Browns Player's Startling Guarantee: We Will Win A Game Sometime This Season

You’re not going to hear that r...

The Browns Ran A Weird Play And It Somehow Worked

Did Robert Caruso Con The Washington Press—Or Is That What The Russians <i>Want </i>You To Think?
How hard is it to con people in Washington, D.C.? Easier than you might think, considering it’s the place where things like nuclear war get decided.

LeBron Roasted The Warriors At His Halloween Party With Some Extremely Rude Cookies
LeBron James, omnipotent shot blocker and NBA champion, loves Halloween. He had a bunch of his Cavs teammates over this weekend, and they all committed to full-on costumes (especially Iman Shumpert).

Darrelle Revis Is Still Getting Roasted
The Jets won yesterday, beating the Browns, which, okay.

I Think Kevin Durant Might Already Be Losing It

CBS's Brian Jones Rants Against Targeting Rule
Brian Jones failed out of the NFL due to injury—he even filed, and lost, a lawsuit over it—but don’t tell him that the sport of football needs rules to protect players’ long-term health.

An Ode To James Carville's Super Fucked-Up Glasses
This election has turned the country into a tar pit from which we will never escape, but it did give us one thing that has brought me great joy. That thing is political pundit James Carville’s busted-ass spectacles....
<i>First Take </i>Has Nothing On These Portuguese Soccer Pundits
We might think America’s cadre of shouty TV sports agitators is particularly impressive in a dark and horrifying kind of way, but these two guys on Portugal’s Prolongamento seem like they could bury even Stephen A. Smith under a mountain of shrieks and insults with no problem....

White Sox Fan Frank Kaminsky Owns The Cubs
Frank Kaminsky is a White Sox fan and he apparently isn’t one to celebrate his city’s other team’s success.
