Disgraced San Diego Padres GM A.J. Preller Certainly Seems Like An Idiot
MLB announced that Padres general manager A.J. Preller has been suspended without pay for 30 days following the league’s investigation into his team’s shady handling of player medical data.

Dinosaurs Suck Now

Kid Rock is still out there doing Kid Rock things, like putting on concerts for people who desperately want to be tricked into thinking they are listening to Lynyrd Skynard or Bob Seger.

Adrian Beltre Is Still Slapping Dingers From One Knee
Adrian Beltre is one of the most entertaining baseball players any of us will ever have the pleasure of watching. He’s done many great things on the field that I will remember fondly, but falling to one knee as he hits the goddamn hell out of a baseball will certainly go down as his signature move. ...

Yasiel Puig Tosses Ball To Fan, Knocks Her Tooth Out
When it comes to hazards you need to look out for at a baseball game, a player tossing you a souvenir ball ranks several dozen places behind things like “watch out for foul balls” and “try not to get puked on.” And yet, one Dodgers fan managed to get herself extremely fucked up during what should ha...

Big Shock: RGIII Is All Fucked Up Again
Robert Griffin III is essentially a human Jenga tower, and so anytime he gets on the field the question to ask is not “Hey, is RGIII gonna be good again?” but rather “So, how long is this going to last?” If yesterday’s season opener against the Eagles is any indication, the answer is “Not long!”...
