Kevin Durant Blasts Media For Criticizing Kobe Bryant
If Derek Jeter’s retirement tour is any guide, Kobe Bryant’s final season is going to be a victory lap, with everyone competing to fawn over the career of a guy who, admittedly, was one of the most important players in the modern NBA. But that’s not enough for Kevin Durant, who took the media to tas...
Robert Flores Says No One's Mad About Travis Kelce's Touchdown Dance Because He's White
During today’s highlight of Travis Kelce’s touchdown dance from Sunday’s game against the Bills, SportsCenter’s Robert Flores openly wondered why no one was up in arms over the Chiefs’ tight end hitting the Quan. After all, Cam Newton caught hell for reveling in the Panthers’ win over the Titans two...
Calvin Pryor Blames Rishard Matthews's Injury On Ryan Tannehill's Bad Throw
On the Dolphins’ third play from scrimmage in their 38-20 loss to the Jets, Ryan Tannehill threw a short pass behind Rishard Matthews. When Matthews turned for the ball—it went past him—Jets safety Calvin Pryor slammed into Matthews’s torso. He would leave the game with what were described as rib an...
Former Teammates Perform Haka At Rugby Legend Jonah Lomu's Funeral

Odell Beckham's Catch Was Absolutely Ridiculous, Again

Hassan Whiteside Pens Moving Tribute To Kobe Bryant
Kobe Bryant’s retirement announcement will surely bring an outpouring of tributes from his fellow players, both young and old. A lot of these guys grew up idolizing Bryant, and now they have to say goodbye. What does one even say in this situation? How do you even begin to thank Kobe for all that he...
Fuck Off, Kobe
The funniest thing about Kobe Bryant’s retirement “announcement” yesterday is that Kobe Bryant was clearly the last person to know that this would be Kobe Bryant’s final season. Honestly, I thought he had announced it already, given that he’s a broken-down old mummy who can no longer play basketball...
Reports: Rob Gronkowski Is "Going To Be OK"
Like some sort of reverse Christmas morning, where the presents are torn ligaments and the tinsel is an early playoff exit (I’m still working on the analogy), Patriots fans had to be dreading waking up to details on Rob Gronkowski’s scary-looking knee injury, which caused the star TE to be carted of...
On A Special Night, Kobe Bryant Delivers In The Clutch Like Only 2015 Kobe Can
Indiana led the Lakers by three with ten seconds left at Staples Center. On the night Kobe Bryant announced his retirement, there was no question which player would take the game-tying shot to force overtime....
I Could Play Better Defense Than James Harden On This Play
Look, James Harden is an elite NBA player, who maybe should have been the MVP last season. He’s good and fine on offense, despite his early slump, but I am saying to you now that he is so bad as a defender that I could put forth, at a minimum, the effort to foul Lance Thomas in this specific instanc...
Kobe Bryant Announces Retirement Via Poem
Kobe Bryant—who at 37 is shooting just 32% on 17 shots per game and looks to be a very empty shell of his former self—announced his retirement tonight, in the form of a love poem to basketball on The Players’ Tribune. An excerpt:...
Jimmy Graham Carted Off With Apparent Serious Injury [UPDATE]
Seahawks tight end Jimmy Graham left today’s game against the Steelers with his leg in an air cast after coming down awkwardly in the fourth quarter while attempting to catch a pass in the end zone. We’re awaiting word on his condition, and will update as information becomes available....
Reggie Jackson To OKC Heckler: "Suck My Dick, Bitch-Ass Nigga"
Turns out Russell Westbrook wasn’t the only Oklahoma City resident with some choice words for former Thunder point guard Reggie Jackson. Jackson wasn’t too happy about this, telling our man, “Suck my dick, bitch-ass nigga.”...
Nobody In Sports Is Having As Much Fun As The Monmouth Bench
The Monmouth Hawks are a pretty good college basketball team (who’ve already upset Notre Dame, UCLA, and USC) attached to a improv troupe of a bench. What follows is a gallery of their best celebrations through the first six games of the season....
Someone Please Teach Blake Bortles The Rules Of Football
Blake my friend, you have to pass it before you go past the line of scrimmage. I understand that the blue line on the broadcasts isn’t on the field, but c’mon man, this is at least four yards past the line. You got it? Cool....
Shayne Graham Scoring Glitch Enrages Yahoo Fantasy Football Players
Shayne Graham, the newly signed Falcons kicker, is in the midst of the best fantasy football performance of all time, as his 16 field goals are good for 48 points in Yahoo leagues. This first came to our attention as our alleged former colleague Kyle Wagner talked some shit online....
Illinois AD On Coach He Just Rehired: "It's Not Ideal"
Illinois ended their football season with a 24-14 loss to in-state rival Northwestern yesterday. At 5-7, they won’t make a bowl game, but the school re-upped the contract of head coach Bill Cubit after the loss for two more years. Illinois’ interim athletic director Paul Kowalczyk was, uh, not enthu...
Eli Manning Throws A Pair Of Tip-Drill Interceptions In Rapid Succession
Man, this is some piss-poor luck from Eli Manning. Shane Vereen is one of the best pass-catching running backs in the NFL, so this first pick is pretty inexcusable. The second toss maybe should have been picked, but Will Blackmon redeemed himself and scooped it up anyhow....
