Jeff Fisher—coach of the 4-7 Rams, losers of six of seven and owners of the least productive offense in football—is currently embroiled in a feud with Eric Dickerson, who starred for the Rams the last time they were (good) in Los Angeles. The beef stems from Fisher reportedly banning Dickerson from ...
Rams Legend Eric Dickerson Says Team Banned Him From Sidelines Over Criticism
Eric Dickerson is one of the most iconic players in Los Angeles Rams franchise history.

What If Jeff Fisher Is Just An Expert Troll?
The thought of Jeff Fisher evokes the phrase “experienced mediocrity.” He shuffles along with the Rams, underachieving here and there, while carrying a lengthy, but not necessarily good, résumé as a shield to protect his job. Based on what Fisher did Sunday, though, I’m starting to wonder whether he...
Half The Chiefs Had No Idea They Won
I very much enjoy this photo, taken just as Cairo Santos banked in the 34-yard, game-winning field goal off the left upright, because no one’s really sure if it was good or not.

Defensive coordinator Gregg Williams and New Orleans Saints head coach Sean Payton have a history.

Gregg Popovich Goes Off On His Team After "Pathetic Performance"
The San Antonio Spurs held off a very resilient, shorthanded Dallas Mavericks team by five points tonight at home.

Julius Randle Did A Very Rude Thing To Nikola Mirotic
Lakers forward Julius Randle is proving to be a lot of fun. He’s already shown that he has the right combination of skill and sass to truly antagonize his opponents, and last night he showed an ability to treat defenders the way a grizzly bear treats a meal....

That Time Chris Paul Memorized An Eye Chart To Try And Cheat A Vision Test
Chris Paul got eye surgery this summer, a vision-enhancing procedure he needed for some time. It’s hard to believe that one of the best point guards of his generation got by without perfect vision for so long, but he apparently did. Paul’s brother and father got their eyes fixed during Paul’s rookie...
