Except that it’s really not a sports story anymore. Jenner’s win was almost 40 years ago. He won on July 30, 1976. The connection to most people today has to be the tv show. I believe Jenner’s most current connection to sports is either the re-runs of Battle of the Network Stars on ESPN Classic or the pro athletes who…

A rich and well-connected person hardly has to face the same struggles as the 99.9999 percent of the transgendered community. He doesn’t have to worry about keeping his identity a secret to stay employed, paying the medical costs, or even worry about the bills. It may have been a courageous PERSONAL decision, but that…

Great. Another reality show about people from Texas with brain damage.

Jon Stewart: “Tommy...you cheating fucker.”

It was the summer of ‘58 /I stood by the opening gate / Warm June sun on my face / The Red Sox were last to integrate

Ironic, non-boxer and writer Drew Magary criticized Mayweather as a boxer today but I guess he’s qualified to do that.

Floyd Mayweather is a lot of terrible things, and because of that, he will never get respect for being a master boxer. This post, whatever it is, is proof of that, as now we have people who clearly know very little about boxing are now determining what makes someone a coward in the ring. He fights…

They thought Yordano Ventura was pitching tonight.

Still a distant second place.

Lawrence Phillips is a detestable human being, but Tom Osborne covered more crimes than Jerry Orbach. http://www.si.com/vault/1995/09/…

My personal favorite Coach Kism was when he ripped on the Atlantic 10 for not going through the "meat grinder" of the ACC when the A10 got 6 teams or whatever into the tournament, and then his team lost to a 14 seed in the first round. That's sweet, sweet karmic justice for that loud mouth rat.

The strike in '87 ended the NFLPA as a union of any substance whatsoever. The league brought in scabs, the fans still showed up because there is nothing left of their misbegotten lives if they can't cheer for their favorite laundry, the players caved and started crossing the picket lines and that was it. The best…

Penn State's students continue to embarass themselves, Deadspin posts articles to that effect often. All universities have student bodies that raise huge amounts of money for charities, found charities, solve the world's problems, etc. That's not an achievement, that's what the youth of the world is expected to do…

"Fuck that thug Richard Sherman. All he does is talk trash. He has no class." - Boston sports fans

I didn't really care who wins on Sunday, but now I don't think I've ever wanted anything more than for Lynch to score 6 touchdowns, grab his crotch after every one, win the MVP, receive the trophy from Goodell and get interviewed on the podium after. IF THERE'S A JUST GOD THIS WILL HAPPEN.

Bailiff: Boy, it's really coming down out there. Anyone know where I can find a shovel around here?

This was awesome.

Well the journalists above were convinced enough to dismiss the idea based on a sample size of 0 games.

Interviewer: Rex, what appealed to you about the Buffalo job?

cue the hatred and contention that ray rice is the worst human being to ever walk the earth, as opposed to a person who just made a terrible mistake. cue the awful victim blaming where people call janay "brainwashed" or a "gold digger", or talk about how dumb she is. Cause you know, there's absolutely zero possibility…
