Steve Smith Will Beef With You Over Any Old Thing
Steve Smith had to leave last night’s game against the Steelers after taking a hit to the back from Steelers linebacker Lawrence Timmons. Smith was angry about getting hurt, but it wasn’t Timmons’s shot that had him riled up, it was an earlier tackle made by former teammate Mike Mitchell....
Seven Habits Of Highly Awesome Middle School Runners
We’re trotting along, arms uptight and locked, kneecaps clanking, when one of the sixth-grade harriers pulled up short. In this group, sudden cessation of movement indicates either a haphazardly attached body part has fallen off, or the stalled vehicle has decided he hates cross country and is dropp...
A Whole Bunch Of Browns Say TMZ's Johnny Manziel Story Was Made-Up
The big story in Brownsland yesterday was a TMZ report that cited three unnamed “offensive starters” calling for the team to switch back to Johnny Manziel at quarterback. As if that weren’t already a narrow pool of suspects, Browns starters have since raced to deny it was them—six players at latest ...
Sounds Like Some Browns Players Want Johnny Manziel Back
Despite winning his start and looking generally decent and genuinely exciting, Johnny Manziel was benched by the Browns the minute Josh McCown passed his concussion tests. After Cleveland’s loss to the Raiders, coach Mike Pettine bluntly said the team isn’t considering going back to Manziel. Judging...
Ben Revere Blows Water Jug Bath, Dumps It All Over Himself
Josh Donaldson’s solo home run gave the Blue Jays a walkoff win over the Rays Sunday, and that’s lovely, but let’s talk about Ben Revere’s water-dumping skills. The outfielder was so excited about the opportunity to dump the jug on his teammates that he totally fucked it up....
Steve Smith's Review Of The Bengals Secondary: Trash, Trash, Fuckboy
If Steve Smith actually walks away from the game after this season as planned, the NFL will lose one captivating ball of hate. The 36-year-old Ravens receiver treats talking trash like an art, and he was in the zone Sunday after catching his second touchdown of the game to give the Ravens a 24-21 le...
Things Did Not End Well For This Daring Browns Fan
The photo above was taken by a reader who was tailgating at yesterday’s Browns game, in an area aptly named The Pit. We’ll let him tell you what happened next:...

Three Images From The Bears Game (So We Never Have To Speak Of It Again)
Already deeply flawed and lacking the injured Jay Cutler, the Bears weren’t expected to do much against the Seahawks. Chicago managed to surprise, though, accomplishing even less than that....
The Browns Are Such A Godforsaken Mess
Dwayne Bowe is a “healthy inactive” for Raiders-Browns this afternoon, meaning there isn’t really anything wrong with Bowe, beyond his fundamental inability to play football well, but the Browns are sitting him anyway. This is only one of several stupid moving parts in the stupid fakakta machine tha...
Browns Send Johnny Manziel Back To The Bench, For Some Reason
The Browns coaches must fucking despise Johnny Manziel. ...
Why Is Adrian Wojnarowski Peddling A Falsehood About The 2013 Draft?
The Minnesota Timberwolves and Anthony Bennett are talking about a contract buyout, according to a report from Adrian Wojnarowski. Considering how poorly Bennett has played in his first two seasons in the league, and that he’s sixth—at best—on Minnesota’s front court depth chart, the report isn’t pa...
Carlos Tévez Snaps Poor Man's Shin Bone With Horrible Tackle [GRAPHIC]
The commentators say all that needs to be said about the increasingly gross camera angles showing Carlos Tévez giving Ezequiel Ham a new joint in the middle of his shin: “Ai ai ai ai ai ai ai. ... Ooooo, no no no no no no no! ... AHHHHH!”...
I Think You Could Say This Guy Got Blown Up
Florida State shut out Boston College in a truly terrible Friday night ACC game, but the Eagles at least had this highlight from linebacker Steven Daniels. He might have a name worth remembering! But you’ll have to try hard to remember it, because “Steven Daniels” is not an easy name to remember....
<i>Everest </i>Works Best When It Focuses On The Mountain, Not The Feeble Men On It
1. If nothing else, you should see Everest on as big a screen as possible. I was fortunate enough to see it in 3-D on a digital IMAX screen—not the same as the IMAX format, mind you, there’s a difference, but still, you know, big—and I’m glad I did. The most you can hope for from a movie about Mount...
Kevin From <i>The League</i> Admits He Made Up Story About Narrowly Escaping 9/11
Steve Rannazzisi, whom you may know from The League, those Buffalo Wild Wing commercials, or—well, just those two things—has an old chestnut he’s always used to explain how he got into comedy: the Long Island-born actor cites 9/11 as the impetus for his move to Los Angeles. Rannazzisi says he was wo...

<i>Sicario</i> Is An Unrelenting Horror Story Disguised As A Drug-War Action Movie
Sicario is a movie that rumbles. I mean that literally: Through the first half of the film, there’s rarely a scene in which something isn’t growling or grumbling in the background. Sometimes the sound comes from something big, like a passing APC engine or a helicopter blade, and sometimes from somet...
Jim Tomsula Should Be Your Favorite Coach
We made a lot of jokes at Jim Tomsula’s expense after the 49ers tabbed him as their new head coach, because he exudes an appearance that screams “cautionary tale,” (or perhaps “hardware salesman”) but here’s the truth: the man’s undefeated. With his win as an interim coach in 2010, and last night’s ...
