Rick Reilly's Latest Self-Plagiarism Is The Worst
The most generous reading of Rick Reilly's latest column, large parts of which are lifted wholesale from a 2009 Rick Reilly column, is that he just wants to give readers something from a time he wasn't mailing things in. But that 2009 column was awful too. Rick Reilly disdains you so much that he's ...

Dick Vitale thinks you should give up if you can't "get lucky" with some Barry Manilow on the ol' gramophone.

J.R. Smith Torches Anthony Bennett For Nasty Dunk
Here we have J.R. Smith turning Cavs rookie Anthony Bennett from player to spectator.
