Watch DeAndre Jordan Pretend To Fart On People
Thanks to The NOC, Clippers center DeAndre Jordan has a prank show on YouTube called "Got 'Em."

Andrew Bynum Now Likely Out Until January
So, the Andrew Bynum era in Philadelphia isn't exactly off to the best start.

Today, the 76ers released an update on Bynum's status, and thi...
Andre Miller Blocked The Shot Of A Guy 15 Years Younger And Eight Inches Taller Than Him
It seems like only yesterday that Andre Miller was leading his Utah Utes in the Final Four, said no one.

Once Upon A Time, The Jets Were Willing To Bench Mark Sanchez
Drew Stanton was a Jet for all of a week. He signed to be the backup to Mark Sanchez, but other events intervened. Peyton Manning decided on the Broncos, so Tim Tebow became expendable. The Jets traded for Tebow, at a not-insignificant cost in both draft pick and money, and Stanton was the odd man o...

The Seattle Sounders Will Let Fans Vote On Whether The GM Gets To Stick Around
Because Major League Soccer is Major League Soccer, they have to go to greater lengths to enter the national consciousness. Sometimes that ends up ugly: recall that young lady who sang the anthem. But sometimes it's glorious! Remember when MLS mailed us a big box of premade cheesesteaks? Glorious me...

Tim Keown's Story On Joe Mauer Wants Minnesota To Get Bent
You're probably used to this sort of subtle cudgel being twirled at cities like New York and Boston, which tend to chew through their heroes just as quickly as they can exalt them. But Tim Keown's piece in the current issue of ESPN The Pulp-Based Periodical is one of the rare stories that quietly ri...
Kill ’Em All. <em>Dredd</em>, Reviewed.
Even a truly morally reprehensible, super-violent movie has its place in the culture. I'm not talking about a film like Dark Knight Rises, which in the wake of the Aurora shootings was the subject of our most recent cultural spasm over Hollywood violence. That was actually a thoughtful, artistic com...
Which Rookie Quarterback Had The Most Poise After His Second Start?
Last week, Andrew Luck of the Indianapolis Colts showed the most poise out of all the rookie quarterbacks who played in Week 1, according to people who wrote about him.

How To Make A Salad That Doesn't Suck: A Guide For The Nutritionally Unvirtuous
Even the more willing salad-eaters among us tend to think of salad as the culinary equivalent of floss, i.e. as a depressing incarnation of grim, miserable healthfulness wagging a finger of admonishment from the most boring sector of the table. At family functions, you scoop some onto your plate wit...
Which Rookie Quarterback Had The Most Poise After His First Start?
Mark Sanchez was the king of "poise" during his rookie season in 2009. That year, you'd have been hard-pressed to find any writers using any other word to describe him (seriously, you would).
