Maybe Not The Best Time To Dap Up Your Friend, J.R. Smith
Jason Terry is a nice guy and a great shooter. Who isn’t amused by his insane sock habits and propensity for bold tattoos? I’d love to chat with him.

It Doesn't Matter Who The Browns' Quarterback Is
Let’s run it down. The Browns are 0-10 for the first time in franchise history. They’ve dropped 13 in a row, the longest losing streak in franchise history.

The Browns Are Just A Big Fuckin' Bummer

Browns Player's Startling Guarantee: We Will Win A Game Sometime This Season
It’s been common to hear that the Browns aren’t as bad as their record indicates, and that’s true. They’ve been in a number of games until late, and they’ve had major injuries and a lot of bad breaks, and anyway, no one could be as bad as the Browns’ record indicates.

So Where Does This Leave The Indians?
