The Cool Pope Is Not Down With Texting At The Dinner Table
Pope Francis is cool with lots of things: He’s down with the gays, he’s (marginally) more chill about abortion, and he would welcome aliens from outer space with open arms. He’s reasonable and real, and down with the kids. But if there’s one thing he will not stand, it’s using your flippin’ smartph...
Watch High School Freshman Karl-Anthony Towns Interview Kevin Durant, His "Basketball Idol"
It’s only taken eight games for Timberwolves rookie Karl-Anthony Towns to establish himself as one of the dopest young players in the league—seriously, go watch some KAT highlights right now if you haven’t seen him play yet; he’s extremely good—but not that long ago he was just a baby-faced teen ido...
Rex Ryan Was Fuckin' Pumped About Beating The Jets, And That's Just Fine
Rex Ryan just can’t help himself.

<i>Skin Trade </i>Lets<i> </i>Dolph Lundgren Cook, And For A Dumb Action Flick, That's Enough
Dolph Lundgren has had a couple of cups of coffee with the American pop-cultural psyche: haughtily sneering over Apollo Creed’s death in Rocky IV, wearing a necklace of severed ears in Universal Soldier, that sort of thing.

Here's Ray Lewis Rapping, Sort Of, For Some Reason
Ray Lewis has dabbled in rap music before, but now he’s set his sights beyond the motivational football rap genre. Lewis has moved on to the Real Shit, one might say, and he’s got bars to spit about women and, uh, men, and like, uh, honoring women? I dunno, man, just listen:...
Oh Shit! Maybe Krapsnaps Bazingas Is A Beast?
When was the last time a Knicks lottery pick inspired as much excitement as Latvian giant Krapsnaps Bazingas, this past summer’s fourth overall pick? Can you recall? I can’t.

Report: George Karl Could Lose His Job By The End Of The Week

Minnesota Wild's Thomas Vanek Torches Paul Postma For A Filthy Goal
Thomas Vanek’s two goals aided the Minnesota Wild in Tuesday night’s 5-3 win over the Jets, but this undressing of Winnipeg defenseman Paul Postma should’ve counted for five points....
<i>Fargo </i>Is The Best Show On TV Because It's The Coolest, Weirdest Place On TV
The second season of FX’s anthology series Fargo is such a self-evidently excellent show—it’s the best thing on TV right now, for my money—that it’s hard to describe just how good it is.
