Eric Bledsoe Has A Special Message For All You Suns Fans Out There
The Phoenix Suns are truly awful. They’ve played three games this season, and lost them by a combined 92 points; their best young players are hilariously incapable of playing winning basketball; and their best veteran player, Eric Bledsoe, seems to have seen enough of this shit:...
Browns' Only Strength Also Ruined
With an injury to Joe Thomas’s triceps, the lone good thing about the Cleveland Browns came to an end. The stalwart tackle, who had played in 10,363 straight offensive snaps since debuting for Cleveland in 2007, had to leave the game after a three-yard run from Duke Johnson....
Marc Gasol Gave The Business To The Warriors Last Night
Overshadowed, somewhat, by the ejections of Steph Curry and Kevin Durant, and the general improbability of the Warriors ever losing—let alone losing to a team starting both Andrew Harrison and Jarell Martin—was another instant classic performance by Marc Gasol, who is wonderful....
What Are The Sixers Even Doing With Markelle Fultz?
It’s too early—far, far too early, in fact—for any conclusions or pronouncements having to do with Markelle Fultz as an NBA prospect. But if you’ve watched the first three games of Fultz’s career, I think you’re probably feeling the same concern I am this morning: How sure are we that Fultz is healt...
Giannis Antetokounmpo Dedicates Best Game Yet To His Late Father
Giannis Antetokounmpo, the 22-year-old Milwaukee star who keeps improving his freakish set of skills, hit a new high last night in a 113-110 win over Portland. Antetokounmpo dropped a career-best 44 points in a dramatic contest, announcing his full transformation from fascinating beanpole of potenti...
Yankees Fail To Win 41st American League Pennant; Astros Win First
The Houston Astros are headed to their second World Series after claiming the American League pennant for the first time, downing the Yankees in the ALCS’s deciding seventh game 4-0 thanks to five shutdown innings from starter Charlie Morton, some well-timed defense, and Lance McCullers Jr. shreddin...
Bobby Portis Issues A Totally Sincere Apology For Socking Nikola Mirotic
Here’s a totally not-at-all-perfunctory apology from Bobby Portis, for busting up teammate Nikola Mirotic’s face and sending him to the hospital. Feel the emotion!...
The Pelicans Are Shuffling The Saddest Deck In The Universe
You would not think a person could muster up much of a feeling about Jordan Crawford being cut by an NBA basketball team in 2017, and yet, here we are. ...
The Nationals Fired Dusty Baker Because They're Just Thrashing Around
For a nice cathartic kick, I recommend USA Today’s Bob Nightengale’s take on the Nationals’ dumb but depressingly predictable firing of Dusty Baker, done via telephone Friday:...
Defend Your Boots From The Rain, And Dog Shit
Boots might be able to handle the mud, crud, and animal shit you encounter, but they need care, too....
Kyrie Irving, To Taunting Sixers Fan: "Suck My Dick!"
Last night, in Philadelphia, a taunting Sixers fan shouted down into the tunnel “Kyrie, where’s LeBron?” The timing was good, as Kyrie Irving himself seemed to be navigating that section of tunnel, and was apparently within earshot, judging by this response:...
Attaboy, Lonzo
Certain caveats apply: the Phoenix Suns are incredibly awful; it’s just one game; his 29 points came on 27 shots; etc. Still. Lonzo Ball badly needed a bounce-back performance to wash away the stink of Patrick Beverley’s nether regions, and last night he got a good one, recording 29 points, 11 rebou...
I Have Had Enough Of These Damn Injuries, NBA
Tim McMahon of ESPN is reporting that Chris Paul will miss the next two to four weeks while recovering from a bruised left knee. Houston’s schedule over the next two weeks goes Mavericks, Grizzlies, 76ers, Hornets, Grizzlies, 76ers, Knicks, and Hawks, so they’ll be fine. More importantly, what’s wit...

Inspired by Tim Ryan, here’s a gallery of top college football coaches sporting Mike Gundy’s legendary mullet:...
At Least There's Kristaps
The Thunder look like they’ll be fun, and good. The Knicks are of course neither, but in last night’s 105-84 loss they were bad on a level that still managed to surprise. If you are a team with a hopeless season ahead of you but a small gaggle of bright young players, you might just invest in their ...
In 2010, Male Gymnast Accused Of Rape Said, "I'm Used To Getting What I Want From Women"
Earlier this week, Vitaly Scherbo, the 1992 Olympic all-around champion in men’s gymnastics, was accused by his female counterpart—1992 women’s all-around gold medalist Tatiana Gutsu—of raping her when she was 15 years old. While Scherbo has not made any public remarks since Gutsu alleged he assault...
Barbora Strýcová<em></em> Is Pissed That World No. 3 Karolina Pliskova Stole Her Coach
The coaching carousel in pro tennis has been picking up speed for years, but the frequent turnover generally involves low-drama transactions—a player fell a few spots in the rankings and wants to change tracks, for example. But this week, world No. 25 Barbora Strýcová accused her countrywoman and w...
This Is Clayton Kershaw's Time To Shine
The Dodgers are going to the World Series for the first time in nearly 30 years and we already know who will be on the mound for Game 1 in Los Angeles. It will be the face of the franchise, Clayton Kershaw. It couldn’t be anyone else....
Marshawn Lynch Watched Game From The Stands After Ejection, Took The Train Home
After Marshawn Lynch was ejected from last night’s game against the Chiefs for making contact with an official, there were reports that he had immediately changed into street clothes in the locker room and left the stadium. That turned out to not be quite true; Lynch did indeed leave the locker room...
Of Course Patrick Beverley Shut Down Lonzo Ball
In perhaps the most predictable turn of events of the NBA’s early season, Clippers point guard Patrick Beverley held Lakers rookie sensation Lonzo Ball to three points on 1-of-6 shooting. Also predictably, Beverley was pleased with his handiwork after the game, according to ESPN’s Marc Spears:...
