Joel Embiid Is Feeling Himself
Joel Embiid’s second defensive play in the NBA ended with him wrestling Steven Adams to the floor.

This Is The Worst Indians Fan
When cutting to commercial after the end of the top of the seventh inning, Fox cameras found this Indians fan rocking a headdress and combo blackface and redface and lingered on him for a full ten seconds.

Trump Ally Alex Jones: I'm Not Anti-Semitic, It's Just That The Jews Control Everything

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. He seeks it in many ways: by guzzling Shirley Temples by the syrupy pitcher, by clowning on Andrew Wiggins, or by publicly asking out Rihanna. And we give it to him, maybe a little begrudgingly, because the content is goo...
Kyle Schwarber Paid Off Joe Maddon's Faith

Remember When Donald Trump Got Booed For Butchering "Take Me Out To The Ballgame”?<em></em>
The day: July 9, 2000. The place: Wrigley Field.
