Meet “CC,” one of the most well-spoken 18-month-olds on planet earth and quite possibly the future owner of the New York Yankees.

She’s already on the fast track to having her own booth in Yankee Stadium, considering she’s barely a toddler and has the brain power to recite almost every New York Yankees great to don the pinstripes in the franchise’s long history (via SportsGrid). 

Just listen to her go. All she needs is a first-name prompt or a jersey number and she’s off to the races, rattling off Gehrig, Mantle, DiMaggio, Berra... 

Some of the pronunciations are a little muddled, but her overall clarity in speech is insane (she pronounces Phil Rizzuto’s last name like she’s been waiting all 18 months of her life to say it).

“Never in a million years. Not even if he’s released! Not even if there’s a fire!” 

That’s the basic stance that has been adopted by EvenIfHesReleased.com, a website put together by a coalition of Jacksonville Jaguars fans looking to keep Tim Tebow as far away from their team’s roster as humanly possibly (via ESPN). 

The website was created by Bold City Brigade, a self-described new-age booster club for the Jaguars, who designed the site as a response to an Orlando lawyer’s decision to lobby team president Shad Khan to sign Tebow. 

Bold City wants the team’s new general manager, David Caldwell, to stick to his guns and not bring the most dramatic of backup quarterbacks to their town.

When crowd reactions go wrong.

A cat fight of ocular proportions was brewing in the stands during Game 4 of the Eastern Conference quarterfinals between the Toronto Maple Leafs and the Boston Bruins. Movie star Elisha Cuthbert and James Reimer’s wife, April, were not happy with how the game was going, and the camera caught the two throwing death stares after Boston scored a game-winning goal (via Yahoo! Sports).

Why so serious? Because they blamed each other’s husbands for the loss—or so it would appear. Reimer gave up the game-winning goal in overtime to Boston’s David Krejci, but only after a terrible, terrible offensive mistake by Dion Phaneuf—Cuthbert’s fiancé

After the goal was scored producers flipped the live camera feed around the stadium for reactions and caught the subtly catty exchange between the two women. Reimer turned to Cuthbert with a “What in the sweet hell was your husband doing?” look on her face, to which the movie actress responded with her own “Don’t even start with me” eye flick.

Any Tampa Bay Rays fans who might continue to miss James Shields can now buy his Clearwater, Fla. house, at one hell of a deal. 

Busted Coverage spotted one famous abode, at least famous as far as starter homes are concerned. The website happened upon a report over at WTSP, a station that recently had one of its reporters walk the semi-deserted grounds of Case de Shields. 

For more, we head over to Realtor.com, which has a breakdown of a house that features a man cave as well as a nifty pool. 

Not quite sure why Busted Coverage considers this a beginner home, because I could kick my feet up in this house from now until the end of days.

C.J. Wilson is managing to find the bright side of a lackluster season. The biggest and best news is that he is reportedly engaged to his very wonderful and very beautiful girlfriend, Lisalla Montenegro. 

On Wednesday, Sports Illustrated's Jimmy Traina dropped the following tweet that serves as an impetus for the round of applause and virtual cheers we send the Angels pitcher. 

The first handle is to Wilson, a 32-year-old pitcher who is having a solid season when you consider the rest of his team is floundering amid the AL West at the moment. 

The other Twitter handle belongs to the lovely Ms. Montenegro who you can also follow on Instagram. It's there that we get a nice look at the huge rock that now sits atop her finger.

The Chicago Bulls are moving along nicely in the NBA playoffs, which has lead to moments that cause those watching from home to stop and wonder, wait, who's that?

In a moment that has hardly been rare, Joakim Noah went to the stands to greet one special somebody who was rooting louder than most—his sister Yelena. 

USA Today had its interest good and piqued by the following GIF from CJ Fogler

The young lady happens to be a model. USA Today is hardly the only one caught curious about this particular fan because Yelena has once again caused a stir around the nation.

Go home, Tiger Woods. You're drunk. 

Deadspin happened on a couple of reports that led sports fans to one of two very different conclusions: Woods was either very drunk while squiring Lindsey Vonn at the Met Gala this week, or he is very awkward. 

We present for you evidence that really should help aid in your determination. The report comes courtesy of the good people over at Us Weekly while all images are thanks to The Superficial

As for images, let's begin with my favorite:

Apparently, Iman Shumpert will wear whatever the hell he wants. 

The New York Knicks, who were dealt a disappointing blow in Game 1 against the Pacers, bounced back to beat Indiana, 105-79, in Game 2 of the Eastern Conference semifinals. 

I guess you could say things were fairly positive behind the scenes with the Knicks, so we'd like to think just about everyone involved was completely fine with Shumpert's shoes. 

Here is a tweet from Turner Sports' Rachel Nichols that shows Shumpert's amazing technicolor kicks.

It was the best of times. It was the worst of times. It was the age of sick, put-back dunks. It was the epoch of sitting on the bench in a suit and tie while all of America shouts at the TV, "Really, you can't play like 20 minutes a game?"

Update: Wednesday, May 8, 4:00 p.m. ET

Iman Shumpert has come to the aid of the man with a similar past injury. ZagsBlog quotes the Knicks star who states the following while on The Michael Kay Show: "Derrick Rose has something totally different on his shoulders. If he feels like he can’t carry the load then he has to make that decision on his own."

Shump: one helluva guy.

Don’t you hate it when you’re fighting a guy and you go for a corkscrew moonsault, only to dash your face on the ground?

So does this guy—a wrestler who attempted the dangerous maneuver and ended up landing face-first on the hard, gym floor (via Deadspin).

Now, I’m no professional, but I’m fairly certain this wasn’t the way this move (also known as "The Starship Pain") is supposed to turn out. This guy appears to go for the full rotation, but something tells me he’s supposed to be landing inside the ring as opposed to the un-cushioned floor of whatever high school gym this fight appears to be taking place in.

With that being said, a high degree of skill comes with these risky maneuvers, and you have to give the kid credit for going for it.
