Greg Hardy Made A Stripper-Heavy Rap Video While Suspended
Greg Hardy recently returned from a suspension that he earned for allegedly violently abusing his former girlfriend. He’s come back and has basically said all the wrong things, including that he’d return, “guns blazing.” You might recall he allegedly threw his then-girlfriend onto a bed covered in g...
Stop Making Ryan Mallett's Grandmothers Cry
Ryan Mallett sounds like he’s just about the grumpiest Ryan in the world right now. He got pulled from the Texans’ 27-20 loss to Indianapolis and barfing zombie Matt Hasselbeck on Thursday, then visibly sulked up and down the sideline for the rest of the game as Brian Hoyer put in a much better perf...
Remembering The Tour De Trump, Donald Trump's Failed Bike Race
Donald Trump, a talking tube of bronzer, is a man of leisure and failed investments. Right around the end of the 1980s, he expanded with a truly catastrophic series of investments which led him to declare his first of four corporate bankruptcies in 1991. There was Trump Airlines, Trump: The Game, an...
DraftKings Employee With Access To Inside Info Wins $350K At FanDuel
Last week, DraftKings writer Ethan Haskell inadvertently leaked ownership and lineup data pertaining to his employer’s biggest contest—the Millionaire Maker—before the start of all the weekend’s games. Doing so made him at the least appear to be committing, if not straight fraud, something that look...

Ichiro Is On The Mound For The Marlins
Ichiro Suzuki is an ageless wonder who quite possibly has limitless baseball powers he only chooses to dole out sparingly for the art of it. One of those powers is pitching, which he did against the Phillies today. His official line? One inning pitched, one earned run, and two hits. Here’s some evid...
Colts' Senior Citizens' Collective Beats Up On The Jaguars
The last time Matt Hasselbeck started an NFL game, he replaced a hurt Jake Locker in Tennessee in 2012. He wasn’t supposed to see time then, either, already in the “fossilized mentor” stage of his career, which he now occupies in Indianapolis with Andrew Luck. He’s well past his due date, I’m saying...
Rays Ruin Mark Buehrle's Last Game With First Grand Slam Of The Season
The Rays haven’t had a great season. They’ll finish with a losing record, even after they most likely beat the Blue Jays today. Remarkably, Tampa Bay went the first 161 games never hitting a grand slam, despite 142 plate appearances with the bases loaded. That changed today when Joey Butler went dee...
Rodgers Out
Liverpool FC announced this afternoon that manager Brendan Rodgers, who has seemingly been on the hot seat for the better part of two years, has been fired. Here’s how they, rather Britishly, phrased it....
José Mourinho's Self-Regard Grows In Inverse Proportion To Chelsea's Record
Hey remember when David Moyes coached United for a year, everyone agreed it was an unmitigated disaster, and it became the standard by which to measure all EPL meltdowns? José Mourinho, the little tyrant man who will probably get fired from the USMNT someday, and Chelsea have started this season thr...

Rougned Odor Lays Into Johnny Giavotella With A Gruesome Slide
In the fifth inning of today’s game against the Angels, Rougned Odor tried to beat out a David Freese throw to second base, but rather slid into the lower leg of Angels’ second baseman Johnny Giavotella. Odor reached third safely on the throwing error, but not after this despicable act of anti-fibul...
Texas Player Tweets About Transferring During Halftime Of Blowout
TCU is currently sleepwalking through the second half of a seismic blowout over Texas in Fort Worth. Texas, despite almost scoring an upset against Oklahoma State last weekend, is at a true low point. It’s not entirely (or even mostly) coach Charlie Strong’s fault, but he is feeling the heat after a...
Massive Brawl Breaks Out At High School Football Game In Texas
A huge melee broke out at last night’s game between conference rivals Westfield and Spring, in Spring, Tx. Coaches and officials tried to calm the teams down, but both benches quickly emptied and the fighting escalated to the degree that local law enforcement on hand had to come and quell the fighti...
Sergio Agüero Goes Supernova, Scores 5 Goals in 20 Minutes
Manchester City were losing today’s match to Newcastle 1-0 for most of the first half until Sergio Agüero went all Robert Lewandowski and rung up five quick goals to kill the game dead in a matter of minutes. Incredibly, he did the Whole Shit with a mere nine touches. It was sudden and violent and N...
Ex-NFL Star Irving Fryar Sentenced to Five Years In Prison For Mortgage Fraud
Irving Fryar, the first overall pick in the 1984 NFL Draft, was sentenced to five years in prison in a New Jersey courtroom yesterday for a mortgage scam he ran about five years ago. Fryar’s mother Allene McGhee, 74, was also sentenced to three years’ probation....
Peter Sagan Wins Cycling World Championships With Late Solo Attack
Peter Sagan’s 2015 season has been a masterclass of near misses, impressive second places, and unfulfilled expectations. Sure, he won the points jersey at the Tour de France for the fourth year running, but his five runner-up placings overshadowed his versatility. Back in the Spring, when he failed ...
Jonathan Papelbon And Bryce Harper Brawl In Nationals Dugout
The Nationals are really deteriorating as their season comes to an end. They somehow have a winning record, but the dugout has gotten downright toxic. Just this week, Papelbon plunked Manny Machado then Bryce Harper called him out for it. Today, tensions boiled over and the two got into a fight in t...
