Oh Hell Yeah, This Song From Jamie XX, Young Thug, And Popcaan Rules
Alert, alert! This is a Good Vibes Alert from the Good Vibes Alert Network: Put this song, “I Know (There’s Gonna Be Good Times),” a collaboration from Jamie XX, Young Thug, and Popcaan on the nearest loudspeaker immediately. Turn the volume all the way up. Wave your arms, even if it’s in a weird wa...
Manchester Derby Is Already 1-1 And Manic
The Manchester Derby lit up early for the visiting side as Sergio Agüero deposited a dish from David Silva past David de Gea to give City a 1-0 lead. The entire play set up is nice-looking soccer (Milner’s pretty awesome here), but you have to ask what Manchester United’s defenders were doing here...
Professional Soccer Team Somehow Fails To Score On 5 vs. 1
Down 0-1 in stoppage time yesterday in a Swiss Super League match against Young Boys, FC Vaduz sent nearly everybody forward in attack. When that attacked was repelled, it left Vaduz facing what you see in the thumbnail above: an unprecedented five on one for Young Boys. But with a wealth of profita...
Young Thug Is Making Money Fun Again
After seeing the new video for Young Thug's "Check," I'm beginning to think that he is literally in love with money. I've never seen someone as enamored with the look and feel of dollar bills as he is. Just watch the video and look how hard it is for him to keep his hands away from the omnipresent s...
Tim Howard Kinda Just Chills With His Hands Down, Watches Goal Go In
I know. I know. It was a great goal from Dynamo Kiev's Andriy Yarmolenko. Someone should've, could've stepped to the ball, at some point. Tim Howard probably couldn't have gotten to it anyway. I know. That's all out of the way....
Joe Young Hits Buzzer-Beater To Knock Off Utah
Pac-12 Player of the Year Joe Young hit a long-range three-pointer with one second remaining to lead his Oregon Ducks to a 67-64 win over 17th-ranked Utah in the Pac-12 tournament semi-finals....
In The 1930s, Every Basketball Player Shot Like J.R. Smith
Today, the Illinois High School Association uploaded this here YouTube video of footage from the Illinois state basketball tournaments. Kinda cool. Now the wrinkle: the footage is from the Great Depression....
Robert Flores To Nick Young: There's A 70% Chance You'll Miss
After Robert Flores ethered his girlfriend Iggy Azalea on SportsCenter, Nick Young should've just logged off. Instead, he went after Flores on Twitter, and even threatened—insofar as a Twitter-delivered threat from an NBA player to an ESPN personality can be considered a threat—to fight Flores....
Rich Gang Might Be Breaking Up, But It's Fine
Moment of silence, please. Last week, rapper Rich Homie Quan went on Atlanta's Hot 107.9 and said he was taking a break from Rich Gang, his celebrated duo with Young Thug. (As you'll recall, their Tha Tour Part 1 was one of the best mixtapes of 2014.) Which means it's probably the beginning of the e...
Nick Young Is Clapping Back At Robert Flores For Ethering Iggy Azalea
As Jigga's Law states, for every "Ether" there is an equal and opposite "Super Ugly" as the offended party seeks to redress their injuries in diss form. And while Iggy Azalea herself has henceforth been quiet about the smackdown ESPN's Robert Flores laid on her today, her boyfriend Nick Young has ...
Kevin Garnett Is Going Back To Minnesota, And That's Cool
The NBA trade deadline has led to a few exciting trades, but none have been more fun than the one that will send Kevin Garnett back to the Timberwolves....
Openly Gay WWE Wrestler Blasts Company For Abu Dhabi Shows
Today marks the first of three WWE house shows in Abu Dhabi, and Darren Young is very notably not among the wrestlers making the trip. Young (real name Fred Rosser) came out as gay in 2013, and the United Arab Emirates doesn't have the best human-rights record. WWE says it left Young behind for his ...
Nick Young's Near-Death Dolphin Tale Sounds A Lot Like A Kevin Hart Joke
On Tuesday, Lakers guard Nick Young told a harrowing story about a dolphin trying to kill him, but there's something odd about his tale: Young's near-death dolphin experience is quite similar to an old Kevin Hart joke....
The Lakers Had Fun With Kobe Bryant Sitting Out
The Lakers ran the NBA-best Warriors out of the Staples Center, winning 115-105 even after taking their foot off the gas in the fourth, and they did it all without Kobe Bryant. And everyone not named Kobe Bryant seemed pretty darn happy about it....
Steve Young Compares Peyton Manning To Obama, Or Something
I think Steve Young is trying to say that for Denver to beat Cincinnati tonight Peyton Manning needs to play well—which, duh—but did he need to use some garbled metaphor about Manning, Obama, and dictatorship to do it? Or is he trying to sneak some political commentary about Obama—go search Twitter ...
Kobe: "These Motherfuckers Ain't Doing Shit For Me" (VIDEO UPDATE)
The 6-16 Lakers are garbage and will likely continue to be garbage, but Kobe Bryant refuses to give up. His latest motivational tactic: Emotionally dismantling his teammates during practice. Getting yelled at by a champion will make you a champion, maybe....
Which NBA Team Screws Up Its Timeouts The Most?
How much do you trust your team's coach to set up a play during a timeout? Probably more than you should....
Why The Lakers' Brand Of Suck Matters
That Nick Young's return to the lineup would coincide with the Lakers' ascent from gonzo terribleness to bland mediocrity fits, really. Both because at every stop in his NBA career Nick Young has done whatever would annoy me the most, but also because "Swaggy P" is the basketball embodiment of a tw...
Nick Young And Jordan Hill Briefly Make Being A Laker Seem Fun
Outside of the Philadelphia 76ers, there is no more depressing (although we find them more darkly hilarious) team in the NBA than the Los Angeles Lakers. That might be changing with the return of Nick Young, though, who has helped the Lakers to two straight wins after missing the team's 1-9 start du...
