This San Diego Radio Station Has Existed For A Month And Is Already A Disaster
At the beginning of March, Entercom announced the launch of 97.3 The Machine, a new San Diego-based station with talk shows and sports programming. It’s not even the end of the month, and The Machine has already been involved in a feud and a fuckup that might jeopardize its relationship with the Pad...
All Bars Should Do Two Things
Bars—except those that only take cash, and more power to those—would all be improved by doing two things that are already common in some parts of the country. It appears that nearly all bars in the South do these two things, for instance, while anecdotal (though intensive) reporting suggests that no...
Johnny Manziel Offers Refreshingly Lucid Defense Of Colin Kaepernick
However you happen to feel about Colin Kaepernick, it is for sure interesting to observe that in the same month in which Johnny Manziel got a workout in front of a hearty handful of NFL scouts, Kaepernick was also out throwing the old pigskin, in front of roughly no one. This dynamic, and its associ...
David Brooks Seems Extremely Confused (About Amphibians)
Amphibians, as every little kid knows, are born in water, as larvae, breathing water through gills. Later they undergo metamorphosis, and emerge from the water with (in most cases) air-breathing respiratory systems. Even after they’ve taken to land, though, they retain highly permeable skin that can...
Hey, Look, It's Stan Wawrinka And Novak Djokovic
Tennis missed its lost injured boys. I missed seeing a dude look like he a sipped through a six-pack, dozed off on the couch, toppled out of it, peed golden-brown, shuffled off to his match and immediately began lashing 100 mph backhand winners. There are a lot of professional tennis players, but th...
Nick Kyrgios Told A Heckler To "Shut The Fuck Up" And Said He's Never Spoken To Colin Kaepernick

Alvin Kamara Almost Didn't Run Out This 106-Yard Kickoff Return TD
The Saints’ Alvin Kamara—the most fun surprise of the NFL season—appeared to have some second thoughts about taking out his first touch of the game on the Bucs’ kickoff.

Here's What The Houston Texans Did Instead Of Signing Colin Kaepernick
On Oct. 29, the Houston Texans lost to the Seattle Seahawks, 41-38, a hard-fought game in which rookie QB Deshaun Watson put on an entertaining, four-touchdown, 403-yard performance. Houston was 3-4 but still sat at the edge of the playoff hunt in a weak conference, and Watson had led the offense t...
