The Sports Highlight Of The Day Is This Runaway Airport Supply Truck Getting JACKED UP
Due to the ongoing wussification of American culture at the hands of liberal snowflakes, crunching, destructive hits have mostly been pulled out of highlight packages, if not out of sports altogether. Gone are the days when you could look forward to Tom Jackson and Michael Irvin cackling sadisticall...

Neymar Is The Savior PSG No Longer Want
Neymar’s hot, heavy, but ultimately unconsummated flirtations with Barcelona during this summer’s transfer window put Paris Saint-Germain in a bizarre position: the club would keep its biggest star—the second-best player in the world, the best hope to drive the team to Champions League glory—and yet...
Matt Nagy Doesn't Reveal Anything About Roquan Smith's Mysterious Deactivation
Chicago Bears linebacker Roquan Smith didn’t play Sunday against the Vikings, despite not being listed on the team’s injury report all week. Smith was downgraded to doubtful right before the game, then ultimately watched the game on the sidelines. The team would only say that he was out for “person...

The Denver Broncos Are Now Living In A World Of Piss
The Denver Broncos are one of three 0-4 NFL teams (assuming no tie, there should be one more after Bengals-Steelers tonight), and they’ve achieved that record thanks to generous helpings of incompetence and rotten luck. Also, they’ll now have to ride out the rest of this season without one of their ...
Bruce Bochy's Retirement Ceremony Was—Holy Shit, It's Tim Lincecum!
The final game of the San Francisco Giants’ season was the final game of manager Bruce Bochy’s career. The skipper had planned to retire at the conclusion of the 2019 season, so after Sunday’s 9-0 loss to the Dodgers, many of Bochy’s former players showed up at the stadium to send him off, includin...

There’s a clip making the rounds that shows part of Deshaun Watson’s press conference following the Texans’ loss to the Panthers on Sunday, and it’s fantastic:...
Forget The WWE-AEW War For Minute: SmackDown's Fox Premiere Is A Big Fucking Deal
This week sure looks likely to be one of the more momentous in recent wrestling history. Most of the focus is on the emergence of the “Wednesday Night War,” and rightly so. It’s been a long time since WWE had another promotion to pick a fight with, and NXT expanding to two hours on USA Network to ba...
Sam Darnold On State Of His Spleen: "Going To Do What It's Going To Do"
Everyone in the NFL has one question on their minds: What’s up with Sam Darnold’s least cool organ? Thankfully, there’s an update....
Adam Thielen Tries Very Hard To Not Say Anything Mean About His Bad Quarterback
Vikings quarterback Kirk Cousins’s play through the first four games of this season has resembled his center’s pants after a few snaps. His biggest problem is that he struggles to throw a deep, accurate ball. Both the defense and his own receivers know it....
Leicester City Are For Real Again
When Leicester City won the Premier League title in 2016, it felt like an accident. Sure, they had N’Golo Kanté, Riyad Mahrez, and Jamie Vardy, but outside of those three, Leicester weren’t a team full of great players. Rather, they had a good system that worked to perfection long enough to complete...
Vontaze Burfict Suspended For The Rest Of The Season For Attempted Decapitation Of Jack Doyle
Raiders linebacker Vontaze Burfict will be suspended for the remainder of the 2019 season for his flagrant late hit on Colts tight end Jack Doyle in Sunday’s game. Burfict was tossed during the second quarter of the Raiders’ 31-24 win after he teed off on a defenseless Doyle....
California Pokes The NCAA With A Stick
California Governor Gavin Newsom is expected to sign the state’s Fair Pay to Play Act into law today. That bill, which passed the state senate with overwhelming support earlier this month, forbids the state’s public colleges and universities from revoking the eligibility or scholarships of athletes ...
The Ballpark In Arlington Is The Kind Of Place Texas Always Loses
Everything in North Texas feels brand new. The roads are freshly paved. The high school football stadiums shine under their megawatt lights. The suburbs are littered with shopping malls, none of them more than 40 years old. There aren’t many trees, and even the grass has been planted, bought from Ho...
Come On, The Red Sox Can't Actually Get Rid Of Mookie Betts, Can They?
The 84-78 Boston Red Sox did not provide their fans with a very satisfying season of baseball, but a team experiencing a down year right after winning a championship isn’t unheard of, and this campaign could and probably should have passed without anyone who follows the team slipping into a panic. U...
Gardner Minshew Has A New Nickname
The Jacksonville Jaguars improved to 2–2 on the season with a comeback win in Denver on Sunday, riding a massive rushing performance from Leonard Fournette (225 yards) to a 26–24 victory. But these days, with Nick Foles out, no Jaguars win (or loss, even) is complete without a few plays from QB Gard...
Jaguars Junction: Week Four
Another National Football season has begun, I’m told, and with it, as one would expect, another slate of 16 regular-season games for the Jacksonville Jaguars, a team regarded with interest by many—primarily by those in Jacksonville and its immediate vicinity, but to a lesser degree by Floridians at ...
You Probably Shouldn't Be Able To Strangle A Guy On A Football Field
On Sunday, the Browns finally looked like the team everyone hoped they would be in 2019, beating the Ravens 40-25 while putting up 530 total yards of offense. Even more impressive is that they were able to do all that without much of a contribution from Odell Beckham Jr., who finished the game with ...
