Report: Joe Maddon To Manage The Cubs
Well, that happened pretty quickly. It's been less than a week since Joe Maddon left the Tampa Bay Rays in the dust, and he's already found himself a new job managing the Chicago Cubs, according to Jon Heyman of CBS Sports....
Luis Suárez Is All The Way Back
Like, c'mon. This shouldn't be legal. Sure, it's only the Catalan Supercup, but Espanyol are a real team and Luis Suárez still had to juke the defender out of his shorts before chipping an outrageous pass onto the head of Gerard Piqué. Here's the vine:...
This Is The Problem With Saying "Redskins" On TV
OK, so it's an ad, and as a rule we don't participate in advertising campaigns. We're making an exception here, though, because the commercial above quietly makes a good point that we made bluntly not too long ago, about the normalization of a racial slur....
High School Quarterback Blows Play-In Game In Worst Way Imaginable
Spanish Fork High School had the lead and the ball in the final seconds of a play-in game against Maple Mountain, and was well on its way to the Utah state tournament. With Maple Mountain out of timeouts, Spanish Fork decided to run a play on fourth down and run off the six seconds remaining on the ...
Bill Belichick Likely To Study Tape Of His Slaying Of Reporter
We've gone over this before, but Bill Belichick's adept at letting reporters draw out their questions before he shuts them down with curt answers. (It's entertaining, if your job isn't covering the Patriots.) Naturally, the media wanted to talk about Peyton Manning vs. the Patriots today, and Belich...
Ronaldo's Girlfriend Reacts To Flirty Jokes With Coldest Ice-Grill
Just look at that face. Yes, it's the face of Irina Shayk, super model and Cristiano Ronaldo's long-time girlfriend, but it's also the face of a woman that is FED. UP. with jokes about her man's underwear modeling and waxing regimen....
How The Cavaliers' Old Court Ended Up In A High School Gym
The coliseum referenced on the basketball court above is the Richfield Coliseum, once home to the Cleveland Cavaliers. It's the very same floor on which Michael Jordan dusted Craig Ehlo, and now it belongs to a high school in Virginia. ...
Can American Des Linden Win The NYC Marathon?
I like Des Linden. I like her to throw it down for the win at this weekend's NYC Marathon. Reason is, in running's top echelon, Linden has only been blessed, and it's sort of a dubious blessing, with the ability to work hard. She has ground and scrapped and relentlessly gutted out every second's imp...
Even Carlo Ancelotti Wishes Sepp Blatter Would Shut The Fuck Up
FIFA has released its Ballon d'Or shortlist, which means Sepp Blatter can take time away from his day job of punching up FIFA propaganda and gets to enjoy some of that media facetime he loves so much. Like you, Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti would prefer Sepp spared us his hot takes....
Stella Artois Is A Disgrace To Belgium
A couple weeks ago, I wrote a big, trashy, sensationalist, and 100-percent accurate post titled "There Is No Excuse For Drinking Heineken," in which I argued that there are literally thousands of better-tasting ways to communicate to the world that you have a dollar more than the price of a Budwei...
Cops: Man Says Karlos Williams Set Up Pot Deal That Led To Robbery
A man who tried to buy pot in Tallahassee and instead got robbed told police the deal was initiated by Florida State running back Karlos Williams, according to a Tallahassee police warrant. ...
The Assassination Of Iker Casillas By The Coward José Mourinho
Real Madrid handily beat Barcelona this weekend, with adulation bestowed upon many of the individual victors for their performance. Isco proved his grit and talent in fighting for a spot on a team lousy with great attacking midfielders and excelling when given the chance. James Rodríguez showed why ...
Jimbo Fisher Is A Whimpering Penis
Florida State is ranked second overall in the College Football Playoff committee's current rankings, which are determined by a complex mix of computer algorithms and schedule analysis and praying to a magic goldfish for spiritual guidance. And if you're like me, you're hoping that Florida State los...
Clippers Release Video To Remind Us Donald Sterling Isn't The Owner
Yesterday, the Los Angeles Clippers released a new hype video to start the new season. The message: Buy tickets and come to our games, because Donald Sterling doesn't own the team anymore!...

DeSean Jackson Will Catch Deep Balls No Matter Who Throws To Him
Washington has started three quarterbacks this season in an effort to find one that works. It's been terrible. Despite the shuffling, one offensive player hasn't been affected much at all: DeSean Jackson, the big-play receiver with the busted quarterbacks, has kept busting up defenses. ...
Missing Broncos Fan "Had His Fill Of Football," Tried To Hitchhike Home
Police have located Paul Kitterman, a 53-year-old man from Kremmling, Col. who disappeared while attending last Thursday's Broncos game. He was found in Pueblo, Col., which is about 100 miles away from Denver....

How Much Madison Bumgarner Are We Going To See Tonight?
It took the Royals about an hour to put away Game 6 last night, leaving us all plenty of time to start thinking about how each team plans to set itself up in Game 7. One question looms larger than all the others: How much is Madison Bumgarner going to pitch?...
