Dmitry Orlov Flipped Matt Duchene
It is not often we start the morning blog march with a hip check. But, as T.J. Oshie mused of Dmitry Orlov’s hit that sent Matt Duchene tumbling helmet-over-skates, “that was one of the cooler hits that I’ve ever seen.”...
Old Man Rich Hill Pitched A Gem Tonight
The Chicago Cubs came into the NLCS fresh off a dominant regular season and a soul-crushing defeat of the San Francisco Giants. Since a Game 1 win, they haven’t scored a run. Clayton Kershaw shut them out in Game 2, which is understandable since he’s Clayton Kershaw, but a much more unlikely hero bl...
Everyone Got Called A Liar In Closing Arguments At The Derrick Rose Trial<em></em>
Lawyers for both sides in the Derrick Rose trial made their closing arguments today and the proceeding ended the way it began—with both sides telling vastly different stories about what happened in the early hours inside Jane Doe’s Los Angeles apartment back in 2013. ...
Todd Bowles Changes His Mind About Ryan Fitzpatrick
Last night, the Jets limped their way to a 28-3 loss to the Cardinals. Ryan Fitzpatrick started, went 16-for-31, and tossed a pick. He was replaced by a very mad Geno Smith, who ended his only drive by throwing a pick to Tyrann Mathieu. The Jets have a surplus of quarterbacks, but that doesn’t reall...
Trevor Bauer Considered Cauterizing His Gross Finger With A Soldering Iron
Trevor Bauer kicked off Halloween early last night when his disgusting diced up finger burst and dripped blood everywhere. He made it two outs into his start before he got yanked. According to a rather amusing (if not medically terrifying) report from Yahoo’s Jeff Passan, it could have been much wor...
Eric Decker Will Get His Shoulder Repaired As Soon As His Repaired Hip Heals<em></em><em></em>
The New York Jets placed wide receiver Eric Decker on injured reserve on Oct. 12 after he partially tore his rotator cuff in September. Decker will need surgery on his shoulder, but before he undergoes that procedure, he needs to repair his hip....
It Was A Nice Day In New York Today
Earlier today, local news station NY1 stumbled upon a “mysterious” statue of a mostly naked Hillary Clinton “depicted with horse hooves, and standing on what appeared to be printouts of emails. The statue also featured a Wall Street banker pressed against her left breast.” So of course, some shit we...
Derrick Rose's Accuser Questioned About Text Messages On Final Day Of Testimony
The Derrick Rose civil trial, in its last hours of testimony, was all about text messages on Tuesday. It began with Jane Doe answering questions about text messages her attorneys failed to submit to the defense earlier in the trial, continued with lawyers fighting over even more text messages, and e...
Cleveland Didn't Even Need A Starter Last Night<em></em>
Losing your starting pitcher two outs into a playoff game is supposed to be a nightmare for any manager, but all it meant for Terry Francona last night was that he got to put the game into the hands of a bullpen that has yet to fail him....
The Apparently Unstoppable Cleveland Indians Are A Win Away From The World Series
Despite starter Trevor Bauer springing a leak and spouting blood out of his finger in the first inning, the Cleveland Indians are now just one win from their first World Series in almost 20 years. Their bullpen went more or less the distance, and nobody pitched more than 1.2 innings as they locked d...
White Sox Fan Frank Kaminsky Owns The Cubs
Frank Kaminsky is a White Sox fan and he apparently isn’t one to celebrate his city’s other team’s success. To express his displeasure, he’s decided to wear a custom Steve Bartman jersey around the city. He rocked it on a rooftop last night, then wore it to the Bulls’ arena before the Hornets’ game ...
Trevor Bauer Exits Game 3 After His Finger Liquefies On The Mound<em></em>
Trevor Bauer tried to pitch in Game 3 of the ALCS this evening despite a fucked up finger. He made it 21 pitches and two outs into the game before the dam burst and he started bleeding everywhere. His hand looks like art from “Scary Stories To Tell In The Dark.”...
Trevor Bauer's Sliced Up Pinkie Is Extremely Gross
Trevor Bauer got his pinkie all Ginsu-ed up last week while he was fixing his drone, which caused him to miss his scheduled Game 2 start. He showed off his disgusting finger today before Game 3 of the ALCS, and it looks like a zombie bite. ...
What The Hell Is Jose Bautista On About?
The Toronto Blue Jays are down 2-0 in the ALCS after scoring just one run on 10 hits through 18 innings. If you were to ask any baseball fan with two eyes why that is, they’d tell you it’s because the Jays have been dominated by the Indians’ pitchers, particularly Andrew Miller and the rest of the ...
Odell Beckham Jr. Scores 75-Yard Touchdown, Performs Elaborate Touchdown Celebration
Odell Beckham Jr. has had an underwhelming start to the season and has been in a funk because of it, but the Giants receiver looked like his happy old self today after burning the Ravens for a 75-yard touchdown. He made the most out of his celebration....
Dave Roberts Was Wrong, And It Cost The Dodgers Game 1
It’s easy to blame the Los Angeles Dodgers’ Game 1 loss in the NLCS on Joe Blanton. With the game tied and the bases loaded in the eighth inning, Blanton gave Chicago Cubs pinch-hitter Miguel Montero the gift of a hanging slider on an 0-2 count, and the result was a grand slam. To make sure any hope...

Former Friend Of Jane Doe Repeatedly Calls Doe A Liar On The Stand
