ESPN: Richie Incognito Is An Iroquois War God

Richie Incognito, the big Buffalo Bills guard whose name you most likely recognize for its association with him being about as awful as a person can be, is still the same guy he’s always been. He’s the guy who called former teammate Jonathan Martin a “half-nigger piece of shit”; who settled a civil ...

Judge Awards Mike McQueary Additional $5 Million In Whistleblower Lawsuit

Penn State chose not to stand by whistleblower Mike McQueary when he brought forward allegations of child sex abuse and later served as a witness in the case against Jerry Sandusky and the university. Now, the school is paying the price. ...

When The Vandals Took North Africa, They Had Their Way With The Roman Empire 

North Africa was one of the heartlands of the Roman Empire. It produced most of the grain that fed Rome, the olive oil that burned in lamps from Sicily to Spain, the pottery that sat on every dinner table from Britain to Greece, and the tax revenue that kept the Roman government flush....

Keeper Scores Amazing, Last-Second Bicycle Kick, Caps It With Even Better Celebration

Goalkeeper goals are always special for the simple fact that it’s always great when a goalkeeper scores. But Baroka FC keeper Oscarine Masuluke’s stoppage-time equalizer that he knocked in with a crazy overhead kick, coupled with his crotch-grabbing celebration, deserves a spot in the goalie goal ha...

County That Is $1 Billion In Debt Goes Looking For Money To Pay For Cavaliers' Arena Renovations

What happens when an NBA team wants to steal tax dollars in order to pay for arena renovations, but the county it wants to steal from is literally out of money? Does the billionaire who owns the team just go ahead and pay for the renovations himself? Of course not!...

Jeff Fisher Is Ready To Face Patriots Running Backs "Brandon" And "Danny"

Okay, Jeff Fisher has to be messing with everyone. How could a man work in the league for this long if he were actually this dumb and uninformed? NFL coaches are stupid in many ways, but they’re at least obsessive about their jobs. Today, the Rams head coach appeared to be using years-old intel to p...

Get A Load Of This Ascot-Wearing, Wine-Toting Anti-Trump Philadelphia Vandal

Last week, two men spray painted “FUCK TRUMP!” on the wall of a Philadelphia Fresh Market. (That’s like a cut-rate Whole Foods.) They were a bit haphazard with their vandalism and got caught on security cameras by the grocery store. This is not a particularly notable case on its merits, and would be...

The English Soccer Sexual Abuse Scandal Is Growing Into A Colossal Nightmare 

Andy Woodward, a former defender for fourth-tier English soccer team Crewe Alexandra, told The Guardian two weeks ago about the repeated sexual abuse he had suffered at the hands of convicted pedophile Barry Bennell, who was a Crewe youth coach in the 1980s and 1990s. Since then Bennell has been cha...

Hot Fucking Stove: Don't Touch The Stove It's Extremely Hot

Good news, friends: The Thanksgiving holiday brought us not just a bounty of meats, side dishes, and familial bonding, but also mildly interesting baseball transactions that could have anywhere from no to some impact on the upcoming season of “America’s pastime.”...

Kind And Gentle Aussie Goalkeeper Rescues Seagull That Took A Ball To The Face

Born to a sun-scorched land whose cruelly blistering climes have weeded out all but the most terrifying and murderous critters (and, somehow, koalas), it makes sense that Australians would be better equipped than most to interact with the rare friendly creature that crosses their paths with respect,...

Baylor Regent: Getting A Full Report Would Have Cost Us Money

Members of the Baylor University Board of Regents have avoided discussing why they never commissioned, received, nor released a full, detailed written report from outside investigators at Pepper Hamilton on how their institution made life a living hell for women who reported they were raped (especia...

Mark Helfrich Fired By Oregon, Which Makes Sense

As a rule, Oregon doesn’t fire coaches. The last time they fired one was in 1976, instead choosing to promote from within. That’s a perfectly noble system to adhere to if you’re the sort of school that’s accepted lower expectations or manages to find a flawless in-house successor for every coach and...

Domain Registry Records Link Fight Promoter Bjorn Rebney To "MMA Athletes Association" [UPDATED]

Former Bellator CEO Bjorn Rebney—who is named in a press release touting an “industry defining” announcement tomorrow, and whose wife’s public relations firm sent the release out—is the owner of the domains mmaathletesassociation.info, mmaathletesassociation.net, and mmaathletesassociation.org.

Bad Sign

Can You Identify These Animals?

The Gardner Police Department needs your help. The Kansas town set up a bunch of wildlife cameras in a park to try and get footage of a mountain lion. Instead, they got this....

Report: Kenya's Olympic Team Was Torpedoed By Their Own Comically Corrupt Officials<em></em>

Kenya finished the Rio Olympics with 13 track and field medals, second only to the United States who finished with 32. That’s a gulf, not a gap, but after reading details about how thoroughly the team was sold up the river by their own Olympic committee, I’m impressed that Kenya managed that many....

Al Horford's Sister Tells Radio Doofus To Fuck Off Over His Bad Paternity Leave Take

Al Horford missed the Celtics’ win last night over the Heat to be in Atlanta for the birth of his daughter. This did not sit well with Mike Felger, a Boston-based radio and TV doofus, who said on CSN New England last night that Horford should have chartered a private jet and made the game because th...

Dabo Swinney Thinks Reporters Should Be Fired For Doing Their Jobs

Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney has a bone to pick with all those unethical reporters out there who don’t cover his team exactly the way he wants them to. ...

Georges St-Pierre, Others To Make Mysterious Announcement, Possibly About MMA Fighters Union<em></em>
