The Miami Heat are going for it again, and whether or not you think it’ll work doesn’t matter
It’s the annual time of year where people get instantly overly fixated on whether or not things will work well before they even happen. For example, the day before NBA free agency began, reports surfaced about Kyle Lowry being signed and traded from the Toronto Raptors to the Miami Heat as soon as i...
Nice record you broke there — be a shame if I broke it by more
In 1983, Edwin Moses broke his own world record in the 400-meter hurdles, blazing home in 47.02 seconds at a meet in Koblenz, Germany. The following year, Moses won his second Olympic gold medal in the event, but he never did break the 47-second barrier — that didn’t happen until Kevin Young ran a...

Deadspin fixes American sports: We need to abolish trades
Admittedly, I’ve spent the week in a blind rage thanks to the trade deadline in MLB. And that’s due to my former baseball flame, the Cubs, making a spectacle of themselves. But I’ve written that article, and may have to write it again later today should this be the day the Cubs ship Kris Bryant off ...
Aw nuts, Man United might have figured it out
We should have enjoyed it more, if it is indeed over: the period of time where Manchester United couldn’t stop tripping over its own dick, burned through name managers simply because they had a name, bought mediocre players for astronomic prices simply to appear to be in action, and generally spun t...
Team USA takes out all its frustrations on Iran, but it’ll only get tougher from here

Cleveland baseball has a new name, and the merch is gonna be sweet
A professional sports team that previously had a moniker representative of Native American culture that vowed to change its name has done so. It’s not the Washington Football Team — it’s the former Cleveland Indians (Ed. note: And that’s the last time you will ever see that name on this website — RO...
Horns down for weak-ass ’Horns ruling
The best part about being a sports fan is the territorial nature that comes with it. Most White Sox fans hate the Cubs. Most Mets fans hate the Yankees (but so does everyone else). Every Eagles fan hates the Cowboys and vice versa. The rivalries and contempt that several fanbases have for one anothe...

At some point this coming football season (oh and side note, training camps start next week so football season is basically here), the oldest starting quarterback in the AFC East will be Josh Allen, the No. 7 overall pick only three years ago. This division is far and away the youngest division of s...

No, you cannot hit a 100 mph fastball
The incredibly stupid debate over whether it’s harder to hit a 100 mph fastball or hit a half-court shot has been on the internet for a while, because if there’s a stupid debate to be had, it’ll happen online at some point....
Olympic athletes who could protest in Tokyo
