Monty Williams Was There For Ryan Anderson After Girlfriend's Suicide
Sports Illustrated's Chris Ballard has a devastating piece on Pelicans forward Ryan Anderson, who in August 2013 was the one to discover his girlfriend Gia Allemand in her New Orleans home, hanging by her neck from a vacuum-cleaner cord.

Luis Suárez, On Chronic Biting: At Least I Never Bit Anyone's Ear Off!
You have to give it to Luis Suárez for at least one thing: the guy is not afraid to be honest, even if it makes him sound like a crazy man defending his own sanity. Judging from some excerpts in Sport from his new autobiography, the book is nowhere near the typical athlete's mid-career hagiography....

15-Year-Old Wonderkid Added To Video Game After Dad's Tweeted Permission
The real point of career modes in soccer video games is to snatch up a grip of the world's most hyped youngsters and slowly build a juggernaut.

Here's Seattle's Michael Bennett Doing The Ravishing Rick Rude Taunt
Michael Bennett's sack of Eli Manning in the fourth quarter of yesterday's game, right in the middle of the Giants' collapse during the late third and early fourth, was enough to land him in the top 25 defensive ends for the week.

Ole Miss's Athletics Director Is A Smarmy Fuck
Ole Miss athletics director Ross Bjork has written a letter to the editor of the Opelika-Auburn News, which caught a lot of shit this week for running a photo of Ole Miss receiver Laquon Treadwell suffering a season-ending injury during Saturday's game against Auburn on its front page.

Anthony Davis Comes Out Of Nowhere For The Putback Dunk
Welcome to the latest edition of Anthony Davis Does Something You've Never Seen Before.

Anthony Davis Is A Goddamn Demon
Anthony Davis is going to own the league sooner rather than later, because Anthony Davis is a shot-devouring, rebound-snatching, dunking monster who is now armed with a solid mid-range jumper and respectable handles. Dunks and smooth jumpers and blocks are great, but if you really want to see what m...

Mike Dussault, also known as @PatsPropaganda, looked through 160 games since 2003 and tracked the types of hoodies worn by Bill Belichick to determine which one yielded the best record. He also specified hoodies with and without sleeves cut off. We thank him for his hard work....

Bill Belichick Is Fed Up With All These Wrong-Ass Meteorologists

Bill Belichick Likely To Study Tape Of His Slaying Of Reporter
We've gone over this before, but Bill Belichick's adept at letting reporters draw out their questions before he shuts them down with curt answers. (It's entertaining, if your job isn't covering the Patriots.) Naturally, the media wanted to talk about Peyton Manning vs. the Patriots today, and Belich...

Anthony Davis Still Improving Should Terrify Opponents
LeBron James's return to Cleveland was the biggest story of the 2014 NBA offseason, but in the not-so-distant future we may be referring to it instead as the summer of Anthony Davis.

You Get Three Questions Before Bill Belichick Changes The Subject
On Tuesday, Darrelle Revis was late to work, so Bill Belichick sent him home—or at least held him out of practice. It wasn't exactly clear. In his first time meeting with the media since then, Belichick was not about to make things any clearer....
