The Best (Of Who's Left) At Indian Wells
INDIAN WELLS, Calif.—When you touch down in the desert in the middle of March, they pretty much know why you’re there. They plant a big-ass screen right at the arrivals gate and the tennis players loom nearly life-sized. That’s how it was possible to know, within 15 minutes of landing, that Andy Mur...
Nick Kyrgios In Sun And Shade
INDIAN WELLS, Calif.—The camera strips so much from tennis. We know this, clearly, since we pay good money and haul our bodies into discomfort just to see it up close. Part of what it removes is all the little interstitial, untelevised moments that might give flesh to the personalities on court. Mom...
Lawsuit: Jets More Than Doubled Their Vicodin Usage In Just Two Years<em></em>

Bob Knight On Former Indiana Bosses: "I Hope They're All Dead"
Legendary former Indiana men’s basketball coach Bob Knight coached Indiana for 29 seasons until he was fired by the Hoosiers in 2000 over allegations that he was being an abusive asshole to his players. Knight’s dismissal was famously contentious, and Indiana students burned effigies of university l...
Andy Murray Will Just Relax And Giggle While His Rivals Tear Each Other Apart
Andy Murray is a lucky dude at Indian Wells, and he knows it. While all his foes try to slit each others’ throats in the bottom quarter of the draw—home to Novak Djokovic, Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal, Juan Martin del Potro, and Nick Kyrgios—the top seed plans to enjoy the gladiator games from his re...
The Indian Wells Men's Draw Is One Big Clusterfuck
Today, out in the Coachella Valley, the Indian Wells Masters will begin. It’s the highest-profile tennis tournament in the world after the four Grand Slams, dropping a fat bounty of 1000 ranking points on its winners. Everyone in the tennis universe should be excited, except for Serena Williams and ...
Will Serena Williams Be Ready For The French Open?<em></em>
It’s only March and the French Open isn’t until the end of May, but there’s reason to wonder (or in my case, as a devoted Serena disciple, worry) if Serena Williams will be ready to win the next grand slam of the year. She hasn’t played a competitive match since her Australian Open win and she annou...
Bill Polian Says Some Shit About Terrell Owens And Randy Moss
Former Indianapolis Colts executive Bill Polian opened up a can of takes that expired in 2007 to answer a question about whether he’d vote for Terrell Owens and Randy Moss for the Pro Football Hall Of Fame. (Owens has been eligible for the Hall for two years now but hasn’t yet been voted in; Moss wi...
Colts Lineman David Parry Arrested After Allegedly Hitting Golf Cart Taxi Driver And Stealing His Ride

Rob Manfred Has Started Meeting With Cleveland Ownership To Discuss Chief Wahoo
During the Cleveland Indians’ postseason run, MLB commissioner Rob Manfred hinted that he would speak to the team’s ownership about their horrifically racist logo during the offseason. Now, apparently, he’s followed through and begun that conversation—though the conversation appears to be totally de...
It's Time To Speculate About Peyton Manning's Political Aspirations
Now that Peyton Manning, the ad pitchman and NFL quarterback, has retired from one of his two day jobs, it’s natural to wonder what comes next. He’s still making a string of commercials, but he hasn’t made much visible progress toward finding new football-based employment. Jay Glazer reported earlie...
Indianapolis Colts Fire GM Ryan Grigson After Five Seasons
The Colts have fired general manager Ryan Grigson after five years in the role and a second straight 8-8 season, as first reported by ESPN....
Oh Hey, It's Jim Irsay
It had been 18 days since the end of the season since we’d heard hide or hair of Colts owner Jim Irsay, which was very strange considering the questionable job statuses of coach Chuck Pagano and GM Ryan Grigson, both of whom, after another disappointing season, seemed prime candidates to be replaced...
Tom Crean Loses His Shit After Players Attempt Last-Second Alley-Oop
Indiana flattened Rutgers on Sunday, beating the Scarlet Knights 76-57 in a mostly unremarkable game. There was one attention-grabbing moment after the final buzzer, when Indiana head coach Tom Crean ripped into one of his players for throwing a lob pass in the final seconds:...
Indiana Is Stumbling But OG Anunoby Is Still Snatching Souls
Indiana committed 14 turnovers and lost to Maryland Wednesday, falling to 1-3 in Big Ten play after starting the season No. 11 in the nation and climbing as high as No. 3. Hoosiers forward OG Anunoby was largely unspectacular off the bench, contributing just five points on 2-of-9 shooting; he did, h...
Where Is Jim Irsay And What Is Going On With The Colts?
Colts head coach Chuck Pagano and GM Ryan Grigson have spent the last few seasons conspiring to waste Andrew Luck’s prime and turn their team into one of the saddest sacks in the sad-sack AFC South. It’s reasonable, then, that everyone was prepared to see some blood spilled after the season ended, b...
