“Max Holloway supplanted Aldo as the new featherweight king, becoming perhaps the most likable UFC champion on the roster.”

The article is great and getting the love it deserves, but wow the illustration up top is amazing as well

In addition to the usual “she’s too much like a man” BS, I feel like the PED bust has hung over her head much more than it does for any guy busted. At this point I can’t even begin to recall all the men who have been suspended, but with the women, there’s a certain purity expected.

Worked for LeGarrette Blount just fine.

The Bruins, on the other hand....

“Instead, a year later, the average number of flags per team jumped by over half, and has only increased from there.”

LeBron killed it opening night vs. the Celts. He’ll be fine.

Anquan Boldin was in the meetings and he retired (though now seeking to come out of retirement).
