Duke Ends Grayson Allen's Indefinite Suspension After Just One Game
All it took for Duke to end the “indefinite suspension” of star shooting guard/humility-themed motivational poster Grayson Allen was one loss to Virginia Tech.

The Blazers Are Bad And Tired Of Being Lectured By Festus Ezeli
Following last season’s surprise second-round playoff appearance, the Portland Trail Blazers are 15-21 and struggling badly.

Yesterday against the Grizzlies he set a Lakers record with 36 threes over his last 8 games, going 56 percent from the arc in that span. (For a slightly less arbitrary, ...
Harry Kane Doesn't Look Like A Great Player, And Yet He Is<em></em>
Just look at that face. If you showed a bunch of people who didn’t know any better a picture of Tottenham’s unassuming star forward Harry Kane and asked them to guess what he does for a living, I’m quite confident that “pro athlete” would rank way down the list, somewhere behind “accountant,” “hands...

Brandon Marshall Compares The Jets' Season To Wearing A Dirty Diaper For A Year
The New York Jets negotiated all offseason with a quarterback who ended up with a total of 12 passing touchdowns and 23 turnovers; tried out two other quarterbacks who were both injured; and never touched the second-round QB they inexplicably drafted. The team finished this season at the bottom of ...
Bad Soccer Teen Cut For Savage Tweets To Premier League Player
Alfie Barker, the 19-year-old striker who before today played in England’s 10th division, watched yesterday’s Bournemouth-Arsenal match and had some thoughts.

Jae Crowder Didn't Appreciate Boston Fans Cheering For Gordon Hayward
During pregame introductions at last night’s Jazz-Celtics game, Jazz forward Gordon Hayward received a warm welcome from the Boston crowd.

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...
