What The Hell Is Herm Edwards Talking About?
Herm Edwards is already facing plenty of doubters, not to mention adversity, as he tries to coach at Arizona State in his first college season since 1989. Early moments from Herm on the job have been both bizarre and kind of adorably weird, and at a press conference yesterday where he talked about p...
Messi Came Off The Bench To Stroll Around, Keep Barcelona Undefeated
Lionel Messi came on as a substitute in the 58th minute of Barcelona’s match against Sevilla on Saturday with express orders not to run around too much. He obeyed, meandered around for the better part of his 30-minute cameo, before picking his moment and bursting forth from out of nowhere to score t...
Enjoy Zion Williamson's Dunks One Last Time Before He Becomes A Vile Dookie
Zion Williamson, the hefty dunking boy whose high-school exploits have been all over YouTube for what feels like a decade now, is finally ready to join the ranks of elite college basketball. Although he’s committed to Duke, he’s not officially a Blue Devil yet, which means you are free to lose your ...
"I Like The Whimpering": Deadspin Editors Mock Innocent Child Cheering For Duke
On Sunday, Duke lost to No. 1 seed Kansas. Depending on your loyalties—more precisely, depending on if you’re one of the North Carolinians that overpaid for your undergraduate education or one of the Northeastern private schoolers that couldn’t make the cut at Yale—you took this one of two ways....
Duke Will Probably Have Nightmares About Malik Newman For A While<em></em>
On this particular Kansas team, with its all killer/no filler six-man core, it can sometimes be easy to overlook the contributions of shooting guard Malik Newman, a relative newcomer who has yet to establish his exact role with the Jayhawks. Devonte’ Graham is the face of the team. Svi Mykhailiuk is...
Kansas Jayhawks Do The World A Favor, Knock Out Duke
The Kansas Jayhawks accomplished a much-needed task today as they eliminated Mick Krizilonski and Duke in an 85-81 overtime win. The Blue Devils can settle for an Elite Eight appearance and get their dreadful visages off everyone’s TVs. Fuck off!...

World Rejoices As Shitty Manchester United Team Knocked Out Of Champions League
Yesterday’s Manchester United-Sevilla Champions League match was the best game of the knockout rounds thus far. Not because these are two particularly great teams competing—they both are pretty bad—nor because they played especially well—the game was largely awful. No, this match was great for prett...
Bonzie Colson Was The Greatest Duke-Killer Of Our Generation
Last night, Duke rode Marvin Bagley’s monster 33-point, 17-rebound performance to an easy win over Notre Dame in the third round of the ACC tournament....
Colorado Coach Tad Boyle Injures Leg While Breaking Up Scuffle After Late-Game Dunk
Colorado and Arizona State got a little beef stewing in the closing moments of today’s Pac-12 Tournament game. Up by nine points with eight seconds to play on their way to the win, Buffaloes guard Tyler Bey went for a dunk, and the Sun Devils didn’t react too kindly....
The Oilers Should Probably Stop Sending Guys To New Jersey
The Edmonton Oilers are utter trash this year, despite the once-in-a-lifetime superstar they tanked their way into getting, so it’s hard to even chart exactly how bad they would be if they had to rely entirely on GM Peter Chiarelli’s deal-making ingenuity. But a look across the continent over in New...
Joshua Simmons's Long Journey From NBA Draft Punchline To College Hoops Nomad Is Almost Over
You’ve likely never heard of Joshua Simmons. You certainly hadn’t heard of him when he entered his name in the NBA draft. Five years ago, at 20 years old, Simmons was on the NBA’s official early entry list, despite having played just a handful of games at a junior college 30 minutes east of Greenvil...
David de Gea Is A Freak
Manchester United did not deserve to draw Sevilla 0-0 on the road this afternoon, but the good thing about soccer is that the scarcity of goals produces all manner of undeserved results. United took just a single shot on goal and they never seemed to get their offense into a reasonably high gear, in...

An Arizona cheerleader hit the showers early after being ejected for shouting something at a referee midway through the second half of the Wildcats’ game in Tempe against rivals Arizona State....

St. John's Breaks 11-Game Losing Streak By Beating No. 4 Duke
St. John’s opened its Big East schedule by dropping all eleven games so far this year—even losing to lowly DePaul—but today’s visit by Duke to Madison Square Garden turned things around for Chris Mullin’s squad as the Red Storm knocked off the fourth-ranked Blue Devils 81-77....
Disease Outbreak Forces Duke Students To Abandon Flu-Riddled Tent City
Even in the best of conditions Krzyzewskiville, the tent city erected by Duke students before the North Carolina game in a performative tribute of extreme fandom, does not sound like a charming place to be. Getting drunk in a tent is a time-honored pastime, though since this particular gathering is ...
There Are No Remaining Undefeateds In Men's College Basketball
Villanova, Arizona State, and TCU entered their Saturday games as the sole undefeated teams in men’s college basketball, and one after another, they all lost that honor.
