Mad Dash: Jason Dufner sheds weight, looks like new man

Jason Dufner has a few claims to fame in his young professional golf career. He's won the PGA Championship, notching a major in his belt, and he's become his own internet meme with "Dufnering." But he may have a third accomplishment to add to the list: Transforming his body. Thanks to a gluten-free diet and lots of exercise in the offseason, Dufner has dropped 20 pounds and is looking very trim. We're guessing the classic version of Dufnering loses its charm without his old physique, but maybe dropping 20 pounds over the winter can become the new Dufnering.

We'll never be able to get enough of Matt Foley, motivational speaker. Chris Farley's most famous Saturday Night Live character never made a spinoff movie, but thanks to the Wisconsin Badgers, we're getting one more glimpse of the man in his element. The Badgers tweeted out an old video of Farley as Foley, explaining why everyone should come to play for Wisconsin. Farley was a Madison native, so it's not a huge surprise he was on board with the Badgers, despite going to Marquette himself. In any case, it was just awesome to see him doing his thing one more time.
