Sean McDermott Had To Chase Bill Belichick's Son Off The Field During Bills Warm-Ups
The Patriots stay Patriotsing.

As captured by WROC-TV’s Thad Brown, McDermott is clearly gesticulating at...
Lorenzo Cain Put On A Damn Show, Bad Leg And All<i></i><i></i>

Maddeningly Slow Golfer Says He Has Evidence To Prove He Isn't Slow, But Can't Share It
Bryson DeChambeau has long been considered one of the slowest pros on the PGA Tour. In August, after taking over two minutes to hit a simple eight-foot putt (which he missed, badly) and a 70-foot approach wedge at the Northern Trust, he drew the ire of golf fans and fellow players, including No. 1 B...
Tony Romo's Hobby Won't Interfere With His Job This Week
Tony Romo could have very well skipped out on his Sunday broadcasting gig at Vikings-Bears to play golf in Napa, Calif. on less than 48 hours notice without facing any consequences. It’s not entirely due to the fact that the former quarterback commands such respect that even his bosses at CBS bend t...

Mark Letestu Must Answer For His Crime Of Downing A Whole Mustard Packet On The Bench [Update]
I’m sure Mark Letestu figured that nobody was looking. It was preseason, for one, and he wasn’t even on the ice when the stoppage of play hit. So it’s fair to assume that he thought he could sneak just one disgusting mustard packet in without everyone thinking he was a creep. He was wrong. The camer...

Report: Robert Kraft And Bill Belichick Disagreed On Whether To Cut Antonio Brown
No one on the Patriots wants to talk about Antonio Brown’s brief stay, which was cut short following a handful of reports detailing multiple sexual assault accusations.

We Have A Wet Bag Problem, And We're Going To Look Into It
There is nothing funny about lower-body injuries in baseball. Upper body injuries, sure—a “strained oblique” sounds just vague enough to get an eye-roll, and Mets-scented mystery injuries like the Out With An Entire Left Side Of Body ailment that sidelined prized Mets free agent Jed Lowrie for virtu...
Some Pitchers You Probably Forgot About Are Carrying The Brewers To The Postseason
Reigning MVP Christian Yelich was lost for the season after taking a foul ball to the knee two weeks ago, but the Milwaukee Brewers didn’t collapse in their quest to make the playoffs for the second year in a row. To the contrary, they shook off the loss of their best player and surged down the stre...
Not For The First Time, Aaron Judge Leaves Starstruck Children Weeping
“Psh,” you say. “Athletes regularly leave their fans in tears. This isn’t news! Move on, find a new slant.” That is true. Please don’t remind me of Brandon Inge’s ‘09 Home Run Derby outing. What we’ve got here, though, is a case of the happy tears. The medical way of explaining this is that children...

Columbia University Wipes Out Its Delightfully Chaotic Marching Band For Bullcrap Reasons

New York Yankees starter Domingo Germán has been out on paid administrative leave since last Thursday, after MLB announced that the league was investigating him under the league’s domestic violence policy. That leave could last up to seven days before MLB could choose to either suspend Germán, reins...
Stop Calling It "Gaslighting"
“Lie” is a great word. It’s a short, to-the-point noun with a universally agreed upon meaning that we all learn before we even enter kindergarten. Call someone a liar, and any English-speaker in the world will require no clarification—they’ll know that someone isn’t telling the truth....

Look closely at this past Saturday’s sports page of the Washington County (Penn.) Observer-Reporter. There’s something off about that photo accompanying a recap of the game between between Peters Township and North Hills. ...
Heartbreaking: Dan Snyder Won't Buy This Man A Spoon
In what is absolutely not a metaphor for Jay Gruden’s coaching and [gestures vaguely at Washington’s routine ascendance to new frontiers of dysfunction], the Monday Night Football broadcast caught a team employee on Washington’s sideline stirring a cooler full of Gatorade with what appears to be a p...
Andre Iguodala Before Being Traded To Memphis: "I'll Probably End Up In Memphis Or Some Shit"
The situation seemed like it was getting contentious, but Andre Iguodala and the Memphis Grizzlies have arrived at a resolution of sorts. Per the Daily Memphian, Iguodala will remain on the Grizzlies’ roster when the 2019-20 NBA season begins, but he won’t report to training camp or Media Day. Inste...
Dennis Smith Jr. May Have Fultzed His Shooting Form
Here’s Dennis Smith Jr. taking some free throws which bear the troubling artistic influence of Markelle Fultz. The clip comes from a Redditor who claimed to spot the Knicks point guard at school—judging by the banners, it’s the Manhattan private school Avenues—and some credibility is gained from the...
