Colin Cowherd's And Jason Whitlock's <i>All Takes Matter </i>Is Going To Be A Goddamn Hour Long
The world is already aware that Colin Cowherd and Jason Whitlock will team up for their new Fox Sports 1 show Speak For Yourself, which should be called (and which we are calling) All Takes Matter, but no one was prepared for it to be a full hour at 6 p.m....

Let's Remember Some Guys
Last night, Steph Curry became the first player to score 40 points off the bench in a playoff game since Nick Van Exel did it in 2003. Maybe you’ve forgotten about Nick Van Exel :( But now you remember him. Let’s remember some other guys:...

The Atlanta Braves Are Historically Futile At Home
At 7-23, the Atlanta Braves have the worst record in the majors, and they’re on track to put up the worst record in over a century. But their overall record masks an interesting home/away split. The Braves are 6-8 on the road, which is quite respectable. But that also means they’re an eye-popping 1-...

What The Hell Is Dwane Casey Doing?
Raptors head coach Dwane Casey has been put in an extremely unenviable position as he tries to guide his team to the Eastern Conference Finals. Kyle Lowry and DeMar DeRozan have had their abilities banished to the Negative Zone, Jonas Valanciunas is out with a knee injury, and his most reliable scor...

The Predators Have Something Left In The Tank
The Predators are counter-punchers. They fought back from 3-2 down to make it to the second round. They fought back from being outplayed in the multiple overtimes of Game 4 against the Sharks to snatch a win. With their backs up against the wall again last night, they fought back from an early two-g...

Jose Altuve Can Do It All
The Houston Astros have been one of the most disappointing teams in baseball this season, sitting last in an AL West they were expected to dominate. The pitching staff has been giving up too many runs and even ace Dallas Keuchel’s stats are down across the board (beard’s still good at least). But Ca...

After 50 Minutes Of Mistreatment, Basketball Seeks Refuge Away From Players
It’s rare we can call a playoff overtime basketball game anything less than “good,” but the Raptors and Heat went out of their way to provide viewers and spectators the most inept display of postseason basketball possible. Late in overtime, the basketball itself said “enough.”...

J.T. Realmuto Got A Dinger Called Off For Passing Marcell Ozuna On The Basepath
The Miami Marlins are just cooling off after an unholy hot streak where they won 11 of 12 and hit some bombastic dongers.

Sacramento Kings Do Something Smart, Hire Dave Joerger
The Sacramento Kings announced this afternoon that they’d hired former Memphis Grizzlies head coach Dave Joerger. Since it’s the Kings, you probably reflexively think this is a dumb move, but it’s actually the opposite!...

The Thunder Need Kevin Durant To Hulk Out
The story of yesterday’s Game 4 between the Spurs and Thunder is obviously Kevin Durant, who led the Thunder to victory with 41 points and outscored San Antonio 17-16 in the fourth quarter. But just as important as all the shots Durant made were all the shots Russell Westbrook didn’t take....

Domestic Abuser Tyreek Hill Says Fans Have Every Right To Hate Him
In this new era of the NFL deciding it cares about domestic violence, it’s become a post-draft tradition to identify the selectee who committed the most despicable crime in college, and even criticize his team for drafting him. This year’s stigma belongs to new Chiefs wide receiver Tyreek Hill....

How Will Bryce Harper Deal With The Barry Bonds Treatment?
