Carlos Tevez had about 40 million reasons to love his cushy, high-paid life with Chinese Super League club, Shanghai Shenhua.

The Warriors Still Look Unstoppable
For the second time this season, a Cavs-Warriors holiday game didn’t give much hope that any team but Golden State could win the NBA title this year.

Atlanta Falcons Somehow Lose To Nick Foles<em></em>
In the month since losing starting quarterback and MVP candidate Carson Wentz, the Philadelphia Eagles have played a skittish backup at quarterback behind a spotty offensive line, at the exact time that their highly ranked defense began collapsing. The franchise hadn’t won a playoff game since 2009,...

Liverpool Mayor Writes Nutty Letter To The FA Calling For Investigation Of Ross Barkley Transfer
Joe Anderson is the mayor of Liverpool. He is also a diehard and delusional Everton fan. It is presumably this mix of a mayor’s political sway and a fan’s righteous indignation that inspired him to call the cops and ask them to investigate a transfer he didn’t like....
This Was One Rough Night For The Cavaliers
The Cavaliers have now lost five of their last seven games, but none of those losses has come close to being so ugly as tonight.
