Jason Whitlock: LeBron James Is A Fraud And A Bad Leader Because He's An Only Child
LeBron James is an only child. This is a fact.

If this extremely stupid question somehow seems lik...

Soccer On American TV Is Going Straight To A Fiery, Paywalled Hell
Back in the golden age of soccer TV in the U.S.—think back, if you were lucky enough to be there for them, to those naive, innocent, halcyon days of 2016—America was the best place on earth to be a couch-dwelling soccer fan. In those heady times, stateside followers of the beautiful game could gorge...

Fox Landed WWE By Promising Them Everything They Ever Wanted

Fox Sports Is Half-Assing The World Cup
Fox Sports, who paid an unprecedented $425 million for the TV rights to the 2018 and 2022 World Cups—before the U.S. team shockingly failed to qualify—announced today that it is essentially giving up on trying to make its World Cup broadcast as good as it could be.

Report: Britt McHenry Is Fake News
Britt McHenry, who should really update her handwringing-about-rap shtick since N.W.A isn’t what the kids listen to anymore, was named this weekend in a New York Times report as one of the celebrities, “celebrities,” and media members who have purchased phony Twitter followers through a company call...
