Bernard Tomic Was Just A Little Too Honest<em></em>
Bernard Tomic is a talented 24-year-old Australian who turned pro almost a decade ago and, perhaps relatedly, has a notoriously bad attitude.

Brazilian Soccer Club Rocked By Locker-Room Double Handjob Video Scandal [NSFW]
Sport Clube Gaucho are a Brazilian third-division side who haven’t been relevant since they briefly made the first division in the 1980s. That changed, though, when four players had their contracts rescinded after a video showing one of them jerking off two of his teammates in the club showers leake...
SB Nation Blogger Removed From Masthead Following Deletion Of Bad Post
On Tuesday night, the editor of SLC Dunk, SB Nation’s Utah Jazz blog, posted an article about Gordon Hayward signing with the Boston Celtics.

New York City's Parking Rules Have Turned Me Into A Sociopath
“I’ve never seen you happier,” my wife told me one day last week. She shook her head and rolled her eyes. As I started to do a little dance around our living room, she looked at me with bewilderment. The reason for my burst of happiness? I had parked our car and wouldn’t have to move it for more tha...
There Is Nothing CNN Can’t Fuck Up <em></em>
By now, you know the saga of the Trump CNN tweet: a clumsy wrestling .gif the president sent out (with no hat tip!) that triggered the usual round of establishment tut-tutting and, at first, promised to be yet another disposable Trump mini-scandal that occupied everyone for two minutes before moving...
Dion Waiters Is Rich Now And I've Been Brutally Owned
A little over one year ago, I wrote a blog post about Dion Waiters signing with the Miami Heat on a one-year, $2.9 million deal after turning down a qualifying offer worth $6.8 million from the Thunder. That blog had a shit-eating grin of a headline—Dion Waiters Handled His Free Agency Like He Handl...

Dellin Betances Just Can't Stop Walking Guys
To say that Dellin Betances couldn’t find the zone today is to be extremely generous and extenuative about the whole thing, as should be pretty apparent from the strike zone plot below: ...
Plague Of Flying Ants Descends On Wimbledon
What’s worse than ants in the grass on your summer day outside? Ants that can freaking fly. Wednesday at Wimbledon, flying ants swarmed the grounds, bugging both spectators and players with their shameless, incessant behavior....
Dustin Brown Is The Wackiest Motherfucker In Tennis
The overhead is one of the most straightforward shots in tennis, so straightforward it follows a script. You are standing not too far from the net. A ball is falling down to the court from way up above. Your job is to meet it with your racket over your head, and hard. The only real choice left to yo...
Nick Young Makes Perfect Sense On The Warriors
The most whimsical and doomed NBA teams in recent memory were those Washington Wizards squads between 2008 and 2012 that featured Gilbert Arenas pooping in teammates’s shoes, JaVale McGee fucking up all over the court, and Nick Young pulling up and laying bricks about 20 times a game. Thanks to the ...

David Price Continues His War On The Boston Media
David Price has been extra salty with reporters this year. Right off the bat, he declared that he wouldn’t be speaking to the media except on days when he starts, and then he got into a strange shouting match with CSNNE’s Evan Drellich after a game last month. Lately, it’s been more of the same....
Daniil Medvedev Melts Down At Wimbledon, Tosses Money At Umpire's Chair

It Sucks To Be The Utah Jazz
A little over eight weeks ago, before the Golden State Warriors summarily swept them out of the second round of the playoffs, you could squint at the Utah Jazz and see the outline of a team that might spend the next five years angling to lose in the conference finals, rather than in the first or sec...
