Dimitri Payet Is Still An Animal
This isn’t even a dedicated Dimitri Payet individual highlight video and yet it’s still composed almost entirely of West Ham’s superstud going all best mode all over Blackburn in the FA Cup this weekend. And that’s because any time the Hammers do something cool, you can bet Payet will be at the cent...

There is a lot of debate in media circles over the use, and over-use, of unnamed sources—when it’s appropriate to grant anonymity, how it affects a story’s credibility, and how best to weigh access with accountability.

The Best Track On Kanye West's <i>The Life Of Pablo </i>Is Also, Somehow, The Worst
What the world needs now is a great Kanye West song: no less and please, God, no more. Enough with the delays, the obfuscations, the feuds, the amusing tantrums misidentified as unhinged rants, the legit unmisidentifiable social-media disasters. It’s exhausting. He’s exhausting. We’re exhausted. To ...

DeMarcus Cousins Has The Quote Of All-Star Weekend
DeMarcus Cousins has an ugly game. He’s a pouting tornado of elbows and snarls, who tramples over opponents instead of going over or around them. He looks so mad on the court, so the second-time all-star is no doubt enjoying his time up in Toronto away from the Sacramento Kings Circus....

The NBA Referee’s Association dropped a pretty good video this morning, featuring a bunch of refs reading mean tweets about them sent to the @OfficialNBARefs account.
