Candy Corn Is Garbage

DeAngelo Hall Tore His Achilles When He Slipped While Getting Pizza
The NFL's had a weird spate of injuries this season, on top of the regular injuries that happen every game.

The true spirit of Halloween. Here's the story behind it, but you're probably better off coming up with your own explanation....
And Now, Your Worst Halloween Costume Stories
We were living in Chicago when I was six, and I chose to be a ghost for Halloween. I made the costume myself, because cutting two holes in a sheet seems like an easy task. Of course, I had to cut a third eyehole, because my first two were off-alignment. I also failed to consider the fact that a...
Which Candies Have Have The Most Sugar?
Ostensibly, this chart from WaPo's Wonkblog is about ranking candy by its sugar content so you can consume the maximum amount of sugar, and it does a fine job of that. But looking at it, all I can think about is how everything north of Gummy Bears coming in at a full 70 percent sugar is so much more...
Watch Paralympian Josh Sundquist Make His Fantastic Halloween Costume
Former Paralympian Josh Sundquist now spends his time as a motivational speaker, but when Halloween comes around, he becomes the best costume creator of the holiday. He's gone as a flamingo, gingerbread man with a leg bitten off, and the leg lamp from A Christmas Story in past years. This year, he...
Angry Tennis Player Flings Racket; Lineswoman Nearly Dies Of Fright
One possible headline to this post could be "Frustrated Tennis Player Smokes Lineswoman With Racket," but that wouldn't be entirely accurate. Darian King did wheel around and chuck his racket after losing a crucial point, and it did hit the nearby lineswoman, but it's pretty obviously accidental....

The Hater’s Guide To Your Local Halloween Store
Every year, when October rolls around, some enterprising fellow in my area rents out an abandoned Dollar Tree and turns it into a pop-up Halloween Megastore, resplendent with costumes and decorations and fitting rooms that almost certainly now house the Ebola virus. Almost everything in these sto...
Halloween Wizard Nose Looks Like A Hefty Set Of Dick And Balls
We have some bad news for the makers of the Wizard Nose: This thing doesn't look like a wizard's nose, fellas. It looks like an old guy's unit....
Nah, Don't Be Ray Rice For Halloween
I get it; it's cheap and easy. You get an old jersey, some pads, a blow-up doll, and bam: you're the public face of domestic violence. But maybe the recognition you'll inspire isn't worth it? Just a thought....
Here Are 12 Scary-Ass Halloween Movies To Totally Ruin Your Shit
I have always suspected that there is a reason why all of our best holidays come in the fall and winter. Days get shorter, and it's cold and wet out, and all the animals go to bed, and all the trees, like, die or whatever. Winter is a hard, shitty time of year....
Report: Brandon Marshall Called Out Jay Cutler In Bears' Locker Room
After a loss to an underwhelming Dolphins team, the 3-4 Bears had it out in a closed locker room—yelling, shoving, everyone right on down to the kicker getting blasted in turn. But as far as postgame meltdowns go, this has the potential to be one of the more constructive ones: behind Brandon Marshal...
We Have A Halloween Cereal Problem
It's Halloween season, now, and if you've taken your keen consumer eye into certain participating supermarket chains, you may have noticed the (for a limited time only!) return of the familiar monster-themed General Mills cereals of yore: Count Chocula, Franken-Berry, and Boo-Berry....
Wazzu QB Connor Halliday Breaks NCAA Passing Record, Still Loses
Washington State quarterback Connor Halliday threw for 734 yards and six touchdowns last night against Cal. That broke not only David Klingler's 24-year-old FBS record, but the overall NCAA record of 730 for a game that was set by Old Dominion's Taylor Heinicke two years ago. The Cougars still los...
