Beer Smackdown! Samuel Adams Boston Lager Vs. Brooklyn Lager

What Is The Value Of A Ballgame?
Grantland writer Bill Barnwell posed an interesting question yesterday: What if MLB had a player-loan system similar to those used in soccer leagues around the world?

This Hard Cider Is The Best Summertime Bourbon Mixer
On Monday, one of my favorite beer writers, Jason Notte of Marketwatch, told us to drink more fruit beer. He is a wise man, and that is generally sound advice. However! What if you’ve been drinking too much fruit beer lately? What if you’ve had the good sense to overdose on, say, 21st Amendment’s He...
Fat Guy Touchdown Alert!
It’s always big news in these parts when a Fat Guy scores a touchdown, and it happened tonight in the CFL as Ottawa defensive lineman Zack Evans came away with a ball out of Edmonton’s QB Matt Nichols’s hand and took it 65 yards to the maison.

Chris Broussard And Bomani Jones Argue About Premarital Sex
Bomani Jones dished some takes about Russell Wilson’s sexless relationship with Ciara on Highly Questionable today, and his thoughts on premarital sex didn’t resonate with ESPN coworker Chris Broussard. The NBA writer came at Jones on Twitter for believing that chastity was silly....
Postman Flips His Shit Over Being Blocked By Tour De France
I get that it’s really annoying to have your mail route impeded by a massive bike race, especially when you’ve got “fuckin’ 80 kilos worth of post” to deliver. You just want to do your job, Angry Postman, and I can respect that. What definitely isn’t cool, though, is throwing tantrum that includes t...

So Why Did Jason Whitlock Bail On A <i>New York</i> Mag Profile?
New York magazine has a new 4,000-word feature on ESPN personality Jason Whitlock out, and while it offers a good (if familiar) rundown of Whitlock’s career and how he ended up getting fired from his own non-existent website before it even launched, it offers nothing first-hand from its subject. Wha...
