This morning on the MMA Hour, Georges St-Pierre said that his contract with the UFC has been terminated.

Get A Load Of These Outlandish <i>Westworld</i> Fan Theories
HBO’s Westworld is draped with the trappings of the horror, action adventure, and Western genres, but it’s best understood as a mystery.

Please Stay The Fuck Out Of This, Canada

WikiLeaks Emails Show Clinton Aides Cowering In Fear Of Seeming To Care About The Poor
Here is a remarkable bit from the recently WikiLeaked emails of John Podesta, chairman of Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign. If it doesn’t quite reveal some nefarious master plan for technoligarch world domination, it at least provides an opportunity to goggle at some extremely dumb campaign s...
What The Hell Is Jose Bautista On About?
The Toronto Blue Jays are down 2-0 in the ALCS after scoring just one run on 10 hits through 18 innings. If you were to ask any baseball fan with two eyes why that is, they’d tell you it’s because the Jays have been dominated by the Indians’ pitchers, particularly Andrew Miller and the rest of the ...
NFL Will Review Vontaze Burfict's Latest Dirty Hit
Yesterday was only Vontaze Burfict’s third game of the season—the Bengals LB missed the first three with a suspension for, functionally, all the dirty shit he’s done—and he’s already in fine form. ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports the NFL is reviewing a low hit he put on Patriots tight end Martellus Benn...
Odell Beckham Jr. Scores 75-Yard Touchdown, Performs Elaborate Touchdown Celebration
Odell Beckham Jr. has had an underwhelming start to the season and has been in a funk because of it, but the Giants receiver looked like his happy old self today after burning the Ravens for a 75-yard touchdown. He made the most out of his celebration....

Salty-Ass Cristiano Ronaldo Flips Out After Teammate Laughs At Him
Regular human beings Danilo and Marcelo shared a laugh during Real Madrid training yesterday after the former did that funny little thing that sometimes happens during piggy-in-the-middle games and passed the ball between Cristiano Ronaldo’s legs.

Dusty Baker Panicked
Dusty Baker had a choice to make heading into the seventh inning of last night’s NLDS finale, and both options would have been defensible. Nobody would have blamed him for keeping Max Scherzer, who had thrown 99 pitches and worked himself through some high-stress situations at that point, on the ben...
The Seventh Inning Of Dodgers-Nationals Was Insane And Made Me Feel Insane
The seventh inning of the Dodgers’ eventual 4-3 NLDS Game 5 win was the wildest single inning of baseball since a certain other seventh inning of a division series Game 5 played exactly one year ago today. Where do we even start? Well, we start by saying that if it seemed like everything happened in...
Clayton Kershaw Saves The Day; Los Angeles Dodgers Advance To NLCS
The Los Angeles Dodgers beat the Washington Nationals, 4-3, this evening to take the NLDS and set up a date in Chicago with the Cubs.
