Report: Baylor Regents Say Art Briles Failed To Report An Alleged Gang Rape
In May, Baylor released a report on law firm Pepper Hamilton’s investigation into since-departed head coach Art Briles and the sexual-assault scandal at the university’s football program. The strange thing was that its report wasn’t actually a report; instead, it was a brief “finding of facts” that ...
Anthony Weiner's Dong Tipped The FBI Off About New Clinton Emails
The FBI announced this morning that they plan to investigate a new batch of emails from Hillary Clinton, after finding them in “connection with an unrelated case.” That unrelated case? Disgraced horny former congressman Anthony Weiner sending dong shots to a 15-year-old....
<i>Person Of Interest</i> Was Anti-Prestige TV And Too Smart For Primetime
First, let me tell you what Person of Interest is. Person of Interest is the inverse of Game of Thrones. For every shock death from the HBO’s version of George R.R. Martin’s book series, it had Kevin Chapman getting maced by a model and beaten up with a handbag. For every Game of Thrones setpiece th...
The Eagles' Relentless Defense Is Winning With A Scheme From The Bad Old Days
Carson Wentz’s quick acclimation to the NFL is widely credited for the Eagles’ 4-2 start. Wentz has indeed been excellent. But Philly’s defense—and especially its defensive line—has been fantastic through six games, and it deserves its due. Through seven weeks, the Eagles lead the league in DVOA and...
A Very Informative And Timely 2016-17 NBA Season, Uh, Preview
Holy smokes, the NBA season is here! Good thing I started working hard and diligently on this season preview a long time ago, and definitely not on Tuesday afternoon, in the back of a rental car on the way to the airport....

Earlier today, the Trump campaign published a press release with photos from Ivanka’s big day campaigning for her father in South Florida. But there’s allegedly another Trump daughter in there, too. Can you spot the Tiffany Trump?...
Boy, <i>Thursday Night Football</i> Is The Best, Isn't It?
We are blessed by the NFL’s benevolence in its grace to provide us the finest professional football every Thursday night. We aren’t worthy of witnessing the incredible talents of the Jacksonville Jaguars weekly—let alone in such a showcase as Thursday Night Football....

Former Penn State assistant coach Mike McQueary was one of the key witnesses in the prosecution of Jerry Sandusky.

Ronaldo On His Biggest Influence (Himself), His Biggest Inspiration (Himself), And How He Craves The Hate
Man, Cristiano Ronaldo sure does love him some Cristiano Ronaldo. From representations of his well-chiseled body to his facially-imprecise but amply-bedicked statue, to a glorified home movie disguised as a feature film, and even to his own, apparently delicious crotch, it’s long been evident that R...
Smash Mouth Love Trent Baalke, Hate Chip Kelly
Smash Mouth—the house band from hit 2001 film Shrek—are prominent, prolific Twitter users who are unafraid to go to the mattresses to correct the record if you spread falsehoods online. The San Jose, Calif. natives are also, as it turns out, big 49ers fans who count themselves among the ever-dwindli...
Barcelona Go To The Mattresses Against La Liga Over Bottle-Throwing Incident
This weekend, as you may have heard, some shit-brained Valencia fan threw a bottle at some Barcelona players because he was mad they beat his team. As you also might’ve learned, this was apparently mostly the players’ fault, at least according to such important and powerful figures in Spanish soccer...
Manchester United Avoid Humiliation By Winning A Worthless Manchester Derby
The most interesting part of yesterday’s match between Manchesters United and City—it’s an insult to the proud tradition of the Manchester Derby to use that hallowed moniker when describing an early round match in the most garbage cup competition in Europe, the League Cup—came an hour before the mat...
Trump Supporter Wrong
A political reporter for a national news outlet has located a supporter of Donald Trump’s presidential campaign who is factually wrong....
Anthony Davis Will Show No Mercy
The Pelicans were supposed to be last year’s surprise Western Conference playoff debutante, but instead, injuries and incompetence stripped them of their chance and they pooped out an utterly forgettable 30-win season. Worst of all, Anthony Davis stagnated, got shut down in March with an injury, and...

Julian Green Scores First Competitive Goal For Bayern Munich, Rest Of Europe Trembles In Fear
The biggest story of the soccer season for American soccer fans has been the ascendance of the Wonderteen Christian Pulisic from Dortmund bench guy to potential Lionel Messi understudy, so it’s been easy to forget that there’s another young American on an elite Bundesliga club. Julian Green, the USM...
Trump Ally Alex Jones: I'm Not Anti-Semitic, It's Just That The Jews Control Everything
You see, it’s not that Alex Jones—whom Donald Trump has previously called a “nice guy” with an “amazing” reputation—hates the Jews. It’s just that he knows how how devious and money-hungry they really are. And also that they control the Ubers....
Trump Eventually Remembers Daughter<em></em>
As Donald Trump took some time off from the campaign trail to unveil his brand new D.C. hotel, he took a moment to bring his much beloved children on stage at the inaugural press conference, so he could show them off to the world. Tiffany Trump was also in attendance. ...
