Camera-Gate

Athletes Colliding With Cameramen

Athletes Colliding With Cameramen: LeBron James ended up getting stitches in his head after falling into a cameraman during Game 4 of the 2015 NBA Finals.

Reggie Wayne and Richard Marshall collided with an NFL Films cameraman in an October 2007 NFL game in Charlotte.

A cameraman grimmaces after a collision with Kentucky forward Nerlens Noel during the second half of an NCAA college basketball game against Florida in Gainesville, Fla., in February 2013.

LaDainian Tomlinson got taken down by an NFL Films cameraman while getting ready to take on the Oakland Raiders in San Diego in October 2007.

New York Giants quarterback Eli Manning had a brush with a cameraman after scoring a touchdown at Wembley Stadium in October 2007.

Seattle guard Luke Ridnour falls into a cameraman after going for a loose ball against the San Antonio Spurs in 2005.

ESPN cameraman Mike Weir is knocked over as Clemson players celebrate a three-run home run by Andy D'Alessio in the eighth inning of the opening game of the 2006 NCAA baseball College World Series in Omaha, Neb.

Los Angeles Clippers forward Blake Griffin hands a video camera back to a cameraman after falling on him during a 2013 game in Los Angeles.

Washington Wizards guard John Wall tries to avoid a camera operator as he chases a loose ball in the first half of an NBA basketball game against the Atlanta Hawks, Sunday, April 12, 2015, in Washington.

Dennis Rodman kicked cameraman Eugene Amos in the groin during a game against the Minnesota Timberwolves in 1997. Amos was carried from the court on a stretcher before being treated at a hospital.

Eddie Jones knocks the glasses off a cameraman during a 1998 game against Chicago.

Brandon Bornes of San Diego State takes out an ESPN cameraman on the sidelines during a 2005 game against UCLA at Qualcom Stadium.

San Francisco Giants starting pitcher Tim Lincecum, right, steps out of the pile of players celebrating his July 2013 no hitter against the San Diego Padres as a television cameraman hits the ground in San Diego.

Goran Dragic of the Phoenix Suns falls onto a cameraman during a December 2014 game against Indiana.

Mark Jackson dances over television cameraman Pat Rondou in Game 1 of the 2000 NBA Finals in Los Angeles.

Philadelphia 76ers' Tony Wroten collides with a cameraman after chasing a loose ball into the seats during a 2014 game.

It would be ignorant to think the LeBron James camera incident would be over quickly, and as we've seen during a bombardment of Camera-Gate news and opinions on Friday, it's far from over. Warriors center Andrew Bogut, the man who committed the foul that led to James falling into the cameras, accused his opponent of flopping into them while other players offered strong opinions on cameramen following the incident. And some fans were reminded of Dennis Rodman's infamous run-in with a cameraman 18 years ago.

LeBron smashing his head into the Camera Man took me down Memory Lane! Dennis Rodman would've kicked him in the Nuts https://t.co/et9Unbfex2

Hairy Situation

Norway managed to tie Germany 1-1 in Women's World Cup action on Thursday despite getting outshot 27-4. Norway's equalizer came on a magnificent free kick strike from Maren Mjelde, a goal that Stephen A. Smith credited to the German ladies not wanting to mess up their hair. He's kidding...right?

Nap Time

The Toronto Blue Jays were in the midst of a troubling slump in early June, having dropped four of five games and fallen seven games under .500 after two sub-par months of baseball. Therefore, they found the perfect team bonding remedy: Nap time. They've won eight in a row since the June 3 pregame nap, averaging over seven runs per game during the winning streak that has vaulted them within three games of the AL East lead.

Holy Crap

Apparently a sport called Extreme Arm Wrestling exists and the no-holds-barred fighting match is pure insanity. XARM, created by UFC founder Art Davie, has existed since 2008 but somehow it remains practically unknown.

Just Stop

Timofey Mozgov was asked unnecessarily long questions during his postgame press conference and, understandably, asked for clarification and provided hilariously brief answers:

Olympic Applicants

Twenty-six sports applied to be in the 2020 Olympics, including Water Skiing, American football and Chess. Also applying for inclusion was Tug of War, and, yes, it's one of the least exhilarating and edge-of-your-seat sports in existence:
