Ángel Di María And PSG Kick Barcelona's Dicks Clean Off
For years Paris Saint-Germain have spared no expense in their efforts to realize their dream of winning the Champions League. For years they’ve failed, putting out attack-minded teams that crush domestic foes in Ligue 1 but consistently come up short in the competition they really want to win. And w...
Judge Orders Stop Of Some Deportations At LAX
A federal judge has issued a temporary restraining order telling U.S. Customs and Border Protection that the agency must stop enforcing part of the Muslim ban at Los Angeles International Airport. The order, issued late Tuesday by U.S. District Judge Andre Birotte Jr., did not address the entirety o...
Goodness, This Blake Griffin Pass
Blake Griffin just returned from a lengthy injury layoff to recover from knee surgery, and it appears that he’s been antsy to get back. He went all And-1 to scoot this pass in to J.J. Redick in the first quarter tonight, and thankfully, Redick hit the layup....
Former Refugee Luol Deng Speaks On Trump's Muslim Ban: "That Light Is Turned Off"
Lakers forward Luol Deng was born in what is now South Sudan, and had to flee the country during the Second Sudanese Civil War. He and his family became refugees in Egypt, where they waited for five years before being allowed to emigrate to the United Kingdom. After last night’s game against the Nug...
Nobody Knows What Trump's Customs And Border Agents Are Doing At LAX
LOS ANGELES INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT — Nana Sarkisyan brought her passport with her Tuesday, just in case she had to go back to Armenia. Up until a few days ago, that was not the plan. The plan was that her husband would step off his flight, pass through customs on his immigration visa, and become a gr...
"I Don't Believe I'm In The U.S. Anymore"
LOS ANGELES INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT—It was hard to not feel enthusiastic when I first arrived Sunday at Los Angeles International Airport, although that feeling would wane by the time I left, replaced by a quote from one woman who had been reunited with her sister after five hours of detainment: “I do...
Oh God The Knicks Are Going To Screw This Melo Shit Up So Completely, I Can't Wait
The Los Angeles Clippers are wounded—literally!—and in trouble. Chris Paul’s out for at least five more weeks with an injured thumb; Blake Griffin only just returned from a knee injury that kept him out of 18 games. They’ve lost three of four, and to some real dogs: the Wolves, Nuggets, and 76ers. T...
These DeAndre Jordan Free Throws Are High Art
DeAndre Jordan stands to have his production decline as much as anyone on the Clippers in Chris Paul’s absence. Jordan is Paul’s primary alley-oop muse, and his offensive rebounding skills are a lot less handy without Paul’s penetration. However, that has nothing to do with Jordan airmailing two fre...
And On This Day In History, Kobe Scored 81
Congratulations to Louis Williams, the only Laker with more than 10 points today. (He had 15.)...
Double Bird-Toting Chargers Fan Kicked Out Of L.A. Event For Loudly Interrupting Dean Spanos
Chargers owner Dean Spanos held an event in Los Angeles to introduce his team to its new city today. The Chargers, clearly ready to create a unique identity for themselves in their new city, met fans and press at, well, the same venue that the Rams held a similar event in a year ago. However, becaus...
The Chargers' Logo Died On Its Way Back To Its Home Planet
Those were a heady few days, weren’t they, after the Chargers announced their move from San Diego and then soft-launched an L.A. logo that looked like the Dodgers logo stuck its dick in a wall socket. It was mocked by hockey teams, booed by Los Angeles basketball fans, color-swapped and mocked again...
Chris Paul Is Hurt Again And The Clippers Might Be Screwed
Remember when the Los Angeles Clippers were hot out of the gates and the basketball intelligentsia talked about them as a serious threat to the Warriors’ Western Conference dominance? Well....
The Los Angeles Chargers Have Used Three Different Logos In Two Days

Los Angeles Chargers Unveil New Logo

No One Wants You, Dean Spanos
The saddest part of this whole thing is that everyone said their goodbyes a year ago. The fans of San Diego gave a raucous, emotional farewell to their NFL team for the last half-century, fully expecting the Chargers to pull up stakes. And then ... they didn’t leave. Like a significant other who dum...
Report: The Chargers Are Finally Announcing That They'll Head To L.A.
I hope you enjoyed last season’s dose of terrible football and unlivable stadium conditions, Los Angeles residents, because you’re in for twice the fun next season! ...
Los Angeles Really Wants To Host The 2024 Olympics
It is becoming increasingly clear that hosting an Olympic Games tends to precede financial ruin. Rio de Janeiro just got finished hosting the Summer Games and the city is more or less out of money. Would-be host cities of the 2022 Winter Games scrambled to take their names out of the running and Bos...
Could Mike Trout Exploit A California Labor Law Quirk To Become A Free Agent Early?
There isn’t a team in Major League Baseball that wouldn’t jump at the chance to sign Mike Trout, whose two MVP awards in his first five years of big league service vastly underrepresent how good he really is. And there isn’t a team that could afford to do so that wouldn’t throw hundreds of millions ...
