Please Do Not Punch John Wall's Brain Stem Again, Kelly Oubre
The fight last night between Draymond Green and Bradley Beal was mostly two guys hugging each other very hard, first in a standing position, and later while laying on the ground. But that doesn’t mean there were no punches landed! No, indeed, here is a very strong overhand left from young Kelly Oubr...

Draymond Green, Bradley Beal Brawl [Update]

Doug Gottlieb: DeAndre Hopkins Isn't "Smart Enough" To Get "Nuance" Of Bob McNair's "Inmates" Quote
Texans wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins skipped practice today after ESPN published a quote from team owner Bob McNair in which he compared his employees to prison inmates at last week’s NFL meetings. Thankfully, Fox Sports Radio broadcaster Doug Gottlieb was available to bring the white man’s perspect...
Look At God
It’s a testament to Roger Federer’s season that he’s been on the TV so many Friday afternoons, and that so few of the matches have been remotely competitive. Fed just finished up a tense one right now against Adrian Mannarino at Basel, and he had a sloppy few games—lots of shanked balls hurtling in...
Frederik Andersen Makes A Very Unlikely Glove Save
Look at alllll that net facing Noah Hanifin, and the unpreferable positioning of Frederik Andersen, on his pads, off-balance, and stuck near-side after making a save a split second before. Easy goal, right? Not if you know a little trick I like to call “reading the headline.”...
It Was Roger Goodell Vs. Jerry Jones On National Anthem Protests
ESPN’s Seth Wickersham and Don Van Natta Jr. have a great track record of illuminating the shifting and engrossing dynamics among the NFL’s owners—it was they who reported on the revenge motive behind the Deflategate punishments, and they who explained how Jerry Jones was the driving force behind re...

Eric Gordon Caps Rockets Comeback With Buzzer-Beating Three
The Rockets were losing for all of the final 18 minutes of their game against Philadelphia tonight, but after the clock hit zeros, Houston was celebrating the win.

Vin Scully Returns To Dodger Stadium For First-Pitch Ceremony
If there’s been anything wrong with the Dodgers’ otherwise near-flawless season so far, it’s only that Vin Scully hasn’t been in the booth to call it. While the legendary announcer is hopefully enjoying his long-deserved retirement, the crowd at Dodger Stadium was understandably thrilled to see him ...

The Vegas Golden Knights Inexplicably Just Keep Winning
I think I’ve sort of avoided writing about them, because it all seems too deeply weird to be real, let alone to be anything close to sustainable, but there’s really no other option but to acknowledge it now: The Vegas Golden Knights, by pure winning percentage if not quite by points, have the best r...
Poor Rudy Gobert
In the first quarter of tonight’s game against the Jazz, Blake Griffin offered up a dunk over Rudy Gobert that cannot really be fairly described as posterizing, simply because it was intense enough that it would really be kind of cruel to capture and preserve—you’d hang the poster up and everyone wo...
