I hope they go undefeated and score 1,000 points per game. I hope they melt the arenas in which they play because they make the ball move so beautifully, and so quickly, that the air becomes super-heated with the vigorous masturbation of the assembled angelic hosts of heaven. I hope Kevin Durant, Steph Curry, Klay…

Please stop saying “PKs.” They are called penalties. Fans in every other country on earth call them penalties. Loudmouth USMNT shills on terrible US broadcasts call them PKs. There is no need to nickname them — it certainly won’t help broaden the US audience. It’s a dreadful American affectation that needs to die a…

I don’t see how a sports website discussing a rare thing that happened in a 15-inning game constitutes a slow news day.

Counterpoint: Lebron shot 0-4 when the game was tied 89-89 with 1 minute left in the game. Without kyrie Irving and Ray allen’s 3 Lebron is 1-6* in finals

Penalty shootouts really are just kabuki theater.

Imagine half of Leicester Cities fans and boards thought it would be a good idea to leave the FA because they didn’t like the influence other teams had on their ability to play football. Lets call it Foxit. But shockingly, leaving the FA means they are no longer in the Premier League and the FA CUp. They are no longer…

Brexit is a dance where you promise the room that if they vote to do it, it’ll be awesome and then they do... and you switch off the light, turn down the music and everyone goes, “Uh, where are we and what’s going on?”

Don’t be fooled by these blocks that he got.

Orlando City isn’t wrong though. If there’s one league that tests stamina more than any other, it’s gotta be MLS. 1,000+ mile trips on a regular basis, sweltering summer heat in places like Orlando and Dallas, lots of tackles and hard challenges, some turf fields and a lot of young players that are fast as fuck. If…

He means all the old timers that can’t hack in the big leagues go there for a well paid victory lap, but you knew that already. The best team in MLS would get relegated instantly from any top league in Europe.

I don’t know’s on second and I don’t care is in short right field.

I grew up in Jeffersonville, IN, right across the river from Louisville, KY. My dad got to see the champ a few times, but what always stood out to him was the gold medal incident. Like much of Ali’s life, the story is disputed, but fuck it, I want to believe it was true.

Thank you Dave. Here’s James and Sonya then and now, and Cherie Steinbacher then and now. I’m so grateful that they, along with Maureen, were able to be there and meet fans of the film.

I just created an account to tell you how fucking dumb this argument is. Game 1 of the 2015 finals went to overtime WITH Irving. You do not get addition by subtraction when JR Smith and Delly are your 2nd and 3rd scoring options. This is a dumb argument and you should feel bad for saying it.

One thing I haven’t seen anyone talk about is the physicality with which OKC is covering Curry. They haven’t been letting him run free around those screens like usual, which oddly enough I don’t think I’ve seen anyone else even try to do.

...and hopefully United will provide them with a shovel to dig up Ricardo Carvahlo.

Warning: the following take is hot; very hot.

Serious question, other thank the fact he is a star, how is that not a flagrant 2?

I love that today’s Deadspin theme is ‘boardgames’. Soccer goalie and Rondo both loving Connect Four, Nigerians killing Scrabble, and Phil Mickelson sucking at Monopoly.
