Joel Embiid Says He Learned To Shoot By Watching White People Online
Joel Embiid, who’ll make his NBA debut tonight, wants our attention, so badly.

Andrew Bogut Dunked On, This Time On Twitter <em></em>

Can Donald Trump Grow A Beard? An Investigation
Donald Trump’s sense of self-worth seems to be based entirely on his status as an alpha male. He’s obscenely competitive, feels entitled to women, and is apparently fixated on the size of his dick. One hyper-masculine symbol, however, appears to have eluded Trump his entire life, for Donald Trump ha...

Bobby Bowden Rambled For A Few Minutes At A Trump Rally Tonight

Hindus And Trump Rallied Together In A Xenophobic Fever Dream
Grab a plate of good, oily pav bhaji and watch a well-loved Indian movie star perform for thousands of immigrants.

This Was The Only Good Part Of Tonight's Debate
In a brief battle over exactly how much Donald Trump loves Vladimir Putin (is it just a lot or more than he loves his own children?), Trump offered the most infantile, absolutely incredible retort of his campaign thus far. Specifically, Trump went with the tried and true, “I know you are, but what a...

Kill The "Spin Room"
You know the “spin room”: it’s the place where, at the conclusion of a debate, a horde of reporters and campaign employees/hangers-on gather en masse to chatter cheerfully about the ghastly horrors just witnessed by the rest of America.

Joel Embiid Appears To Actually Be The Truth<em></em>
We rip on the Sixers more or less constantly because of their cynical, anti-fan approach to sports and their former tech-worshipping leader’s insane hubris, but goddamn it, Joel Embiid is actually cool. Please enjoy him dancing a bunch then casually flushing a huge windmill. ...
