23-year rookie, Jacob Misiorowski, had to defend home court last night against Clayton Kershaw and the 56-win Los Angeles Dodgers. It didn’t start off great… Shohei Ohtani hits a leadoff homer off Jacob Misiorowski! pic.twitter.com/jX22CK4Xwq — MLB (@MLB) July 8, 2025 Shohei Ohtani hit a lead-off homer off the rook. It was Ohtani’s 31st […]
I love MLB All-Star weekend. Rogers Clemens throwing a bat at Mike Piazza. Josh Hamilton smashing 2 million baseballs into outer space with a syringe between his toes. Shit, I love this new rule MLB’s starting this season: if a the game ends in a tie, there’s no extra innings. It busts into a home […]
The Yankees started their 2025 campaign jumping pitchers and breaking home run records. They were an All-Star team beating the saliva out of a league not properly prepared for their little torpedo bats. On May 28th, the Yankees had a 7-game lead over the Toronto Blue Jays. The AL East belonged to them and everyone […]
Sophie Cunningham is the loudest 5 points a game player in the history of history. I cannot open my phone without a new headline or video clip about the 2022 Most Improved Player 2nd runner-up—the closest she’s ever come to any real on-court achievement in her 7 years of irreleveant professional basketball—only coveted by never […]
BREAKING: Deandre Ayton has agreed to sign with the Los Angeles Lakers, sources tell ESPN. Between Portland and L.A., Ayton will earn $34 million next season.

The Denver Nuggets are trading Michael Porter Jr. and an unprotected 2032 first-round pick to the Brooklyn Nets for Cam Johnson, sources tell @samamick.bsky.social.

The New York Knicks front office has full clarity of their championship window. They understand little bitty Jalen Brunson won’t be a Top 5 playoff performer forever. I trust they will make the correct moves this offseason to keep the Knicks in the title picture. But after watching the Oklahoma City Thunder and Indiana Pacers […]
Malik Beasley is fucked. Last season, Malik Beasley averaged 16.3 and became only the 4th player in NBA history to hit over 300 3-pointers in a single season. He was instrumental in helping the Detroit Pistons make the playoffs for the first time since 2019. Pre-Covd shit. The BeforeTimes. He and the Pistons were close […]
This week was the 2025 NBA Draft. I love the draft. Kids in silly suits, their moms/girlfriends getting ready to click deliver on all those items they’ve been adding to their Amazon carts on Uber rides to practices. The occasional open weeping. The draft also serves as clues, puzzle pieces to help form all 30 […]
The Oklahoma City Thunder are the 2024-25 NBA Champions. Congrats to them. (You can read that last sentence sarcastically or sincerely depending on your own personal mood. I could not tell a grand jury which way I meant it.) This winners and losers list will describe which players, coaches, GMs or owners are winners and […]
Washington DC kind of sucks right now. A South African drug addict removed 60,000 federal jobs, so the unemployment rate is sky high over there. And the new people who work there are all MAGA sociopaths living in an alternate reality than the rest of us where they perceive America under constant threat of anyone […]
Jeanie Buss just hit a lick. Mark Walter purchased the Los Angeles Lakers for $10 billion—the largest U.S. professional sports team sale. Ever. Apparently Jeannie Buss will stay as the team governor but Mark Cuban said he’d still help make decisions with the Dallas Mavericks, only to be shocked when Luka Doncic was traded. Jeanie […]
Orlando paid a hefty price to acquire Grizzlies guard Desmond Bane 👀 (Picks via @joshrobbins.bsky.social) [image or embed] — The Athletic (@theathletic.bsky.social) June 15, 2025 at 11:32 AM Desmond Bane is leaving Memphis and the ear drum-shattering sounds of Ja Morant’s gunshots—and heading to Orlando—and the ear drum-shattering sounds of Franz Wagner bricking jumpers off […]
The Oklahoma City Thunder are one game away from winning an NBA Championship after their 120-109 Game 5 victory over the Indiana Pacers to go up 3-2 in the series. Thursday night could be the end of the 2024-25 NBA season with the Pacers losing in front of their home fans—in front of their hoes. […]
As a Knicks fan, I’d hate to see a 37-year-old with a busted achilles and a social media addiction join my beloved team. The man is almost guaranteed to miss a chunk of the season with some injury and, even in Golden State, he’s brought strange vibes to every ball club. I’m not sure how […]
The Boston Red Sox haven’t finished a season above .500 since 2021. 4 years of mediocrity. I thought this Boston winning every championhip bullshit was over. They shot Big Papi. The Red Sox dark magic had been vanquished. Their team owner, John Henry, started winning championships and immediately used the additional revenue to purchase everything. […]
