Tom Brady Has Nobody Left To Throw To
After Rob Gronkowski left Sunday’s game against the Broncos with a late leg injury, Tom Brady threw passes to a 30-year-old backup who was very clear about that role, a rookie with more lost fumbles than NFL receptions, Brandon LaFell, and a backup running back with 22 career carries. It didn’t go w...

The Patriots Are Sketchy And Deserve Scrutiny
Monday night’s Buffalo Bills-New England Patriots game was a primetime display of shoddy officiating. The most egregious instance involved an inadvertent whistle on a Danny Amendola catch that would have been a huge gain, if not a touchdown, but Gene Steratore’s crew bungled other plays throughout t...

Brad Marchand Thinks He's A Baseball Player Or Something
Brad Marchand is a hockey player for the Boston Bruins, a hockey team, that plays in the National Hockey league, a hockey league.

FanDuel Told Employees Not To Win Too Much Money On DraftKings Or People Would Get Suspicious

Local Radio Station Claims Lions Ditched Them Over Censorship Issues
97.1 The Ticket has been the Detroit Lions’ flagship station for 18 years, but the team has decided to ditch The Ticket for another local station.

Soccer Star Gets Police Called On Him By People Thinking He Was A Terrorist
It’s perfectly understandable how one might look at Radja Nainggolan and imagine him a strange character. It’s also understandable why one might hold the belief that he should be locked up for his numerous assaults on opposing players’ legs. What isn’t so reasonable is seeing the Roma midfielder jus...

Is Tom Brady A Fancy Dog?
Patriots quarterback Tom Brady is on the cover of GQ’s Men of the Year issue, and the cover story is accompanied by a slideshow of artfully produced photos of Brady. These pictures have left us asking one question, though: Is Tom Brady a fancy dog? Let’s go to the evidence:...

No One's Responsible For Chip Kelly's Offense But Chip Kelly
In addition to a concussion, Eagles QB Sam Bradford also suffered a separated shoulder in Sunday’s loss to Miami, according to ESPN.

Nathan MacKinnon Scores Two Goals In 13 Seconds
The Colorado Avalanche–for my money the team with the best geological phenomenon mascot–put a holy whooping on the Montreal Canadiens last night up in Québec. Two of those goals came in a 13 second burst from young center Nathan MacKinnon, where he scored immediately out of a face off, and then on a...

<i>Skin Trade </i>Lets<i> </i>Dolph Lundgren Cook, And For A Dumb Action Flick, That's Enough
Dolph Lundgren has had a couple of cups of coffee with the American pop-cultural psyche: haughtily sneering over Apollo Creed’s death in Rocky IV, wearing a necklace of severed ears in Universal Soldier, that sort of thing. But he never crossed over to the upper tier of action stars, and it’s hard t...

<i>By The Sea</i> Makes Marriage Look Like A Beautiful, Painful Bore
About seven months after Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston got married, The Onion ran the brilliant headline “Brad Pitt Bored With Sight of Jennifer Aniston’s Naked Body.” It was a perfect joke on a couple of levels, but the element of truth that’s always stayed with me was the notion that even the mos...

John Oliver Gleefully Recaps Dan Snyder's "DICK BALLS" Legal Filing
We noted earlier this week a comically vulgar legal defense levied by NFL owner Dan Snyder to retain the “Washington Redskins” trademark, and HBO comic John Oliver covered the topic on his Last Week Tonight program. The organization’s point becomes even more clear when spoken out loud; Dan Snyder wa...

Teddy Atlas Is Incredible
Timothy Bradley knocked out Brandon Rios tonight in the ninth round, shortly after receiving the above, uh, inspiration from his new trainer (and ESPN analyst) Teddy Atlas. Did it work, Tim?...
