David Brooks Seems Extremely Confused (About Amphibians)
Amphibians, as every little kid knows, are born in water, as larvae, breathing water through gills. Later they undergo metamorphosis, and emerge from the water with (in most cases) air-breathing respiratory systems. Even after they’ve taken to land, though, they retain highly permeable skin that can...

Fox News Host Laura Ingraham Blows The Dog Whistle On LeBron James [Updated]
Laura Ingraham is a Fox News personality whose job is to say nice things about Donald Trump and generally seem kind of impatient, a job that she carries off while exuding all the charisma and personal warmth of a clenched butt cheek. Last night, during her show Laura Ingraham Would Like To Speak To ...
The Once-Unstoppable Celtics Are Returning Back To Earth
Brad Stevens warned everyone. After the Celtics’ 16-game winning streak was finally snapped earlier this year, he admitted that the impressive run of wins right after the team lost Gordon Hayward was “a little bit of a mirage.” Still, though, Boston was at the top of the Eastern Conference for most ...
The Revamped Cavs Won Again And LeBron James Lost His Voice Again
The new-look Cleveland Cavaliers beat the Oklahoma City Thunder 120-112 on Tuesday, two days after stomping the Celtics in their first game with a new roster, thanks to, apparently, LeBron James yelling instructions at his teammates....

Barstool Radio Host Can't Resist Calling 17-Year-Old Olympian Chloe Kim A "Little Hot Piece Of Ass" [Update] <em></em>
Barstool Radio’s newest Sirius XM talk show, Dialed-In with Dallas Braden, hit a bump in its second episode today when co-host Patrick Connor (who also has a show on KNBR) called 17-year-old snowboarding gold medalist Chloe Kim a “little hot piece of ass.”...
Von Miller Tries To Woo Kirk Cousins To Denver With Cereal And Rainbows
Assuming Washington isn’t crazy enough to franchise him—though no moronic idea should ever be put past a team owned by Dan Snyder—Kirk Cousins appears to be headed to free agency. Von Miller would really like you to know he wants Cousins to sign with the Broncos....
Get Ready For The NBA Tanking Campaign Of A Lifetime
By the time the NBA’s All-Star break usually rolls around, the standings are more or less set. It’s typically obvious which four or so teams will be contending for a championship, and it’s also apparent who will be spending the rest of the year in the toilet, tanking for superior lottery odds and dr...
Adrien Broner Arrested For Sexual Battery At Atlanta Mall
Adrien Broner, who is both troubled and very much a dick, was arrested for sexual battery in an Atlanta shopping mall on Monday. TMZ first reported the news, and jail records show that Broner was booked at Fulton County Jail today....
Boy, The New-Look Cavs Sure Beat The Living Shit Out Of The Celtics
Sunday’s result should not be read as the Celtics are fake or the Cavs are better than the Celtics or the Celtics are doomed in the playoffs, although I dearly wish for all three of those things to be true. But it seems reasonable to say that the Celtics, who’ve had the NBA’s best defense this seaso...
Maybe Now The Cavs Can Just Let LeBron Cook?
The Cavs did well at the trade deadline, shipping off several of their worst defensive players and returning a group of guys who seem better suited to playing alongside LeBron, for however long he’ll be around. LeBron himself said the changes “should be fun,” which probably means nothing but certain...
The Cavs Are Getting Pretty Much Everyone The Fuck Out Of Here<em></em>
Not only have the Cavaliers given Isaiah Thomas and Channing Frye the boot today, but they’re now trading four more players. (Yes, “the Cavaliers” can reasonably be interpreted as “LeBron James.”) Adios to Jae Crowder, Derrick Rose, Iman Shumpert, and Dwyane Wade. There goes a third of the roster....
Report: Cavaliers Get Isaiah Thomas The Fuck Out Of Here<em></em>
After just 15 games as an active member of the Cavaliers, Isaiah Thomas is on his way out of Cleveland. ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski reported this morning that the Cavs were acquiring Jordan Clarkson and Larry Nance from the Lakers, with the Ringer’s Kevin O’Connor first reporting that Isaiah Thomas an...
LeBron Puts Together Goddamn Ridiculous Final 30 Seconds For Cavaliers Win
Tonight’s Timberwolves-Cavaliers game was stupidly fun on several fronts—an NBA record 40 three-pointers, for one thing; a total of 34 lead changes, for another—but the fact that it ended with an insane series of LeBron James plays, each more dazzling than the last, was maybe the most fun of all. ...
Paul George Is Everything The Thunder Need Him To Be
Last night, the Thunder traveled to Oakland and were the best version of themselves, a team that overwhelms and antagonizes the opponent while producing bushels of cool-ass highlights. If you’re into Warriors schadenfreude then you probably relished Draymond Green getting ejected for yelling a whol...
A Tearful Dustin Brown Retires From Match After Back Injury
Germany’s Dustin Brown, the wackiest motherfucker in tennis, was only three points away from winning his first-round match at Montpellier against Nicolas Mahut when a crafty one-handed, backhand passing shot appeared to cause his back to seize up. He took a few steps and then collapsed. Mahut didn’t...
Russell Westbrook Magically Fouled By Floor, Own Feet
At the end of the third quarter of tonight’s Thunder-Warriors game, Russell Westbrook benefitted from a bizarrely bad foul call that was triggered by nothing but tripping over his own two feet, no meaningful contact from Golden State necessary:...

Any asshole can play hockey, but the delightful Minnesotan sport of BROOMBALL is for TRUE ICEBOYS. ...
The Cavs Are In A Very Dark Place
The Cleveland Cavaliers, who stink real bad, lost to the Rockets in embarrassing fashion last night, by a score of 120-88. A 32-point blowout on national TV is about as bad as it gets, and the Cavs gave no indication that they are in any kind of shape to dig themselves out of this hole....
