Browns: Don't Worry, Our Trade Fuck-Up Wasn't A Strategic Move, It Was Just A Fuck-Up
It requires a pretty deep trust in the Browns’ incompetence to believe that their attempt to trade with the Bengals for A.J. McCarron was really undone by their own inability to file simple paperwork in a timely manner. Trust in the Cleveland Browns’ incompetence is pretty well-placed trust, sure, b...
Rambling Flat-Earth Truther Suggests Tyronn Lue Lacks "Intellectual Mind"
Kyrie Irving, a splendid basketball player with a habit of speaking like his entire vocabulary of multisyllabic words is operated by a lotto machine, went on Geno Auriemma’s podcast and told the coach that his eagerness to join the Boston Celtics came down, in part, to “intellectual human being” Bra...
LeBron James Devoured The Noisy Wizards
The context for LeBron’s 57-point masterpiece last night is something I, a devoted Wizards fan, would prefer to ignore—the Wizards spent portions of the spring and an interview with ESPN’s The Jump chirping that the Cavs ducked them in last season’s playoffs, and went so far as to say that they, the...
Lance Stephenson Slaps LeBron In The Dick And Balls
Cleveland must have experienced some bizarre time warp tonight, because it’s the year 2017, and the Pacers’ Lance Stephenson is still making life extremely unpleasant for LeBron James. This time, the meme-able bench player came at LeBron as he drove down the lane, waving his right arm in wild desper...
NFL Conditionally Reinstates Josh Gordon
After several lengthy suspensions spanning multiple years, Cleveland Browns wide receiver Josh Gordon has been conditionally reinstated by the NFL, clearing the way for the former All-Pro to play his first games since December 2014....
Report: The Browns Are Huge Idiots Who Didn't File Paperwork But Also Maybe Sabotaged Their Own Trade
The Bengals almost traded backup QB A.J. McCarron to the Browns Tuesday, but the deal didn’t go through. Adam Schefter reported that Cleveland had missed the 4 p.m. deadline. The Browns still have a dismal QB depth chart, and now they’re also getting roasted by anonymous sources willing to detail pr...
Get Ready For A Night Of Weird Bullpens
Now that this violently unpredictable World Series is going seven games—as it deserves—I can predict with absolute certainty only two pitchers who will not appear tonight: Game 6 starters Rich Hill and Justin Verlander. That’s it. Everyone else is in play. There is no tomorrow, and it is, as they sa...
Report: Browns Forget To Complete QB Trade Like A Bunch Of Big Dumbasses
The Browns tried to get in on an unusually busy NFL trade deadline by making a somewhat inexplicable deal with the Bengals for backup QB A.J. McCarron. They weren’t even able to pull that off, according to Adam Schefter:...
Carmelo Anthony Explains Why He Screams While Rebounding
Arriving on a new team must be tricky; you’ve got to get acclimated to new surroundings and personalities. Happily it took Carmelo Anthony roughly zero regular season games to get comfortable screaming, “Get the fuck out of here!” at his teammates while gathering rebounds....
Everyone Failed Braxton Beverly<em></em>
On the same day that NCAA president Mark Emmert told a crowd at the Knight Commission that allowing schools to dictate a college athlete’s ability to transfer “never made any sense” to him, the NCAA denied N.C. State guard Braxton Beverly’s appeal to play for the 2017 season. Wolfpack head coach Kev...
The Cavaliers Stink!
Append all the ordinary caveats, of course: It’s October; they’re without Isaiah Thomas; they’re integrating what seems like a small army of new players; the East is so godawful shitty there’s basically no floor to playoff contention; and so on. Fine. But still. The Cleveland Cavaliers are not just ...
The Pro Wrestling Fan Who Wasted The FBI's Time Claiming He Paid Oswald to Kill JFK
Thursday night’s release of a trove of raw JFK assassination intelligence by the National Archives seems as if it was deliberately released in such a way as to comply with the law while ensuring that it’s as difficult to use as possible. The PDFs of the documents have not been made searchable, their...
Steve Smith Might Really Whoop Michael Irvin's Ass
During Thursday’s NFL Network pregame show, Michael Irvin couldn’t resist taking a shot at Steve Smith’s pants. It seems like a bad idea to joke with the guy who once broke his own teammate’s nose, but it was heartening to see Irvin put his own neck on the line for once....
Three Sick LeBron James Passes
The Cavs are and will remain a bit of a mess at the point guard position until Isaiah Thomas manages to return from his hip injury. One luxury they enjoy, however, is the ability to plug the best player in the world into any lineup hole and perform at an all-world level....
Browns QB Roulette Continues Apace After DeShone Kizer Apologizes For Going To Bar
The Cleveland Browns, who are once again a plague upon this green Earth, have spent the season flipping back and forth between a trio of QBs of varying mediocrity. DeShone Kizer, Kevin Hogan, and Cody Kessler have teamed up to throw seven touchdowns and 17 picks for a team that only figures to have ...
Martavis Bryant Calls Out Teammate JuJu Smith-Schuster On Instagram
Fresh off a year-long weed suspension, Steelers wide receiver Martavis Bryant returned to the team this season only to abruptly request a trade, after his role in the offense diminished with the emergence of rookie WR JuJu Smith-Schuster. Bryant caught a single pass for three yards in yesterday’s 29...
Everton Fire Ronald Koeman, Who Really Fucked This Up
There are a few easy ways to define the worst team in the Premier League. One of them is to find the team with the least amount of talent. Another is to find the team most likely to get relegated. Everton, despite being 18th in the table after yesterday’s 5-2 loss to Arsenal, don’t (yet) fit either ...
The Steelers Upped Their Celebration Game With Some Hide-And-Seek
The Pittsburgh Steelers have been the NFL’s most reliable source of post-touchdown fun since the league relaxed its celebration rules, and after a JuJu Smith-Schuster score today, they showed off another move in their arsenal. For the enjoyment of all, Smith-Schuster and Le’Veon Bell put on a choreo...
Browns' Only Strength Also Ruined
With an injury to Joe Thomas’s triceps, the lone good thing about the Cleveland Browns came to an end. The stalwart tackle, who had played in 10,363 straight offensive snaps since debuting for Cleveland in 2007, had to leave the game after a three-yard run from Duke Johnson....
