Dell Loy Hansen Selling Teams, Hopefully Door Hits Him in the Ass
If MLS and NWSL have a lot of things to catch up on to be considered a “major league,” one thing we can cross off the list is the speed at which they eject a shithead racist owner from their ranks....
Novak Djokovic Forming His Own Club — 'No Girls Allowed'
Novak Djokovic certainly can’t be accused of just going along with the crowd, even if his own road takes him to some truly stupefying and weird places. It appears Nole is once again following his own beat, as he, along with Canadian tennis player Vasek Pospisil, are forming their own men’s tennis pl...
Five Years Later, Sasha Banks vs. Bayley is Still the Gold Standard
It’s SummerSlam weekend in the WWE, essentially serving as its calendar’s counterpoint to Wrestlemania. It’s almost at the opposite end of the year, and it’s seen as the show and weekend for the “real fans,” whereas ’Mania is seen as for the masses. Included in this weekend’s festivities is NXT’s 30...
Gross, Stupid & Sexist: Latest Bile Proves Time to Ice Milbury From NHL Was Ages Ago (UPDATED)
The NHL Bubble continued, with two more teams biting the dust in the form of the Washington Capitals and Calgary Flames. But that’s not the main story emerging from it, because this is hockey with hockey people and if you keep hockey people on TV long enough, they’ll vomit up some kind of vile, fu...
The Mets Are Diseased - No, For Real This Time
While they’ve pretty much been a plague their entire existence, never have the New York Mets come across being an actual incubus themselves. At least of an actual virus. ...

It’s Been a Bad Day For Curt Schilling and It’s Not Even Noon
Maybe every day is a bad day for Curt Schilling. More accurately, every day where Curt Schilling is lurking somewhere is a bad day for the rest of us, or at least has a high chance of becoming one. Because that means there’s a threat that Schilling will dive headlong in front of a camera, or onto so...

The Padres Slam Rangers Again and It is Glorious
This might just become a daily Padres appreciation moment. It’s not our fault. Sometimes what will be will be and you can’t run from what has to be. The Padres decided it would be fun to hit a grand slam off the Rangers for a third straight game, but to turn it from just a pint of ice cream into a s...
Fernando Tatis is Defecating on Baseball’s ‘Unwritten Rules’ and it’s Spectacular
The custom of baseball, after some manager bitches about unwritten rules that he very well may have made up, is that everyone wants the whole conflict to go away as quickly as possible. You’ll hear some pregame quotes about going overboard or respecting the opponent or some other boilerplate horsesh...
Manny Machado Covers Most of the Earth Now
When scrolling through Twitter on an idle afternoon, you might come across a headline like, “Manny Machado makes great running catch in right.” And you probably don’t think much of it.

Luka Dončić Learns About the Playoffs the Hard Way
The NBA finally got past the opening act, and now that everybody got a beer, went to the bathroom one last time, and the house-lights have gone down, the real show has begun. The actual playoffs started yesterday, and they were a small lesson in glorious defeat. That’s kind of what the playoffs are,...
Barcelona Respond to Ultimate Humiliation with Ultimate Confusion
Perhaps there’s no coming back from getting utterly shamed 8-2 in a Champions League quarterfinal. Even if this is something of a makeshift Champions League tournament, 8-2 is 8-2. Barcelona have their own “Belo Horizonte” now, and cleaning up after it is going to be a massive undertaking....
WWE’s Sonya Deville Targeted for Kidnapping as World Continues to Be Awful
In yet another incident demonstrating the hellscape the world has become, and especially for female athletes/performers/celebrities, WWE star Sonya Deville was forced to flee her house to escape a man attempting to take her hostage who had stalked her for months online....
We Can Usually Count on Ohio State to Produce Top-Tier Oblivious Athletes
If you ever need to find someone who doesn’t get it, you can generally consult Ohio State to come up with a candidate for you.

Pep Guardiola Overthought It Again and City Are Out on Their Ass
We’ve all had to deal with a lot of our rites of spring being moved to another location on the calendar or lost to the pandemic altogether. Opening Day, Memorial Day blockbuster movies, Derby parties, all of these and more were lost or moved to an unfamiliar spot in life’s routine. Oh, and Pep Guard...
It's Gone With the Wins for the Suns, Who are All of Us Right Now
There’s probably a harsh life lesson in going unbeaten in a rearranged season and becoming one of the biggest stories in the NBA and still not even making the play-in round. This is the Phoenix Suns’ lot in life at the moment. Sometimes you can do everything perfectly and it still won’t matter and o...
NCAA Decides It’s Not Safe To Play Sports In The Fall, But Cash-Cow Football is Somehow Immune
In the latest falling domino, the NCAA this afternoon announced it would not be having fall championships in any sport … that’s not football.
