Report: Geno Smith Has A Torn ACL
Geno Smith spent the first six weeks of the season sitting on the bench, watching Ryan Fitzpatrick and the rest of Jets play gross football. He finally got the starting nod against the Ravens on Sunday, and made it through four series before leaving the game with a knee injury. After the game, the i...

Now she’s dedicated her most recent column at ...
This Soccer Highlight Is The Absolute Worst Soccer Highlight
The New York Red Bulls’ reserve team faced off against the Swope Park Rangers in something called the USL Cup Final last night. The Rangers, however, were justifiably forced to forfeit before the 90 minutes were up when everyone in the stadium agreed that there would be no more soccering that night ...
Eli Manning Denies Calling "Trump" Audible
In the second quarter of the Giants’ 17-10 win over the Rams in London, on-field mics caught Eli Manning calling for an audible at the line of scrimmage. It sure as hell sounded like, “Trump Trump, Trump Trump.”...

God Bless Bullpen Catchers
Comcast SportsNet Chicago aired lots of compelling footage last night of Cubs players, staff, and fans celebrating their first National League pennant in 71 years, but its most delightful—if that is the right word for it—moment is when bullpen catcher Chad Noble got wet and sticky in his hot dog (Co...
How 90-Year-Old Cubs Fan Plans To Celebrate: "I'll Probably Have A Jägermeister"
90-year-old Cubs fan Dorothy Farrell was a media favorite during the NLCS, and now she’s watched her team win its first N.L. pennant since she was 19 years old. She plans to celebrate exactly the same way every other Cubs supporter will....
Here Are All The Times The NFL Got Josh Brown Records From The Sheriff's Office
Once again, the NFL has insisted that its inability to comprehend the repeated abuse suffered by a woman—Molly Brown, in this case, the ex-wife of New York Giants kicker Josh Brown—wasn’t due to its own incompetence. After blaming the victim a few months ago, NFL leaders decided this time around to ...

Josh Brown Placed On Commissioner's Exempt List [Updates]
The NFL is suddenly very concerned about Giants kicker Josh Brown, now that the sheriff’s office in King County, Wash. has released documents in which Brown described in his own words how he abused his wife, Molly. The league was less concerned a month ago, when it suspended Brown one game despite t...
I'd Watch Javier Baez Read A Book
I watched most of Game 5 of the NLCS in a noisy bar, but it wasn’t the same experience I usually have while watching a game in public. Instead of glancing at the screen every now and then just to check the score while drinking and chatting, I found myself much more concerned with what was happening ...
The Cubs Have To Win A Baseball Game
I read this the other day, a throwaway line that made me do a double take: The Cubs have never won an NLCS. Well, sure they haven’t. League championship series have only been around since 1969, and the Cubs haven’t been to a World Series since 1945. It’s a useless, obvious bit of trivia—barely a fac...
Wikileaks: Clinton Campaign Considered Having Her Make A "Yo Mama" Joke
Here’s a good one from the Clinton email leaks. Before a February campaign event in Birmingham, Al., a Hillary Clinton campaign staffer wrote a “Yo mama” joke into the speech, one which was eventually cut....
Giants Sign Kicker Robbie Gould
Josh Brown will not travel with the New York Giants to London for their game against the Rams this weekend. In a statement released today, the team said that they “remain supportive of Josh and his efforts,” but would “revisit” his case after the London game. His contract situation is unclear at the...
Here's Bobby Valentine Lovingly Wiping Crumbs Off Tommy Lasorda's Mouth
Hall of Fame manager Tommy Lasorda recently got out of the hospital in time to attend Game 3 of the NLCS. He’s at Game 5 tonight, sitting next to Bobby Valentine, who was nice enough to assist him with a stray bit of food....
The NFL Always Had Access To The Josh Brown Documents<em></em>
Even before yesterday’s release of documents by the sheriff’s office in King County, Wash. in which New York Giants kicker Josh Brown admits in his own words that he abused his then-wife Molly, there was very similar evidence in his divorce file—a publicly available document that anyone could get. A...

Rick Pitino Denies Responsibility For Louisville Prostitution Scandal, Once Again Invokes 9/11
Last year, a book written by a self-described madam detailed allegations that the Louisville basketball program provided strippers for team parties within the dorms, and that some of the strippers were paid to have sex with athletes, as a means of attracting recruits. Former graduate assistant Andre...
Cleveland Dunked On Jose Bautista
Cleveland rookie pitcher Ryan Merritt was making just the second start of his career yesterday when manager Terry Francona sent him to the mound to face the Blue Jays in Game 5 of the ALCS.
