Well, This All Sucks
The entire point of sports, and the main reason it’s any fun, is to see what happens. From the moment last summer when the Golden State Warriors signed Kevin Durant to add to a team that already had three of the, let’s say, 20 best basketball players in the world, we knew what was going to happen. ...

Hat Thief!
A Warriors fan stole Steph Curry’s hat as he headed to the locker room, once again victorious as NBA champion. He wasn’t very happy about it!...

The Warriors Are Victorious
It seems, in retrospect, absurd to think that this game was ultimately decided by single digits. There was never really a point in the second half of Game 5 when it seemed reasonable to believe that Cleveland could win—this was only ever Golden State proving that this team is as historically great a...

The Nationals Bullpen Is A Sad Little Mess
The Nationals bullpen continued their season-long trend of blowing games tonight, with Jacob Turner giving up two runs in the eighth and Matt Albers giving up three in the ninth to collectively turn what had been a late three-run lead into a loss to the Braves. ...

Being A Bandwagon Warriors Fan Is Fun
After Super Bowl XLVII, I was inconsolable over the 49ers’ pants-pissing loss (I’m too young to remember the golden years), and the Giants’ post–World Series Opening Day seemed very, very far away. Bored and kind of depressed about the 49ers (if only I had known how much worse it could get), I began...

The Cavaliers Can't Win Game 5. Or Can They? (No) (But Maybe)
A fun artifact of the past sports year—in which the Golden State Warriors blew a 3-1 lead with home-court advantage in the NBA Finals, the Cleveland Indians blew a 3-1 lead with home-field advantage in the World Series, and the Atlanta Falcons blew a 25-point second-half lead in the Super Bowl—is th...

Internal Memo Instructs Pac-12 Networks Employees On How To Avoid Talking About Luke Heimlich
Last week, the Oregonian reported that Oregon State’s star pitcher Luke Heimlich was charged in 2012 with repeatedly molesting a six-year-old family member throughout 2011. Heimlich, who was 15 when he was charged and pleaded guilty, is one of the best pitchers in the nation and has led his powerhou...

Keeper Absolutely Mortified After Snapping Opponent's Leg With Horrible Tackle
Kenneth Udjus, goalkeeper for Norwegian third-tier club Asker, did a very bad thing this weekend when he clattered into the leg of KFUM player Yassin Rfiffi, flat-out destroying the poor guy’s shin. Udjus immediately looked like he wanted to dig a hole to the center of the Earth and build himself a ...

Australian Rules Football Player Uses His Opponent To Get Major Air<em></em>
Besides the dope referee signals, the coolest thing in Australian rules football is the mark. A mark is when a player cleanly catches a ball that has traveled at least 15 meters (49 feet) in the air. There’s even an annual Mark of the Year contest, awarded to the best one of the season....

Kevin Durant Made No Sense While Denying A Report About Him And Draymond Green
One day before Game 4 of the NBA Finals, ESPN’s Zach Lowe published an article about how the Golden State Warriors moved on from blowing a 3-1 lead in last year’s Finals. The piece specifically focused on Draymond Green’s Game 5 suspension and how the Warriors chose to stand behind Green rather than...

Mexico Equalize, But The U.S. Hold On For Important 1-1 Draw

It Looks Like Zaza Pachulia Will Not Be Suspended For Whacking Iman Shumpert's Dick And Balls

Rafael Nadal Cruises To Record 10th French Open Title
Rafael Nadal won a record 10th French Open title today by making quick work of Stan Wawrinka, 6-2, 6-3, 6-1. Nadal faced one break point all day, and saved it. It was a brutal, dominating performance, and of a guy who just took out world number one Andy Murray, and notched a title of his own at Rola...
