Texans gather at Deshaun Watson restaurant opening, because of course they do
It’s likely that it won’t become that much of a story, due to the fact that the Houston Texans suck, or that the NFL will almost certainly want it to go away, and that not much will come of it because of that. But the fact that multiple Texans attended a restaurant opening in Houston because Deshaun...
Liverpool Aren't Making This Easy
It was all good just a month ago. In the run-up to Liverpool’s marquee match-up against Manchester City on January 4, the focus wasn’t on staving off its primary challenger, but rather on how much they could distance themselves from Pep Guardiola’s side. Even with a close away loss, Liverpool still ...
The Most Badass Goals Are Roberto Firmino's No-Look Goals
Liverpool’s Brazilian striker Roberto Firmino may be the hardest working center forward in the game, but don’t get it twisted: he still manages to couple his indefatigable off-ball work with more than a little of that old samba flair.

West Ham And Tottenham Trade Back-To-Back Bangers
Early-season basement dwellers West Ham showed some promise and held their own in a 1-1 draw against Tottenham today, but the point they won is mostly thanks to a bit of magic from Pedro Obiang.

Andy Carroll Is Very Good At What He Does, If Not Much Else
It’s sort of a shame that the story of Andy Carroll’s sporting career will almost certainly be the arc of his failures.

West Ham Set To Give David Moyes Another Chance To Fail
West Ham, despite having no reason to, have sucked for the better part of a year now. Because of this, today they’ve finally decided to fire manager Slaven Bilić. Probably a smart move.

Chicharito Gives West Ham Both A Striker And A New Fanbase
Javier Hernández is abnormally famous for a man of his talents.

He is by far the m...
