LeBron James On Racist Graffiti At His House: "No Matter How Famous You Are...Being Black In America Is Tough"
Police are investigating a racial slur spray painted this morning on the front gate of a Los Angeles house owned by LeBron James, who prepares for tomorrow’s Game 1 of the NBA Finals. At his press conference this afternoon, James addressed the incident for the first time....
Wolfsburg Make John Brooks The Most Expensive American Player In History
This summer’s transfer window isn’t even officially open yet and we’re already seeing some crazy, record-breaking fees being thrown about. Like Paul Pogba a year ago, the source of the (arguably) biggest, most (relatively) eye-popping fee that (not quite) everyone is talking about is the record-smas...
LeBron James Took Care Of Business
The Cavaliers had zero interest in prolonging what’s seemed to be inevitable since Game 1 here, if not since Game 1 of the regular season. They were going to win the Eastern Conference Finals, and they didn’t want to have to go back to Cleveland to do it—and no one seemed to feel that more strongly ...
Just Like The First-Round Pick He Traded For Trent Richardson, Ryan Grigson Is Going To The Browns
Ryan Grigson finally left the Indianapolis Colts in January after five seasons as the team’s GM. He picked Andrew Luck and T.Y. Hilton but the team stalled out under his guidance and he utterly failed to build anything close to a suitable offensive line to protect his MVP-level quarterback. Jim Irsa...
Brock Osweiler Says There's Proof That He Doesn't Suck
Maybe Brock Osweiler will be a better quarterback for the Browns. It’s possible that the Texans’ offensive scheme didn’t make the most of his abilities, which led him to throw 15 touchdowns against 16 picks and complete 59 percent of his 510 pass attempts. (This is admittedly an incredibly generous ...
LeBron, NOOOOO
In the third quarter of Game 4 of the Eastern Conference Finals, Kevin Love heaved an incredible outlet pass the length of the court to a waiting LeBron James, who reared back for dunk, ready to shatter the backboard, and then doinged it off the rim....
Kevin Love Threw A Perfect Touchdown Pass
Hi, did you watch Game 3? We all definitely did. I’m sure you did too. So there’s no need for you to watch these replays of Kevin Love’s full-court outlet pass to LeBron James, which you are totally not seeing for the first time. (And don’t sleep on James’s box-out of Marcus Smart; Smart had no opti...
The Cavaliers Brought Total Ruination Upon The Celtics
The Cavaliers scored the first six points of last night’s Game 2 of the Eastern Conference Finals. Things only got much, much, much worse for the Celtics. By the end of the first quarter, the game had all the markings of a massacre; by the end of the second, it was historic. LeBron James was his bes...
J.R. Smith Finishes Off Cavs' Historic <em></em>First-Half Blowout With Incredible Buzzer-Beater
Isaiah Thomas insisted yesterday that the Cavs are “not the Monstars.” A 72-31 first half decapitation sure would seem to disagree with his assessment. LeBron James was transparently fucking around, playing center for long stretches and ripping through the Celtics like cheap toilet paper for 22 poin...
I'm Still Laughing At That LeBron James Performance
It didn’t take long for LeBron James to demonstrate just how little of a chance the Boston Celtics have at advancing to the NBA Finals. After getting his first two buckets of the night by blowing right by Jae Crowder—exactly the kind of brawny forward people have spent years tricking themselves into...
LeBron And The Cavs Broke The Celtics
Somehow, Marcus Smart, Kelly Olynyk, and Avery Bradley were not enough to stop the Cleveland Cavaliers or even slow them down very much. The final score was not that imposing, as the Cavs won just 117-104, but Cleveland emotionally disemboweled the Celtics early and turned the entire second half int...
Seems Like LeBron Is Ready For The Finals
LeBron James spent the first half of Game 1 destroying the Celtics. He was the best player on the court to such a comical degree, and watching him and the Cavs roll through the weak-ass Celtics was like watching an older sibling pull the “Stop hitting yourself!” routine. LeBron went for 23 points, f...
State's Attorney Dismisses Battery Charge Against Browns Draftee Caleb Brantley
Shortly before the NFL draft, former Florida defensive lineman and then-prospect Caleb Brantley was charged with misdemeanor battery after he allegedly struck a woman in the face. A police report stated that Brantley knocked the women unconscious and may have dislodged a tooth, supposedly in retalia...
Mike Brown Almost Got Arrested Trying To Follow The Spurs Motorcade Before Game 2
Before the Warriors began their unholy beatdown of the San Antonio Spurs, acting Warriors coach Mike Brown relayed the story of how he almost got arrested following the Spurs bus into the Warriors arena. It’s very good, and involves Brown actively messing with the cops (who didn’t care that he was t...
The Wizards' Bench Won Somebody A Spot In The Eastern Conference Finals
I guess if you want to pin the outcome of last night’s Game 7 on somebody—somebody other than repulsive unconscious three-bombing Canuck gorilla Kelly Olynyk—you can pin it on Scott Brooks and Ernie Grunfeld....
Report: Beth Mowins To Call NFL Game For ESPN
ESPN’s Beth Mowins is slated to become the first woman in 30 years to handle play-by-play duties during a regular-season NFL broadcast, according to Sports Illustrated’s Richard Deitsch....
Myles Garrett Is Realistic About The State Of The Browns: "I Can't Be A Savior"
Myles Garrett has been a member of the Cleveland Browns for all of two weeks, and he’s already adopted the ethos of the franchise pretty well. In an interview with NFL.com yesterday, the No. 1 draft pick didn’t make any of the bold proclamations of turning the team around or guaranteed success that ...
Behold, The Most Blatant Handball Of The Year
Chelsea need to beat West Brom this afternoon to clinch the Premier League, but if Jonny Evans keeps this up, forget it. Late in the first half, Evans escaped Cesc Febregas’s pressure with a straight-up karate chop on the ball and he got away with it. ...
Open Up, Motherfucker, Bear's Here
According to local Hartford, Conn., news anchor Dennis House, this picture was sent to him by an Avon resident named Bob Belfiore, whose neighbor was confronted by a hungry black bear while she was making brownies....
ESPN Cleveland Radio Personality Fired After Saying Browns Players Were On Drugs
Yesterday, ESPN 850 Cleveland contributor Sabrina Parr went on daily radio program The Really Big Show and delivered a blistering take about how the Browns’ newly drafted safety Jabrill Peppers was going to fail because he was “on the lean and the molly.” Parr was challenged on her claims by her co-...
