NFL Admits Officials Screwed Ravens Out Of A Win
Yesterday’s Jaguars-Ravens game ended with the Jags kicking a game-winning field goal on the final play of the game. According to an NFL spokesman, that play should have never happened, and the Ravens should have won....
Reminder From Russell Westbrook: Don't Get It Twisted
The Celtics beat up on the Durant-less Thunder last night, and Marcus Smart had a better game than opposing point guard Russell Westbrook. After the game, one reporter asked Westbrook if Smart, being a big, physical guard, is a particularly tough matchup for him. Westbrook did not take kindly to thi...
Jason Gay's <i>Little Victories </i>Is The Perfect Advice Book For People Who Never Take Any
I don’t really believe in advice. That’s not to say other people can’t teach you anything useful about how to live, but sweeping, external principles handed down from on high are useless. It’s one thing to flesh out your personal moral code with examples from other people’s lives, but swollen mantra...
Is Ronda Rousey A GLORY GIRL?
Hey, Ronda Rousey got her butt (and head and neck) kicked the other night. How did such a seemingly dominant athlete manage to end up losing so decisively? Was Rousey ill-prepared for Holly Holm’s cagey boxing style? Was she unnerved by Australia’s counter-clockwise toilet swirl? Did she take a dive...

Decision Not To Evacuate Stade de France During Paris Attacks May Have Saved Many Lives
On Friday, at around 9:15 p.m. Paris time—15 minutes into the France-Germany friendly—a man attempted to enter the Stade de France at Gate D, on the stadium’s east side. Under his clothes he wore a vest packed with explosives and metal bolts, meant to kill and maim as many people around him as he co...
Drew Stanton Danced And Carson Palmer Told The Crowd To Suck It
While a new piece of Peyton Manning falls onto the field every week, another aging quarterback with an injury history is having his Kurt Warner period. Carson Palmer didn’t have the cleanest game Sunday against the Seahawks—with two of his three turnovers resulting in touchdowns—but he did come away...
A Square's Guide To Buying Sneakers
When I was a kid and lived on West 72nd Street in Manhattan, I wanted a pair of the original Air Jordans—the red and black ones that the NBA had banned for being too flashy or some shit. There was a mom-and-pop sneaker shop on the Upper West Side that showed them off in their windows, and I’d saliva...
How Ronda Rousey Lost
You’ve seen the kick. We’ve all seen the kick. Left shin meets jaw/neck, and Ronda Rousey is out. It was a brutal, iconic moment, but it’s almost beside the point: Holly Holm was already beating Rousey, and beating her badly. She wasn’t just edging her out; it was total domination from start to fini...

PSG Players David Luiz And Edinson Cavani Are Worried About Going Back To Paris After Terrorist Attacks [Updated]
For many players on the French capitol’s flagship soccer team, Paris Saint-Germain, last week’s terrorist attacks were viewed from afar, as they were off on international duty elsewhere. Now that it’s nearing time to return, at least two players have publicly expressed their wariness....
The Giants Just Can't Seal The Deal
Of the New York Giants’ five losses this season, three of the opponents’ game-winning scores have come with a combined eight seconds left.

Aaron Rodgers Criticizes Packers Fan Who Screamed "MUSLIMS SUCK!" During Moment Of Silence
Morons at Lambeau Field interrupted yesterday’s league-mandated moment of silence for Paris terrorism victims with all manner of ejaculations, including “MUSLIMS SUCK!” (We isolated a crowd-level audio feed of the moment in the above video.) Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers addressed the remark in ...
Peyton Manning Needs To Sit
Peyton Manning is racking up injuries almost as fast as interceptions. (Almost.) Two weeks ago, it was his right, throwing shoulder. Last week it was his right foot, the one he’s clearly struggling to push off of and floating weak, underthrown balls. Before yesterday’s terrible 29-13 loss to Kansas ...

Fred Hoiberg And Derrick Rose Can't See Eye-To-Eye On Double Vision Diagnosis
Derrick Rose has been playing this season with double vision produced by a broken left orbital bone in his face. I am no medical expert, but this sounds like an active hindrance to the practice of playing NBA basketball, and Rose’s career-low stats back this up....
Panthers DE Charles Johnson Had To Buy His Own Ticket For Today's Game
