It's Just Nice To See Dipset Hanging Out Together Again
The new Dipset song, "Have My Money," is good, but now there's a cool, laid-back video to match the old-school beat, and it makes the song itself a jillion times better. Besides, it's just good to see the apparently reunited Harlem rap collective hanging out and having a good time. ...

Ronda Rousey Isn't The Female Anyone; She's The First Ronda Rousey
On Saturday night, undefeated UFC women's bantamweight champion Ronda Rousey took on Cat Zingano, a strong and undefeated fighter in her own right, and one of maybe two women alive who, on paper at least, possibly had a chance to at least maybe show Rousey something.

Russell Westbrook whirling dervished his way to a third straight triple-double last night, the kind of performance we've come to expect in his incredible February.

Oh My God Oh My God I Think Russell Westbrook Could Beat Up My Dad
Last night, while we were all arguing about a black-and-blue dress, Russell Westbrook and a gaggle of tall men who were not Kevin Durant were a half-hour down the road from where the llamas were dodging the cops, playing the Phoenix Suns.

Will Smith Is A Blank Slate Now, And <i>Focus </i>Doesn't Help
