I Love Watching Kyle Anderson Do Hilariously Slow Basketball
Among the many reasons you’d be galactically screwed if you lined up on the perimeter to defend an NBA player, speed is the scariest.

Ben Simmons Requires Neither Joel Embiid Nor A Damn Jumper To Dominate
The 76ers pulled away from a sleepy and defeated Hornets team Sunday afternoon, sans Joel Embiid, behind more excellent two-way play from young Ben Simmons.

Clay Travis Should Trigger The SJWs And Send Us A Video Of Him Singing The Word "Nigga"
Yesterday, we posted a story about the Virginia Tech women’s lacrosse team recording a video of themselves singing along to the part in Lil Dicky’s “Freaky Friday” where Chris Brown sings the word “nigga” a bunch of times. The gag in the song is that Lil Dicky, a white rapper, has swapped bodies wit...

<i>The Mighty Ducks </i>Is A Mediocre Movie With An Utterly Unsympathetic Protagonist
I’m not nostalgic for your favorite sports film, because I probably never saw it the first time around (unless it’s A League Of Their Own, which even I know is a goddamn masterpiece).

Caroline Wozniacki Says Unruly Fans Threatened Her And Her Family During Miami Open
Monica Puig came roaring back after a dispiriting first set to beat Caroline Wozniacki, 0-6 6-4 6-4, in a Friday Round of 64 match at the Miami Open. Highlights make it seem like the crowd was broadly pro-Puig, which makes sense—Puig is American, by way of Puerto Rico, and lives in Miami, whereas Wo...
Kaetlyn Osmond Becomes First Canadian Ladies Figure Skating World Champion Since 1973
We’re going to talk about figure skating. No, it’s not a month ago. You haven’t woken up in February in the middle of the Winter Olympics when everything Adam Rippon said or did made international headlines. Figure skating goes on even after the Olympics are over. It is March, which means it’s time ...
Zlatan Announces Move To LA Galaxy In Most Zlatan Way Possible
As much as anything else, Zlatan Ibrahimović is so highly coveted by MLS for his ability to capture attention.
