"Scott Van Pelt Still Look Like A Penis," And Other Mean CFB Tweets
Here's the obligatory Disney conglomerate mean-tweet-reading reacharound. There's a good SVP joke in there, but as always, what you're looking for here is the moron who can't even ham up a tweet correctly (it's Jesse Palmer, who sucks). ...

Aaron Boone Goes Knuckle-Deep On ESPN Megacast
Aaron Boone is one of a number of ESPN personalities featured on tonight's Megacast "ESPN Voices" broadcast on ESPNU, which has mostly consisted of allowing viewers to watch talent eat food. Or in Aaron Boone's case, watch him pick his nose....

ESPN Blames Cardale Jones's Inexperience For Loss That Hasn't Happened
ESPN obviously has a number of graphics and stories ready so that no matter how tonight's national title game proceeds, they'll be ready with the instant analysis. If Ohio State loses and substitute QB Cardale Jones plays poorly—which doesn't look likely, given how well Jones is doing—ESPN will focu...

Kevin Garnett Chucks Ball At, Headbutts Dwight Howard
Usually it is Kevin Garnett getting under his opponent's skin. But there is something so profoundly unlikeable about Dwight Howard—see Kevin Durant, Kobe Bryant, some heckler, and Ice Cube—that the normally cool-and-composed-while-being-a-jerk Garnett absolutely lost it on the play above, chucki...


How To Cook For Yourself Every Day, And Stock Your Kitchen Like A Pro
I love Sundays, but not the way I used to. Time was, it was a day for sleeping in, going to brunch, watching sports, ordering a pizza, dicking around. But here's the new itinerary: Wake up early, go to the farmer's market, buy a boatload of awesome produce (produce being a thing I now consider awe...

Football Player Gets His Soul Juked Out Of Him
This is like if someone got simultaneously crossed up and posterized during a basketball game. You might want to look away if you have issues with second-hand shame:...

Draymond Green And Steph Curry's Family Get Into It With Seahawks Fans
Warriors superstar Steph Curry is a big Carolina Panthers fan, and he was in attendance for the team's road playoff loss to Seattle. At some point, things got a little testy with the home fans, and it was Curry's wife, mother, and teammate Draymond Green in the thick of things....

My God, My God, The Hawks Are A Fucking Juggernaut
The Atlanta Hawks led the Washington Wizards 87-77 after the third quarter yesterday, which isn't nothing as leads go, but, in its broad outline the game still had the feel of one whose outcome could go either way. The Hawks looked sharper, sure, but the Wizards had won the second quarter and got...

The NFL's Rules Are Dumb
The thing we have to establish to be able to talk about this with the same frame of reference is that Dez Bryant didn't catch that football. Oh sure, maybe he had the ball firmly in his grasp, maybe he was confident enough in his possession to turn and lunge for the end zone, wheeling his feet under...

Matt Cooke Cross-Checks Shea Weber In The Nose, Pays For It
Whether Matt Cooke was frustrated with a two-goal deficit or just in a mood to instigate, he cross-checked Shea Weber in the third period of Saturday night's Predators-Wild game. His stick hit Weber right in the nose, and the Predators captain proceeded to beat the fuck out of Cooke....

A Priceless Photo Of Chris Christie Thinking Dez Bryant Made That Catch
Though FOX didn't give us the Chris Christie reaction shots we desired for the Cowboys-Packers game, stringer Andy Manis snapped a photo for NJ.com of Jerry Jones's suite at Lambeau Field, reportedly as Dez Bryant made his fourth-down catch (that was overturned after review). Christie, in the upper-...

Dez Bryant's Overturned Catch Ruined Our Fun
Cowboys-Packers provided what we want in playoff football. We got to watch two talented (though injured) quarterbacks mess around in a high-energy atmosphere. Then, a review had to screw up our perfect experience....

Duke Lost!
Hey, Duke men's basketball lost its first game of the season today. Fuck 'em!...

T.J. Lang's Block On Nick Hayden Sparks Cowboys-Packers Shove-Fest
Green Bay offensive lineman T.J. Lang shoved Dallas defensive tackle Nick Hayden to the ground as officials blew their whistle on a Davante Adams catch, and that enough to start a big pushing match between some Packers and Cowboys....

Tony Romo Holds His Butt
Tony Romo's on the ground, it's cold, and his butt hurts. Let him feel sorry for himself for a second. Fortunately for the Cowboys, Romo's butt wasn't seriously injured....

Concussions Sure Are Frustrating
Never mind that Rolando McClain had "concussion-like symptoms" last week, and—judging by his exit from today's game with a head injury—probably shouldn't have touched the field against the Packers today. Ed Werder wants you to know how frustrating it is for the Cowboys' training staff....

The Patriots Annoyed John Harbaugh By Having Fun With Eligible Receivers
The Patriots needed creativity to beat the Ravens last night. Julian Edelman showed he could throw a deep ball better than Tom Brady on a trick-play touchdown bomb to Danny Amendola, but New England also ran a few plays that mixed up eligible receivers. Those formations were totally legal, but Balti...
