Mad Dash: Baltimore Ravens RB spotted on TV by excited son

For some, one of the worst parts of being a parent is a long trip away from the family, especially if it's for work. Baltimore Ravens running back Justin Forsett knows the feeling, but was lifted when his wife sent him a video of his son, Judah, spotting his old man playing football on TV. It's tough to beat a reaction like this.

Ever wonder who would win in a race between an NHL star and an Olympic gold medal speedskater? Neither have we. Regardless, Colorado Avalanche phenom Nathan MacKinnon took on Charles Hamelin and settled the score. And now that we know who would win a short sprint, who do you think would win a full lap around the ice?

Another fairly pointless – but entertaining – side activity of a young star in his sport was revealed to us thanks to a Vine posted by Kyrie Irving, who apparently enjoys throwing down during full living room Nerf pick up games. It's every kid's (and let's be honest, a few adults') rainy day dream come true.
