Welington Castillo Taken To Hospital After Getting Hit In The Dick And Balls
Orioles catcher Welington Castillo’s game against the Blue Jays began and ended in the first inning. That’s because Toronto catcher Miguel Montero inadvertently created a little backstop-on-backstop violence with a foul tip that hit Castillo right where he least wanted to be hit....
Chargers Twerk Girl Is Now Free Agent Twerk Girl
The San Diego Chargers are no more. The team plays its first game since 1960 as the Los Angeles Chargers tonight, and they will be down at least one fan when they step onto the field in Denver: Chargers Twerk Girl....
Hello, Kareem Hunt
The Patriots got shoved into a trash compactor last night, and watching it felt wonderful. Alex Smith’s passable and shocking Aaron Rodgers impression may have been the most impressive part of the Chiefs’ performance, but the part that was the most fun to watch was rookie running back Kareem Hunt ma...
Patriots Eat Shit In Front Of God And Everyone
At the end of the third quarter tonight, the Patriots led the Chiefs by a score of 27-21. They proceeded to roll over and die. They gave up 21 points in the fourth, letting Kansas City run away with a 42-27 victory for the worst beating New England’s endured in recent memory....

NFL Concludes Useless Probe Into Whether Tom Brady Had Concussions
In May, supermodel Gisele Bündchen said in an interview that her husband, Patriots quarterback Tom Brady, “does have concussions.” This spurred a joint investigation by the NFL and NFLPA, which has unsurprisingly come to the conclusion that Tom Brady is just fine....
Dolphins-Bucs Game May Have To Be Moved To Avoid Category 5 Hurricane Irma
Hurricane Irma was upgraded this morning to a category 5 storm, the most intense on the Saffir-Simpson Scale, meaning it has maximum sustained winds greater than 157 mph. There is, as always, a lot of uncertainty in its long-term forecast—but as of now, many models have it headed right for South Flo...
Okay, Now NFL Teams Are Just Flaunting It
The Buffalo Bills today signed Joe Webb as a backup quarterback. You may remember Joe Webb from when he last threw a pass in a regular season NFL game, which was in friggin’ 2011. Webb has made more appearances as a wide receiver (1) than as a quarterback (0) in the years since....
Just Like That, Brock Osweiler Is Back With The Broncos

Denver NFL Beat Guy Caught On Twitter Dictating The Flow Of Information
Mike Klis of 9News tweeted a little while ago that the Broncos are expected to kick the tires on bad NFL quarterback and former salary dump Brock Osweiler. What he tweeted next—and immediately deleted—sure as hell looked like instructions to stiff-arm his competition:...
Report: Browns Give Up On Brock Osweiler Experiment
At the beginning of the NFL offseason, the Cleveland Browns acquired a second-round pick from the Texans in exchange for taking on bad QB Brock Osweiler and his $16 million salary. Cleveland drafted Notre Dame QB DeShone Kizer in the second round of the NFL Draft, although the thinking was that they...
Slavery-Supporting Nation's Propaganda Arm Buys Kylian Mbappé In Super Shady Transfer
Qatar is a loathsome county built on corruption, a labor system that closely resembles slavery, and the support of the murder of innocent people through the financial backing of terrorists. Qatar is also the owner of French club Paris Saint-Germain, the country’s luxurious and extravagantly gilded s...
Keon Broxton Saved The Game With This Catch
The Brewers salvaged a series split with the Cardinals, and crawled back to within three games of a wild card spot, and they have Keon Broxton to thank. The outfielder made a leaping catch at the wall in dead center to save what might’ve been a go-ahead two-run home run and seal a 6-5 win....
Four Days In The Squall Of A Superfight<em></em>
LAS VEGAS, Nev.—“Man, I’m usually in a suit, but it’s too fucking hot today,” a scalper told me a few hours before the big fight. It truly was too fucking hot. A police dog had to wear booties to protect his feet. This particular scalper was forced halfway inside, working the buffer area between the...
Curling Tries Out Its Version Of The Three-Point Line
One of basketball’s prevailing properties has been its ability to adapt. At moments in its history when the game began to grow stale, from the shot clock to the three-point line and even illegal zone defense, rules changed to incentivize scoring as well as provide an opportunity to win through diffe...
This Spikeball Rally Is A Work Of Art
It’s still summer, at least for a few precious weeks more, which means it’s still the perfect time to go play spikeball in a park near you.
