The Cavaliers' Mascot Had To Go To The Hospital Because David West Punched Him In The Eye
It's all fun and games until an NBA player lands a punch that sends a man in a giant dog costume to the hospital.

If you get a chance to pick up last week's Sports Illustrated issue without gagging at the cover, it's worth flipping through to Walter Iooss Jr.'s career retrospective.

Revisiting The Great LeBron James Cocksucker Debate
here's a decent chance that at some point in the past 24 hours — perhaps when he did a little shimmy on the floor after drawing a late offensive foul, or when he began yapping demonstratively at the Less Than Zero extras in the stands, or when he passive-aggressively referred to Derrick Rose as "MVP...
