Last year there was a Tim Brando/Greg Jennings pairing for a game, and I honestly didn’t think it could get any worse than that. But the booth for this game was somehow even worse than the game on the field. It sounded like a bunch of local high school announcers. Then McAfee didn’t even bother to learn half the…

I didn’t think that anyone actually believed that Josh Gordon’s only issue was with using pot. 

I live in Nebraska and ever since I came into the office this morning, it’s all anyone has been able to talk about for 2.5 hours, no joke. The university and Herbie Husker are serious business, even though only maybe 1 person in here is a UNL grad. 

That primetime game (can’t remember if it was Sunday night or Monday night) back in 2015 when the Broncos blew the doors off the Packers should have been the end. It was pretty clear from that moment that McCarthy wasn’t the right guy to win another championship.

Sports media, especially of the baseball and football variety, puts so much stock into “respect” and “legacy”, because the majority of them are former athletes/coaches and have massive egos themselves that they’re always trying to take care of. To them, if you win a Super Bowl for a team, that team owes you undying…

The Browns have like 4 or 5 front office people from Green Bay. Seems like a pretty obvious landing spot for him next season.

>So I took down the post. And in doing so, underestimated the desperation of Deadspin to run a colonoscopy camera up Barstool’s collective ass in search of a six month old post hoping to find some shred of misogyny

I’m pretty sure this was always meant as a preseason-only rule. Sort of like when the NBA instituted the rule where an offensive player can’t touch the basketball after it goes through the rim. You almost never see it actually called in the regular season. They’re just trying to build habits in players when the games…

The threatening his ex part of the story is newsworthy, but the story itself and how it’s been covered has been incredibly toxic, and I’m not surprised that Deadspin wants no part in it. The way it’s been reported and the reaction on social media has entirely been used to either beat transgender people over the head,…

My friends in Wisconsin think Candidate 1A is Lincoln Riley, although no one can actually give a reason why he’d leave Oklahoma.

A 54 yarder isn’t really out of the question during an indoor game for a professional kicker. Lutz has made a few of those in his career. But I guess kicking a FG could still be considered “running up the score” to some people? Idk what the most “sportsmanlike” call is in that situation. A draw play that results in a…

The 1998 Vikings were probably one of the most talented teams I’ve seen in my life and went 15-1, until they lost to the Falcons in the NFC Championship. Their one regular season loss was to the mediocre 8-8 Bucs.

It takes a lot of racism for any 50 year old white person to believe it’s ever okay to use that word in normal conversation.

I can’t wait to watch a 6'7 280 lb-er play guard in the NBA, and then hear all the hot takes about “BuT hE’d NeVeR sUrViVe In ThE eIgHtIeS!!

Uhhh... ever heard of Michael Jordan? Or is a prerequisite for being part of the genre that you never had any good teammates?

Philadelphia will never put him in the G League, because then he’s straight Anthony Bennett status. As long as he’s on the roster and playing (no matter how awful), he still has the “former #1 overall” mystique. And maybe at the deadline, the Nets or Kings will be willing to take a flyer on him and see if they can…

The spread on Rams/Packers was 9.5. Unless the Rams went for 2 after the Gurley TD, GB still would have covered.

I own a HHCD jersey and am a Packers fan, but I don’t necessarily hate this. GB wasn’t going to sign him long term when his contract was up after this year. They signed too many FAs this year to be awarded a compensatory selection for him when he walked. GB’s playoff chances this year are... not great, and they’re…

Yeah, in that same bit, the E!TV host even says “The movie was a box office flop because of its insensitive portrayal of people with disabilities” or something like that. The character was funny because it was so obviously offensive, but no one had the sense to pull the plug on such an offensive idea.

Probably because Crosby went out there and was trying to make the smart play by kicking in the FG, but he failed. Ty went out and made the wrong play. If Crosby had lined up for a field goal and then snatched the ball from the holder to try to run it himself, he would have gotten it even worse than Ty. If Ty had…
