Horny Bills Fans Continue To Have No Concept Of Shame
A reader sent along some photos from Sunday’s Patriots-Bills game, and we have to ask, why do Bills fans insist on utilizing their partners’ pants like dead Tauntauns?...
Julian Edelman Goes Airborne
I love this photo (by Tom Szczerbowski/Getty Images) of Bills safety Aaron Williams attempting to tackle Julian Edelman in the third quarter of the Patriots’ 40-32 win in Buffalo. It looks like the future magnet-assisted sport of hover-football....
Did Chip Kelly Outsmart Himself?
The Eagles are 0-2, and although it’s certainly unfair to write off a team after two games, you wouldn’t blame Eagles fans for looking at Chip Kelly with eyebrows raised as high as they’ll go. Is this—a completely dysfunctional squad that can’t be bothered to beat a Cowboys team down Tony Romo and D...
Aaron Rodgers Makes Fun Of Russell Wilson By Crediting God For The Packers' Win
After the Packers’ 27-17 win over the Seahawks last night, Aaron Rodgers gave the credit to God. Which wouldn’t be a thing, normally: athletes do that all the time. Except Rodgers is already on record as believing God doesn’t care about Packers-Seahawks games. This was a shot at Russell Wilson....
Bills Safety Aaron Williams Leaves In Ambulance After Injury (UPDATE)
In the third quarter of today’s game against the Patriots, Bills safety Aaron Williams suffered a serious-looking injury while attempting to tackle Julian Edelman near the end zone. Williams moved his legs and neck post-fall, then was immobilized, lifted onto a stretcher, and, after a ten minute del...

Notre Dame Defensive Back Knocked Out With Severe Knee Injury Suffered While Celebrating
Sophomore Fighting Irish defensive back Drue Tranquill left today’s game against Georgia Tech in the first half after suffering what appears (and, from NBC’s microphones, sounds like) a terrible knee injury amidst celebrating breaking up a pass in the Notre Dame end zone. ...
A Hot-Pepper IPA For Tasteful Tough Guys
Earlier this week, it was announced that Anheuser-Busch InBev, the Belgo-Brazilian conglomerate that owns Budweiser, Stella Artois, and a great many other beers you hate, is trying to acquire SABMiller, the British and South African concern responsible for all the Miller, Coors, Leinenkugel (it’s tr...
Michael Carter-Williams Threw A Perfect First Pitch If He Was Aiming For The Cameraman
Bucks point guard Michael Carter-Williams threw out the first pitch at Thursday’s Brewers game, and it was accurate, provided that Carter-Williams was trying to hit the cameraman....
ESPN's Matthew Berry Sells Credibility To DraftKings
You know how it’s barely Week 2 of the NFL season and you’re already sick and fucking tired of DraftKings commercials? Well, good luck, because ESPN fantasy writing is now just one long DraftKings commercial too....
Dabo Swinney Needs To Work On His Whip, And Also His Nae Nae
Clemson had a close call last night, escaping with a 20-17 victory over unranked Louisville. A win on national TV naturally calls for some locker-room dancing, and head coach Dabo Swinney was happy to get in on the action....
Von Miller Isn't Impressed By "Fake Gronk" Travis Kelce
The Kansas City Chiefs are seemingly allergic to throwing to their wide receivers—a true WR still hasn’t caught a touchdown pass since 2013—but Travis Kelce is one of Alex Smith’s favorite targets. The tight end’s size and ability to break tackles is quite similar to Rob Gronkowski, the Gronk Lite t...

Tyrod Taylor's Coin-Eating Skills Are Unimpressive
Bills quarterback Tyrod Taylor had a chat with Lindsay Czarniak on ESPN Wednesday night, and as he rattled off fun facts about himself, we all learned that he accidentally ate a quarter when he was a kid. Big deal, I say....
Texans Coach Refuses To Reveal Which Bad Quarterback He Will Start
Houston Texans head coach Bill O’Brien has to decide whether he will start Brian Hoyer or Ryan Mallett at quarterback this Sunday. Both played okay in Week 1, but neither are good enough to make the decision one that really matters. Choosing between Mallett and Hoyer is like deciding whether to star...
Here's One Really Sad Fact About The Jaguars
The Jacksonville Jaguars are bad. But just how bad are they? For more, we turn to a five-day-old story involving David Garrard....
Taco Bell's Dare Devil Loaded Grillers Are Brilliant And Gross, As Usual
Taco Bell is one of the few old-style American fast-food chains still thriving in a reshaped marketplace that increasingly rewards freshness, quality, and nutrition—or at least the perceptions thereof—rather than simply the thrift, speed, and suspect beef upon which the industry was built. The faux-...
<i>Sicario</i> Is An Unrelenting Horror Story Disguised As A Drug-War Action Movie
Sicario is a movie that rumbles. I mean that literally: Through the first half of the film, there’s rarely a scene in which something isn’t growling or grumbling in the background. Sometimes the sound comes from something big, like a passing APC engine or a helicopter blade, and sometimes from somet...
Byron Maxwell Had A Very Bad Night
The Eagles threw a decent amount of money at Byron Maxwell this offseason, signing the former Seahawks cornerback to a $63 million contract with $22 million guaranteed. The team was banking on the 6-foot-1 Maxwell to use his physical play in coverage and turn into Philadelphia’s top corner. He’d pro...
You Will Not Win Money Playing Daily Fantasy
“[T]he top 100 ranked players enter 330 winning lineups per day, and the top 10 players combine to win an average of 873 times daily. The remaining field of approximately 20,000 players tracked by Rotogrinders wins just 13 times per day, on average.” [Bloomberg]...
