Holiday Gift Guide: Gifts For People Who Like To Drink
Some of us like to drink, some of us need to drink, and some don't care about the distinction and frankly are a little miffed at you for bringing it up in the first place.

Senators Goalie Disgusts Woman With His Gatorade Drinking
From Reddit comes this moment from last night's Senators-Panthers game, in which we see Craig Anderson spitting Gatorade all over the place and grossing the hell out of this poor woman in the front row. Nice going, Craig....
My Kid's Insane Christmas Wish List, Annotated
When I was a kid, I would dream up completely insane presents to put on my Christmas wish list—shit that no parent could ever possibly afford and no child could ever possibly deserve. And every year, my parents would tell me before Christmas that I would NOT be getting the little race car I saw on ...
West Coast NFL Teams Have A Huge Advantage In Night Games
You know one side of this by heart: Teams on Pacific time get slaughtered when they travel across the country to play an early game, and not only that, they are losers against the spread too. But there's a corollary that might be just as compelling: It seems that west coast teams annihilate east coa...
No Team Can Mount A Comeback Quite Like The Warriors Can

Nets Give Lawrence Frank Four Years Of Detention
Jason Kidd and the Nets have "reassigned" head assistant Lawrence Frank, and following the change, Frank will no longer be on the bench during games or at practice. If that sounds like being fired, it is, except for the part where Frank owes Kidd a book report every day....
Why The Yankees Rebuild From Without
Jacoby Ellsbury is a very good outfielder, signed at market rate, who projects to age well but in five or six years will nevertheless be one of the more overpaid players in the game. But that's a problem for another day, and despite dropping $238 million on Ellsbury and Brian McCann, the Yankees sti...

Nuggets center Timofey Mozgov had a fantastic game last night, finishing with 17 points and 20 rebounds against the band of desiccated corpses that currently makes up the Nets roster.

The Badassest Rookie Linebacker The NFL Has Ever Seen
I was never a Bears fan, although I do admire the uniform — orange, black and white together just feels football-y, somehow — and I bawled like a crazy person while reading I Am Third and again while watching Brian's Song. (Damn you, James Caan. Damn you to tearjerking hell.) But recently I came acr...

Angry, Dumb Red Sox Fans Call Jacoby Ellsbury A "Trader"
Free agent outfielder Jacoby Ellsbury has agreed to a deal with the Yankees. He used to play for the Red Sox. In case you are an alien or a baby born today who just learned how to use a computer, the Red Sox and Yankees are big rivals. Anyway, Boston fans are mad about Ellsbury being a traitor for ...
Yankees Sign Jacoby Ellsbury To Seven-Year Deal, Because They Can
The New York Yankees have reportedly signed Jacoby Ellsbury, because eat it. They don't care. The Yankees get who they want. (Unless it's Cliff Lee.)...
Referee Accidentally Aids Israeli Basketball Team's Game-Winning Three
Down by one, Hapoel Jerusalem's Yotam Halperin hit a three-pointer with a lucky bounce to take a two-point lead over Maccabi Tel Aviv. But it took a well-placed referee for Halperin to get his game-winner....
