The Capitals Refused To Blink In Game 2
The Golden Knights have trained people to believe that they’re always going to bounce back. All though this postseason, Vegas has shrugged off potentially game-changing goals from their opponents, like Tom Wilson’s tiebreaker in the third period of Game 1, and quickly reasserted control. But in a 3-...
Multiple Women Say They Were Sexually Abused By Their Legendary Equestrian Coach
The New York Times published a story yesterday, part of which was first reported last month by the Chronicle of the Horse, in which multiple women allege they were sexually abused by a once-legendary equestrian coach.

Nick Saban Doesn't Want You To Blame Him For Restricting His Players' Transfers

Steph Curry Breaks The Game
The Golden State Warriors won Game 7 on Monday night because—naturally, and as usual—they dominated the third quarter.

"I'm Having A Ball Right Now!": How The Sports Men Did On The Premiere Of <i>The Bachelorette</i>
Well, here I am, team. Despite what I told myself about not being able to put my body through another season, what with the countless pep talks and endless late nights and the cold Gatorade showers, I’m back. Team, I don’t know how, I don’t know why (well, to be very frank, I do know why: that $$$ c...
The Blue Jays Have Reached The "Russell Martin, Utilityman" Point Of The Season
Russell Martin has been a fine Major Leaguer for a long time, but the 2018 version of Russell Martin is not, by the numbers, the sort of player that a team absolutely needs to squeeze into the lineup unless things have gone terribly wrong. This isn’t yet true for the middling Toronto Blue Jays, who ...

Hell Is Real, And It's The Infield Of The Indy 500
“Where are you going? Heaven or hell?” asked a billboard beside a typically dull stretch of Interstate 65 halfway from Chicago to Indianapolis. Twenty miles south came another sign, this one more urgent than the last, a warning spelled out in white block type against a black background: “HELL IS REA...
Embrace The Spectacle Of Stupid Fun Hockey
They have been telling us for decades—a necessarily nebulous “they,” but one that includes the NHL itself, needing to sell the present brand of hockey shaped by rule changes and coaching revolutions and swollen goalie gear, and certain fans, trying to convince themselves that we’re watching the peak...
The Rockets Missed 27 Straight Threes Because Sometimes Shit Happens<em></em>
Thirty-six point two. That’s the percentage of the 3,470 three-point shots attempted by the Houston Rockets in the regular season that went through the hoop. It’s the number that should have lifted the Rockets, a team that spent the entire season building a 65-win monument to the power and truth of ...
The Warriors Bulldoze Their Way Back To The NBA Finals
For the second game in a row, the Chris Paul-less Houston Rockets held the upper hand against the Warriors after one half of play.

This Jackie Bradley Jr. Over-The-Shoulder Circus Catch Is Totally Unfair
In the top of the sixth inning of today’s Blue Jays-Red Sox game in Boston, Kendrys Morales crushed a long fly ball to the deepest part of Fenway, in straightaway center. This was a double, for sure, except that Red Sox center fielder Jackie Bradley Jr. is a comic book superhero:...

Kyrie Irving Missed Game 7 Due To Corrective Nasal Surgery
A mild hubbub was made by Mark Jackson out of the absence of Kyrie Irving from Boston’s bench in Game 7.
