Internal Memo Instructs Pac-12 Networks Employees On How To Avoid Talking About Luke Heimlich
Last week, the Oregonian reported that Oregon State’s star pitcher Luke Heimlich was charged in 2012 with repeatedly molesting a six-year-old family member throughout 2011. Heimlich, who was 15 when he was charged and pleaded guilty, is one of the best pitchers in the nation and has led his powerhou...
Australian Rules Football Player Uses His Opponent To Get Major Air<em></em>
Besides the dope referee signals, the coolest thing in Australian rules football is the mark. A mark is when a player cleanly catches a ball that has traveled at least 15 meters (49 feet) in the air. There’s even an annual Mark of the Year contest, awarded to the best one of the season....
Old Man Beef Sizzles Between Buck Showalter And Nats GM Mike Rizzo

Mike Milbury On Sidney Crosby Grinding P.K. Subban's Head Into The Ice: He "Had It Coming"
NBC broadcaster Mike Milbury is scarcely a month removed from declaring P.K. Subban a “clown” who deserved a “rap on the head” for daring to get loose during warmups by dancing on the ice. He’s now continued that fine legacy of wishing ill upon Subban, saying tonight that the defenseman deserved to ...

The NFL Machine Has Finally Beaten Colin Kaepernick<em></em>
This week, the Seahawks signed Austin Davis to back up Russell Wilson. I don’t need to tell you that Austin Davis is a shitty quarterback. He didn’t play a single snap in 2016, and in 2015 he started two games for Cleveland and promptly committed five turnovers. In terms of statistics, physical attr...

P.K. Subban: Sidney Crosby Told Me I Have Bad Breath
With Nashville on their way to a 5-1 victory during last night’s Game 3 of the Stanley Cup Finals, P.K.

The Cavs Were Scared Enough Of Steph Curry That They Let Kevin Durant Destroy Them
The Cavs, who have to play perfect basketball to beat the Warriors, did not play perfect basketball last night in Game 1, so they did not beat the Warriors. They turned over the rock 20 times and ceded 27 fast break points, which is not all that shocking given their piss-poor transition defense duri...
The Time Ted Leonsis Invited Me Over To Show How The NHL Is In The Tank For The Penguins
In March 2010 Ted Leonsis asked me to meet him. I didn’t know him personally, but from the Capitals and Wizards owner’s very public persona he seemed like a nice and interesting guy, especially compared to other owners in the D.C. market. He didn’t say what he wanted to talk about, though I figured ...
