It's Bryce Petty Time
The New York Jets still have four games left to play, but last night’s no-show against the Colts was an effective and fitting end to their season. The Jets are 3-9 now, and whatever combination of luck and competence that got them to a 10-6 record last season is nowhere to be found....

It's Time Again To Listen To Kevin Harlan Call Play-By-Play Of Two Idiots On The Field
Idiots On The Field once again stormed a lousy Monday Night Football game tonight, which means their eventual punishment at the arms of New Jersey state troopers got called live on Westwood One radio by Kevin Harlan and Boomer Esiason....
Odell Beckham Jr. Is Complaining About The Refs Again
The Giants got downright bodied by the Steelers on Sunday, the 24-14 score barely reflecting Pittsburgh’s dominance—Antonio Brown and Le’Veon Bell outgained the entire Giants offense. The promised showdown between Brown and Odell Beckham Jr., never quite materialized, because though Eli Manning reli...

Hot Fucking Stove: Don't Touch The Stove It's Extremely Hot
Good news, friends: The Thanksgiving holiday brought us not just a bounty of meats, side dishes, and familial bonding, but also mildly interesting baseball transactions that could have anywhere from no to some impact on the upcoming season of “America’s pastime.”...
Mets Do Something Right, Reportedly Re-Sign Yoenis Céspedes
Congrats to all the Mets fans, whose fears of cheap, swindling management rightfully led them to believe that the hero of their 2015 season, Yoenis Céspedes, might not return to Flushing after exercising his one-year opt-out in late October....
Who Lost The White House?
After a long, ugly, and immensely stupid presidential election, a modest plurality of a little more than half of voting-age Americans voted to make a deeply loathed avatar of the despised political establishment the next President of the United States. Unfortunately, they were improperly geographica...
The Giants' Defense Has Made A Historic Turnaround
OK, so they just beat the Browns, and everyone has beaten the Browns. OK, their offense and their special teams remain frustratingly inconsistent. And, OK, this is probably not a defense that’s going to make anyone forget what they did in Super Bowls 42 and 46. But the Giants have won six in a row a...
Janoris Jenkins To Terrelle Pryor: "U Really Sucks"
Cleveland Browns wide receiver Terrelle Pryor felt a little miffed after he saw (some of) New York Giants cornerback Janoris Jenkins’s comments on him this week, which added a little animosity to today’s game. The Giants won 27-13, dropping the Browns to 0-12, and Jenkins followed up with a little m...
King Kristaps Dunked On A Plumlee
The New York Knicks’ resident Big Boy Kristaps Porzingis got up this evening at Madison Square Garden and whooped some Plumlee ass....
Kent Bazemore Laughs As He Sets Up Dwight Howard For An Alley-Oop
Although the Atlanta Hawks were losing in the second quarter today against the New York Knicks, Kent Bazemore still found a chance to be happy.

Boo Mike Pence Whenever Possible [Updates]
Tonight, Vice President-elect Mike Pence decided to take in a performance of Hamilton. But apparently, as soon as he walked in the theater, the only good Hamilton fans in the world started booing like crazy. This is the sound Mike Pence should hear every single time he leaves his house. ...
When Kristaps Porzingis Is Feeling Himself, Look The Fuck Out
If year one of the Kristaps Porzingis Experience was about promise, year two has been about swagger. The 7-foot-3 Latvian showed as a rookie that he belonged in the NBA, that he can fit in, that neither the pace of play nor the opposing talent were too much for him to handle. Early into his sophomor...
New York Islanders Decline To Say If Jack Capuano Lives In Garth Snow's Basement
The disappointing Islanders have lost six of their last seven and currently hold an underwhelming 5-8-3 record. Head coach Jack Capuano is on the hot seat, and depending on who you believe, the heat around his job status might be rising through the vents and warming up team president Garth Snow’s ho...
Eli Manning Read The Bengals' Defense Like A Coloring Book
Eli Manning was slinging (for better or for worse), Odell Beckham was doing his thing, the defense looked like a throwback to the best Tom Coughlin years in the way it pressured Andy Dalton, and even the much-maligned running game picked up a huge first down to run out the clock, something the Giant...
Kristaps Porzingis's Swagger Is Undeniable
No piece of NBA ephemera has entertained me this season as much as Kristaps Porzingis showing off apparent tinges of a New York accent. ...
The NFL Knows America Doesn't Want To Watch The Jets
We already savaged the Rams for their role in the NFL’s least enjoyable game since this Week 1 debacle, but no one deserves to come out of that with dignity intact. The Jets, led by Bryce Petty in his first NFL start, were just as complicit, punting eight times and gaining just 17 first downs. You d...
