When word broke that new Pittsburgh Pirates starter Francisco Liriano broke his arm (and lost $12 million) trying to scare his kids over Christmas, if wasn't really that shocking. Pro athletes have a history of throwing large sums of cash down the toilet by injuring themselves in the stupidest possible ways. Here are some of the all time most bizarre, idiotic and ridiculous sports injuries to ever take place both on, but mostly off, the field.

Peralta had stopped for some sandwiches and ...
Sneaking into the biggest game of the year shouldn't be this easy.
The NFL gave us a pretty fantastic 2012 season, and now we get a post-Super Bowl treat in the form of these awesome graphic illustrations of some of the season's match-ups from Pixar animator Austin Madison. Notice the clever representations of the team mascots in battle, such as the Boondock Saints for New Orleans and some celebrity Bills for Buffalo. You also will see that some teams (the Jets), did not fare as well as others (the Ravens). Well done.

If that sounds as miserable to you as it does to us, then you're going to need something else to keep you busy. This is why we put together "NFL Offseason Shenanigans Bingo," the game that allows you to enjoy what your favorite football players do off the field as much as what they do on the field. Simply mark off a square whenever an NFL player engages in any of the antics mentioned. Based on how most offseasons go, you'll probably have this card entirely marked off within a week. ...
What's the most important play to happen on every yard in the history of the Super Bowl? Well, we tried to answer that with this interactive feature. Hover over each of the footballs below to see what we deem to be the most historic or game-changing play to happen on that yard line. For example, the greatest play to ever happen on the goal line is James Harrison's interception (which he returned 100 yards as the first half of Super Bowl XLIII expired). We used the line of scrimmage as the point of reference for every play unless otherwise noted. So, Scott Norwood's historic game-losing 47-yard field goal miss would appear on the 30-yard line. But Tracy Porter's game-clinching interception ...
