The Sports Highlight Of The Day Is This Cheerleader's Sorcery
This is just a six-second video, but like any great Vine-length work of art, I’ve already slowed it down and watched it frame by frame multiple times, trying to parse its genius....
Serie A Keeper Scores Ridiculous Stoppage Time Goal On Flying Header
AC Milan had a 2-1 lead on last place Benevento in the 95th minute today, with Benevento setting up for a free kick deep in Milan territory. You know what that means: the underdogs pulled keeper Alberto Brignoli forward to load up the box. And is there any way I would be showing you this video if Br...
Leonard Fournette And Jaguars Celebrate Touchdown With Free Throw
Here’s this week’s NFL celebration that makes little sense: After Leonard Fournette’s five-yard touchdown run today, some of the Jacksonville Jaguars lined up for a free throw....
Tiger Woods Has Recovered From His Lousy Saturday And Is Murdering The Ball
We can probably rule out Tiger Woods winning this weekend’s Hero World Challenge in the Bahamas. He was right in it after two rounds, but a Saturday 75 dropped him well back of the lead, and Rickie Fowler has spent Sunday birdying literally all the damn holes, so Tiger is out of it....
Here Is The Exact Moment The Suns Gave Up
The Phoenix Suns were actually up by two on the Celtics in the third quarter in Boston yesterday, but they didn’t show much interest in keeping that lead. With the Suns on defense, some miscommunication led to Marcus Smart having an entire half of the court to himself. Smart couldn’t knock down the ...
Presenting The Al Pacino Matrix
In a lot of ways, getting old is fine. Your body starts doing a bunch of crazy new gross things, first little by little and then all at once, which is especially fun if you’re a fan of Franz Kafka or David Cronenberg. Old habits downshift into dorkier but less damaging obsessions, and you discover t...
NCAA Hits Ole Miss With Two-Year Postseason Ban
The NCAA finally wrapped up its investigation into the Ole Miss recruiting scandal, and the resulting punishment is pretty harsh: a two-year postseason ban, scholarship reductions, and a handful of show-causes for various assistants and administrators....
Giannis Bullied The Blazers
Giannis Antetokounmpo, who is Shaq now, did not have his greatest game against the Blazers last night, scoring 20 points on 7-of-20 shooting in the Bucks’ 103-91 win. He also did some very rude things to some people. ...
The Giants Are Going For Giancarlo Stanton
Baseball’s hot stove is preheating, but nothing major can really get cooking until the winter’s two big deals get done. The first, Japanese import Shohei Ohtani, appears to have no timeline. But the second, the expected trade of Marlins slugger Giancarlo Stanton, sounds like it’s gathering momentum....

Gregg Zaun has been fired from his position as a television analyst for Blue Jays games with Sportsnet after complaints of “inappropriate behavior and comments” from female colleagues....
The Hot Stove Is Now Slightly Above Room Temperature
It is now almost December, and baseball’s hot stove remains distinctly not hot. A bunch of guys are in the kitchen talking about lighting the stove and filling out questionnaires for the chance to set everything on fire, but the stove itself? Not hot. (The main stove, that is. The little campfire st...
Rick Pitino Files $35 Million Suit Against Louisville For Breach Of Contract
After getting fired by the University of Louisville in October, Rick Pitino has filed a lawsuit in federal court accusing the University of breach of contract. Pitino is asking for damages of over $35 million, which he says is the full remaining unpaid amount on his contract that ran until 2026....
Minnesota's Amir Coffey Makes Sweet Butt Shot

These Horny Emails May Have Gotten Former NBA Player Winston Bennett Fired From His Government Job<em></em>
Former Kentucky basketball star Winston Bennett was fired from his position as director of the state labor cabinet’s division of apprenticeship last month, after just 10 weeks on the job.

The Man Cops Say Is My Neighborhood Serial Killer Was A Basketball Walk-On At St. John's
For almost two months, my neighborhood in Tampa has been terrorized by a serial killer. Four people are dead, with nothing connecting them other than that they live here in Seminole Heights. Yesterday, cops arrested Howell “Trai” Donaldson III and charged him with the murders; today, Rob Dauster ov...

Bill Walton Would Fuck You Up
Care to face off against the weather-beaten tree that is Bill Walton in a fight? As evidenced by this training footage, courtesy of Walton’s broadcast partner Dave Pasch, absolutely not. Bill’s a goddamn force. He can take on two opponents at once:...
Andre Drummond Looks Like A New Player
Two years ago, I called Pistons center Andre Drummond a hilarious monster, and it was a fitting description. He was player blessed with the strength and cunning to grab 13.8 rebounds a game (4.3 of them on the offensive glass), and the rock-handed touch to shoot 38.6 percent from the free-throw line...
Tom Savage's Four-Second Press Conference Was The Only Mercy
Tom Savage, you just quarterbacked the Texans to their seventh loss and turned the ball over three more times, including your weekly strip-sack. What do you have to say about it?...
Antonio Brown Can Do Anything
The Steelers are 9-2, they’ve won six straight, and they’re in line for a playoff bye and maybe even home-field advantage in the AFC. Last night, they survived a scare from the Aaron Rodgers-less Packers, thanks to Chris Boswell’s walk-off 53-yard field goal. But we really need to talk about wide re...
