Draft spawns weird analyses of future football pros — transforming the entire process into something that resembles a cross between a livestock market and a psychology exam. This, however, takes the weirdness cake: The Atlanta Falcons publicly apologized Friday for asking one highly touted prospect during a pre-draft interview if he "likes men." Cornerback Eli Apple is expected to be a first-round pick in April after a standout career at Ohio State. During a recent appearance on Comcast SportsNet, Apple was asked about some of the more bizarre job interview questions he's been faced with. "I've been asked a lot of weird questions. I don't know if I could say on TV," Apple initially replied. Then he told the story and — well, this isn't how job interviews normally start! "The Falcons coach, one of the coaches, was like, 'So do you like men?'" Apple said . "It was like the first thing he asked me. It was...
