This Is The Worst Indians Fan
When cutting to commercial after the end of the top of the seventh inning, Fox cameras found this Indians fan rocking a headdress and combo blackface and redface and lingered on him for a full ten seconds. Perhaps focusing on this sad-looking man in racist cosplay is their version of a silent protes...
The Mavericks And Pacers Set Basketball Back A Few Decades On This Sequence
The NBA is back, which means it’s time for cool highlights, like dunks, blocks, and Charles Barkley’s bad takes. But none of those live up to the majesty and splendor of, uh, whatever this is....

Here is a timeline of events:...
Joel Embiid Says He Learned To Shoot By Watching White People Online
Joel Embiid, who’ll make his NBA debut tonight, wants our attention, so badly. He seeks it in many ways: by guzzling Shirley Temples by the syrupy pitcher, by clowning on Andrew Wiggins, or by publicly asking out Rihanna. And we give it to him, maybe a little begrudgingly, because the content is goo...
This Simple Trick Ensures You Never Have To Worry About Toasty Crumbs
If you’re like most of us, you love eating toasted sandwiches for lunch. What you don’t like are all those toasty crumbs that end up scattered everywhere. The good news? You don’t need to live like this any longer. ...
Let's Talk About Cool Pitcher Names

College Football Coaches Are Getting Insane Buyout Clauses
Here’s a tip for college football fans whose favorite teams may or may not fall on hard times at some point in the near future: don’t bother ranting about how the coach needs to be fired, because there’s a good chance the school can’t afford to do so. ...

Kyle Schwarber Paid Off Joe Maddon's Faith
Anything better than a four-strikeout night for Kyle Schwarber would have been a pleasant surprise for the big beefy boy whose first at-bats against major-league pitching since April 7 came against Corey Kluber and Andrew Miller in Game 1 of the World Series. ...
Steven Adams Was Too Busy Watching Dope Anime To See The Warriors Get Crushed
Given the ass-kicking that former Thunder star Kevin Durant suffered in his first game with the Warriors, it’s not unreasonable for reporters to be curious about what Durant’s former teammates thought of the game. Unfortunately for them, Steven Adams was too busy watching anime to cook up any juicy ...
The Sub2 Project Takes Credit For Kenenisa Bekele's Near-World Record Marathon<em></em>
Ethiopian Almaz Ayana set a new world record of 29 minutes 17.45 seconds in the women’s 10,000 meters at the Rio Olympics. About a month later, fellow Ethiopian Kenenisa Bekele sped through the streets of Berlin, covering 26.2 miles in 2:03:03. That’s just six seconds shy of the world record, and a ...
I Will Read Every Story About How Terrific Marshawn Lynch Is
You’ve now got your reading assignment for the day: In the Seattle Times, reporter Jayson Jenks asked a handful of Seahawks if they have any particular memories of Marshawn Lynch being a cool guy. It seems they like talking about their former teammate as much as I like hearing about him....
So, The Warriors Got Their Asses Kicked
Let’s briefly acknowledge all the required caveats: that this was just the first game of a long season, that recent history has proven super teams always take time to gel, that the Golden State Warriors are still going to kick tons of ass this year....
Terry Francona Has Big Plans For Corey Kluber
Here’s something that should put the fear of god and of the two-seam fastball into the Cubs: Corey Kluber still had plenty in the tank when he was pulled after six-plus innings. As dominant as Kluber’s nine-strikeout performance was, Terry Francona is holding him back. He’s saving him....
Corey Kluber, Goddamn
The Indians have been nigh unbeatable this postseason thanks to a bullpen that’s seemingly incapable of getting roughed up and a propensity for whacking big dingers. They lived up to expectations on both fronts tonight, but they also have Corey Kluber to thank for utterly confounding Cubs hitters al...

In his first game without Tim Duncan since the Mesozoic Era, Gregg Popovich got wistful and told a touching story about his relationship with old friend Steve Kerr....
LeBron James's Dunks Are So Violent
The Cavaliers are cruising in the first game of the NBA season, with a nice healthy fourth quarter lead over the Knicks. It’s gone about how you’d probably expect. Kristaps Porzingis has loped around the court and hit a few shots, Kyrie Irving has put Brandon Jennings in the toilet, and, of course, ...
Charles Barkley Says Klay Thompson Is The Second-Best Player In The NBA
The NBA season is starting more or less right now. What better way to kick the proceedings off than to enjoy TNT’s Charles Barkley offering his first astounding take of the year....

Is Juan Martin Del Potro Back?
The large, hard-charging Argentine is winning things again. Juan Martin del Potro just captured his first ATP title in two years at the Stockholm Open, an event he’d only qualified for by way of wild card. Most of those two years he spent addressing chronic wrist injuries and free-falling through th...
