What Bad Thing Did You Do As A Kid?
One day, when I was in fourth or fifth grade, I was waiting for the school bus. Few activities suck more than waiting for a bus in the middle of winter in Minnesota, especially when that bus is just going to take you to dumb school, so I was, obviously, in a foul mood. Eventually a school bus rounde...
Report: James Dolan Agrees Rockettes Should "Be Tolerant Of Intolerance" And Perform At Trump's Inauguration

The murder case against former pro wrestler Jimmy “Superfly” Snuka has been dismissed, according to multiple reports.

Monday, Alabama announced via a Nick Saban statement that new FAU head coach Lane Kiffin will not join the Crimson Tide on the sideline or in the booth as offensive coordinator for its upcoming rematch with Clemson in the national title game.

One of the under-looked perks of tennis stardom is that you’re often being handed marsupials. Rafael Nadal got to hold this koala at the start of the Brisbane International. His grin and the bear’s claws appear to be saying very different things....
Missouri Governor-Elect Takes Bazooka To MLS Hopeful's Stadium Financing Plans
Missouri’s recently elected governor, Republican Eric Greitens, is a former Navy SEAL, a devoted humanitarian, and a man who ran a campaign ad that was just 20 seconds of him firing a Gatling gun. All of that means he doesn’t take any shit, not when justice is at stake. The vampires trying to suck o...

Giannis Antetokounmpo Could Reach Out From Milwaukee And Slap You With His Dumb Arms
Giannis Antentkounmpo might be the basketball player you’d be most idiotic to emulate—he was just built differently. If you’d like a close-read of his physique and its every freakish feature, you can find that. But today we are just here to talk about these arms....
Chip Kelly Is Playing The Game
The NFL is lousy with head coaches who have been given multiple chances at running a team despite achieving little on-field success. A coach can fail, get fired, and still find himself patrolling a sideline within a year, and the best way to go about pulling off such a feat is to control one’s own n...
Louisville Women Trick Duke Into Defending Wrong Basket

Early in tonight’s Sugar Bowl, Brent Musburger called Joe Mixon “one of the best” and said he hoped the Oklahoma running back, suspended a year for breaking four bones in a woman’s face, made it to the NFL. That upset a lot of people; Musburger then unwisely responded to the reaction....
Giants WRs Flew To Miami For One Hell Of A Party
The Giants’ game against Washington meant literally nothing (except to Washington, which needed a win to make the playoffs and lost, lol), and it appears the receiving corps must’ve been pretty anxious just to get the damn thing over with. Because as soon as it ended, WRs Odell Beckham Jr., Sterling...
What The Hell, Bob Costas

How Will You Spend Your Saturday Instead Of Watching Raiders-Texans?
The nice thing about the NFL is that it doesn’t worry about hurting feelings with its TV scheduling. It’ll flex terrible teams out of primetime and not even hide the reason why. So for wild card weekend, when there’s almost always one obvious stinker, you merely need to ignore the early game on Satu...

Jed York Finally Ensures No Good Coach Will Work For Him Any Time Soon<em></em>
It’s hard to believe that, not that long ago, the San Francisco 49ers were a good team with a good head coach.
