Leicester's Manager Is Deeply Moved By Messages From Fans
Claudio Ranieri is impossible to hate. Not only has he masterminded Leicester City’s miracle year, one of the most improbable underdog seasons in the history of sports, but he’s done so with such easy-going charm, shrugging off pressure and always deflecting credit to his players. It’s won him as ma...

Two Butt Teams Combine To Play Butt Game
Real Madrid and Manchester City—two teams that kind of suck in similar ways, and are lucky to even be here thanks to their fortunate draws leading up to this point—met in the Champions League semifinal today.

Fan-Shot Video From Game 4: Russell Westbrook Tells A Heckler To "Shut The Fuck Up"
On Saturday, Russell Westbrook cursed at a heckler. (More than one, it seems!) On Sunday, he was fined $25,000 for it. Last night, video of one incident emerged, and though I have absolutely no idea what was said to tick off Westbrook, it was entirely worth it just for the fan’s stunned, sulky react...

Kevin Durant And Russell Westbrook Torch Mark Cuban And Charlie Villanueva
There’s no trash talk quite like end-of-series trash talk. It’s easy to be magnanimous in victory, but it’s not nearly as much fun as pointing to the scoreboard as you lob a Molotov cocktail through the window on your way out of the building. After the Thunder finished off the Mavericks in five game...
Russell Westbrook, Goddamn
The last thing Russell Westbrook needs is extra motivation, and yet—before his team sent the Dallas Mavericks out of the playoffs this evening with a 118-104 win—Mavericks owner Mark Cuban went and said that Russell Westbrook was not a superstar. So Westbrook immediately set to playing like a supers...

The Best Party In England Is A Leicester City Game
Nobody who showed up to the stadium or tuned in to watch Leicester play Swansea this weekend would’ve come away overly impressed by the quality of the game itself. Leicester did play well, dominating from the first whistle until the last, and sent four goals past the Swans’ keeper. But what made thi...

The Case For Having A Joint Bachelor/Bachelorette Party
If you’ve been dreaming of strippers and penis-shaped candy since puberty, clear it with your soon-to-be-spouse (both the specific plans and your marriage priorities) and party on.

"Raspberry Beret" Is The Best Pop Song Anyone Ever Did
Everyone has opinions about Prince today, and pretty much all of them are good and right, but let’s take a second to talk about “Raspberry Beret,” which is—I would argue—the single most perfect pop song anyone has ever done, slightly more perfect than the Kinks’ “Waterloo Sunset” or Big Star’s “Sept...
Charlie Villanueva Gets In Nice Underhanded Burn
There was a funny little moment before Dallas’ dramatic Game 2 victory over Oklahoma City, when Mavericks reserve Charlie Villanueva interrupted the pre-game dance routine of Russell Westbrook and Cameron Payne.
