Dennis Farina In Most Chicago Beer Ad Ever
Millions of people like me are convinced that Chicago remains, despite rampant gun violence, a collapsing public school system, and gangs of hoodlums menacing bewildered tourists downtown, the very best place to live, or at least drink beer, in the United States.

Who Is This Hack Who Wrote About Colin Kaepernick's Tattoos, And Why Is He Such A Racist Dicktroll?

Mitch Albom Is The Meat In Baseball's Dumbfuck Stew
I'm gonna preface all this by telling you that I don't really watch baseball, nor do I particularly care who won the AL MVP award. But the beauty of reading a terrible Mitch Albom column is that you don't HAVE to know much about anything, because Mitch will always deliberately know less than you. Mi...
Steve Smith Goes Big Willie Style
Steve Smith had himself a totally average day: 41 yards receiving and one touchdown.

Following a 19 yard reception in the second quarter Steve did this little (???) dance ...
Shaq Is Rapping Like A Weirdo Again, Dissing Dwight Howard
What you see above is Shaquille O'Neal hanging out in what looks like his mom's basement with two of his friends and spitting what I guess qualifies as a freestyle rap.

The Ohio University Marching Band Doing That Gangnam Style Thing Is Actually Pretty Good
I wanted to hate it, you know? Hot viral microshare reblog blah blah blah. But I also wanted to hate the actual video, and that's obviously the shit, so what can you do? These stupid nerds rocked it.

Rick Reilly Has Golf Jokes For You Because Rick Reilly Is Everything Horrible About ESPN
Do me a favor right now: Drive out to your local exurb. Now, find the nearest Cheesecake Factory in that exurb, walk up to the bar, and try and spot the 40-year-old fellow wearing pleated chinos, loafers, and a button-down shirt with his real-estate company's logo on it. You see that guy? THAT is Ri...
Haughty Dipshit Gregg Easterbrook Makes Us Ask: What <em>Is</em> A Glory Boy?
If you've hung out around this site in the past, you know that we consider ESPN fartsniffer Gregg Easterbrook to be a haughty dipshit.
