Kareem Hunt Is Still Fast

All three j...

Lamar Jackson Threw Away His Shot
If it’s possible for a reigning Heisman winner to fly under the radar, that’s what Louisville’s Lamar Jackson was doing at the beginning of this season.

Idiot On The Field Slips Several Tackles Before Being Detained By His Own Lack Of A Vertical
Here’s a dipshit invading the field in Houston tonight, as is the Idiot’s way. He dodges a few tackles but finds his path blocked by the very low right field wall; it’s still too tall for his limited leaping ability (though it looks like that might be an usher playing defense on him). ...
