Hey, James Harden Made A Good Defensive Play!
We often clown on James Harden for his agnostic indifference to defense. It’s jarring to watch him imitate a statue or pick the absolute worst time to ask his buddy about something in an NBA game full of NBA players. I’m sure he also makes plenty of good defensive plays (Basketball Reference is tell...

I'm Pretty Sure Most Straight Men Would Have Sex with The Rock
I have a lot of respect for people’s sexual preferences and mostly think they’re not to be questioned so long as everyone involved is a consenting adult. That being said, I’m pretty sure most of you straight dudes would have sex with The Rock, even if publicly you say that you wouldn’t....

The Deranged True Story Of <i>Heavy Metal Parking Lot</i>, The <i>Citizen Kane</i> Of Wasted Teenage Metalness

Sounds Like Some Bad Blood Between The Broncos And Brock Osweiler
Brock Osweiler feels he’s more likely to be successful with the Texans than he would have been with the Broncos. The Broncos believe they’re better off without Osweiler at QB for the price he was asking. I’m sure we all have strong feelings on who is correct (it could be both! It could be neither.),...

Report: The Broncos Would Go After Colin Kaepernick If They Lose Brock Osweiler

Report: The Broncos Could Lose Brock Osweiler To The Texans
