In defense of bad officiating
I’m not going to list all of the polarizing topics people argue about on the internet because there’s not enough time in the day, and I typically avoid thinking about things that make me want to chug paint thinner. There’s so little human beings can agree on that we need at least one evil force to u...
'Coach' Tommy Tuberville is the worst senator in the country
Allow me to address your concerns right off the bat. Yes, saying that Alabama Senator Tommy Tuberville is the worst Senator in America feels subjective at best, and like hyperbole for the sake of clicks at worst. But hear me out. I am confident you’ll come to share my opinion, even in the day of oth...

Sick, Sad World of Sports: The grim side of athletics
Hello, and welcome back to the Sick, Sad World of Sports, a reminder that sports figures are human, and as such, are no more or less prone to fallibility than the rest of us.

Don’t let Michigan and Michigan State’s dramas distract you from Northwestern’s
It doesn’t matter if you love or hate what has become of Michigan football this season, or if the drama around them has made you forget about Mel Tucker and Michigan State, we can all agree that they’ve both been the common denominator of their own drama.

Sage Steele and Michele Tafoya: A match made in delusion
So how does one become an official member of the “Coalition of Courage,” Michele Tafoya? Is there a fee? Do you hold meetings? Is there a secret intake process that has been passed down through the decades? Or does one simply have to take a decorated career in an industry that becomes more difficult...
Embarrassing moron thinks space lasers started Maui wildfires
There’s anxiety, and then there’s paranoia. If you’re afraid of flying, crowds, or clowns, that’s understandable. Everybody has their own quirks, but when it comes to the hardcore baseless conspiracy theorists — say, shadowy government forces using cutting-edge military weaponry to start a deadly fi...

The NBA is never drama-free, and there’s a reason the NBA playoffs are one of the few reasons to remain on the toxic hell site that is Twitter these days. But even for the NBA, this season has been a spectacle worth of Vanderpump Rules. As we inch ever closer to the post-season, here’s a look back a...

As we dive deeper into the single digits of our IDIOT OF THE YEAR countdown, we’ve come to a crossroads.

Drew Brees can teach Kyrie Irving something about apologies
In the aftermath of Kanye West’s antisemitic rants, Kyrie Irving did what instigators do. He got busy pouring gasoline on flaming hot tensions, then pretended to be an innocent bystander when the lights came on. Basic home training dictates Irving should have apologized profusely on day one just to ...

Whew… we need to talk about the Russian gymnasts
This morning, I woke up to the sight of a river of people, from the elderly down to the babies carried in their parents’ arms, trying to escape Ukraine. I watched my TV in horror as they slipped and slid uphill, some of them falling, wondering if they were going to get back up again. Behind them, a ...

What the hell is Jonathan Allen even talking about?
Another day, another completely avoidable problem for the Washington Commanders. It’s Thursday, you know what that means. Another problem!
