Caris LeVert Taken Off On Stretcher After Seriously Fucking Up His Leg
Brooklyn Nets small forward Caris LeVert, the leading scorer on one of the sneaky-fun teams in the NBA this year, likely just saw his season come to an end.

Markelle Fultz Shooting Form Update: He's Pump Faking Free Throws
Sixers point guard Markelle Fultz’s shooting stroke doesn’t appear to be getting any better. Sure, he went 7-for-9 from the field on Saturday against the Grizzlies, but overall, he has refused to take a three-pointer in the month of November, and his eFG% is worst on the Sixers except for some guy n...
The 49ers And Giants Are Playing Monday Night Football In Some Very Nasty Air

This Ain't It, Team That Appropriates A Chief
The Skins beat the Buccaneers 16-3 yesterday, and apparently a victory over a three-win squad gave some social media doofus the gumption to try to dunk on the losers online....
Cal's Defensive Turnaround Is A Marvel<em></em>

Aaron Donald Took A Cheap Shot From Justin Britt Then Tried To Settle Things After The Game

A Roundup Of Jets Fans Looking Like Hostages
Year 4 of the Mike Maccagnan-Todd Bowles era has finally hit rock bottom. Sunday, the Jets hosted the 2-7 Bills, who were reduced to starting Matt Barkley, a fourth-string quarterback who wasn’t even on an NFL roster until Halloween. Oh, and Buffalo came in with the worst offense in DVOA history. Th...
Sean Payton Destroyed A Fire Alarm Before The Saints Destroyed The Bengals
Whether Saints head coach Sean Payton was angry or just trying to hype up his team before Sunday’s game against the Bengals, he seriously fucked up the fire alarm in the visiting locker room at Paul Brown Stadium. What’d he use to do this damage? Does he have fists made of steel?...
Let's Remember Some Carmelo Anthony Highlights

Brook Lopez Is Keeping His Résumé Fresh, Learning New Skills, Banging Eight Threes
Brook Lopez entered the league as a smooth post operator with a reliable set shot, and it’s gotten him paid pretty well. A decade-old Jonathan Givony scouting report from Lopez’s days at Stanford now makes for quaint reading. It mopes for a paragraph, fretting about Lopez’s “formulaic” post moves fr...
The Colts Can Block Now
Feel free to disagree, but the best highlight to come out of this week’s slate of NFL games was a moment from yesterday’s Colts-Jaguars game, when rookie Colts guard Quenton Nelson pulled into the hole and absolutely buried Jaguars safety Barry Church:...
Jared Goff Is Shooting His Shot With Halle Berry, I Guess
Jared Goff hoped she would hear it. On the Rams’ first offensive drive of their 36-31 win over the Seahawks, Goff called an audible, and knew the CBS mics would pick it up. “I was like, ‘It’s so quiet right now, this is going to get on TV,’” he said....
The Raiders Are An Abyss
After a 20-6 loss to the Chargers, in a performance dispirited even for the Raiders, head coach Jon Gruden provided the quote that ought to be slapped onto the season-in-review DVDs, before those DVDs are immediately buried in a depleted copper mine, the mine entrance sealed off with concrete and th...

Zion Williamson Spent Veterans Day Disrespecting The Troops
Veterans Day is a holiday meant to honor the veterans of this nation’s armed forces and the sacrifices they make.
