Inspired by the people behind the ever-popular
Failblog and inspired in large part by the
LOLcats phenomena,
Up Next In Sports is a marriage of wit, captions, and perfectly timed photographs or mishaps captured on film.

Updated frequently, the site gives users the chance to supply both awkward and humorous sports-related pictures or create captions to images found elsewhere. Some of my personal favorites are the ones that resemble those framed one-word inspirational posters. Take the one pictured to the right, for example. The picture, of Argentinian tennis star, Juan Martín del Potro, tapping his hand to his racket cleverly states "
High Fives: Not everyone has friends."
Being a native Minnesotan I also loved the self-loathing sentiment behind the sadly true photograph of Brett Favre, grinning ear to ear, holding up his new Minnesota Vikings jersey with the caption reading "
There is snow in Hell." If it doesn't snow in the Land of 10,000 Lakes this year, we'll know what happened...
