Colts Won't Chuck Pagano, After All
It was just last Thursday when ESPN reported the Indianapolis Colts were going to fire head coach Chuck Pagano after Sunday’s game.

Here Is A "Loop Video" Of Ken Griffey Jr.'s Perfect Swing For The Hall Of Fame Voter Who Wanted One
MLB.com baseball writer Marty Noble has turned in his Baseball Hall of Fame ballot, and from the deep pool of eligible candidates, he has selected just Ken Griffey Jr. and Jeff Kent.

Roy Hibbert, Who Is Still Around, Dunks And Dabs
Roy Hibbert’s transformation from dominant NBA center to dilapidated coat rack was completed a long time ago, but the big guy is still taking the floor for the Lakers every night, racking up seven points and six rebounds per 26 minutes of stilted run. Every now and then, he even does something notew...
The Suns Are A Wreck, And The Owner Is Blaming "Millennial Culture"
It wasn’t so long ago that the Phoenix Suns were one of the NBA’s feel-good stories. Jeff Hornacek took a weirdly constructed lineup, featuring a two- and then three-headed point guard monster, and turned the Suns into one of the more exciting young teams in the league. But the roster’s been rejigge...
Thad Matta Does Best Stanford Shithead Impression
Somebody must have told Thad Matta about the Stanford shithead who won’t shut up, because the Ohio State head coach popped up behind forward Marc Loving during his Big Ten Network post-game interview tonight to shout out “HEISMAN!” a few times. It’s humorous, but you should really see the time he re...

TCU Blocks Oregon Punt; Oregon Ends Up With First Down Anyway
I’ve only seen this happen once before in my life: a team gets their punt blocked, recovers the blocked punt, and gains a first down. This is incredibly bad luck for a TCU team that’s down big (and down their quarterback)....

Christian Hackenberg Thanks Everyone But His Coach While Declaring For NFL Draft
