The Sports Highlight Of The Day Is This Little Cat Launching A Sneak Attack
Kittens are cute. So cute, in fact, that it can seem unimaginable they would be capable of hatching diabolical plots like stealing food off the counter, clawing your foot if the foot moves under a blanket, peeing repeatedly on your favorite rug, or fashioning itself into a cat cannonball and launchi...
Tom Thibodeau Seems Pretty Okay With Jimmy Butler Taking A Doo-Doo On His Whole Team
Jimmy Butler does not want to play for the Minnesota Timberwolves.

Saquon Barkley Is So Good And It Just Doesn't Matter
The Giants are the worst sort of bad team: one whose braintrust clearly believed was a contender for a playoff spot in the offseason, only to be revealed as a total moribund disaster once the regular season began. Most of this is because Eli Manning is a husk of himself and presently either unable o...
Simone Biles Unveils New Vault No Woman Has Ever Done Before, Remains Invincible
Yesterday, USA Gymnastics hosted its selection camp to help choose the five-person team for the upcoming world championships in Doha. I say “help choose” because the results from this competition—or any competition for that matter—aren’t truly determinative of who will be named or not. Final team co...
You Can't Hide Eli Manning
Here’s a fun thing to think about: Has an offense with the quality of skill players that the New York Giants possess ever looked this bad?

Report: Eli Manning Is Losing The Giants' Locker Room
By picking running back Saquon Barkley second overall in what was a quarterback-rich draft class, the Giants let it be known they were all-in this year on Eli Manning, who will turn 38 in January.

Which NBA Team Is Most Like Your Favorite NBA Team?
It’s almost time for the tip-off of the new basketball season, and you know what that means: It’s time to point out that not only does the NBA exist, but that other things also exist.

Wolves Cancel Today's Practice, Block Out Media, And We're Talking Mark Wahlberg Now
Jimmy Butler had an astounding Wednesday.

Vladimir Guerrero Jr. Taking BP Is 35 Seconds Of ASMR Bliss
There are no inconsequential games left in this rapidly narrowing baseball season, and very few moments that won’t be suffused with at least some degree of tension.
