A shocking crime from great and peaceful nation of Canada: Some as-of-yet unidentified thief reportedly broke into the Vancouver Whitecaps’ training facility Monday night and absconded with a bunch of the players’ boots. Most likely inspired by the surrounding culture, the team’s manager has propose...
Fans Are Trolling A Gag "LaRoche Family Recovery Fund"
I can’t get enough of this Drake LaRoche thing. It’s the best, dumbest, most baseball controversy I can imagine. Adam Eaton saying of a 14-year-old boy that “we lost a leader?” Love it. Unnamed White Sox players finally emerging to say actually, it kind of sucks to have a teen in our workplace every...
It Looks Like A Bunch Of White Sox Players Had A Problem With Adam LaRoche's Teen Son
The continuing controversy over Adam LaRoche retiring because the White Sox wouldn’t let his teen son Drake hang out in the clubhouse every day shouldn’t still be this funny, and yet, here we find ourselves this morning, with Adam Eaton saying things like this....
Adam LaRoche Says White Sox Asked Him To Stop Bringing His Son To The Clubhouse Altogether
Adam LaRoche has released a statement about his 14-year-old son Drake, his decision to walk away from the White Sox, team vice president Kenny Williams, family, baseball, character, morals, God, brands, and a whole bunch of other stuff....
Chris Sale Is Really Mad That The White Sox Won't Let A Kid Hang Out In The Clubhouse All Day
Starting pitcher Chris Sale is a valued player in good standing with the White Sox, so he’s using his position to call out the team’s handling of Adam LaRoche and his 14-year-old son, Drake. This morning, Sale had both LaRoches’ jerseys hanging in his locker, and accused White Sox vice president Ken...
Who Had A Problem With Adam LaRoche's Kid?
Adam LaRoche and his 14-year-old son Drake aren’t with the White Sox anymore; the first baseman walked away from the team on Tuesday after Kenny Williams asked him to reduce Drake’s time around the clubhouse. This unique MLB controversy gets more confusing, however. Today, reports claim that White S...
The Cubs And White Sox Aren't Happy About Chicago's Smokeless Tobacco Ban In Stadiums
Yesterday, Chicago’s city council passed an ordinance banning all forms of smokeless tobacco from the city’s sports stadiums. That means no dip, no chaw, no snus, all informally part of baseball culture as long as there has been a sport where men sit around for three hours every day. And for the pla...
Adam LaRoche Retired Because The White Sox Wouldn't Let His Kid Hang Out In The Clubhouse Every Day
On Tuesday, Chicago White Sox first baseman Adam LaRoche announced, much to the relief of White Sox fans, that he would retire from baseball. It now appears that his decision was related less to his inability to hit at a major league level or to injuries than to his 14-year-old son, Drake. According...
Roddy White Says Kyle Shanahan Forced Him Out Of Atlanta
Roddy White’s release by the Falcons last week was not a huge surprise; it’s hard to justify a 34-year-old third WR with a $6 million-plus cap hit. But White’s an interesting case, because he didn’t precisely demonstrate that he can’t play anymore. Instead, he was simply phased out of the gameplan b...
It's Been A Bad Week For Guys You Would Have Killed To Have On Your Fantasy Team In 2010
On Wednesday, the Falcons cut Roddy White. On Thursday, the Texans released Arian Foster. Today, the Colts told Andre Johnson that he’s gone. These are depressing roster moves, and not so much because of how great these players once were—but because these are indisputably smart and correct decisions...
This Pass From Isaiah Whitehead Is Extremely Good And Cool
Okay, so it’s not as good as Isaiah Thomas’s dime, which I still can’t wrap my head around, but this is still pretty cool. ...
Steph Curry Bails Draymond Green, And The Warriors, Out
The 1995-96 Chicago Bulls’ 72 wins are so impressive because it is very easy for the nightly grind of the NBA to trip teams up. Sure, injuries can easily cause losses, but so can scheduling quirks, off nights, opposing stars going off, or a million other things....

This Hassan Whiteside One-Handed Catch Is The Best Block Of The Year
Ole Blancoté went and had himself a perfect Hassan Whiteside game last night; 10 points, 10 boards, and 10 blocks, including this beauty. He came off the bench, but played crucial minutes down the stretch as Miami beat Charlotte. ...
José Aldo Should Obviously Get An Immediate Rematch With Conor McGregor
A month and a half after getting flatlined by Conor McGregor with the first punch landed in the biggest fight of the year, former UFC featherweight titleholder José Aldo broke his silence last week, demanding that his next fight be for the featherweight strap and/or a rematch against McGregor. It’s ...
Macklemore's Problem Is That Macklemore Is Bad
Last night, white rapping man Macklemore released a song called “White Privilege II.” The song, which is accompanied by a website, is earnest and ostensibly aims to acknowledge and condemn the very white privilege from which Macklemore profits. It is a bad song. To examine how we got to this point, ...
Just Three European NBA Players, Making Jokes And Burning Hassan Whiteside
Jazz center and large Frenchman Rudy Gobert sent a semi-hot, cryptic tweet two days ago:...
Hassan Whiteside On His Monster Triple-Double: "Ain't Nobody Doing It With Blocks"
The Heat hit a bump in the road lately, stumbling to three straight losses on a long West Coast road trip.

The Worst Man On Facebook Ruined <i>Star Wars</i>
Penn Holderness, professional, uh, person who makes his family help him ruin pop music tracks on YouTube, is bad. His videos are bad. His hair is bad. “All About That Baste” is the absolute worst thing I have ever seen in my life. Everything about him is bad. Bad bad bad. Also, he (allegedly) big-ti...
