Borne Back Ceaselessly Into The Crap. <em>The Great Gatsby</em>, Reviewed.
1. I'm confused at to what Baz Luhrmann, the crazy over-the-top director of Moulin Rouge and Romeo + Juliet, would possibly want with The Great Gatsby. Well, I see why he might like it as a theoretical challenge: What ambitious filmmaker (and Luhrmann is nothing if not ambitious) wouldn't want to tr...
NFL Players' Sex House At Center Of Shooting Investigation
Let's make this clear up front: No NFL players are connected to last summer's shooting outside Orlando that left a 15-year-old girl with severe brain damage.

Florida Trial Lawyer John Morgan Running Massive Pro-Tebow Ad Campaign
John Morgan, whose "For The People" slogan has made him Florida's most famed trial attorney, might not seem a likely Tim Tebow supporter.

When watching baseball, if you lose track of a live fly ball off the bat, the easiest way to locate it is usually to watch the outfielder's reaction. But you were shit out of luck if you relied on Marlins rightfielder Marcell Ozuna here. He really had a bead on that ball the Padres' Will Venable hit...
Kris Letang Cross-Checked A Linesman. That's A Suspension...Right?

Kevin Durant's Crossover And Slam: Completely Unfair
Why can a 6-foot-11 guy with unlimited shooting range also dance by his opponent with a filthy crossover at the top of the key before gliding into the paint for a monster dunk? Because, as we've said before, Kevin Durant is more of a walking cheat code than he is a basketball player. That's really ...
