I Still Love You, England<em></em>
When I adopted England as my team for this America-free World Cup, I figured they would fuck me over by bowing out early, maybe underwhelming in the group stages. Instead, they REALLY fucked me over by making a run, getting my hopes up, and then collapsing against Croatia when they had more than a f...
Wednesday Night Blowouts Produce A Bonanza Of Position Players Taking The Mound
These are truly the dog days of summer. Baseball has slipped into that surreal midseason phase where absolutely nothing seems to matter at any given moment, and the reason to watch is to doze off to the hypnotic lull of half innings breezing by uneventfully. We have hit the part of the year where ev...
David Beckham Is Still Trying To Build That MLS Stadium In Miami, This Time On A Toxic Waste Site
It’s been more than a year since we last checked in on David Beckham’s futile attempts to build a Major League Soccer stadium in Miami, to host an expansion MLS side.

Manny Machado Is Smashing Dongs Against The Yankees While He Still Has The Chance
Orioles shortstop Manny Machado is very likely going to be out of Baltimore by the end of the month, and if you believe the whispers, the Yankees are one of the teams that badly want to trade for him. For now, though, as the Yanks battle the Orioles at Camden, Machado remains an enemy of all that is...
Riyad Mahrez Is Now Just Another Dude Scrapping For Attention At Manchester City
The Premier League, as it often does, got a little more top heavy today, after a successful-yet-pragmatic club sold its most valuable player to an elite team that didn’t really need him. Riyad Mahrez—Leicester City’s more beautiful, playmaking compliment to their relentless striker Jamie Vardy—has l...

Sweet Baby Jesus, Cristiano Ronaldo Really Will Leave Real Madrid For Juventus
What at first felt like the same sort of hyped-up salary negotiation process between Real Madrid and Cristiano Ronaldo we see almost every summer has just gotten real as hell. Real Madrid have now confirmed that, at Ronaldo’s request, they have agreed to transfer him to Juventus....
Man, That's Not How It Works
One of the coolest and rarest things you can experience as a baseball fan is having a foul ball or home run land right in your beer.

Yes, The Yankees Are In On Manny Machado
The Yankees and Orioles split a doubleheader in Baltimore on Monday, but the games were almost a sideshow—after all, we know what’s going to happen in the standings: one team is bound for the playoffs and one team the cellar.

Baseball Won't Stop Serving Us Its Gross Fake Beef
We need to get some health inspectors into MLB, because the league just cannot stop serving up all this fake beef. More often than usual this season, it seems like teams are looking for the smallest of faux pas just to have an excuse to rush onto the field and perform some masculinity....

D-Backs Catcher Jeff Mathis Pitches, Serves Up A Juicy Homer, Loses
With a depleted bullpen in Sunday’s 16-inning showdown against the Padres, the Diamondbacks turned to backup catcher Jeff Mathis to pitch in a tie game.

The Manny Machado Sweepstakes Is Raging
Manny Machado turned 26 on Friday; he is in the prime of his career, and he is having the best season of his life. The Baltimore Orioles have the worst record in baseball, and not much hope of being better any time soon. It seems certain that by the end of this month—maybe even by the end of this we...
