It’s all Taylor Swift’s faultFirst off, I need to tell everyone that my bosses definitely aren’t holding a taser to my neck to make sure we mention Taylor Swift the requisite number of times per day (c’mon, you know who we work for. The taser to my neck is our Christmas bonus). I write this of my own volition. ...

Dallas Stars’ fans made themselves look like imbecilesHow bad did the Stars’ fan base need to mess up to be the most despicable thing that happened on Tuesday night inside American Airlines Center? Jamie Benn’s cross-check to the face of a downed, prone Mark Stone was horrific, and likely set the final dominoes in motion for Dallas being eliminated in ...

Dallas Stars captain Jamie Benn does everything you’re not supposed toOther than the New York Yankees for some reason, no sport really gives a flying fuck about having a captain.
