Jarvis Landry Spends 98 Seconds Cursing Out His Fellow Browns Receivers

Jose Ramirez Is Right On Mike Trout's Heels

The Browns Have Turned Yet Another First-Round Pick Into A Bag Of Shit
American sports are set up to all but guarantee that a franchise as putrid as the Cleveland Browns cannot remain putrid for eternity. All those losing seasons just add up to higher first-round draft picks, which should eventually add up to winning seasons. It take some real work to waste free ticket...

Draymond Green Issues Non-Denial Denial Of Tristan Thompson Fight, Drags Cleveland

Reports: J.R. Smith Investigated For Chucking A Dude's Phone Outside A Bar
J.R. Smith doesn’t seem to have let fucking up the NBA Finals for LeBron stop him from enjoying his summer.

At an exclusive, post-ESPYs party hosted by LeBron James, Cavs big man Tristan Thompson and Warriors agitator Draymond Green reportedly got into a bit of a kerfuffle, which is not a very surprising thing to hear given how these two treated each other on the court during the NBA Finals. Bossip was th...

Why Your Team Sucks 2018: Cleveland Browns<em></em>

Most Embarrassing NFL Team Now Has Most Embarrassing Slogan
It’s never good to be a sports franchise that is so synonymous with failure that the prospect of brighter days ahead seems all but unimaginable. That ship sailed and sunk for the Cleveland Browns a long time ago, but now they seem to be attempting to reach an even more shameful depth. It’s one thing...

The Cavaliers Are Kevin Love's Team Now
With the Cavaliers’ title hopes whisked away by the hand of LeBron James, the Cavs were presented with an easy opportunity to clear the roster and start over. That would have started with them trading Kevin Love, the last remaining star on the team, who had one year left on his deal. But trade desti...

Josh Gordon Will Miss The Start Of Training Camp For Unclear Reasons
Browns wide receiver Josh Gordon, who has spent the majority of his NFL career suspended for violating the league’s substance abuse policy, looked all set to start the 2018 season with a clean slate.

The Indians Paid A Lot For Their New Bullpen, But They Pretty Much Had To Do It
The Cleveland Indians, despite owning only the sixth-best record in the American League, have basically already clinched their spot in the playoffs, and are the only AL team that doesn’t have to worry about the wild card play-in game. Thanks to the putrid AL Central and its one (1) team with a recor...

Collin Sexton's Summer League Crunch Time Defense Is Maybe Too Intense
Josh Hart and Collin Sexton had what looks like a decent duel in the semifinals of the NBA Summer League tournament last night.

Indians Cede Winning Run To Yankees On Delightful Little League Homer

Lazy Baseball Nicknames Helped The Reds Beat The Indians
The Indians suffered a pretty humiliating loss to the Reds Tuesday night, surrendering seven runs in the ninth inning for a 7-4 defeat. The fatal blow came from Joey Votto, who plated three runs with a bases-loaded double against newly entered right-handed reliever Dan Otero....

Dan Gilbert Wrote LeBron James A Goodbye Letter, And It's Not Insane This Time
A lot has changed in the eight(!) years since LeBron James left the Cavaliers for the first time. The huge production of the The Decision was replaced with a grammatically suspect tweet. Cleveland has a championship. And Cavs owner Dan Gilbert, it seems, has grown out of Comic Sans....

LeBronWatch: My SUPER CREDIBLE SOURCES Say He’s Going To L.A.
Are you ready for breaking LeBron Watch news that will absolutely BLOW YOUR NUTS OFF UNLESS YOU HAVE ALREADY WISELY FIGURED OUT THAT THINGS WERE ALREADY HEADED THIS WAY?

LeBronWatch: LeBron Hunkers Down In "Decision Cave" In The Caribbean
LeBron James deposited the Cavaliers (and probably the Rockets) in the trash can this morning and will become an unrestricted free agent, so expect LeBronWatch comes to a frenzied, frothy climax over the next few days. Leave it to the very frothiest, ESPN’s Brian Windhorst, to report that LeBron Ja...

Baker Mayfield Turns Colin Cowherd Into A Punching Bag
Cleveland Browns draft pick Baker Mayfield, who will have some kind of documentary series air on Fox next month, has frequently been criticized by rat boy Colin Cowherd. That part in between the commas is presumably why Mayfield appeared today on The Herd, where he handed Cowherd’s ass to him when t...
