Ja Morant Is For Real
When a great player’s hype is dependent on masochists who regularly subject themselves to Ohio Valley Conference basketball, it’s not often that they actually shine on the national stage that March Madness provides. But Ja Morant showed up against fifth-seeded Marquette ready to make a splash with v...

Hockey East Won't Discipline Anybody For Racist Remark Towards Providence Player
Hockey East’s investigation into an unspecifed racist comment that was made towards Providence forward Vimal Sukumaran during a game last Friday against Boston College has ended in a very unsatisfying way, as the conference says that, despite the “inappropriate language” used against Sukumaran, they...

Murray State Vs. Marquette Should Be Sick As Hell
Thank goodness Murray State made it into the NCAA Tournament, because before last Saturday it seemed worryingly possible that Ja Morant and his Racers might be hanging out in the NIT this postseason. But after finishing as OVC regular-season co-champions with Belmont and then winning their conferenc...

College Basketball Player Sets Up Game-Winner With The Classic Off-The-Butt Play
The Eastern Washington Eagles are headed to their first Big Sky championship game in over 30 years thanks to a clever play involving a butt. Trailing by a point with 4.6 seconds left in Wednesday’s semifinal against two-seed Northern Colorado, freshman point guard Jessica McDowell-White had to inbou...

Just Try To Stop Markus Howard
The most remarkable aspect of 2019’s most remarkable college basketball player is his age: Markus Howard just turned 20 years old. The Marquette junior guard is one of the youngest players in his class, yet the 5-foot-11 Howard has spent this revelatory season torching all comers....

Report: Nick Foles Expected To Bring His Talents And Enormous Dong To Jacksonville
The Jacksonville Jaguars are working hard to move on from the limp efforts of Blake Bortles and will reportedly sign Nick Foles and his giant schlong once free agency opens up on March 13.

Nick Foles And His Dong Are Now Free To Go Elsewhere
Eagles general manager Howie Roseman made no attempt to yank anyone’s chain during his presser today at the NFL combine in Indianapolis: Nick Foles will not be given the franchise tag, which means Nick Foles and his reportedly gigantic hog will hit free agency. There was nothing soft about Foles’s s...

Report: Southern Miss Coach Who Wanted To Hire Art Briles Also Tried To Add A Player Accused Of Two Knifepoint Rapes
Southern Miss head football coach Jay Hopson firmly disagreed with his university’s decision this week not to hire disgraced former Baylor coach Art Briles, saying that Briles “deserves a second chance” and noting that he “committed no crime.” Thursday The Athletic’s Nicole Auerbach reported a depre...

Southern Miss Coach Defends Interviewing Art Briles By Saying It'd Be His Job To Report Rape Allegations Anyway<em></em>
Since getting fired in May 2016, disgraced former Baylor coach Art Briles has sought employment with the Houston Cougars, Lane Kiffin’s Florida Atlanta Owls, and the CFL’s Hamilton Tiger-Cats.

Carson Wentz's Teammates Either Love Him Or Despise Him
It’s the day after the conference championship games and it is unfortunately time to talk about the Eagles. This is because, according to a new report from Philly Voice, the Eagles really hate franchise quarterback Carson Wentz. But also, according to a few tweets from Wentz’s teammates, everyone lo...

The Saints' Game-Changing Fake Punt Depended On Fletcher Cox's Indifference
Last weekend’s playoff game between the Saints and Eagles turned when the Saints successfully ran a fake punt while down 14-0 in the second quarter. They went on to end that extended drive with a touchdown, and eventually won the game 20-14. Thanks to a new clip released by the NFL Network, we know ...

A Miracle Just Slipped Through The Eagles' Hands
Alshon Jeffery is going to be the scapegoat only because every close game seems to end up with one—something to do with human psychology, I suppose. Yes, he let the ball go through his hands for a game-sealing interception in the Saints’ 20-14 playoff win. But there are plenty of other things to bla...

It's "Big Dick Nick"
“His throwing motion is a languid shrug, and his passes carve loopy, floaty arcs that seem certain to be intercepted until they settle softly into his receivers’ hands. On the field, he has no obvious rare athletic endowments that explain his success; only in the locker room, it is said by his teamm...

Philadelphia Eagles Twitter Account Run By Shameless Biter
One of the best subplots of the NFL season was the rise of Twitter user @CableThanos_, a Seahawks fan who earned himself some internet fame by producing charmingly deranged hype videos throughout Seattle’s run to the playoffs. Now, unfortunately, he has become the victim of shameless biting....

Save Yourself The Embarrassment And Stop Guarding Markus Howard
It was a miracle of a shot from Marquette’s Sam Hauser that sent the 21st-ranked Golden Eagles’ game against Creighton into overtime on Wednesday night. But it was the guy who inbounded and assisted on that dramatic buzzer-beater who utterly dominated the proceedings, and who did the most to get Mar...

Marquette's Markus Howard Will Shoot Over Anyone, From Anywhere
Marquette’s 70-52 win over Xavier on Sunday wasn’t especially exciting, since the Golden Eagles never trailed and spent most of the second half up by double digits. But if there was a moment when a struggling Xavier team looked to have a glimmer of hope, it was with about eight minutes to go in the ...

The Spanish Call Of Cody Parkey's Double-Doink Is Very, Very Good
Rickie Ricardo is the Spanish radio play-by-play guy for the Eagles (and, weirdly, the Yankees). He was in fine form Sunday evening, as Philly survived and advanced on a missed field goal by Cody Parkey. “I almost had a heart attack,” Ricardo tweeted of Parkey’s kick that banged off the upright, the...
