Warriors Beaten On Just The Most Busted, Chaotic Dwyane Wade Buzzer-Beater
The Heat beat the Warriors Wednesday night in Miami, 126–125, in an outrageously fun basketball game. The Heat led by as many as 24 points, but the Warriors, who very often cruise distractedly through big chunks of regular season games, roared back into it and had the lead in the final minute of reg...

Nick Foles And His Dong Are Now Free To Go Elsewhere
Eagles general manager Howie Roseman made no attempt to yank anyone’s chain during his presser today at the NFL combine in Indianapolis: Nick Foles will not be given the franchise tag, which means Nick Foles and his reportedly gigantic hog will hit free agency.

Maybe Brad Stevens Isn't Quite Up To <i>This</i>
“We’re just not together. Plain and simple.” That’s Boston’s Marcus Smart, in the aftermath of the 118-95 ass-whomping his Celtics received at the hands of Pascal Siakam and the Toronto Raptors last night. By my informal count, this is something like the 917th time in this disappointing Boston seaso...

Evander Kane Fought Zdeno Chara And It Went About How You'd Expect
Evander Kane is not a small man, despite what the video looks like. He’s listed at 6-foot-2 and 210 pounds. He’s also not an inexperienced fighter, nor often overmatched. It’s a matter of perspective, as it always is when someone’s trying and failing to punch Zdeno Chara....

Boban Lives!
It looked real bad when huge basketball man Boban Marjanovic went down in a heap against the Pelicans Monday night. His leg twisted to an alarming angle, and he was unable to put any weight on it at all, and he seemed to be in a ton of pain. And when huge fellows like Boban crab-meat their lower leg...

Sweaty Blue Jays GM Offers Desperately Flimsy Pretext For Keeping Vlad Jr. In The Minors
It will suck for everyone when the Blue Jays make the inevitable, cynical-as-shit decision to plug Vladimir Guerrero Jr. back into their minor league system at the start of this season, in order to rig his MLB service time and extend team control for as long as possible. Young Vlad will be getting s...
