Neymar Says Getting Pelted With Baguettes Did Not Make Him Lose His Cool

120 Morons Arrested After Soccer Hooligans Brawl With Police In Belgium

Sebastian Giovinco Celebrates By Finishing Off Beer Thrown On Field By Fan<em></em>

Ah, the Fall Classic. Overcoats and mittens and brisk walks through parks filled with trees showing off their fall colors. It’s World Series time, baby, and the forecast predicts a high of 101 degrees tomorrow in Los Angeles. Seems totally reasonable. Doesn’t seem at all like we’ve fucked up the pla...
Everton Fire Ronald Koeman, Who Really Fucked This Up
There are a few easy ways to define the worst team in the Premier League. One of them is to find the team with the least amount of talent. Another is to find the team most likely to get relegated.

Dan Fouts Helpfully Identifies Idiot On The Field
With Chicago up on Carolina 17-3 late in the fourth quarter today, an impending Bears win faced a slight delay when, just before a Panthers punt, an idiot ran out onto the field.

The Columbus <em></em>Fiasco Shows That MLS Is No Different
Earlier this week, Anthony Precourt, the San Francisco-based owner of the Columbus Crew, announced that he would pick up stakes and move the team to Austin unless the city bought him a shiny new downtown stadium.
