If he didn't shave his beard this whole thing could have been avoided.

Someone should get all these people in touch so they can swap and get what they wanted. Then shoot them.

Even Hanley Ramirez isn't dumb enough to give himself an extension.

Or just say "fuck the draft" and let players sign as free agents out of college. There is still a salary cap in place. You are free to decide how much you want to believe in a 19 year old kid who may be the next great thing, or could be a colossal bust. The player has other teams to use for leverage, and teams don't…

You guys bag on Simmons a lot, but I think his "Entertaining As Hell" tournament idea is actually close to the way to go. Making teams play for better draft positions makes the league more competitive each year.

Straight cashmere, homie.

USA Today pointed out some since-corrected Knicks jokes in the song titles, but there are already a few more to replace them. ("Don't Waste My Time I've Got a Team to Run Into the Ground" is actually…

If you're going to bench a starting QB that got injured, Jay Cutler is a pretty good choice, because chances are he gives zero fucks if he starts or not.

Was there a different title up there before? Because "Why I believe Jameis Winston's Accuser" doesn't seem out of bounds to me. Newspapers often publish editorials where the title is an opinion, and it's understood the opinion belongs to the author, not the paper as a whole. Since every Gawker site is designed to be…

Don't worry. Your national title is still safe.

Yup. Even the shithead players, to some extent. There's absolutely no reason amateur sports should be paired with college other than an accident of history.

Lakers bros

And to think there were some who speculated that Ford would never run again.
