Yesterday, Kevin Durant, a tall, expensive shoe who gets revenge on the haters by boasting about how you join them if you can’t beat them, got caught talking shit about his former Thunder coach and teammates on Twitter. It was mean of Durant to slag his old team by claiming he could have never won a championship with…
Welcome to Bad Quarterback Performance Of The Week, a recurring feature in which we celebrate the worst quarterback play the NFL has to offer.
In the last few seconds of Penn State’s 56-0 demolition of Georgia State on Saturday, the Panthers lined up to kick a field goal and at least get some points on the board. The 31-yard attempt went through the uprights, but Penn State coach James Franklin had called a timeout just before the ball was snapped. Rudely…
Two weeks into the season, the Kansas City Chiefs have the most entertaining offense in the league. They shoved 42 points right into the Patriots’ faces by using a read-option scheme, letting Alex Smith sling it, and deploying rookie running back Kareem Hunt like prime-era LaDainian Tomlinson. Yesterday was more of…
Thanks to the eagle eye of Twitter user @harrisonmc15, we get to enjoy these since-deleted tweets from Golden State Warriors star Kevin Durant:
The Champions Basketball League, an independent pro league that has repeatedly failed to start its inaugural season after taking hundreds of thousands of dollars of investment from regular fans, sued Ice Cube’s Big3 league for $250 million earlier this month. Today, the Big3 filed a counter defamation suit against the…
Here’s what the president was thinking about this morning:
Adrian Wojnarowski has another scoop related to an upcoming NBA board of governors meeting, during which potential rule changes will be voted on, and this one makes the league look pretty stupid:
ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski is reporting that a new NBA draft lottery system is one step closer to becoming a reality. According to Woj, the league’s competition committee has recommended a reform proposal that was created by the NBA, and the league’s board of governors will now vote on the proposal on Sept. 28.
Pro Football Focus has consistently ranked Lions guard T.J. Lang as one of the best offensive linemen in football. This doesn’t seem to have curried any favor with Lang, who went on 97.1 The Ticket yesterday and called the site “absolute garbage.”
During today’s White House press briefing, press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders was asked to comment on SportsCenter host Jemele Hill’s recent tweets about Donald Trump, in which she described the President and his policies as white supremacist. Hill was publicly reprimanded by ESPN for her tweets.
Japanese baseball star Shohei Otani, who is in the midst of a Ruthian season for the Hokkaido Nippon-Ham Fighters—the two-way stud had a 1.86 ERA and 174 strikeouts in 140 innings, to go along with 27 homers and a .322/.416/.588 triple slash in 2016—is reportedly ready to play ball in America. He’ll be doing so on the…
Kevin Durant earned himself a lot of haters last offseason when he left the Oklahoma City Thunder and joined the Golden State Warriors. Now he’s an NBA champion and a Finals MVP, so he’s definitely not still sore about all those mean things people said about him. He’s definitely not still mad about it. Absolutely not.…
Welcome to Bad Quarterback Performance Of The Week, a recurring feature in which we celebrate the worst quarterback play the NFL has to offer.
Adrian Peterson’s revenge game wasn’t meant to be. In his first game as a member of the New Orleans Saints, going against his former Minnesota Vikings squad, Peterson finished with just six carries for 18 yards. The only memorable moment he produced was getting caught yelling something at head coach Sean Payton on the…
Cardinals do-it-all star running back David Johnson left Sunday’s game against the Lions after injuring his wrist in the third quarter. Johnson reportedly dislocated his wrist, and based on what head coach Bruce Arians had to say to reporters today, the Cardinals are probably going to be without Johnson for quite some…
The NFL filed an appeal in the U.S. Court of Appeals Fifth Circuit today, seeking to overturn the preliminary injunction that United States District Court Judge Amos Mazzant handed down on Friday, which prevented the league from suspending Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott six games for violating the league’s…
It’s almost impossible to have a conversation about the NFL that doesn’t include a discussion of how many bad quarterbacks are in the league. But something gets lost when focusing this talk on just the Scott Tolziens and Josh McCowns of the world, and that’s the reality that many NFL quarterbacks who are largely…
Free-agent cornerback Antonio Cromartie’s wife, Terricka, recently gave birth to the couple’s sixth child. This is the 14th child that Cromartie has fathered, and the third that has been born after he had a vasectomy.
The NFL’s initial investigation into allegations of domestic violence against former Giants kicker Josh Brown, which resulted in a one-game suspension, accomplished nothing. Even less is accomplished by the fact that the NFL has reportedly decided to suspend Brown for an additional six games.
