The Packers Have A New Play-Caller
Preseason wins and losses don’t matter, but preseason games do. It’s a chance for players to get realtime experience with new systems and new coaches, and for a chance for coaches to get used to their new roles. Usually, the biggest changes happen on bad teams that have cleaned house, not teams that...
Colin Cowherd Gives Pedro Martinez A Very On-Brand Compliment
Racist Gumby Colin Cowherd recently gave an interview to The Hollywood Reporter, marking the first time he’s spoken publicly since his take on Dominican baseball players earned him an early exit from ESPN.

Russell Martin Chases Pop-Up Over Dugout Railing, Almost Eats It
Russell, my man. Your team is on an eight-game winning streak, it’s the first inning, and you’re playing against the sadsack A’s. Don’t throw it all away getting injured trying to catch a foul ball!...
Dutch Goalie Scores Insane Backheel Stoppage Time Equalizer
One of the most fun little moments in a soccer match is a corner kick or free kick with the game almost over, and the attacking team either tied or down a goal. Their towering goalkeeper comes jogging up the field to join the fray, and the ball is pumped into the middle of literally 20 players where...

How To Throw A House Show Without Getting Evicted
Getting bands to play at your house might seem like a hackneyed plot only plausible within the confines of movie-fantasy college parties.

Classic Man: "Always Invite A Few Sworn Enemies To Your Parties"
Frequently in this space, we will consult a new entry in the 1987 book The Modern Man’s Guide to Life to see how the advice therein has aged. Earlier this week we addressed how to interact with the ladies; today, we’ll tackle dinner parties. ...
Colbert Brings Jon Stewart To Tears With Correspondents' Farewell
The first 25+ minutes of tonight’s final Daily Show with Jon Stewart featured the full gallery of correspondents during Stewart’s 16 years at the show’s helm, many of whom graduated from the program to become stars in their own right.

Adios, Sucker: A Conservative Bids A Mostly Fond Adieu To Jon Stewart
Jon Stewart’s last episode of The Daily Show is tonight, and everyone promises to miss him, even if, like me, they stopped watching him religiously years ago.

Which Baseball Fight Moment Would You Commission As A Work Of Art?
Our pal Shawn visited the National Sports Collectors Convention this weekend and wrote up some of his strangest findings over at Hall of Very Good. One item, however, caught our eye: this oil painting by Justyn Farano of the famous Nolan Ryan-Robin Ventura brawl that took place 22 years ago. We’d ha...
Seth Rollins Helps Jon Stewart Present All His Fake Arby's Slogans
Longtime viewers of The Daily Show with Jon Stewart know that Arby’s is one of the program’s most frequent targets.

Drake's New Diss Track Comes With A Great Sports Troll
Drake and Meek Mill are beefing because Meek claimed that Drake doesn’t write his own raps. This morning, Drake released his second diss track aimed at Meek, and it’s pretty good, as diss tracks go, but what I really like about it is the cover art:...
The Mexican Football Federation fired coach Miguel Herrera Tuesday, one day after he reportedly punched TV Azteca journalist Christian Martinoli in the neck at the Philadelphia airport.

Mexican National Team Coach Allegedly Punched A Journalist In The Neck
Mexican national team coach Miguel Herrera is a crazy person in good times and in bad. You’d think that good times would bring out good-crazy, and that Mexico’s referee-delivered Gold Cup win would elicit those happy emotions. But according to Mexican journalist Christian Martinoli, Herrera was not ...
