Fred Smoot: The Sex Boat Wasn't Even That Cool
Former NFL cornerback Fred Smoot did a Reddit AMA today, and finally declared that he is tired of one of the funniest stories in sports history, the Minnesota Vikings Sex Boat scandal. Before getting to the questions, Smoot had a request:...
Dashaun Phillips Stretchered Off After Scary Head Injury
Washington cornerback Dashaun Phillips left the team’s game in Dallas against the Cowboys after going helmet to helmet with Darren McFadden on this hit. It was eerily similar to a play earlier in the game where Kyshoen Jarrett got shaken up. ...
Dexter Manley Says Black Quarterbacks Are More Mobile Because "They're Probably Used To Running From The Law"
Former Washington star defensive end Dexter Manley already got banned from one D.C. radio station for offensive comments, and he raised eyebrows again today on CBS station WUSA when he had some interesting thoughts on black quarterbacks. Specifically: that black quarterbacks like to run because they...
You Could Probably Start For The Yankees, But Their Bullpen Is Absolutely Terrifying
The New York Yankees have acquired Aroldis Chapman, the hardest-throwing pitcher in baseball, from the Cincinnati Reds for a package of four mostly unheralded minor leaguers....
Kirk Cousins's Enormous Boner Wastes Scoring Opportunity
Kirk Cousins responded to a week of positive coverage, for once, by committing a huge blunder. His boner cost Washington a chance to get points; by inexplicably taking a knee with six seconds remaining, time ran out on the half—denying the Skins a shot at a quick touchdown and even the subsequent fi...
Soccer Teen's Dad Tries To Sabotage Son's Move To Liverpool By Hiding His Passport
Despite the old adage “father knows best,” there comes a time in every child’s life when they are old enough to make their own decisions. At that point, father’s wisdom and guidance becomes less a mandate from your boss and more a word of advice to be weighed as lightly or heavily as the budding adu...
LeSean McCoy Still Has Animosity For Washington, Dishes Out Some Pregame Burns
LeSean McCoy and the Bills are in Washington, where McCoy played a bunch when he was an Eagle. Even though McCoy is no longer in their division, he apparently still won’t pass up a chance to diss Skins fans....
Blunder Reveals Washington NFL Team Runs Supposed Fan Account Supporting "Redskins" Name
While Washington was in a close game with Chicago, some suspicious tweeting went down. These two tweets, sent from two purportedly different organizations that have no affiliation with each other, look pretty similar. Given the exact similarities between the two tweets, this is almost certainly a co...

Two Arrested After Fight Involving Knife At FedEx Field [Update]
A Cowboys fan took video of fans fighting on the concourse of the Skins’ stadium in Landover after Dallas beat Washington Monday night. Though the clip’s narrator claimed a man was stabbed, EMS says they did not respond to a stabbing....
That Terrible Football Game Was Really Fun
I’ve long had this theory that the best NFL games, or at least the most entertaining ones, take place between two bad teams. Mistakes are good for unpredictability, and poor decision-making provides the opportunity for hilarity. It’s part of the reason why college games have such wild finishes. The ...
Police: Aroldis Chapman Fired Eight Gunshots, Accused Of Choking Girlfriend In October Fight
Reds flamethrowing closer Aroldis Chapman fired eight gunshots inside of his garage and was accused by his girlfriend of choking her during an October 30 party at his Davie, Fla. home, according to a police report obtained by Yahoo....

Should The Blue Jays Have Tried To Keep David Price?
The Red Sox signed David Price to a massive seven-year, $217 million contract. We soon learned that the Cardinals were in second, more than $30 million behind. And the Blue Jays, who said all the right things about hoping to keep their lefty ace who, acquired at the trade deadline, led the team to a...
Is David Price Worth It?
It feels like the old days, with the Red Sox dropping a knee-buckling amount of money to snatch a superstar in his prime. So much for Boston’s brief experiment with (relative) fiscal restraint. But consecutive last-place finishes have a way of trying an owner’s patience, and an elite, durable lefty ...
Report: David Price Is Going To The Red Sox, For So Much Money
The stove’s hot: David Price is going to the Red Sox for a buttload of cash, according to Pete Abraham of the Boston Globe....
Eli Manning Throws A Pair Of Tip-Drill Interceptions In Rapid Succession
Man, this is some piss-poor luck from Eli Manning. Shane Vereen is one of the best pass-catching running backs in the NFL, so this first pick is pretty inexcusable. The second toss maybe should have been picked, but Will Blackmon redeemed himself and scooped it up anyhow....
Washington Defensive End Jason Hatcher: Referees "Single Us Out" Because Of Team Name
Washington got the shit kicked out of them by Cam Newton and the Panthers today. Newton tossed five touchdowns and generally ran all over everyone. Of course, Washington helped him out plenty, as they committed nine penalties for 68 yards, including a would-be pick-six that got called all the way ba...
Colin Kaepernick Might Be Done As A 49er
Even before the 49ers put Colin Kaepernick on the IR this morning, it was clear that he was ancillary to the team’s plans going forward. Coach Jim Tomsula benched him in favor of Blaine Gabbert (Blaine Gabbert!) for their Week 9 win over the Falcons before the extent of his shoulder injury was revea...
