Actually, Tom Brady Is Getting Another Raise
It's time for the biennial "Tom Brady restructures his contract" news cycle, and it always goes the same way: the initial release, passed along by a useful media mouthpiece, makes it seem as if Brady is forfeiting money to help the Patriots afford to get him better teammates; then, the details come ...

Rex Ryan Just Wants To Get Fired Already
Only the Jets could donk their way into annoying their head coach by not firing him. But according to a report from NJ.com, Ryan is righteously pissed that Jets owner Woody Johnson and doofus-turk Charley Casserly are shopping his and John Idzik's jobs without actually having fired them. ...
Dwyane Wade Is Not Dead Yet
Dwyane Wade's Christmas day game may end up being his signature performance of the season, leading an undermanned Heat team without Chris Bosh and Josh McRoberts to a win over LeBron's Cavs. Wade poured in 31 points, 5 assists, 5 rebounds and an emphatic-as-hell block on Kevin Love. ...

Anthony Davis Volleyball Spikes Manu Ginobili's Shot Straight To Hell
If you put your ear close to your laptop speaker and turn the sound up high enough, you can actually hear the ball itself screaming in terror, just before Anthony Davis pounds it into the parquet at the speed of light.

John Wall Is In Control
You may have skipped yesterday's Christmas Day game between the Knicks and Wizards, in part because the craptacular Knicks were involved, and in part because a certain level of pacing is required when there are 12 hours of basketball to watch. If you did skip it, you didn't miss the greatest game ev...
The Cardinals' Starting QB Will Be Ah Who Cares
This whole thing may be purely academic; the Cardinals are zeroing in on a road wild-card game, and Drew Stanton will probably be back by then. But, for the NFL completists out there: the third-stringer appears to have regained the inside track from the fourth-stringer for a likely-meaningless Week ...

The Knicks are getting outclassed by the Wizards today, and New York's frustration boiled over in the fourth quarter.
