Carlos Boozer Finally Explains His Sprayed-On Hair
Carlos Boozer has had a long and successful NBA career, but if there’s one thing he’s always going to be remembered for, it’s the night he played in a nationally televised game with what looked like an entire can of shoe polish smeared all over his dome. On yesterday’s episode of Highly Questionable...
The Political Satire <i>Our Brand Is Crisis </i>Isn't Nearly As Sharp As It Pretends To Be
Our Brand Is Crisis means to cast a harsh light on presidential campaigns, but it mostly just panders. The new film from director David Gordon Green (who’s done everything from George Washington to Pineapple Express) spends way too much time congratulating you for agreeing with its cynical perspecti...
London Mayor Takes Break From Harming Kids In Sports, Eats It In Tug-Of-War
Boris Johnson, mayor of London, infamous child injurer, and all-around galoot, finally decided to pick on some lads his own size when he took on members of the UK’s armed forces in a tug-of-war match. Like his other spells with athletics, it too ended in embarrassment, only this time he was the only...
This Is The Best New Pumpkin Beer
Booze and leisure bloggers have no need for calendars, but we do require many of the same ointments, detergents, and jerkies that bring the rest of you into Walgreen’s on a regular basis. That trip is also how I know that Halloween hasn’t passed yet: The salted-pomegranate candy corn has yet to give...
It's Fall, So Invest In A Good Pair Of Boots
Buying a good pair of boots is kinda like buying a car. You want to find something that looks good, gets good mileage, and will last. You might have to spend a little money to get the most bang for your buck. It took me two seasons of buying the exact same pair of Aldo (a middle-of-the-road shoe bra...
The Hateful Life And Spiteful Death Of The Man Who Was Vigo The Carpathian
You’ve seen a painting of Norbert Grupe. A heavy, creased brow and shoulder-length hair framing a frightening scowl, the massive work hung in the fictional Manhattan Museum of Art in Ghostbusters II. When the medieval sorcerer pictured within the painting begins to physically manifest, it is on the ...

Why Would Anyone Defend Greg Hardy?

Reporter's Bullshit Detector Goes Off As Jerry Jones Praises Greg Hardy

The Cowboys Are Just Going To Keep Covering For Greg Hardy
As much as the Cowboys want to downplay Greg Hardy’s little sideline meltdown toward the end of Dallas’s loss to the Giants—and cast his tantrum as the actions of “one of the real leaders on this team,” as Jerry Jones put it—it’s telling that he got a visit from Tony Romo right after the game. Romo ...
Greg Hardy Got In A Fight With The Cowboys Special Teams Coach
Greg Hardy’s second game back from his four game suspension didn’t go so well. He and Dez Bryant had a heated exchange on the sidelines after the Cowboys gave up a game-winning return touchdown. Not great Greg!...
Greg Hardy Was Mad At Everyone Today
The Giants beat the Cowboys 27-20 today to take the lead atop the NFC East, the most comically mediocre division in football, thanks to Dwayne Harris’s fourth quarter 100-yard kickoff return. Greg Hardy picked up another sack in his second game back from a four-game suspension, but the game did not ...

11 Gins, Ranked
Gin is the best white spirit, and its reward for this distinction is an unfounded but excellent reputation for spookiness and danger. Long before Reddit’s baddest boyz started taking pictures of “shower beer” balanced precariously atop their guts, the true freedom fighters of the 1920s battled Prohi...
