Conor McGregor, who’s currently luxuriating in the afterglow of getting his ass kicked for money, recently saw a big boat.

MLB Opening Day Will Be Good Again
It’s been a long, long time since opening day was actually opening day for everyone.

USC Pretends Like It Didn't Lose The 2006 Rose Bowl
The 2005-06 USC Trojans were an unholy powerhouse that went on an 12-0 romp through college football only to be upended in the 2006 Rose Bowl by Vince Young and the Texas Longhorns.

Giancarlo Stanton Will Not Be The Home Run King Until He Hits 74 Home Runs
In all likelihood, at some point in the next few weeks Giancarlo Stanton of the Miami Marlins will bash his 60th home run of the 2017 season.

Like any great, late college football match-up involving a Pac-12 team, last night/this morning’s Washington State-Boise State battle went well beyond the bounds of acceptable football watching time, with triple overtime wrapping up after 2:30 a.m. on the east coast.
