This summer’s transfer window isn’t even officially open yet and we’re already seeing some crazy, record-breaking fees being thrown about.

Maryland Baseball Coach Gets Ejected With Explosive Rant
Maryland baseball coach John Szefc got ejected during a tie game in the eighth inning today after getting pretty heated when one of his players, outfielder Marty Costes, was struck by a pitch.

John Terry's Questionable Substitution In His Last Chelsea Match Was Probably Fine But He Still Sucks
On Sunday, Chelsea captain and one of the most unlikeable men in sports John Terry bid farewell to his club of 22 years after he was subbed off in the 26th minute of the club’s 5-1 drubbing of Sunderland.

Could This Single-A Catcher With One MLB At-Bat Make The All-Star Game?
All-star games are an inelegant but closest-we’re-gonna-get answer to beer-fueled debates on whether League’s Best Player could beat League’s Other Best Player in a game with the finest supporting casts available.

The Lakers Narrowly Avoided Total Catastrophe At The Lottery
The Los Angeles Lakers will get the second overall pick in the 2017 NBA Draft, which is a fine return for a shit-filled season of tanking that very nearly went up in flames thanks to an inexplicable five-game winning streak at the end of the year. Not only is the team in the driver’s seat to pick Lo...

Ryan Kesler Is Making Ryan Johansen So Mad
The Western Conference Finals were always going to be decided up top. Nashville, without a ton of scoring from its depth forwards, relies heavily on its top line centered by Ryan Johansen, and they’ve been ultra-hot in these playoffs. Anaheim’s shutdown line, anchored by Ryan Kesler, can certainly f...

In his “Coach’s Corner” bit after the first quarter of last night’s Game 4 between the Celtics and the Wizards, Boston coach Brad Stevens explained to TNT’s David Aldridge how his team had shrugged off an early Washington run to end the period leading 24-20. “Even when it was 8-0 them,” he said, “we...
