Dexter Fowler Starts Game 7 With A Leadoff Donger
Corey Kluber is starting for the third time in the past nine days, and he gave up a dinger to Dexter Fowler on his fourth pitch of the evening. Fowler wasn’t sure it’d clear the fence but he rounded second and yelled backwards at the Cubs dugout after the dinger fell....
Zinedine Zidane's Kid Gave Up A Dumb Own Goal
This here’s Luca Zidane. He’s the teenage son of Real Madrid manager Zinedine Zidane and he plays keeper for Real Madrid’s youth team. They played Legia Warsaw today, just like their senior side, and Zidane gave up a dumbass own goal in stoppage time....

For One Quarter Last Night, Steph Looked Like Steph Again
In the grand tradition of LeBron’s Heat and, uh, LeBron’s Cavs, the Warriors’ new superteam has gotten off to a bumpy start. There was that dumbfounding opening night massacre at the hands of the Spurs, but even Golden State’s next two victories—an eight-point win over the Pelicans and a six-point w...
I Have No Idea How Braden Holtby Didn't Allow A Goal Here
The Capitals beat the Jets 3-2 thanks to Jay Beagle’s goal of his own faceoff win with 30 seconds left, but the star was goalie Braden Holtby, who made 43 saves. Four or five of them came on this one sequence:...
At Least Jason Heyward Can Still Play Some Defense
It wasn’t so long ago that watching Jason Heyward play baseball was one of the more thrilling experiences the game had to offer. It’s easy to say that about a guy who plays all-world defense in the outfield and knocks the crap out of the ball at the plate, but the 2016 version of Heyward is not that...
Joe Maddon, What Were You Thinking?
Fuck it, I’ll second-guess....
The Cubs Finally Remembered How To Hit
The Chicago Cubs and Cleveland Indians are heading to Game 7 tomorrow, after the Cubs walloped Indians pitching around for a 9-3 win. Bill Simmons may have predicted that the Indians’ pitching would help them to a Game 6 victory, but they were overmatched from the start. Before Jake Arrieta even too...
Addison Russell Put Cleveland In The Trash Can With A Big Ole Grand Slam
Addison Russell, fresh off picking up two of the easiest RBIs of his career thanks to some outfield incompetence, welcomed Dan Otero to the game by spanking this pitch to center field for a grand salami....
Cleveland Gifted A Few Runs To Chicago With Some Dumbass Defense
It was a perfectly normal, albeit disappointing, first-inning development when Josh Tomlin followed up two quick outs by laying an easy curveball for Kris Bryant to jerk out of the ballpark. Much less normal, however, was the way the Indians gave up their next two runs to the Cubs....
Aaron Gordon Got In Some Mid-Game Dunk Contest Practice
Aaron Gordon got robbed at the Slam Dunk Contest last season, and this evening, he got in some early prep for his 2017 run at the title. In the first quarter of the Magic’s game against the Sixers, he robbed Richaun Holmes blind then pulled off a two-handed 360 on the breakaway....
Get A Load Of The Sports Dude's Extremely Poor World Series Take
Hey, look! It’s The Ringer’s Bill Simmons, definitely unknowingly walking smack-dab into what in no way looks like a prearranged and staged TMZ ambush today in Los Angeles, where reporters lurked to find out what famous Hollywood power-player Bill Simmons thinks will happen in Game 6 of the World Se...
The Melbourne Cup Is Decadent And Depraved
You may have read Hunter S. Thompson’s famous article recounting the rampant debauchery at the Kentucky Derby and thought you’d glimpsed the true, beating heart of insane white people shit. But you’d have been mistaken. It’s not until you see these photos of the Melbourne Cup, Australia’s most drunk...
White Sox Didn't Want Giant Downward Arrow On Their Stadium; Corporate Sponsor Said "Too Bad"
When the White Sox announced a new, 13-year naming rights deal for their stadium (which you can continue to call whatever you’d like), the jokes were plentiful and justified: The name is awkward and bland, and could they really not do better than a medium-sized mortgage lender? But judgment was larg...
Jay Cutler Is Not Long For Chicago
It was a feel-good Monday night in Chicago, a relatively dominant 20-10 win over the division-leading Vikings, but the truth is none of that really matters for the Bears. Even with the victory they’re 2-6, not going anywhere, and the team has reportedly hired an “outside consultant” for a full evalu...

LeBron James, omnipotent shot blocker and NBA champion, loves Halloween. He had a bunch of his Cavs teammates over this weekend, and they all committed to full-on costumes (especially Iman Shumpert).
