NFL Considers Eliminating A Preseason Game
The NFL competition committee has held “lengthy discussions” about the possibility of trimming the preseason down to three games, which would obviously be very welcome news.

Why FIFA's Unambitious New President Might Be Good News For Reform

Fast-Food Smackdown: Burger King's Jalapeño Chicken Fries Vs. Taco Bell's Quesalupa
Life, being pain, will sometimes trap even the most careful fast-foodie in the burgerless hellscape of a bullshit “real” restaurant that offers six total options: beef, chicken, this kind of fish, that kind of fish, some mushroom-pasta thing, and a wild card that is probably duck or beans. The meat-...

Chicago ABC station WLS did not start today off on the right foot, as we see in this OTS image attempting to illustrate the Laquan McDonald case....
Reports: Colin Kaepernick's Agents Request Permission From 49ers To Seek A Trade
The San Francisco 49ers have been quite insistent lately that quarterback Colin Kaepernick, who took them to the Super Bowl in 2013 but lost his job last season amidst anemic play, injuries, and a devolving relationship with the team, is still in their long-term plans. At the NFL Scouting Combine, G...
Dexter Fowler's Agent Rips Into The Orioles And The Baseball Media

Kobe Bryant Makes Another Fan Look Like An Awkward Schmuck
Kobe Bryant has been a kindler and gentler version of himself during his farewell season, and it’s been a little hard to understand how Kobe could suddenly stop being a vicious, hypercompetitive maniac.

Arkansas QB Trying To Stretch His Lil' Baby Hands In Order To Boost Draft Stock

This goal, scored by Ranger’s striker Kenny Miller, is crazy. The ball’s trajectory is less a dipping curler and more a meteor falling out of the sky and somehow landing in the side netting. It’s a curve you’d learn to plot in high school math class with your graphing calculator come to life. The go...
