Andre Drummond Looks Like A New Player

Two years ago, I called Pistons center Andre Drummond a hilarious monster, and it was a fitting description.

Yes, our dingus mingus of a President said something dumb and wrong, and once again he is being owned online for it.

Donald Trump Wishes He'd Left UCLA Teens In Chinese Prison Because His Feelings Are Hurt

LaVar Ball Burns President Trump For Supposed Intervention In China

LiAngelo Ball and two other UCLA freshmen shoplifted some expensive sunglasses while in Hangzhou, and were arrested for it.

May Andre Drummond's Recent Free Throw Success Never End

Andre Drummond, in his career, has been a hilariously bad free throw shooter.

There Is No Way Trump Knows The Lyrics To The National Anthem<em></em>

Today is Halloween. Is Tuesday the absolute shittiest possible day for Halloween to land on? Why yes, I believe it’s neck and neck with Monday for that particular honor.
