Man, Maryland Really Should've Won That

Maryland had an opportunity to upset a top-10 nationally-ranked program at home and secure bowl eligibility for the first time in two seasons.

Taking some advice from the professional team just south of Jersey, the Scarlet Knights decided...

Alabama Gives Up First November Touchdown To The Citadel

Alabama’s defense has been quite good this month. Both Mississippi State and LSU laid up big fat goose eggs against the Crimson Tide, despite both teams being worthy of top-25 rankings.

How Much Longer Does Mike McCarthy Have Left?

On its face, losing by three points on a Thursday at one of the most notoriously difficult stadiums to play in as a visiting team isn’t cause to sound the alarm.

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

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!

Last week Dom Cosentino and I discussed one simple truth of this NFL season: The Dallas Cowboys were a mess. Naturally, the Cowboys went out and beat up on the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday night....

The Steelers Have Ransacked Le'Veon Bell's Locker

Le’Veon Bell officially ended his tenure with the Pittsburgh Steelers when he didn’t report to the team by yesterday’s 4:00 p.m. deadline.

Marco Rubio: The Recount Is Like Booting The Helmet Sport Ball Through The Yellow Poles

I’m not going to subject you to this entire embarrassing conspiracy theory-pushing thread posted tonight by bloodless dipshit Marco Rubio—a man who would finish off the podium in a Marco Rubio lookalike contest—but I would like to draw as much attention as possible to the fact that Rubio tried to pa...

In an attempt to burnish their brand in the eyes of the nation’s population of shrieking nine-year-olds who steal their mothers’ credit cards to cosplay John Wick in a bad video game, the NFL has partnered with Fortnite and released a bunch of official skins and other crap.

Ass Team Of The Week: The Buccaneers Were Killed By Their Own Hot, Compressed Farts

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers lost 16-3 to Washington on Sunday, but just about every number save for the final score says the Bucs were the better team.
