Bills Fan Submits His Audition For WWE

Clay Matthews Kept Picking On Colin Kaepernick
The photo above was taken during yesterday’s Packers-49ers game, right after Packers linebacker Clay Matthews sacked 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick in the third quarter. That’s Matthews stealing Kaepernick’s signature bicep-kiss celebration, which is a pretty good way to troll a quarterback afte...

Kevin Durant Says Stephen A. Smith Is A Big Fat Liar
Stephen A. Smith is no stranger to saying wild shit on TV, but it’s always more fun when he tries to add some legitimacy to his takes with his insider credentials. He did this on Tuesday when relaying what “sources” had told him about Kevin Durant’s free-agency plans. Today, Durant called bullshit o...
Steve Smith Will Beef With You Over Any Old Thing
Steve Smith had to leave last night’s game against the Steelers after taking a hit to the back from Steelers linebacker Lawrence Timmons. Smith was angry about getting hurt, but it wasn’t Timmons’s shot that had him riled up, it was an earlier tackle made by former teammate Mike Mitchell....

Max Scherzer Pretends To Choke Bryce Harper
The Washington Nationals, the saddest and most dysfunctional team in the league, are somehow still playing baseball games. I kind of assumed that everyone had already packed up their shit and gone home for the winter, but nope! They’re still out there, pitchin’ and hittin’ and catchin’. At least Max...
Mikhail Prokhorov Hijacks Nets Practice, Demonstrates Insane Dribbling Workouts
Nets owner and crazy Russian billionaire Mikhail Prokhorov stopped by his team’s practice session today. Was he there to check in on how the guys are feeling? To offer some encouragement ahead of the new season? Hell no, man, he was there to teach those young bucks some important hoop skills....
The Washington Nationals Certainly Seem To Hate Matt Williams
The Washington Post’s Barry Svrluga has a deep, perfectly-timed dive into the Washington National’s disaster of a season.

Rangers Mascot Uses Fake Spider To Scare The Shit Out Of A Fan

A U.S. Appeals Court Just Did The NCAA A Big Favor
The US Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals has upheld a lower court’s decision in Ed O’Bannon v. NCAA, which ruled that the NCAA’s larger amateurism rules are in violation of anti-trust laws. The appeals court also, though, vacated a key portion of the lower court’s ruling, and that makes it hard to coun...

Aaron Rodgers Moving Around Is Its Own Kind Of Highlight
Watching Aaron Rodgers play quarterback is the most satisfying experience that the NFL currently has to offer, so we’re gonna go ahead and keep throwing confetti on him on a regular basis. We’ve been over his arm strength and ridiculous accuracy, but last night’s performance was all about that other...

The Chiefs Finally Put An End To Football's Silliest Streak
I can appreciate a good sports streak as much as anyone, but the dumb ones are always more fun than the actually impressive ones. Which is why last night’s Chiefs-Packers game was, despite Aaron Rodgers’s continued brilliance, kind of a bummer. The Chiefs, for the first time in 18 regular-season gam...
