What we know about Bishop Sycamore, the fake football team on ESPN
ESPN got catfished by a fake high school in Ohio. That sounds like the plot to an Adam Sandler movie, but it happened in real life. On Sunday, ESPN aired a Canton, Ohio, matchup between IMG Academy, one of the nation’s top high school football programs, and Bishop Sycamore. It was a seemingly normal...

Who Is The Most Adam Sandler Director?

Adam Sandler's Tribute To David Letterman Was Actually Funny

The Stupid, Stupid, Unforgettable Madness Of Adam Sandler. <em>That's My Boy</em>, Reviewed.
There are few things in modern cinema as reliable as an Adam Sandler movie. Since 1992, he's appeared in at least one film every year except for 1997, and just about all of them have been terrible. And yet there's something oddly comforting and exciting about the arrival of a new Sandler offering. I...

Whose Post-<i>SNL</i> Film Career Is Andy Samberg Most Likely To Have?
