American Defender Matt Miazga Fined For Honking Opponent's Dick

In Spain's La Liga, Celebrating A Goal Is Apparently Worse Than Racism And Sexism
Sunday’s La Liga match between Barcelona and Espanyol was an eventful affair.

The people of Cobb County, Ga., have a budget conundrum on their hands, thanks to craven former county chairman Tim Lee’s insistence on spending almost $400 million in public money for a stadium without giving the public a chance to vote on it. Despite a record-high tax digest, the county is $30 to ...
Jeff Fisher Must Be Arrested And Tried For His Crimes Against Football
Back in November, when the Los Angeles Rams revealed themselves as a legitimately formidable and dominant team, a significant share of the success seemed like it could be credited to simply getting rid of head coach and possible quarterback poisoner Jeff Fisher.

Donald Trump's Super Bowl Shindig Was So Weird
One of the many odd sidebars to the Trump presidency has been seeing what happens when an unsocialized puff pastry who has lived his entire life in an environment custom-built to nurture his weirdest impulses is suddenly asked to do the sort of ceremonial normal things presidents are supposed to do....
The NFL's Women Summit Was The Mindless Pandering It Always Was Meant To Be
First, let’s get this out of the way: The NFL and its franchises are a corporate enterprise. They exist to make money. They don’t exist to do anything else. They do not exist to make this a better world. They do not exist to uplift anyone. They do not exist to enact change on inequality or ending po...
C.J. McCollum Went Wild In The First Quarter
C.J. McCollum wasted no time in getting a little piece of Trail Blazers history for himself tonight, breaking the team record for points in a single quarter with 28 in the first.

They Should Leave Andre Drummond Out Of All-Star Games More Often
Andre Drummond is having the best season of his career, thanks in huge part to improvements as a free-throw shooter and passer, but it wasn’t enough to earn him his second All-Star selection. On Tuesday, he took his frustrations to Twitter:...
What's The Best Possible Animal Army In A Battle To The Death?
Here’s a rock-dumb hypothetical the staff has been arguing about for a few hours: If you were forced to choose two groups of fighters from the following draft class of eight kinds of animals and one guy with a gun, what’s the best possible defense you can construct for yourself against the remaining...
Let Me Show You My Pogs: The League Before Time
I grew up a collector. Maybe it’s genetic. Maybe I was brainwashed, growing up in the era of Saturday morning cartoon shows, video games and pizza bribes for school work. But I liked to collect things: Baseball cards, action figures, video games, whatever....
