Browns Blockers Help David Njoku Crowd-Surf Into The End Zone

Baker Mayfield has been exposing the Bengals’ defense with every drop back that’s been called for him today. In just one half he’s thrown for almost 250 yards and three touchdowns. The stats are impressive enough but they don’t tell the whole story of just how great his supporting cast has been toda...

Central Florida Quarterback McKenzie Milton Carted Off After Gruesome Knee Injury

Central Florida star quarterback McKenzie Milton took a shotgun snap on third-and-7 in Friday’s game against South Florida and, after a play-action fake, kept the ball and raced around the right end of the defense, where he ran into a pair of South Florida defenders, one of whom went low. What happe...

The Rodgers Family's Thanksgiving Dinner Plans Will Involve Beef

Jeez. Aaron Rodgers and his family still aren’t on speaking terms, apparently....

“If parents feel like the only option is tackle [football], then there’s a danger that a whole generation of kids may never be introduced to the game,” says Drew Brees, who co-founded a national youth flag football league. Here’s an interesting look at the rise of flag football, and the attention an...

UFC Is Streaming A Bizarre Donald Trump Propaganda Documentary

If parody is still possible, the opening montage is beyond parody. You’ve got your orchestral strings. An American flag. The ubiquitous name slapped on the back of a helicopter: TRUMP. Then Dana White in his traditional uniform, jeans and a black shirt with an extra button undone, lavishing praise....

Vincent Trocheck Taken Off Ice On Stretcher After His Leg Does Several Wrong Things All At Once

Vincent Trocheck of the Florida Panthers was stretchered off the ice Monday night after twisting and bending his right leg in horrifying fashion.

Curling Team Banned From Alberta Tournament For Being So, So Drunk

Curling has long been billed as a sport that you can play while drinking. While that’s true, and it’s not unheard for recreational and competitive players to have a beer during a game, it’s definitely not true that you can play the game drunk, or at least play it well. That was proven in Alberta thi...

James Worthy Played Bass And The Minutemen's Mike Watt Has The Story To Prove It<em></em>

“Have you always been a basketball fan?” This is me, asking Mike Watt, one of my heroes, a pretty basic question. It is, if we’re being honest, a feeble softball, lobbed with all the force of an Andy Borowitz gag. This happened around noon, an hour earlier than we were supposed to begin our two-man ...

Lamar Jackson Is Way More Fun Than Joe Flacco

After half a season of waiting, we finally got our first full dose of Lamar Jackson in the NFL on Sunday. With starting QB Joe Flacco injured, the first-round pick and former Heisman winner at Louisville battled past a stomach illness to take advantage of the opportunity, leading the now 5-5 Ravens ...

Alex Smith Leaves Game On Stretcher With Gruesome Leg Injury [Update]

On a third-and-nine play in the third quarter, Kareem Jackson and J.J. Watt of the Houston Texans sacked Washington quarterback Alex Smith in the backfield for a big loss. The sack forced Smith to land awkwardly on his leg and cause an injury painful enough that the quarterback had to be taken off o...

Julio Jones Jacks Up Dallas' Jeff Heath To Prevent Interception

Julio Jones isn’t just an all-pro receiver who’s currently leading the league in receiving yards, he’s also a bonafide hard-hitter on the football field. Late in the first half, Matt Ryan took a shot down field for his star receiver to grab, but he overthrew the pass. Had Julio Jones’s safety instin...

Report: Condoleezza Rice On Browns' Wish List To Interview For Head Coach [Update]

With the season likely lost, and Gregg Williams being far from the ideal candidate to lead a football team, the Browns have turned their attention to who their next head coach will be for next year. One of the names that the team has an interest in interviewing is former Secretary of State Condoleez...

Quenton Nelson Fined For Leading With His Helmet On Play Made In Edited Viral Video

Rookie offensive lineman Quenton Nelson had a highlight go viral this week that featured him hilariously yelling as he drove right into Jaguars linebacker Barry Church. Apparently, during the height of its popularity, the video made its way to the desk of the league’s head office. The NFL announced ...

Harvard Touchdown Called Back After Running Back Flipped Yale's Defense The Bird

Sophomore running back Devin Darrington got a little too into the Harvard-Yale rivalry today. Up 28-27, the Crimson handed the ball off to their tailback to put themselves up eight points over the Bulldogs. When Darrington hit the 10-yard line, he gave a parting gift to the trailing Yale defenders a...

Amazon's Ransom Vs. Stadium Deals: Which Is Worse?

Four billion dollars, I think we can all agree, is a lot of money. It’s more than the combined annual budgets of Barbados, Bermuda, and Belize. It’s enough to buy a few dozen private Caribbean islands. It’s two Giancarlo Stantons, each with another Giancarlo Stanton stuck on top, with Giancarlo Stan...

The Ravens Might Actually Have To Start Robert Griffin III On Sunday

Hidden behind the cloud of an injured starting quarterback was a brief glimmer of hope for the Ravens on Wednesday. With Joe Flacco missing practice because of an injured hip, rookie Lamar Jackson became the likeliest candidate to take the helm of Baltimore’s offense on Sunday against the Bengals. J...

You Wouldn't Want To Work With Draymond Green, Either

They have been historically great for years and are, when at their unholy apex, probably the most beautiful and terrifying basketball machine ever constructed, but the Golden State Warriors are kind of a corny bunch of dudes. This is nothing on them, really: it’s not their job to be interesting, or ...

The Eagles Suck!

Soccer Ref Suspended Three Weeks For Using Rock-Paper-Scissors Instead Of Coin Flip

Over in England, the FA has banned referee David McNamara for 21 days on the charge of “not acting in the best interests of the game,” after some unauthorized improvisation when he forgot his coin ahead of an Oct. 26 Reading-Manchester City match in the Women’s Super League. Because he didn’t have a...
