Mariners Reliever Ryan Cook Yelled "Shit!" So Loudly After Giving Up A Walk-Off Homer To Giancarlo Stanton, MLB Had To Edit It Out

The Yankees capped a comeback from down 5-0 with a Giancarlo Stanton walk-off home run to beat the Mariners 7-5. It was Stanton’s first walk-off as a Yankee. Cool story. We’re not here for that. We’re here for the swear word!...

Very Chill Rockets Fans Are Already Leaving One-Star Reviews For Ayesha Curry's New Restaurant<em></em>

Celebrity chef Ayesha Curry, wife of the Golden State Warriors’ Steph, is opening a second location in Houston this July for her and Michael Mina’s BBQ restaurant International Smoke.

Dwight Howard Reaches Sad, Strange New Stage Of His Career

Here we are, again: Dwight Howard is switching teams for the fourth straight offseason. After failing to live up to expectations as a franchise cornerstone with the Rockets, flopping as a hometown hero with the Hawks, and failing to make an impact as a veteran leader with the Hornets (lol), Howard h...

Predators' Austin Watson Arrested For Domestic Assault

As first reported by the Tennessean this morning, Nashville Predators forward Austin Watson was arrested Saturday and charged with domestic assault after he argued with his girlfriend at a gas station and shoved her. A witness flagged down a Franklin PD car around 7 p.m. to report “a possible domest...

Jackie Bradley Jr. Threw The Fuck Out Of This Ball

Jackie Bradley Jr. has been having a truly nightmarish season at the plate. The kind you tell your kids about, the kind that would otherwise warrant a player riding the bench for much of the year. We’re talking about a .182/.279/.297, four-dingers-through-65-games sort of season. But his defense is ...

The Most Thrilling Drama In The NBA Tonight Is Gregg Popovich And Kawhi Leonard Possibly Having A Meeting

The Kawhi Leonard trade saga has so far been short on specific news about the possibly still-injured Spurs forward’s future home, though the Lakers are supposedly the California native’s preferred destination. But it’s getting long on ridiculously specific media reports, which is really what’s neces...

Alleged Cyberbully Fiancé<em></em> Mike Hoffman Laundered Through Sharks To Panthers

In an obvious, inevitable move, the Ottawa Senators dumped longtime forward Mike Hoffman this morning in a trade to the San Jose Sharks. In the deal, the Sens got a replacement winger in Mikkel Boedker, defensive prospect Julius Bergman, and a late draft pick. More importantly, they also got the cha...

The Football Player Flips A Log On <i>The Bachelorette</i>, And The Football Knower Gets Eliminated

Team, there are roster cuts every week, but this round was tough. Our numbers have been depleted during an away game in Park City, Utah. (Lucky for them, the state’s previously stringent liquor laws have abated in recent years; if they hadn’t, it’s hard to imagine our players would have performed a...

My Weird Son Deandre Ayton Is The Green Goblin

When the Phoenix Suns draft big lanky Arizona lad Deandre Ayton with the No. 1 overall pick on Thursday, as they are expected to do, they will also receive Josh, Eric, and Alejandro. Those aren’t members of Ayton’s entourage or family, but three distinct personalities that inhabit the very large bod...

Cocky Millennial Busted By Bartolo Colon's Pick-Off Move<em></em>

The Royals’ Whit Merrifield has 15 stolen bases on the year, and Rangers pitcher Bartolo Colon had yet to pick off a baserunner this season heading into tonight. In this case, one would think that the 29-year-old on first base would have the clear advantage over the 45-year-old on the mound. But tha...

Strong Teen Juan Soto Smacked The Hell Out Of This Dinger

Juan Soto is 19 years old and has been in the majors for less than a month, and he’s already qualified as a Yankee killer. He followed up last week’s two-homer game in the Bronx by hitting this absolute dong during the resumption of a suspended game today in D.C.: ...

<i>Boston Globe</i> Columnist Gets Three-Month Unpaid Suspension For Marathon Bombing Story Fabrications

Barry Trotz Is Stepping Down As Capitals Coach

In news that comes as a pretty huge surprise, Washington Capitals head coach Barry Trotz is resigning—not re-signing, but resigning—just 11 days after winning the Stanley Cup. He’s apparently got two pretty good reasons....

The Sacramento Kings are going to find a way to waste the second overall pick on Thursday. Perhaps to mark the occasion, the Sacramento Bee just published an extensive look at the disaster that unfolded the last time the Kings picked in the top two and chose “Out Of Service” Pervis Ellison with the ...

LeBronWatch: Kawhi To The Cavs, Keeping LeBron Put

From Cleveland.com’s Terry Pluto comes a report that the Cleveland Cavaliers “are one of several teams making calls to San Antonio about Kawhi Leonard.”...

Chicharito Earned Those Tears

Javier “Chicharito” Hernández was not the best Mexican player on the field in Sunday’s World Cup match against Germany. That honor probably belongs to goal-scorer Hirving Lozano, or any of El Tri’s defensive midfielders and center backs who spent the game stoning Germany’s attacks. Hernández was not...

Yes, That Video Of Obama That Mike Leach Tweeted Is Very Fake [Update]

Mike Leach might’ve officially lost it....

Idiot On The Field Has Zero Moves, Gets Speared To Hell

An idiot invaded the field today at the College World Series, during a rain delay in the Arkansas-Texas game. This goofy, happy-to-be-here fellow perhaps didn’t appreciate the seriousness of his act, nor the potential severity of the stadium crew’s response, and for that he paid dearly:...

The U.S. Open Sucks And Is Dumb

A fun thing about Tommy Fleetwood’s final round at the U.S. Open Sunday—apart from the fact that he looks distractingly like Kenny Loggins circa 1981—is that he made birdies. Lots of them! So many, in fact, that he finished with a 63 on Sunday, just one stroke away from a U.S. Open record. Fleetwood...
