Markelle Fultz Says Be More Like An Egg
Struggling (and visibly injured) Sixers rookie Markelle Fultz is in what one might call “hot water.” Through three losses and 59 minutes of run, the first overall pick has shot 34 percent from the field, bricked half his free throws with toddler form, taken just six shots from beyond nine feet, and...
The Cowboys' Safety Had To Replace Their Kicker And He Wasn't That Bad
Cowboys defensive back Jeff Heath, best known for almost decapitating a guy on the football field, was a kicker for Lake Orion High School (Mich.), and once hit a dramatic, game-winning 49-yard field goal. When Dan Bailey hurt his groin in Sunday’s game against the 49ers, Heath had to fill in....
Artemi Panarin's Dog Is The World's Cutest Forechecker
Practicing stickhandling can be a dull, repetitive exercise for any hockey player. But Columbus Blue Jackets winger Artemi Panarin, who’s already extremely good with the puck, has found a way to make it the highlight of anyone’s day....
Kurt Angle’s Return To Wrestling Was A Beautiful Disaster
WWE was in a bind going into last night’s Tables, Ladders and Chairs pay-per-view. A contagious viral illness is going through the Raw locker room. Bray Wyatt was pulled from his match against Finn Balor. Roman Reigns was pulled from the main event, scuttling the Shield reunion....
Your Modesty Will Never Protect You, No Matter What Mayim Bialik Says<em></em>
The Jewish laws of feminine modesty were the topic of a lot of conversations at the all-girls Orthodox yeshiva high school I attended in Brooklyn. We were required to wear uniforms to school—long, dark pleated skirts and long-sleeved white blouses—and were expected to dress according to similar stan...
The Timberwolves' Cool Youths Mushed The Thunder
When Carmelo Anthony’s high-arcing three from the left wing splashed in, to give his Oklahoma City Thunder a 113-112 fourth-quarter lead over the Timberwolves last night, it also left just under five seconds on the game clock. Time enough for Minnesota’s Andrew Wiggins to do this:...
Everton Fire Ronald Koeman, Who Really Fucked This Up
There are a few easy ways to define the worst team in the Premier League. One of them is to find the team with the least amount of talent. Another is to find the team most likely to get relegated. Everton, despite being 18th in the table after yesterday’s 5-2 loss to Arsenal, don’t (yet) fit either ...
Seahawks Do That Goddamn Double Catch Again<em></em><em></em>
In the box score, this play that gave the Seahawks some breathing room against the Giants is simply a 38-yard touchdown from Russell Wilson to Paul Richardson, but live, it’s a lot to unpack....

Innocent Beer Cruelly Destroyed By Neglect, Quincy Acy
What’s with this Nets fan, who just sits there and lets his beer get blasted to hell by an errant Quincy Acy pass? Hey, look alive, buddy!...
Eric Bledsoe Has A Special Message For All You Suns Fans Out There
The Phoenix Suns are truly awful. They’ve played three games this season, and lost them by a combined 92 points; their best young players are hilariously incapable of playing winning basketball; and their best veteran player, Eric Bledsoe, seems to have seen enough of this shit:...
Mitch Trubisky Completed Four Passes And The Bears Won<em></em>
A vintage defensive performance from the Chicago Bears and a complete lack of trust in their rookie quarterback were enough to soundly beat the Carolina Panthers today, 17-3. Chicago achieved a win with a pair of Eddie Jackson defensive touchdowns, while QB Mitchell Trubisky threw only seven passes,...
Marc Gasol Gave The Business To The Warriors Last Night
Overshadowed, somewhat, by the ejections of Steph Curry and Kevin Durant, and the general improbability of the Warriors ever losing—let alone losing to a team starting both Andrew Harrison and Jarell Martin—was another instant classic performance by Marc Gasol, who is wonderful....

Mike Wallace Leaves Game After Scary Hit To The Head [Update]
The Vikings’ Andrew Sendejo drew an early unnecessary roughness penalty today against the Ravens when he went in head first against Baltimore receiver Mike Wallace, who was already in the process of being tackled. Wallace’s helmet flew far away from him after the hit, and he stayed down while being ...
What Are The Sixers Even Doing With Markelle Fultz?
It’s too early—far, far too early, in fact—for any conclusions or pronouncements having to do with Markelle Fultz as an NBA prospect. But if you’ve watched the first three games of Fultz’s career, I think you’re probably feeling the same concern I am this morning: How sure are we that Fultz is healt...
Giannis Antetokounmpo Dedicates Best Game Yet To His Late Father
Giannis Antetokounmpo, the 22-year-old Milwaukee star who keeps improving his freakish set of skills, hit a new high last night in a 113-110 win over Portland. Antetokounmpo dropped a career-best 44 points in a dramatic contest, announcing his full transformation from fascinating beanpole of potenti...
Yankees Fail To Win 41st American League Pennant; Astros Win First
The Houston Astros are headed to their second World Series after claiming the American League pennant for the first time, downing the Yankees in the ALCS’s deciding seventh game 4-0 thanks to five shutdown innings from starter Charlie Morton, some well-timed defense, and Lance McCullers Jr. shreddin...
Stephen Curry, Kevin Durant Ejected In Warriors Loss To Memphis
Stephen Curry and Kevin Durant finished the game in the locker room as the Warriors took their second loss of the season in a 111-101 loss to the Grizzlies. Curry was ejected for throwing his mouthpiece; it’s unclear what earned Durant the heave-ho, though both ejections came in the final minute of ...
