The Curse Of The 2017 Point Guard Class Is Coming For Dennis Smith Jr.
Among the reasons the Mavericks deserve credit for jumping up and grabbing Luka Dončić in the 2018 NBA Draft—beyond the most obvious one, which is that he kicks mondo ass—is the display of confidence and guts to draft a guy who at least superficially overlaps with a guy they drafted with the ninth p...
I Regret To Inform You That Stephen A. Smith Is In A Feud With The Arizona Cardinals
Stephen A. Smith is constantly whapping back and forth between the poles that make up his on-air persona: entertainer and dummy.

The Flames Can't Keep Winning Like This, But It's Going To Be Fun To Watch Them Try
The Calgary Flames are not hard to figure out. A young, explosive team that will go only so far as its goaltending will take it—which, in any half-logical outcome, is not very far.

Report: MLB Donated To Cindy Hyde-Smith As A Favor To Mitch McConnell
MLB’s explanation for why they donated $5,000 to the runoff campaign of disgraceful shitheel Cindy Hyde-Smith was vague and lame and doesn’t at all function as any kind of credible excuse: “The contribution was made in connection with an event that MLB lobbyists were asked to attend.” Yes, that is h...
