Well, That's Probably It For Eric Bledsoe In Phoenix
Yesterday, Suns guard Eric Bledsoe sent one of the best athlete tweets in history:...
Everton Fire Ronald Koeman, Who Really Fucked This Up
There are a few easy ways to define the worst team in the Premier League. One of them is to find the team with the least amount of talent. Another is to find the team most likely to get relegated. Everton, despite being 18th in the table after yesterday’s 5-2 loss to Arsenal, don’t (yet) fit either ...
Khalil Mack May Very Well Be Too Strong
Chiefs tackle Eric Fisher is 6-foot-7 and weighs 315 pounds. Raiders linebacker Khalil Mack is also quite large, coming in at 6-foot-3 and 250 pounds, but not so large, one might think, as to be able to turn a man of Fisher’s size into a Jenga tower in pads. And yet, we can all see the GIF at the to...
Marshawn Lynch Watched Game From The Stands After Ejection, Took The Train Home
After Marshawn Lynch was ejected from last night’s game against the Chiefs for making contact with an official, there were reports that he had immediately changed into street clothes in the locker room and left the stadium. That turned out to not be quite true; Lynch did indeed leave the locker room...
Of Course Patrick Beverley Shut Down Lonzo Ball
In perhaps the most predictable turn of events of the NBA’s early season, Clippers point guard Patrick Beverley held Lakers rookie sensation Lonzo Ball to three points on 1-of-6 shooting. Also predictably, Beverley was pleased with his handiwork after the game, according to ESPN’s Marc Spears:...
Jeremy Lin Will Miss The Entire Season
Though not nearly as gruesome, the knee injury suffered by Jeremy Lin last night was just as stomach-churning as the leg break that ended Gordon Hayward’s season on Tuesday night. The gut punch didn’t come from any horrifically twisted limb, but from Lin’s anguished reaction....
Let It Be The Season Of Giannis
Kevin Durant? Corny in ways we are only beginning to understand. Kawhi Leonard? Boring. LeBron James? A bald dad. James Harden? Beards are out. Russell Westbrook? Okay, he’s still pretty cool, but what I am getting at here is this: we are headed, at this very moment, directly into the Year of Gianni...
Andrew Luck, Who Was Briefly Throwing, Is No Longer Throwing
Perhaps you spend all day on Twitter or are a close follower of Indianapolis Colts beat writers. If that is the case, you may have recently seen some footage of injured star quarterback Andrew Luck actually throwing a football. The footage was not exactly inspiring, but it was at least evidence that...
The Thunder Gave Kevin Durant's Old Number To An Undrafted Rookie
P.J. Dozier, an undrafted rookie who signed with the Oklahoma City Thunder yesterday and will be wearing the No. 35 jersey for as long as he is with the team, told reporters that his choice in jersey number had nothing to do with Kevin Durant, who wore No. 35 for nine years in Oklahoma City before l...
The Cubs Just Can't Hit
The Chicago Cubs are down 3-0 in the NLCS, and there’s really no use in thinking too hard about why that is. Joe Maddon has made mistakes, and the bullpen has been pretty bad, but there is a simpler explanation for why the Cubs are one loss away from playoff elimination: They can’t hit the dang ball...
Bad Quarterback Performance Of The Week: The Browns Scrape Up Kevin Hogan

Mike McCarthy Snaps At Reporter For Asking About Colin Kaepernick
The Packers’ quarterback situation is suddenly very dire. Aaron Rodgers is likely out for the season with a broken collarbone, and the team now has to start Brett Hundley, a former fifth-round pick with 44 career NFL pass attempts. Perhaps even more worrying is the fact that behind Hundley is Joe Ca...
LeBron James Still Thinks About Dan Gilbert's Insane Letter
GQ has a big LeBron James feature out today, and in it the Cavs superstar is asked about the crazy letter Cavs owner Dan Gilbert wrote after James left Cleveland for Miami in 2010. Specifically, he’s asked if he believes Gilbert’s letter had racial overtones:...
Barstool Sports Founder Asks If Harvey Weinstein Should Be Allowed To Exchange Sex For Work
Barstool Sports founder Dave Portnoy, a guy who once took great pleasure in calling women “cunts,” posed a question to one of his female subordinates live on the radio. The question was: Actually, should Harvey Weinstein be allowed to demand sex from actresses in exchange for roles in movies? Get re...
Apparently DeShone Kizer Just Needed One Week Off
When Browns head coach Hue Jackson announced that he was benching rookie quarterback DeShone Kizer last week, it seemed like he had a decent plan in mind. The Browns, already 0-5 at that point, had three more games against the Texans, Titans, and Vikings before their bye week. Here was a chance for ...
John Lackey Should Be In Jail<em></em>
Before John Lackey gave up a walk-off three-run homer to Justin Turner in Game 2 of the NLCS, he treated viewers of the game to a special version of baseball hell....
Luke Kuechly Is In Concussion Protocol Again
Panthers linebacker Luke Kuechly, who has missed parts of each of the last two seasons after suffering concussions, left last night’s game against the Eagles in the second quarter. The hit that knocked Kuechly out of the game looked like it may have hurt his shoulder, but afterwards it was revealed ...
Max Scherzer Did His Job And It Didn't Matter
If you want to get a feel for just how cruel the game of baseball was to Max Scherzer last night, watch a little bit of his postgame interview, in which he stood shell-shocked in front of his locker and tried to explain how a fifth inning that started with two quick outs ended with four runs crossin...
Panthers Fan Sucker-Punches Old Man
Here is an Instagram video from last night’s game between the Eagles and Panthers in Charlotte, in which a raging bro in a Cam Newton jersey punches an old man in the face:...
Aaron Judge Looks Lost
The Yankees managed to erase a 2-0 series deficit and advance to the ALCS, which is great news for Yankees fans and even better news for Aaron Judge, who has a lot less attention on him today than he would if the Yankees had fallen last night....
