The Ducks Are Finally Facing Reality
Finally, the Anaheim Ducks can stop pretending this season is worth saving, or even capable of being saved. Losers of seven straight and 19 of 21, and new residents of the Western Conference cellar, the Ducks fired head coach Randy Carlyle on Sunday and named as interim coach GM Bob Murray. Why is M...
Zion Williamson Temporarily Activates His Flying Abilities To Bash Three-Point Shot Into Crowd
In Duke’s 81-71 win over Virginia on Saturday, Zion Williamson had once again used his athletic ability to create a jaw-dropping highlight that still can’t fully be explained over 12 hours later.

Jim Irsay Moves Goalposts On "G.O.A.T." Debate In A Way That Conveniently Discounts The Patriots' Accomplishments
Despite the recent success of a New England-based franchise, there are plenty of people who will still argue over which NFL team is the greatest of all time. Is it the Cowboys from the ‘90s, or the Joe Montana-led 49ers of the ‘80s? Are the Patriots better in their current form, or was their team fr...

Adam Gase Is Building A Locker Room Powder Keg With His New Coaching Hires
Adam Gase being brought on to be the head coach of the New York Jets began as an uncreative hire, but has since blossomed into one of the more entertaining storylines of the NFL offseason through his own design.

Jim Gray Gets Weirdly Snippy When Asked About His Friendships With Tom Brady And Oprah
Career access merchant Jim Gray has made his name lobbing softballs to famous people, and he would prefer to have those same softballs tossed in his direction, thank you very much. In a Super Bowl week interview with Boston radio station 98.5 The Sports Hub’s Toucher and Rich, Gray had barely settle...
The NBA's Anti-Tanking Reform For Sure Hasn't Solved Sucking
The NBA recently messed with the odds in the draft lottery in order to discourage teams from tanking, but the real fruits of that move will be revealed over time, and anyway certain teams—looking at you, Phoenix—need no promise of draft lottery gold in order to just profoundly suck and lose all the ...

Nik Stauskas And Wade Baldwin's Wacky Trade Adventure Ends In Indianapolis
When this week began, Nik Stauskas was already playing on his third team in the past two seasons. Like, actually kind of playing: 15.3 minutes per game with the Portland Trail Blazers. Third-year guard Wade Baldwin IV, who was already on his second NBA club, played significantly less. It was not rea...
Maryland's Bruno Fernando Stomped On A Nebraska Dude
Maryland’s Bruno Fernando made an enemy out of every man, woman, and child in Nebraska tonight, as in the second half of the Terrapins’ road game against the Cornhuskers, the brilliant big man finished off a dunk with some Ndamukong Suh action on poor Tanner Borschart. Borschart looked like he may h...
Report: The Patriots Will Soon Be Schiano Men

Nobody Wants The Raiders
Of all the narratives (a word I fully intend to expunge from the language as soon as I am named Secretary of Taste in the Harris administration) that the National Football League has had to combat in the last five years, there has been none quite so surreptitiously corrosive as the story of The NIMB...
Raiders Stiff-Armed By San Francisco In Mark Davis's Desperate Search For A Temporary Home
The saga of Mark Davis looking for a temporary home for his relocating Raiders took another stupid turn this week, after the team reportedly arrived at a plan to play their home games in nearby San Francisco.

Pacers Fans Taunt Brandon Ingram With Ruthless "LeBron's Gonna Trade You" Chant
The Lakers are very sleepily facing the Indiana Pacers Tuesday night.

Report: Less Bamba
Mo Bamba, who went sixth in the 2018 NBA draft, was having a perfectly cromulent rookie season for the Magic: 6.2 points, 5.0 boards, and 1.4 blocks in 16 minutes a game. It was easy to forget about the big man given all the exciting tots from that lottery, and it was easy to lose sight of him amid ...
There Was A Big Ol' Brawl Between Patriots Fans At Their Super Bowl Parade
The Patriots held their Super Bowl parade today in Boston, and when you have so many in this short of a span, it gets a little repetitive. The team took a shot at ESPN’s Max Kellerman, because apparently he was this year’s big baddie who needed to be proven wrong. Bionic mastiff Rob Gronkowski and h...
