Dez Bryant Doesn't "Give A Fuck" What You Think About His Yelling
Cowboys receiver Dez Bryant has a habit of getting really energetic on the sidelines. As we've found out via the NFL's access to players, Bryant just likes shouting to keep his teammates' morale high. He and corner Orlando Scandrick were yelling on the bench last night so the Cowboys could hold thei...

Ryan Leaf Is Out Of Prison And He Looks Terrible
Why, yes, the tale of Ryan Leaf can get sadder. For proof, here is his latest mugshot, snapped yesterday before he was released from a Montana prison. Leaf, once the man with the arm that could not fail (except it did), now kinda looks like a sad dad. A really sad dad. Oh boy, this is sad. ...

Laptop Man Unfazed By Kobe-Rondo Meeting
Kobe Bryant and Rajon Rondo got breakfast together in Boston this morning, which is fine and good and probably means that Kobe is trying to convince Rondo to come play with him in L.A. so that the two can form some kind of super team of surly-assness and eventually kill each other. But that's not wh...

The Jets Are Out Of Ideas
Before the Jets fell, ugly, to the Dolphins and to 2-10, every offensive starter received an individual pregame introduction. Every starter save Geno Smith, who entered, quietly, with the rest of the team....

Ryan Fitzpatrick's Kid Shows Off His Elite Math Skills
Texans quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick had a career day, throwing for six touchdowns and 358 yards in today's win over the Titans. But his son Brady was the star of Fitzpatrick's postgame, showing off his multiplication skills with double-digit numbers....

Report: The New York Jets Are Still Dysfunctional
The New York Jets have been nothing short of flaming dog poop this year. The quarterback situation has been an especially vital part of the circus act. It started back in training camp, when coaches were upset that Michael Vick was content with his backup role at quarterback. As our Samer Kalaf put ...

Kobe Bryant Is Not Even Pretending To Respect His Teammates Anymore
This moment, from yesterday's game between the Lakers and Denver Nuggets, is just perfect representation of Kobe Bryant's current relationship with his teammates....

Kobe Bryant Airballs From Siberia As The Lakers Lose by 34
The other day my colleague Albert Burneko worried that Nick Young's return had improbably elevated the Lakers from "gonzo terribleness to bland mediocrity." Worried because the Lakers' spectacular brand of suck has been the most entertaining subplot early in this surprisingly dismal NBA season, and ...

Why The Lakers' Brand Of Suck Matters
That Nick Young's return to the lineup would coincide with the Lakers' ascent from gonzo terribleness to bland mediocrity fits, really. Both because at every stop in his NBA career Nick Young has done whatever would annoy me the most, but also because "Swaggy P" is the basketball embodiment of a tw...

The Funniest Thing In Sports: Kobe Bryant Chucking At Historic Levels
Kobe Bryant shot a combined 16-for-48 in the two ass-kickings the Lakers absorbed over the weekend. Even the bad guys from Rambo III are all, "Jesus, man, that's a lotta terrible shooting." The friggin' Ethyl Higby Charm School doesn't have that many misses....

Records Show Cop Visits To Dez Bryant's Home Were Mostly Nothingburgers
On Sunday, NFL.com's Ian Rapoport reported that the Cowboys had some "concerns" over Dez Bryant's off-the-field behavior, and he cited a handful of times the cops were called to Bryant's house. Surely the team's airing of these concerns had nothing at all to do with the fact that the star wide recei...

Rex Ryan Fined $100,000 For Yelling "Fuck You"
As time expired on Sunday and the Jets snapped their eight-game losing streak, Rex Ryan let loose with some hearty and satisfying profanity. It'll cost him $100,000, per Chris Mortensen....

Monty Williams Was There For Ryan Anderson After Girlfriend's Suicide
Sports Illustrated's Chris Ballard has a devastating piece on Pelicans forward Ryan Anderson, who in August 2013 was the one to discover his girlfriend Gia Allemand in her New Orleans home, hanging by her neck from a vacuum-cleaner cord. It is a hard, hard read, but there is goodness here—much of ...

Kobe And The Lakers Do Dumb Shit; Anthony Davis Dismisses Them
The ridiculous, bad-basketball-playin'-ass Lakers lost again last night, 109-102 in New Orleans, to fall to 1-7. Basically, they performed how you might expect them to on the second night of a road back-to-back: they won the first quarter with some fluky hot shooting, then sagged badly in the middl...

All Hail Kobe Bryant And The Lakers, Lords Of Madness
First things first: You don't get to miss more shots than anybody else in NBA history by being bad at basketball. That record would be Larry Hughes's if he didn't, y'know, suck at everything, and in this sense, the all-time missed-shots record is a perverse monument to Kobe Bryant's greatness. He ...

Kobe Bryant Breaks All-Time NBA Record For Missed Shots
Kobe Bryant is officially the all-time greatest player in NBA history at failing to make a basket. Soak in this historic moment! 13,418 is a large number....

The Dez Bryant Smear Season Is Upon Us
Dez Bryant will be a free agent after the season, and the Cowboys would prefer to hammer out a contract extension for the wide receiver before then. There are very few times in a career when a football player has any leverage in a negotiation with an NFL team, and Bryant is currently enjoying one su...

Seahawks Mascot's Tail Looks Like A Big Ol' Dong
Seahawks punter Jon Ryan's girlfriend Sarah Colonna took a photo with team mascot Blitz. Ryan later noticed that Blitz's tail was in the photo, but it didn't look like his tail....
