This Long Range Blast Will Be Côte d'Ivoire's One Good World Cup Memory

Smash Mouth Singer Flips Shit; Band Just Wants To Play "All Star"
Remember how when the Titanic sunk, the band kept playing on the deck so the passengers wouldn’t completely lose it as the ship went down? This video is sort of like that.

For The Undermanned Cavaliers, Fatigue Has Set In
What the hell else are the Cavaliers supposed to do? In Game 5 they conceded that the Warriors’s small ball unit was too good, and barely played Timofey Mozgov. LeBron James went off for a monster 40 points, 14 rebounds, and 11 assists (and only two turnovers). J.R. Smith finally (at least for awhil...

Colombia Commit Obvious Hand Ball, Get Away With It
Colombia lead France 1-0 in today’s Women’s World Cup match, and the French have reason to be sore after an obvious hand ball in the penalty area went missed by the match referee. Blatant cheating! It’s the FIFA way....

John Carpenter's <i>Assault On Precinct 13 </i>Is Ice Cold And Just Right
John Carpenter’s original Assault on Precinct 13 is one of the greatest zombie movies of all time, and there’s not a single zombie in it.

Deadspin recently published a couple of stories alleging that Kevin Johnson’s actions show how eager he is to promote his brand. The latest one actually used the phrase “promote his brand” in the lede. We meant it figuratively. ...

Stephen A. Smith Blames WWC Goal On "Not Wanting To Mess Up Their Hair"
It’s tiresome to monitor ESPN blowhard and domestic violence apologist Stephen A. Smith’s daily acts of polluting the Worldwide Leader’s airwaves with his Cro-Magnon attitudes, but here we are.

What Last Year's Spurs Taught The Warriors About Beating LeBron
The Warriors “unstoppable” small lineup is rightly getting credit for luring Cleveland into the faster-paced shootout Golden State always wanted to play. But who gets credit for starting Andre Iguodala for Andrew Bogut? Steve Kerr is willing to give it all to a 28-year-old he calls his “chief of sta...

Are The Warriors Just Too Deep For The Cavs? (Probably)
Even before Kyrie Irving was injured, the Cavaliers bench more closely resembled a basketball old folks home than something that could actually help a team in 2015. Kendrick Perkins? Brendan Haywood? Shawn Marion? Mike Miller? I’m not even sure who Joe Harris is....
