What the hell is a Logan Paul?
I haven’t paid attention to boxing since I was a kid, which pretty much makes me like 95 percent of the rest of the world. Ever since Redman and Method Man led Roy Jones Jr., my favorite boxer, to the ring, I couldn’t really see what more the sport could offer. That didn’t stop my heart from sinking...

It would’ve made for great racing, and in fact it did, until the...

Please Stop Praising The Idiot Football Men For Dressing Poorly In Cold Weather<em></em>

It Is Brutally Hot In Jacksonville
The Jaguars’ home opener is a rematch of the AFC Championship, and the kickoff temperature for that one was a balmy 48 degrees. But that was at Foxboro. This is Jacksonville, a.k.a. Satan’s armpit, and temperature at kickoff is 97 degrees—with the humidity making it feel more like 107. It is the hot...
