Say A Prayer For Jakob Poeltl, Whose Soul Now Resides In Hell
Early in Saturday’s tilt in Minnesota it looked like the Raptors might pull away from the home Timberwolves, who were missing Jimmy Butler due to soreness in his right knee.

What's Up With The Broken Stats At The Australian Open?
As you might have gathered from the three tiebreaks and the names involved, today’s third round match between Nick Kyrgios and Jo-Wilfried Tsonga was a white-hot serve-off.

Let's Just Watch This Cool LeBron James Pass All Day
The Cleveland Cavaliers stink, a few Cavs players really want everyone to know they stink, and hopes of getting it together in time for the playoffs are getting dimmer.

Nick Kyrgios Told A Heckler To "Shut The Fuck Up" And Said He's Never Spoken To Colin Kaepernick
The tennis, as it has been lately for Nick Kyrgios, was encouraging this weekend—a 6-1, 6-2, 6-4 rout of Rogerio Dutra Silva in the first round of the Australian Open—but of course it’s never only about the tennis when it comes to Nick....
The San Francisco Giants Aren't Fixed, But They're Appealing
The 2018 San Francisco Giants would have been a great team in 2013. But it isn’t 2013, and the Giants, who this offseason have traded for Andrew McCutchen and Evan Longoria, are in odd shape as they try to escape a payroll, personnel, and farm system crisis....
Lauri Markkanen Beat Kristaps Porzingis At His Own Game

Remember when he reportedly wanted to dangle him for ...

Jimmy Butler Did Not Enjoy That Football Game
The Wolves whomped the Cavs last night, 127-99, as LeBron James played one of the spottiest games of his career.
