Gilbert Arenas Smashes His Own Car With A Cinder Block
This is a strange one, though seeing as it involves Gilbert Arenas that probably should have been assumed. Earlier today, Arenas posted a video to his Instagram account. The video shows a hand holding a phone, and on that phone a video is playing that shows Arenas smashing a cinder block into a luxu...
RIP To Matthew Dellavedova And His Terrible, Beautiful Lob Passes
For a minute there, it looked like Matthew Dellavedova, little try-hard that he is, was going to become a Finals hero for the Cleveland Cavaliers. That didn’t really work out, but that’s not to say that Delly didn’t provide us with a great deal of entertainment, because oh man did this guy do some h...
IPA Is Still The King Of Beers
In these fractious times, when we can’t even agree on what constitutes a sandwich (hot dogs are not sandwiches, because if you ate three sandwiches in one sitting, all existing and several future generations of your family would disown you on the spot, you gross monster) or who the MVP of the NBA Fi...
The Golden State Warriors Declare Their Love For The CoCo One Last Time
Earlier this season, the Golden State Warriors started one of the best post-victory rituals in the NBA, one that consisted of the team singing and dancing along to O.T. Genasis’s “CoCo” on the team plane. Unfortunately, because “CoCo” is about drugs, they got in a bit of trouble and had to resort to...
Who Leaked The Astros' Hacked Data, And Why?
Of the many unanswered questions that promise to make the hacking of the Houston Astros’ “Ground Control” database an extended, spectacular scandal, the most obvious one is also the least explicable: why would someone with illegal access to secret, proprietary information go and leak it?...
Prince Fielder Eats It
Prince Fielder rounded third base and fell in Tuesday’s game against the Dodgers. Everyone laughed at him. Even Prince had to laugh at himself. What a day....
Director Of Terrible FIFA Movie Rues His New Rep As A Propaganda Man
Frédéric Auburtin had the misfortune of directing the colossal flop that was United Passions, the movie about and paid for by FIFA. And while directing an awful movie itself can usually be brushed off pretty easily, the recent scandal has inflicted lasting scars on Auburtin’s reputation, as he expla...
Draymond Green Found His Cockiness And Saved The Warriors
Draymond Green certainly didn’t deserve to win the Finals MVP award (neither did Andre Iguodala, for that matter), but it’s hard to imagine the Warriors putting this series away without his resurgence, which began in Game 4 and ended with last night’s championship-clinching triple-double....
Report: Not All Of The Data Hacked From The Astros Was Leaked Publicly
The original New York Times story on the St. Louis Cardinals hacking scandal gives a broad outline of what happened, but as it describes an investigation in process, it is disappointingly light on crucial details like who perpetrated the hacking, when they did it, why they did it, and how exactly it...
The Golden State Warriors Are Your 2015 NBA Champions
This is the most sportswritery thing I’ll ever write, but all season long the Golden State Warriors won as a team. Sure, Stephen Curry was the MVP of the league, but he was far from a one man band. Klay Thompson, Draymond Green, and Andrew Bogut all won league-wide awards. After two stagnant season,...
Deadcast: Did La’el Collins Stiff A Hooker Who Ate His Ass Out?
It’s the question of our time, really: Did Dallas Cowboys rookie free agent lineman La’el Collins help himself to a free tossed salad? A self-proclaimed “orally gifted” escort who goes by the handle of THROATZILLA certainly thinks so, and she publicly unloaded both barrels on Collins earlier this mo...
Six Surprises From The Adidas Grand Prix
At the Adidas Grand Prix track meet in NYC this past Saturday it was warm (brutal for the distance events) and windy (sprints suffered), so there was a little something for everyone....
Ian Desmond Solves The Yips, Personifies Irony, Is Screwed
After starting the season with eight errors in the Nationals’ first 15 games, Ian Desmond’s adventurous play at shortstop has mostly leveled off, to the enormous relief of his teammates and the mild disappointment of fans of slapstick comedy. Two months later he’s sitting on 14 errors, all but endin...
Eat Shit, Cardinals
By now, you know that the St. Louis Cardinals—the sports equivalent of the Duggar clan—are currently under investigation by the FBI for hacking into a Houston Astros database. (The FBI! That means they’re fucked.) And not only did they allegedly hack into another team’s system, but they allegedly di...
University Of Texas Investigating Allegations Of Academic Fraud
The University of Texas at Austin has hired an independent investigator following allegations of academic fraud within the men’s basketball program. The allegations were brought to light in an article published in the Chronicle of Higher Education last Wednesday. ...
What The Cardinals Learned From Hacking The Astros
You may be wondering exactly what information the St. Louis Cardinals got their hands on when they hacked into the Houston Astros’ proprietary database. Well, thanks to whoever publicly leaked the hacked documents last summer, we can provide at least a partial answer to that question....
Everyone Involved In The Cardinals Hacking Scandal Seems To Be An Idiot
What makes the St. Louis Cardinals hacking scandal really great, aside from the fact that it involves the St. Louis Cardinals, is that it could not have happened if everyone involved hadn’t acted as stupidly as possible....
Report: FBI Investigates St. Louis Cardinals For Hacking The Astros
The FBI reportedly found evidence that St. Louis Cardinals officials broke into the Houston Astros’ internal database of player personnel information, according to the New York Times. Parts of that database, including updates on trade negotiations, were then published on Deadspin. The bureau has sub...
