I think you are looking for fixed background scrolling. Take a look at this demo: http://tympanus.net/codrops/2013/05/02/fixed-background-scrolling-layout/

This is actually fairly simple. If I correctly understand what you're refering to. What you're looking at is stacked with a no repeat background css property. Even though it looks like some fixed scrolling, it's nothing fancy. Following is one of those from your example :
<div class="game-section tearaway g10 clearfix">
<img class="number ten" src="http://cdn0.sbnation.com/polygon/2013-goty/10.png"><div class="game-section-text">
<h2>Tearaway</h2>

</div>
</div>
For instance here there's the following css property assigned to the class tearaway
tearaway {
background: url(http://cdn0.sbnation.com/polygon/2013-goty/tearaway.jpg) center no-repeat;
}
