<i>Lady Bird</i> Is As Honest As Teen Movies Get<em></em>
What do you remember about growing up? Was your tenure in high school characterized by grandiose, dramatic blowups and public betrayals, the sort you’ll see in, say, Riverdale?

<i>The Killing Of A Sacred Deer</i> Is As Scary As Anything You'll Ever See<em></em>
The scariest movie in theaters this Halloween season isn’t the one where a college kid relives the night she was brutally murdered over and over, nor is it the one in which a homicidal maniac with a god complex designs elaborate games in order to torture and kill his victims, nor is it the movie abo...
Manchester United Will Not Go Away Quietly
First, you have a club like Manchester United, an impossibly rich and successful one that very recently was the true hegemon of English soccer but as of late has endured more humiliation than glory.

Hawaii Assistant Coach Breaks Wrist While Celebrating Blocked Field Goal
Hawaii blocked three field goals in their win against Western Carolina last weekend.

Manchester United Have That Old Swagger Back
Last year, Manchester United were a team full of hesitant superstars who punched below their weight and only redeemed a shoddy sixth-place finish by winning the Europa League.

North Carolina Isn't Ready For This, But The GOP Was
Monday night in Durham, well-intentioned protestors tore a testament to the Confederacy down from its perch, sending it tumbling 15 feet to feebly fold over. It was glorious, if long overdue.

Lamar Jackson, the 2016 Heisman winner who, for a while, appeared to be the Second Coming, is heading into the fall with the typical pressure being applied to college football’s reigning MVP—he’ll be tasked with somehow improving his draft stock, bettering a team that fell apart down the stretch, an...
Jersey Worn By Aaron Judge In His MLB Debut Sells For $157,000
Aaron Judge is a dong-mashing hero whose feats of dinger-smokage have come to define the 2017 baseball season, and also a Yankee, and so authentic Aaron Judge memorabilia is already sort of a big deal.

Lightning Take The Cowards' Way Out On Tampa Confederate Monument
There are two schools of thought on asking sports teams to weigh in on political issues. On the one hand, who cares: They’re just sports teams. But on the other hand, it’s really not that hard to give a bit of public support for basic decency. That’s why the Tampa Bay Lightning come off looking pret...
