JuJu Smith-Schuster Celebrates Steelers TD By Reenacting Hit On Vontaze Burfict
The Steelers took a 17-10 lead on the Patriots on a Martavis Bryant touchdown catch before halftime, and the celebration afterward took things to another level....
Joe Smith, Baseball's One True Joe Smith, To Sign With Astros
Much is made of the fact that baseball’s history makes the sport so rich in numbers—a statistic to back up every story and an analysis to run for every situation, as broadcasters and newspaper columnists and front office nerds alike will all remind you—but that baseball’s history makes the sport so ...
Bout Stopped After Boxer's Ear Nearly Torn Off
Stephen Smith took a loss tonight in Las Vegas in his super featherweight bout against Francisco Vargas when his left ear became dangerously close to being entirely ripped off. The video is gross; this GIF is grosser: ...
Steelers' Mike Mitchell Rails At The NFL's Inconsistency On Suspensions For Hits
Steelers safety Mike Mitchell watched how the NFL has responded to three different plays in this past week of football, and he’s not happy about the different punishments that the league has handed down in response or the arcane reasoning behind those punishments....
IOC Bans Russia From The 2018 Winter Olympics For Absurdly Intricate Doping Scheme
The International Olympic Committee announced today that it has banned Russia—but not all Russian athletes—from the 2018 Winter Olympics in Pyeongchang, South Korea, as an unprecedented punishment for systemic doping, including at the 2014 Games in Sochi. ...
Donovan Mitchell Will Get You Buckets
Fresh off his 41-point statement game on Friday, Jazz rookie Donovan Mitchell has remained hot as hell. His contribution to Utah’s all-devouring 116-69 destruction of the Wizards was 21 points on 8-for-13 shooting; he sat the entire fourth quarter. Mitchell’s 16.7 points per game put him third among...
That Was Bad Football
A grimy football game can be fun, sometimes. Messy, brutal, even a little bit of dirty play can raise the stakes, or at least turn a game into a car wreck that can’t be looked away from. Steelers-Bengals was not fun....
Donovan Mitchell Has The Look
When Rudy Gobert was ruled out for a month with a bone bruise in his right knee back on November 11, the Jazz became an afterthought in the crowded Western Conference. The thinking—my thinking, at least—was that Utah’s strong defense would slide without Gobert around to anchor the middle, and for an...
Giants Bench Eli Manning For Geno Smith
Eli Manning’s streak of 210 consecutive starts will end this weekend, as Giants coach Ben McAdoo announced that Geno Smith will take over at QB against the Raiders. Manning’s streak was the second longest in NFL history, 87 starts behind Brett Favre. Smith started one game for the New York Jets las...
The Chiefs Are Flailing
The Chiefs have posted a winning record in all four seasons with quarterback Alex Smith and head coach Andy Reid, but they’ve only won one playoff game. Last summer, there was some talk of giving first-round draft pick QB Patrick Mahomes II a shot instead of Smith. Mahomes, a Big 12 gunslinger, was ...
Pau Gasol Gets A Front-Row Seat To Dennis Smith Jr.'s Giant Dunk
Everyone from LeBron James on down knows that Mavs rookie Dennis Smith Jr. is an awe-inducing athletic talent with a penchant for all-out slams, so you can’t blame Pau Gasol for wanting a glimpse of Smith’s abilities for his own. As Smith dribbled with Gasol on him at the top of the arc, the veteran...
Grigor Dimitrov Is Doing His Best Roger Federer Impression
This is the week of the World Tour Finals, the year-end event wherein the best eight players on the men’s tennis tour all beat each other up and figure out who is the best one.

JuJu Smith-Schuster Regrets His Sloppy Post-TD Performance As Choking Victim Jalen Ramsey
The Steelers have put together a strong portfolio of touchdown celebrations this season, but they had a bit of a stumble Sunday against the Colts. After receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster scored in the third quarter, he celebrated by reenacting one of Week 9's NFL fights. Smith-Schuster portrayed Jalen Ra...
Chiefs End The First Half With A 57-Yard Mini Hail Mary Touchdown
Alex Smith isn’t the type to throw deep bombs, even in Hail Mary situations, but at the end of the first half today against the Cowboys, the Chiefs QB found a way around that limitation. On the final play before the clock hit zero, Smith was in his own territory and threw a relatively short pass acr...
Roger Federer's Graveyard
Roger Federer is a really great guy. I know this because I got to meet him a few days ago when he invited me to his house for a dinner party....
JuJu Smith-Schuster Is Having A Ball
It’s been a weird rookie season for Steelers receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster, who last week was unwillingly pulled into a one-sided beef with teammate Martavis Bryant before having his bike stolen. But during last night’s game against the Lions, he had about as much fun as a football player can possibl...
Stephen A. Smith Has Manufactured Another Insane Feud With A Professional Athlete
ESPN shit-for-brains Stephen A. Smith recently shared some, umm, thoughts (?) on his radio show about the new Nike NBA warmups, which come with comfy hoods. Certain players have taken to wearing the hoods during pregame warmups, and when sitting on the bench. Smith, in full-on psychotic raving mode,...
Donovan Mitchell Is A Good Reason To Watch Utah Jazz Games
The Jazz hosted (and smoked) the Lakers last night, and you will be forgiven if this matchup didn’t strike you right away as a meeting of two of the most exciting rookie guards in the NBA. After all, the Jazz are good, and the Lakers are very much not good, and Donovan Mitchell, Utah’s prized rookie...
