Derrick Lewis After Knocking Out Travis Browne: "I Gotta Do #2...Where's Ronda Rousey's Fine Ass At?"

Science: CEOs Are Such Bullshit

Bad Fan Hocks Loogie Straight Into Face Of Soccer Player
This video of some typically crude and unsporting behavior in Argentina is queued up to begin where the real action starts, but if you’d like a little backstory, you can skip back to the beginning. On the other hand, if you just want to see a dude spit in a player’s face, just hit play and let it ri...
A President You Can Drink Bleach With
This seems a good moment to revisit “He seems like he’d be a good guy to have a beer with,” the shorthand explanation for the rank anti-intellectualism that put George W. Bush in the White House 17 years ago and later flowered, in our somehow even dumber present, into “Uh actually stupid idiots are ...
What Makes A Dunk Contest Champ?
I used to say that the dunk contest was dead. The days when the NBA’s elite players competed were long gone, I said, along with lots of basketball fans. Most of the modern dunks are rehashes of old ones. The event has plateaued. ...
Kansas State President To Students: Please Stop Chanting "Fuck KU," We're On TV
Richard Myers, the former chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff under President George W. Bush, is in his first year as Kansas State president, and it would seem that some of the finer points of college sports fandom have been lost on the 74-year-old military man. ...
Crime Okay

SB Nation Writer And Former NFL Player Denies Child-Abuse Allegations
Last week, the Tampa Bay Times ran a story about Kendrick Morris, who faces sentencing for two rapes he committed in 2007 and 2008, when he was 15 and 16 years old. During a sentencing hearing, a doctor who examined Morris testified that Morris felt remorse for his crimes and could be rehabilitated....
Okay, I'm All In On Derrick Jones Jr. Winning The Dunk Contest
There’s no denying that Suns rookie Derrick Jones Jr. knows how to do some big-ass dunks, but I’ve remained skeptical of the teen’s sleeper candidacy in this year’s dunk contest. In-game dunks and dunk-contest dunks are totally different beasts, and it’s hard to say Jones Jr. really has a shot at de...
Trump's National Security Czar Resigns Over "Compromising Position" With Russia<em></em>
Donald Trump’s national security advisor, Michael Flynn, resigned tonight after just 24 days on the job after revelations that he’d “misled” the administration about a phone call with the Russian ambassador, had likely committed a crime, and was potentially vulnerable to blackmail....
Someone Wanted You To See This Sketchy And Feeble Pro-Dolan Protest Outside MSG
Yesterday afternoon, tipster John Rats sent us a link to a Craigslist post seeking “enthusiastic people to take part in a Pro-Knicks rally before this Sunday’s game against the San Antonio Spurs.” Naturally intrigued, we responded to the ad, which promised $50 to anyone who came out to “support the ...
Who Could Ever Forget That Amazing Arizona Cardinals Super Bowl Win?
ESPN’s Mark Adams related a story he says Rick Pitino told him years about about the resilience of the 2008 Arizona Cardinals, who lost to the Patriots 47-7 and went on to win the Super Bowl. Perhaps Pitino turned the game off with 40 seconds left?...

The latest entry to the Idiot On The Field series took place in Louisville, where 31-year-old Randall Bolton tried to enter the Miami huddle during a first-half timeout of what would go on to be a 71-66 victory for the Cardinals....
Canyon Barry Sets Florida Free Throw Record By Shooting Granny-Style Like His Dad, Rick
Florida guard Canyon Barry has now made 39 consecutive free throws, giving him ownership of the school’s record for most in a row. And he’s done it with the same underhand heave that allowed his dad, Rick Barry, to retire with what was then the highest free throw percentage in NBA history back in 19...
Donald Trump Stunned To Learn Presidency Is An Actual Job, His First
Maybe you’d better sit down for this one. According to a report by Politico, corned-beef dirigible Donald Trump, a skill-free inheritance baby with a virtually unbroken lifelong track record of incompetence and failure, has found that running the United States government is a tougher job than lendin...
Mike Tirico Just Took The Reins From Bob Costas
Despite still looking like a lad fresh out of short pants, Bob Costas is 64 years old and could not continue as the face of NBC Sports forever. His heir has been apparent since last year when NBC hired Mike Tirico, but the transition is happening quicker than we expected....
Johns Hopkins Lacrosse Pulled Off A Flawless Hidden-Ball Trick
Johns Hopkins teammates Joel Tinney and John Crawley, who have underwhelming names for lacrosse players, fooled most of Navy with a hidden-ball trick during Tuesday’s season opener. By the time Tinney delivered his shot, it was too late for the Midshipmen to defend....
Dirk Turned Back The Clock, But It Didn't Even Matter
The Mavericks have been quite feisty over the past few weeks, quickly climbing out of the Western Conference toilet and into the group of bad teams contending for the eight seed. Tonight, they played the Blazers, a fellow mediocre contender to get waxed by the Warriors in the playoffs, and lost in o...
