Even Carmelo Wanted To Sleep Instead Of Watch The Knicks Yesterday
Yesterday's slate of NBA games sucked. The sleeved jerseys had everyone looking like rec league handball players, and we had to watch the the Derrick Rose-less Chicago Bulls squat and take a dump on the collective chest of the Brooklyn Nets. And then we had to watch the New York Knicks....
Missouri Players Flip Their Shit After Seeing Cotton Bowl Gifts

Angry Alabama Fan Drops The Best Burn On Colin Cowherd
Paul Finebaum welcomed ESPN radio personality and rat-faced gasbag Colin Cowherd onto his radio show yesterday, and the two did some chatting about Auburn's stunning win over Alabama in the Iron Bowl.

Bring On This Year's "Banned" Super Bowl Ads
For an outfit that claims to love 'mericuh, the NFL sure leans pink when it comes to a couple of the heartland's favorite Amendments.

Andre Iguodala Almost Made The Coolest Play Of The Year
The box score will tell you that Andre Iguodala's return to the Warriors last night was uneventful.

Guy Forgets <i>He's</i> Allowed To Use Hands, Takes Soccer Ball To The Face
Here's a delightful moment from the Queens Park Rangers visit to play Blackpool F.C. Some poor guy gets drilled in the dome with a misfired shot and, for some reason, keeps his hands at his sides the whole time. I think he even tries to kick it away from him, but he's not quick enough and it bounces...
Mark Scheifele's Shift Was Over Anyway
The rookie center for the Winnipeg Jets had some help getting off the ice, but none from his bench. Is this like in baseball when the rookie gets his first home run and no one congratulates him when he gets back in the dugout?...

This Is The Worst Offensive Possession Of The NBA Season
Did you watch the Nuggets-Wizards game last night? I sure hope you didn't, because that game suuuuuucked. It was a game that featured a final score of 75-74, a combined 44 turnovers, and ended with the Wizards blowing four straight chances at a game-winning shot. But perhaps no play captures the fu...
