How British Boxing Is Taking Over The World
Boxing in the United Kingdom is rapidly moving toward a golden age, its first since before the start of the 20th century.

In August, Amar’e Stoudemire retired from the NBA and signed with Hapoel Jerusalem, an Israeli club he co-owns. “It’s also a spiritual journey as well.

During an interview with ESPN in which Knicks president Phil Jackson criticized LeBron James’s alleged attitude of entitlement during his tenure with the Heat, Jackson at one point referred to James’s group of friends as a “posse.” Maverick Carter, James’s friend and business partner, did not like t...
Eli Manning Read The Bengals' Defense Like A Coloring Book
Eli Manning was slinging (for better or for worse), Odell Beckham was doing his thing, the defense looked like a throwback to the best Tom Coughlin years in the way it pressured Andy Dalton, and even the much-maligned running game picked up a huge first down to run out the clock, something the Giant...

Flopping-Ass Marcus Smart Conned His Way Out Of A Humiliating Posterization
Perhaps Marcus Smart’s most distinctive basketball skill is his gift for flopping.

Mark Wahlberg's Boston Marathon Bombing Movie Looks Putrid
In the new trailer for Patriots Day, Kevin Bacon, playing head of Boston FBI Richard DesLauriers, looks at a ball bearing in the aftermath of the 2013 Boston Marathon bombing and says, “It’s terrorism.” This is the best part of the trailer, and probably not in the way that the filmmakers intended....

The USMNT Lost To Mexico And Everything Was All Right
Since they were first unveiled, I’ve had highly mixed feelings about the design of the 2016 USMNT jerseys, especially the road uniform. Someone at Nike decided the iconic red, white, and blue was passé and needed a black-and-maroon makeover. Why, who knows? The flag, perhaps, just isn’t cool enough....
Can Ghirmay Ghebreslassie Upend The Conventional Wisdom Of Pro Marathoning?
Ghirmay Ghebreslassie won the NYC Marathon in 2:07:51, but what received almost as much attention as his dominance of the competition was his extreme youth.
