The resulting insults have been as p...

Deion Sanders Denies Shelving Florida Recruits At All-America Game Due To FSU Bias
Deion Sanders serves as one of the coaches at an annual high school football All-America game, though it seems that not all of his players were pleased with the (mostly ceremonial) job he did.

Steelers’ Maurkice Pouncey Says James Harrison “Erased His Own Legacy” By Signing With Patriots
It’s been quite a week for the Pittsburgh Steelers, and it has nothing to do with their play on the field (a 34-6 win over the Texans on Christmas).

Durant And Westbrook Finally Had It Out
The biggest feud in the NBA, one which both parties would like you to believe is not in fact a feud, finally came to a head tonight. Russ and KD met a few times last season, and did a bit of chirping, but during tonight’s game they finally, truly, got into it....

Joel Embiid And Hassan Whiteside Appear To Not Like Each Other Very Much
Here’s a date to circle on your NBA calendar (you’ve got an NBA calendar, right? Hanging up in your bedroom? Next to the John Wall Fathead and above your candlelit John Wall shrine?

Bucs Clarify They Won't Let Internet Tough Guys Come Talk Shit With Gerald McCoy
If you heard Gerald McCoy’s call to come to the Buccaneers’ headquarters and talk your shit to his face yesterday, I have bad news for you: The Bucs won’t let you, because answering McCoy’s call to come “hold court” with him does not (for some reason) constitute “official business.”...

Neymar And Cavani's Mid-Game Ego Clash Brings Some Drama To PSG
Probably the most astounding part of Barcelona’s world-historic Messi-Suárez-Neymar attacking line—even more so than all the tricks and flicks and assists and goals—was how well all three got along. The MSN era was defined by those three superstars’ genuine friendship, selflessness, and prioritizati...

Jürgen Klopp Left Extremely Confused By Bizarre Beef Between Him And Sevilla Coaches

Hell Yes, Now The Red Sox Are Accusing The Yankees Of Cheating
If this sign-stealing scandal is truly going to reignite the rivalry between the Yankees and Red Sox, it needs to hit a few more stages of escalation.
