Sportswriters Are Too Outraged By Kareem Hunt To Bother To Learn What Domestic Violence Is<em></em>
The video, once again, is brutal. In the recording from The Metropolitan at the 9 hotel in Cleveland, you can see Kareem Hunt shove and kick a 19-year-old woman.

Dopey Team Does Cool Thing
The Wizards, who are extremely butt, are beating the Knicks in New York Monday night.

The Mariners Have Pulled The Plug
After a couple of trades in the past 24 hours or so, the Seattle Mariners officially suck again, and they don’t even have fond memories of recent playoff runs to keep them warm over what promises to be several years worth of rebuilding.

This Is Too Many Stuffed Toys
I liked stuffed toys. I had a bunch when I was little and despite being 35, I still have Doggy—a stuffed toy that is older than I am, and which is missing its nose and one eye, and also may actually be a rabbit. I had to learn to sew to re-attach Doggy’s head recently....

The NCAA Will Never Give UCF A Chance
The College Football Playoff bracket was set yesterday—pitting Alabama against Oklahoma and Clemson against Notre Dame—and for the second year in a row, the undefeated UCF Knights are nowhere to be found.

The Washington Huskies defeated the Utah Utes on Friday 10-3 to win the Pac-12 Championship and secure a trip to the Rose Bowl.

James Harden Uses Incredible Defensive Awareness To Pull Off No-Look Steal
The idea that “James Harden is so good that he doesn’t even need to try” is mostly used to describe the efforts of last season’s MVP on offense.
