Baker Mayfield Is Still Taking Shots At Hue Jackson

You would think having the worst head coaching record with a team in the entire history of the NFL would have been enough punishment—or enough of an indictment. And if not, maybe getting unceremoniously fired midseason might have been sufficient. But no, not only does Hue Jackson have to live with t...

The Browns Sure Do Not Appear To Miss Hue Jackson Very Much

The Browns beat the shit out of the Bengals Sunday afternoon. It was Cleveland’s first road win since Week 5 of the 2015 season, and the first time a Browns quarterback won consecutive starts since 2014. And how lovely that former Browns head coach Hue Jackson could be in attendance to watch this pr...

Browns Blockers Help David Njoku Crowd-Surf Into The End Zone

Baker Mayfield has been exposing the Bengals’ defense with every drop back that’s been called for him today. In just one half he’s thrown for almost 250 yards and three touchdowns.

Report: Condoleezza Rice On Browns' Wish List To Interview For Head Coach [Update]

Report: Draymond Green's Suspension Came After He Told Kevin Durant The Warriors Didn't Need Him

You Wouldn't Want To Work With Draymond Green, Either

They have been historically great for years and are, when at their unholy apex, probably the most beautiful and terrifying basketball machine ever constructed, but the Golden State Warriors are kind of a corny bunch of dudes. This is nothing on them, really: it’s not their job to be interesting, or ...

Huffy, Dopey Cy Young Voter Hangs Up On Incredibly Chill Old Radio Host<em></em>

I learned something really interesting today, which is that Steve Somers is still alive. You people out there probably know New York’s flagship sports talk radio station WFAN mainly because of comic book hater and sugar-free mafia cosplayer Mike Francesa. Ah, but when I was growing up, there was an ...

Le’Veon Bell officially ended his tenure with the Pittsburgh Steelers when he didn’t report to the team by yesterday’s 4:00 p.m. deadline.

Le'Veon Bell Will Sit Out The Season. Now What?

Le’Veon Bell’s 4 p.m. deadline to report to the Steelers came and went, which means Bell cannot play at all during the 2018 season.

Despite That Gruesome Ankle Injury, Caris LeVert Might Return This Season

Caris LeVert, who’d been enjoying a fantastic third season with the Nets, went down with a horrid ankle injury in last night’s loss to the Timberwolves. He was taken off the floor in a stretcher; his teammates were openly weeping. Today, an evaluation from team orthopedist Dr. Martin O’Malley held e...

Caris LeVert Taken Off On Stretcher After Seriously Fucking Up His Leg

Brooklyn Nets small forward Caris LeVert, the leading scorer on one of the sneaky-fun teams in the NBA this year, likely just saw his season come to an end.

Nick Chubb Ran All Over The Falcons For The Longest Play From Scrimmage Of The Season

The Browns are pummeling the Falcons defense this afternoon, and one of the main culprits has been Cleveland running back Nick Chubb.

James Conner Is Making It Easy For The Steelers To Wait Out Le'Veon Bell

Le’Veon Bell’s refusal to sign his franchise tender has been an attempt to leverage his value to the Steelers’ offense. Bell is a running back skilled at catching passes and running routes, and he’s been a workhorse for a perennial playoff team with one of the NFL’s most efficient units. As such, Be...
