This Is The Most Important Passage In Ta-Nehisi Coates's New Book
Last Tuesday, The Atlantic’s Ta-Nehisi Coates dropped his second book, Between the World and Me, to nigh-unanimous critical acclaim.

Bryce Harper Doesn't Think Zack Greinke Is All That Impressive
Dodgers starter Zack Greinke is on a hell of a roll right now, having not allowed an earned run in his last 43 and two-thirds innings. He extended his streak of scoreless innings—the most since Orel Hersheiser pitched 59 straight shutout frames in 1988—with a dominant outing against the Nationals ye...
Movies About Male Strippers, Ranked
If there’s one thing that makes me sad for heterosexual men, it’s that so many of them haven’t seen Magic Mike. They assumed they’d be in for nonstop tight close-ups of Spandex-packaged junk, exposure to unrealistically chiseled and waxed male bodies, and barely plotted sexploitation aimed at the ga...

You Didn't Kill Amy Winehouse, But You Didn't Save Her, Either
The cool thing about posthumous tragic-rock-star documentaries is the fresh insight from old friends and still-smitten fans and sheepish surviving accomplices, the raw intimacy of the childhood home movies and illicit backstage footage, the cheesy vintage TV appearances, the nerd arcana, and most of...
Giants Attempt Bryce Harper Pickoff Using The Center Fielder

Report: The Hornets Passed Up A Huge Haul To Draft Frank Kaminsky
Last night’s NBA draft didn’t feature nearly as many exciting trades as we’ve grown accustomed to, which is kind of a bummer. It looks like we can place a lot of the blame on the Charlotte Hornets, who reportedly nixed a big trade because they didn’t want to miss out on Frank Kaminsky....
Amy Poehler And Seth Meyers Burn <i>SI</i> Writer Who Dislikes Women's Sports
On Monday, Sports Illustrated writer Andy Benoit sent a dumb tweet in which he expressed his disdain for all women’s sports, including the Women’s World Cup.

<i>Inside Out </i>Is The Weepiest Pixar Movie Yet
1. Considering how many Pixar films seem designed solely to trigger your tear ducts, it’s fitting that the studio has finally made a film that is specifically about sadness. Inside Out is full of the bright colors and wacky characters and madcap hijinks you’ve come to expect, but it’s ultimately a m...
Dodgers Win On Walk-Off Balk
The Dodgers have struggled to score runs, to the point where manager Don Mattingly called a team meeting before last night’s series finale against Texas. Heading to the ninth in a scoreless tie was not what he had in mind. But then, no one ever plans for a two-out, game-winning balk....
Bryce Harper Leaves Game After Suffering Apparent Knee Injury [UPDATE]
Nationals slugger Bryce Harper left tonight’s game against the Rays after suffering what appears to be a knee injury in the sixth inning while attempting to make a throw home.
