What The Hell Is <i>Westworld</i> Gonna Do Next Season?
Television’s best show about murderous sex robots, HBO’s Westworld, wrapped up its debut season last night in the way most prestige TV shows do. Characters died, twists were revealed, and the season ended on a somewhat ambiguous note....
Behold Everything Beautiful And Ugly About DeMarcus Cousins
The Knicks and the Kings played last night at Madison Square Garden, and at least for those of us who live in New York, it was a far more entertaining spectacle than the shit-ass game between the Giants and Steelers that it overlapped with for most of the early evening. The Knicks were victorious a...

When Did You Figure Out <i>Westworld's</i> Big Twist?

Hope Is Wearing Thin For The Vikings
Seemingly ages ago, the Minnesota Vikings were 5-0, sported the best defense in the league, and got a shocking amount of production from an offense led by the surprisingly competent Sam Bradford. Now the team’s 6-6 and losing ground in the playoff hunt, and Thursday night’s loss to the Cowboys offer...
Officials Missed A Huge Blow To Sam Bradford's Head On Game-Deciding Play
The Minnesota Vikings held Dak Prescott to his fewest yards passing in an NFL game and staged a late comeback against the Dallas Cowboys tonight, but they came up short on a late two-point conversion and lost, 17-15.

Russell Westbrook On Rebounding Prowess: "I Just Be Chilling There, Act Like I'm Not Doing Nothing"
Russell Westbrook can go from stationary to licking the backboard in the span of one or two nonchalant steps. He’s just standing there, and then something unseen explodes, and the ball’s in his clutches. Aside from making him, at 6-foot-3, one of the best rebounding guards of all time, this tireless...
Kind And Gentle Aussie Goalkeeper Rescues Seagull That Took A Ball To The Face
Born to a sun-scorched land whose cruelly blistering climes have weeded out all but the most terrifying and murderous critters (and, somehow, koalas), it makes sense that Australians would be better equipped than most to interact with the rare friendly creature that crosses their paths with respect,...
Baylor Regent: Getting A Full Report Would Have Cost Us Money
Members of the Baylor University Board of Regents have avoided discussing why they never commissioned, received, nor released a full, detailed written report from outside investigators at Pepper Hamilton on how their institution made life a living hell for women who reported they were raped (especia...
Bodybuilder Decks Official, Flips Tables, And Completely Freaks Out After Losing
This here’s Giannis Magos. He’s a Greek bodybuilder who appears to be about 30 percent tanning oil and anabolic steroids by volume. Magos won his weight class, but finished second overall at a bodybuilding event this weekend in Greece and he lost his shit after finding out he finished second. Specif...
Al Horford's Sister Tells Radio Doofus To Fuck Off Over His Bad Paternity Leave Take
Al Horford missed the Celtics’ win last night over the Heat to be in Atlanta for the birth of his daughter. This did not sit well with Mike Felger, a Boston-based radio and TV doofus, who said on CSN New England last night that Horford should have chartered a private jet and made the game because th...
It's Always Nice To Get Another Peek At LeBron James's Genius
The “LeBron as cyborg” trope may get old with repetition, but it’s also just ... true? It is true. We’ve been presented with more evidence that he is a post-human basketball genius than otherwise. And while it’s hard to add anything truly novel to the conversation about James, it does happen occasio...
Dabo Swinney Thinks Reporters Should Be Fired For Doing Their Jobs
Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney has a bone to pick with all those unethical reporters out there who don’t cover his team exactly the way he wants them to. ...
Bill Belichick Apparently Cost Tim Tebow A Lucrative Endorsement Right Before Cutting Him
Before he turned into a full-on salesperson with a struggling baseball career, Tim Tebow was briefly a New England Patriot. He was on the team for most of the summer of 2013, but he got cut before the season started. Tebow, fresh off a middling spell in the Arizona Fall League, is now promoting his ...
Josh Norman Clarifies Comments About Dez Bryant, Is A Weenie<em></em>
The spiciest moment from this year’s serving of Thanksgiving NFL games was the eruption of a full-blown beef between Josh Norman and Dez Bryant. The two spent most of the game yipping at each other before getting into an altogether muted scuffle immediately after the game ended. ...
