Jameis Winston Yells "Fuck Her Right In The Pussy," Killing Meme
Florida State quarterback Jameis Winston stood on a table and yelled "fuck her right in the pussy" on campus today, according to a bunch of students who saw him. For the unaware, "Fuck her right in the pussy" was a fake video that turned into a meme, with a few people shouting it on live news broa...
Sierra Nevada Flipside Red IPA Is A Decent "September Beer" Forgery
I talk to a lot of beer geeks these days, which isn't as bad as it sounds. But, brothers and sisters, it's still not always good. A lot of these conversations quickly devolve into pissing contests over who has spent more time waiting in brewery parking lots in Vermont or who's got a bigger stash o...
James Dolan And His Dopey Band Went On TV And Things Got Awkward
James Dolan went on Good Day New York this morning to talk about his corny-ass blues band and play multiple(!) songs in studio. He was on the show for so long, but the highlight of his appearance was when co-anchor Rosanna Scotto couldn't remember the name of Dolan's band while introducing them fo...
Even Bank Robbers Decide What Tie To Wear: The Essence Of Elmore Leonard
Hard to imagine having a cooler job than the one Gregg Sutter had for more than 30 years, when he served as the late Elmore Leonard's researcher. Sutter is the editor of the Library of America's Elmore Leonard anthology, which will be released in three volumes, the first of which was published a f...
Drink Sapporo With Your Sushi, Like A Reasonable Person
Even though I'm a fervent season-change denier, the lengthening of sleeves and shortening of afternoons is making it harder and harder to avoid the reality of the impending fall. But the silver lining there is that my wedding anniversary is in the fall, so now's as good a time as any to lead off a...
How Is This Photo Of Nicki Minaj's Allegedly Fake Butt Not A Photoshop?
Some people think this is a fake butt. Others thought it was a photoshop, but the photo is from the Getty wire, which is not where you usually find conspiracy-driving photoshops. It doesn't look especially physiologically possible, one way or another. ...

You <em>Could</em> Watch Floyd Mayweather's Shitty, Overpriced PPV. But Why?
Since our article on Floyd Mayweather ran in July, I've received notes from countless fans and even a number of professional boxing writers who've said that they cannot continue to support a man with his history of battering women and utter lack of remorse. Even ESPN got in on the act—well, ESPNw d...
Jenny Simpson, Jordan McNamara Win 2014 Fifth Avenue Mile
It's no surprise that the year's number one miler Jenny Simpson wasted a quality field in today's Fifth Avenue Mile, earning her third overall title. But the real shocker came in the men's race, where Jordan McNamara of the Oregon Track Club Elite made a late surge for the win....

Mayweather, On Being A Serial Woman Beater: "Only God Can Judge Me"
Floyd Mayweather beats women. This much is obvious, but for whatever reason it took Rachel Nichols on CNN's Unguarded to actually ask "Money" about his long history as a misogynist and domestic abuser in light of his upcoming bout Saturday against Marcos Maidana. His answers will leave you quite u...

Did you hear about this? Yeah, James Dolan wrote a song about Trayvon Martin. Take all the time you need to compose yourself. ...
"But If Your Thing Is ... Beating Up Women," The Girl Said To Jim Brown
Over at The Stacks, we've reprinted Pete Dexter's 1981 profile of Jim Brown, written 15 years after the legendary running back retired. Much of the profile is concerned with Brown's romantic and personal relationships, including those that earned him a reputation as an abuser of women....

Watch This Bonkers <em>Universal Soldier</em> Sequel, But Skip The First Scene
Universal Soldier, you may remember, was a blast of pure 1992 cheese in which Jean-Claude Van Damme and Dolph Lundgren play reanimated Vietnam super-soldiers who fight each other. It was pretty good! It was, in fact, the only pretty good movie ever made by German director Roland Emmerich, and its su...
Jazz Needs A Better Sense of Humor
What can it mean for jazz as a living art when the most hotly debated genre event of 2014 was a satirical post on a humor blog? Only Charlie Haden's death earlier that month can rival the New Yorker's awkward July 31 unveiling of writer Django Gold's "Sonny Rollins: In His Own Words," a 480-word g...
Cam Newton Gives Same Answer Five Times, Talks About "Donkey Kong Suh"
Cam Newton's media session today was entertaining, to say the least. Reporters asked Newton, who was held out of the Panthers' Week 1 game with a rib injury, about his health and a possible contract extension. Taking a page from Arian Foster, the Panthers quarterback pretty much ignored them....
