Zlatan Ibrahimović On MLS Playoffs: "I Think The System Is Shit"
Zlatan Ibrahimović’s summer of righteous discontent continues. Less than a month after taking a dump on MLS’s best player, likening his own presence in the league to a “Ferrari among Fiats,” and even calling an opposing coach a “little bitch,” the L.A. Galaxy striker has today taken aim at the leagu...

Simone Biles Tears Up While Expressing Anger At USA Gymnastics
Simone Biles is getting ready to compete in the U.S Gymnastics Championships in Kansas City, Mo. this weekend, and Wednesday night she met with reporters after her training session. When she was asked about how she feels to be competing under the USA Gymnastics banner after the organization failed t...
John Sterling Must Be Stopped
Even given that the Yankees are constructed to hit home runs, and that the Orioles are (in fact if not in intention) constructed to give up home runs, what New York has done to Baltimore—and especially in Baltimore—this season beggars belief. After Wednesday’s 14-2 win at Camden Yards to complete a ...
Very Pissed Chris Davis Appears To Go After Orioles Manager Brandon Hyde

Report: Some Guy Broke A Teen's Head For Not Properly Respecting The National Anthem
From the moment “respecting the flag” became a piece of gristle floating in the soupy brains of people who watch a lot of Fox News and burn their Nikes, we began heading towards this moment. At long last, someone has allegedly assaulted a teenager over perceived disrespect for the flag and national ...
Orioles Outfielder Bonked On The Head By Badly Misjudged Pop Fly
If you were looking for one single moment to represent the bottomless misery of the last, oh, two years of Orioles baseball, you could do a lot worse than D.J. Stewart’s ill-fated play on a fourth-inning fly ball in Tuesday’s game against the Yankees in Baltimore. Stewart, chugging in on the play, a...
The Cubs' Bullpen Is Currently Held Together With Scotch Tape And Sticky Tack
The Cubs escaped what could have been a crushing loss by just a few feet on Monday night, leaving Wrigley with a 6-5 win over the A’s after leading 6-2 heading into the eighth inning. The final out in the top of the ninth came stressfully, as with two runners on and the A’s down by just one, Marcus...

Okay, Maybe That's Enough <i>Fast And Furiouses</i> For Now

Jonathan Villar Didn't Realize He Hit For The Cycle
The cycle’s a weird baseball thing to celebrate, as baseball things go. It’s good, obviously, because it means four hits and 10 total bases. But replacing the double with another home run would be even better. Replacing the home run with another triple would be rarer. Still, there’s something to be ...
Actor Who Portrayed QB Gets Called Out, Goes To Great Lengths To Prove He Can Actually Throw A Football
The internet shared a chuckle over the weekend at the expense of actor Robbie Amell, who in a viral clip from the 2015 movie The DUFF appeared to have no actual idea how to throw a football, in a scene where he is meant to be playing a star high school quarterback. Have a look at this mess:...

Draymond Got Paid
How much is defense worth in the NBA? According to the Golden State Warriors, the price of an elite defensive player is a cool $25 million a year. Per an Adrian Wojnarowski report, the Warriors have locked Draymond Green up with a max four-year extension, worth $100 million:...
Carmelo Anthony Says He Doesn't Understand Why The Rockets Didn't Want Him Anymore
I can’t decide what’s weirder: the realization that Carmelo Anthony’s NBA career is likely all the way over, or remembering that Carmelo Anthony played in an NBA game as recently as this past season. He bombed out of the rotation in Houston after 10 games, was dumped in a trade with Chicago, and the...
Everyone Is Getting Signed, But Indie Wrestling Will Be Just Fine
While the rest of the sports world is deep in a summer lull, independent wrestling is in the middle of a hectic 10 days of notable shows.

<i>Once Upon A Time In Hollywood</i> Is A Fun Movie About Making Shit Up
In 1992, when I would have been 11 years old or so, I went with my family to the theater to see the movie Radio Flyer, starring Elijah Wood and the annoying dinosaur enthusiast kid from Jurassic Park (Joseph Mazzello) as brothers in an abusive household in... probably the late 1950s or early 1960s? ...
Baseball Players, Listen To Me: Stop Wearing Shirts Under Vest Jerseys

Lou Anna Simon Is Finally Leaving Michigan State
Disgraced former Michigan State president Lou Anna Simon will retire from the university at the end of August, according to a report from MSU Today.
