P.K. Subban Turns Down Fight By Declaring Himself A "Pussy," Telling Opponent How Much He Sucks
Predators defenseman P.K. Subban had himself a nice little chat with Avalanche defender Nikita Zadorov during a stoppage in play in Nashville’s 4-1 last night.

How Will Jalen Ramsey Ever Recover From These Burns?
Jaguars cornerback Jalen Ramsey did us all the favor of telling GQ exactly which NFL quarterbacks are bad trash and which are actually good. Ramsey’s takes were entertaining and refreshing on their own, but they have also provided us with another level of entertainment: each maligned quarterback bei...
Joel Embiid Almost Made T.J. McConnell Cry By Beating His Ass At Video Games

Joel Embiid Has Perfected Shit-Talking
Joel Embiid didn’t have the kind of monster game we’ve grown accustomed to seeing during last night’s win over the Jazz—his 15 points and 11 rebounds were perfectly solid—but he did provide the highlight of the game....

UFC Moron Gets Hit With A Boomerang After Calling Brazilians "Filthy Animals" [Update]
UFC welterweight contender Colby Covington has fashioned himself as a heel, although unlike, say, fellow heel Michael Bisping, Covington’s idea of a good troll is to just call the champ in his division a scared girl until he agrees to fight him. He’s also into shitting on Brazilian fighters and call...
Joel Embiid Packed A Season's Worth Of Shit-Talking Into One Game
The Philadelphia 76ers, who are maybe good, beat the Clippers, who are maybe bad, in Los Angeles last night, thanks to a big night from their big center Joel Embiid.

Bucs Clarify They Won't Let Internet Tough Guys Come Talk Shit With Gerald McCoy
If you heard Gerald McCoy’s call to come to the Buccaneers’ headquarters and talk your shit to his face yesterday, I have bad news for you: The Bucs won’t let you, because answering McCoy’s call to come “hold court” with him does not (for some reason) constitute “official business.”...
Mayweather Drops The Word "Faggot" On McGregor In The Press Tour From Hell
Mercifully, the Mayweather-McGregor Press Extravaganza From Hell is reaching its conclusion this evening, after a week of toxic shit talking and a week of general stupid bullshit.

Michael Johnson and Justin Gaethje will fight in Las Vegas in a week to close up this season of The Ultimate Fighter.

De'Aaron Fox's Dad Isn't Having Any Of LaVar Ball's Bullshit
De’Aaron Fox will almost certainly be a top-five pick in Thursday night’s NBA draft, although this draft is silly with point guards and he will likely be the third lead guard selected. It’s inevitable that Fox will be judged alongside Markelle Fultz, Lonzo Ball, and Frank Ntilikina as this class of ...
Kevin Lee's Joke About Michael Chiesa's Mom Sparks On-Stage <em></em>Brawl At UFC Press Conference

Before the Nuggets flipped him to Portland for one of the Plumlee twins, Bosnian big man Jusuf Nurkic was averaging 17 disgruntled minutes and eight points a game.
