Final Jeopardy should have been “Name a football team. Any team, and you will win.”

Yeah, and the 2 previous years he finished 6th in QBR. His drop this year couldn’t possibly have something to do with them getting rid of his top 2 WR’s and having no support from the run game. Not to mention half his OL on IR. He still put up numbers. Cousins earned his money. And his former team with the insulting…

Nassar talked to police on Sept. 29. During his interview, Nassar insisted that what he had done was “a medical technique known as Sacrotuberous Ligament Release,” according to the police report

Calvin Murphy looking like a jackass? That’s hard to picture...

Long-time Nuggets fan: I do remember that. It was Mahmoud Abdul-Rauf and he was about to break Murphy’s record for highest FT percentage over the course of a season.

Long-time Rockets fans: Anybody else remember back when some guy (T-Wolves player?) was about to break Calvin Murphy’s consecutive free throw record, and Murphy, sitting at the announcers table, took the ball before the foul shot and rubbed it as though putting on a curse. The player then missed the free throw, and…

Good for him I thought. Maybe I should have flipped over.

Isaiah Thomas plays basketball like how I picture the Black Sox playing World Series baseball.

I usually just joke around on here like I’m 14 again and there’s no consequences other than my girlfriend saying I’m not remotely funny (unkind I know), but this strikes me as good for Kevin Love and the Cavs, assuming he heals normally. He needs real time away from that team, and they need real time to remember what…

But does he have a fracture, really?

Isaiah Thomas getting ready to call another team meeting

Thank you for providing examples of what a professional intercept should look like :-)

The Russians have a submarine making runs up and down the eastern seaboard in international waters right now. The Russians flew fighters and bombers off the west coast many times over the past few years. Naturally, the US sends intercepts. I doubt you will see US pilots doing what this guy did.

Russia flies planes off the coast of California all the time, Russian troll. US forces intercept Russian planes regularly, in a much more professional manner than the Russians seem capable of...

International airspace and waters is international airspace and waters. And our “flyboys” act nothing but professional when that happens. Which is has, many times during the Cold War.

Hi

Deadspin: why can’t sports be fun, it’s so awful having teams whose players hate each other and everything is so dreary

Is there any sport where teammates publicly complain about each other as much as basketball?

Brad Stevens is one of the best coaches in the league, and Ty Lue is not. He covered his deficiencies extremely well. As we learned from the Kyrie story, Ty thinks it was Kyrie’s job to make his teammates better, not LeBron. IT can only succeed on the court when he creates his own shots. This has been a disaster, and…

Basketball player makes anonymous critique of teammate, complains about anonymous critiques from teammates. Isaiah deserves the Cavs.
