What The Hell Is This ESPN Johnny Manziel Segment?
ESPN’s Sunday NFL Countdown show is three hours long every week, and there’s only so many times Matt Hasselbeck can say something like, “The Chicago Bears defense just wants to win this week, and you need a defense that wants to win in order to succeed in the National Football League.” So it’s no su...
Ass Team Of The Week: Everything Is Wrong With The Arizona Cardinals
There are often discrete reasons that go a long way toward explaining a bad team’s badness.

Let's All Be Really Wrong About The 2018 NFL Season

Roger Federer Got Soaked
Pick a handful of points at random from Roger Federer’s fourth-round U.S. Open loss to John Millman and you are liable to find some extremely un-Federer moments.

Q&A: Pepper Johnson On Drinking With Bill Belichick, Spygate, And Why The Jets Can't Get It Together
When I got Pepper Johnson on the phone, I had no idea what to expect. I sure as hell didn’t think we’d talk for four hours. But we did, and I still can’t believe it. I don’t think I’ve talked to anyone else for four consecutive hours in my life. But Pepper’s got stories. ...

Papa John's (The Pizza) Is Very, Very Sorry About What Papa John (The Guy) Did
Papa John’s is ready for the hurt to end. This wounded nation expected better of Papa “John” Schnatter, and his racist remarks have cut us deep.

You'll Never Guess What Alabama Plans To Spend Another $600 Million On

Johnny Manziel Jacked Up In Second CFL Start
Johnny Manziel’s second CFL start went much better than his first.

I am not trying to oversell anything...
The UFC's Greatest-Ever Champion Finally Loses
For a few perilous moments, it seemed like a freak accident would undo Henry Cejudo before he even had a real chance to fight Demetrious Johnson.
