Bad refereeing
Streaming exclusive games behind paywalls
Deshaun Watson getting a quarter of a billion dollars
Integration of the league w/ gambling
Cost of being a fan rising
But nope. It’s a woman’s fault whose only crime is cheering on her boyfriend
Give me a freaking break
If anyone needs a timeline cleanse after Ingrid Andress' horrible national anthem, here's the greatest national anthem in the history of the MLB All-Star Game, courtesy of Meat Loaf in 1994
This is how it's done
NFL could decide on potential Bills-Chiefs neutral site this week. Where do you want the game to happen? My top three choices: Lambeau Field, Heinz Field, Soldier Field.

Why is Japan in 4th on this table despite having more medals than Great Britain
Why is France on the bottom
What the heck is the order of this graphic
After the trade deadline fire sale, the Marlins' active payroll is $13.75 million
This means that the Marlins cost less than a 60-second ad at the Super Bowl
Sean McDermott after the game:
"It really stinks that Tyler Bass couldn't hit the target there. You know, I know a couple of guys a few decades ago who did manage to hit their target..."
Ok while researching for this video I may have uncovered something absolutely insane
I don't think Michael Strahan's sack record from 2001 is legitimate. He didn't have 22.5 sacks. It was a stat error
And no, I'm not talking about the Brett Favre sack in week 17
@jon_bois
Absolutely love your work. Your style and the stories you told were a huge reason why I started doing this. To have you say that is truly the greatest compliment I've ever gotten
If we’re going off of NFL passer rating stats, then Connor Weigman for Texas A&M (12/30, 100 yards, 0 TDs, 2 INTs) had a rating of 21.53, which is worse than if you did nothing but spike the ball into the ground on every single play
I cannot tell you how much I despise the ESPN breaking news graphics
Look at this image. If you’re just looking at the photo, you have no idea what the news is
I know Jeff Passan broke it… but what did he break? Hader re-signs? Traded? New team? Suspended? Retiring?
A Super Bowl ad for 30 seconds costs $7 million
That comes out to $233,333 a second
This photo aired for 2 seconds
Which means when you break it down, the Jesus company spent at least half a million to show this picture of a kid standing on top of another kid to use the urinal
@jon_bois
I think I found the saddest punt ever. There's no footage of it (I so wish there was), but this comes from a 1977 game between the Jets and Patriots
4th and 2 on New England's 23. The Jets punt it
Then again, this is the same guy that somehow still has a job after legitimately thinking that kids were going to the bathroom in litter boxes and that schools were indoctrinating their students to become cats
@ShamsCharania
@TheAthletic
@Stadium
Multi-year guaranteed for the 55th pick in the draft, as in, a man who averaged 4 PPG and was a backup and only got drafted because of his name
That’s insane
@FabrizioRomano
He’s the only person that doesn’t need to apologize. Without him, they’re not even in the knockout round
Man stood on his head the entire tournament
@TexasLonghorns
So horns down is a sign of disrespect that should be banned, but degrading a national symbol of freedom with horns up is A-OK
You can’t have it both ways you hypocrites
@awfulannouncing
Agreed. I can’t remember the last time baseball added new things to try and make the game better
Like how great would it be if there was a pitch clock, the bases were bigger, and you only had two chances to pick someone off?
Oh wait
@MySportsUpdate
Can't believe the Jags drafted CJ Henderson and K'Lavon Chaisson in the first round of 2020
One of the all-time worst first rounds for any team ever
@Kofie
Every pickup game I watch at my gym is just guys thinking they’re Steph Curry jacking up 3s but with the accuracy of Shaq if he had 6 fingers instead of 10
This play from week 8 against the Cowboys counted as a sack for Strahan
Clint Stoerner snaps the ball at the 44-yard line. He makes it to the 43 1/2 yard line. He gains half a yard. You even see the official on the near side ahead of where the original LOS was
@UrinatingTree
The moment he started not letting the moment breathe and when he started relying more on making random noises and assigning weird nicknames to players than he did providing analysis and predicting plays
@BleacherReport
What an amazing moment that a guy averaging 4 PPG, shooting 26% from 3 as a guard, and unable to start on a below .500 team gets drafted purely because of nepotism
@TalkinBaseball_
This week, the Rockies lost a game where they choked in the 9th/strike 3 should’ve been called but wasn’t, and won a game on a pitch clock violation
What a weird homestretch
Florida needs to fire Billy Napier at halftime
The experiment needs to end. This team is still an undisciplined mess. The play calls still make no sense. Nothing has changed whatsoever
Napier needs to go
@tomgrossicomedy
The NFL is so funny because out of context, celebrating that someone sprained their MCL makes you look like a horrible person
But considering what it could've been and what we all thought it was, I think we're all rejoicing
@IOnlySayFacts
SNF loss is the worst
You can’t enjoy the afternoon slate because you’re stressed about your game, then you watch your team lose and have to go to bed angry
