LeBron James Poses For Picture, Kisses Lady During Game

Corso, Saban, Red Lightning All Cameo In Title Game's Turning Point
For most of the first half last night, Auburn looked unbeatable while Florida State looked like a team that spent its season beating up on nobodies. Just before halftime, that changed. A masterful Jameis Winston scramble on third down sparked FSU's first touchdown, one that cut the Tigers' lead to ...

A.J. McCarron's Mom On Jameis Winston: "Am I Listening To English?"
The 'Bama quarterback's mom tweeted this out while Jameis Winston was being interviewed after winning the BCS championship. She obviously deleted it quickly, but not quickly enough. Not a good look, Dee Dee. Not a good look at all....

Jameis Winston's Accuser Didn't Have A Chance
The decision not to charge Jameis Winston didn't teach us anything about the Florida State QB's guilt or innocence, but it did hammer home an old lesson: The system is stacked against sexual assault victims....

YOU ARE OLD: Bradley Beal Wore "23" Because Of LeBron, Not MJ
Bradley Beal always wore the number 23, from AAU ball to preps to his single year of college. He had to switch to No. 3 when he was drafted by the Wizards, since that number's unofficially retired for one Michael Jeffrey Jordan. You'd think Beal would be honored. But no, it turns out, he wore 23 bec...

"Distractions" Are Bullshit
So Chris Kluwe blew up the Internet last week with this post, entitled "I Was An NFL Player Until I Was Fired By Two Cowards And A Bigot," and the sports world instantly split into two factions: Those who cheered on Kluwe, and those who thought he was a disgruntled ex-punter looking for revenge and ...

Why The Chiefs Lost
Chiefs players might feel terrible this morning, but they pulled off a rather impressive feat last night. Despite losing Jamaal Charles, inarguably their best offensive player, to a possible concussion six plays into the game, Kansas City's offense still produced 44 points. It's a shame that the Col...

Jamaal Charles Left The Game After This Play
Jamaal Charles left the game during the Chiefs first drive of the game (a touchdown-scoring drive, regardless) after this hit/tackle. It looks like his helmet hits the ground and he clearly was slow getting up. According to the Bob Glauber he is being evaluated for a concussion and his return is lis...

LeBron Fell So Hard He Left Skid Marks On The Court

Why That Dumb AIDS Tweet Was So Captivating

LeBron James Saved Christmas With These Two Dunks
Usually, a LeBron James dunk is a thing of power, grace, and a little too much efficiency. All the power of a locomotive, and all the creativity of one as well. So when LeBron and Dwyane Wade interrupted whatever idle conversations you were having with your relatives yesterday with two preposterous...

No, NESN, That's Not How You Pronounce Maurice "Rocket" Richard's Name
Maurice Richard is one of ice hockey's most legendary and greatest players. The Canadiens winger was so good that upon his retirement in 1960, the Hockey Hall Of Fame waived its usual waiting period and immediately inducted him. You might think, then, that a Boston Bruins hockey broadcast on NESN mi...
