Once again, the NFL has insisted that its inability to comprehend the repeated abuse suffered by a woman—Molly Brown, in this case, the ex-wife of New York Giants kicker Josh Brown—wasn’t due to its own incompetence.

Get A Load Of These Outlandish <i>Westworld</i> Fan Theories
HBO’s Westworld is draped with the trappings of the horror, action adventure, and Western genres, but it’s best understood as a mystery. The show doesn’t exactly have a coherent, unified plot so much as a tableau of vignettes and characters whose interconnectedness is only vaguely clear. The more th...

Here’s Draymond Green going off on Paul Pierce and the other NBA-adjacent critics of Kevin Durant’s choice to join the Warriors.
