Markieff Morris Shamelessly Yanks Seth Curry's Shorts From The Bench

Markelle Fultz Is Still Struggling, But He Finally Made A Three
The Sixers didn’t really need Markelle Fultz to play well in tonight’s 127-108 blowout of the Bulls, which was good, because something’s clearly still affecting him.

Wolves Cancel Today's Practice, Block Out Media, And We're Talking Mark Wahlberg Now
Jimmy Butler had an astounding Wednesday. A “vociferous” Jimmy finally showed up to practice after three weeks of absence, humiliated his teammates in scrimmages, hurled dung at his coach, hollered at his GM, left the Wolves in a daze, then slid into the studio for a slick ESPN tell-all, and probabl...

Markieff Morris's Bad Temper Is In Mid-Season Form
My friends, the Morris twins are extremely back on their bullshit. Last week Marcus Morris took the bait when Tristan Thompson ran his mouth about the LeBron-less Cavs still being the team to beat in the Eastern Conference. Also last week Markieff Morris felt it sensible to declare that the Boston C...

Conservative D.C. Is A Bunch Of Weird-As-Hell Nationals Fans
There’s no reason to know who Ben Hobbs is. He’s one of the anonymous ideology droids that fill Washington D.C.’s less-interesting condominiums, pad out its cocktail parties, and ensure that its steakhouse banquettes never get cold. When Republicans are in power, he will work in government; when the...

So It's Come To This: An Ottawa Senators Blog
It is insane to me that we are only a year removed from the Senators coming within a game of the Stanley Cup Final. It is insane to me that so much has happened between then and now, including this and this but mostly the team’s threats to leave Ottawa and the team’s simmering contract beef with all...
Washington And ESPN Are Being Whiny Little Babies About An Announcer's Tweet
Following University of Washington’s 21-16 loss to Auburn two weeks ago, ESPN announcer Mark Jones accurately tweeted that the team “took one on the chin.” He also wrote, “Where’s Montana?” referencing an ESPN broadcast from last season when the Huskies were lightly ribbed for having a “cupcake” non...

Mark Jurich, son of former Louisville athletic director Tom Jurich, is extremely, extremely pissed about the location of the 20 years’ worth of tickets granted to his family as part of his dad’s termination last autumn.

Leave It To Adam Schefter To Congratulate The Raiders For Tossing A Pittance At Oakland Taxpayers
Mark Davis is yanking the Raiders out of Oakland because he couldn’t get Oakland taxpayers to pony up three quarters of a billion dollars to buy him a new stadium in town.

Nick Markakis? Really? Huh, That's Weird.
Braves outfielder Nick Markakis has built himself a solid, respectable baseball career—one better than 99 percent of guys who ever pick up the ol’ ball and stick.
