In a world where planes are falling out of the sky and you have to save few paychecks up to purchase one dozen eggs, we’re all just looking for a romantic partner to help us carry the weight. Shannon Sharpe is no different from you or me. After 14 years as a Hall of Fame […]
I used to be obsessed with Deadseriousness page views. It was the only thing I cared about. I’d go entire days without eating—pumping out 10,15,20 garbage, clickbait articles to collect wildly fluctuating views—as I flippantly exploited teacher/student sex scandals and embarrassed addicts displaying Florida Man-esque behaviors for inconsistent checks from Google. Just churning out shitty, […]
For too long, we have allowed LeBron James to go about his career without any real criticism, examination or pushback. He’s been untouchable from his first steps onto an NBA court—never questioned or faulted for any mistakes he’s made. The media, as well as the fans, all treat LeBron like an untouchable diety—fearing internal damnation […]
I work from home so I spend most of my days locked into ESPN programming instead of actually working. I’ve been watching them slowly decline for years. Senior NFL reporter, Adam Schefter is one of the worst of the worst. He doesn’t do real reporting. Schefter is a vehicle, a mouthpiece for agents and owners, […]
The UCLA Bruins currently sit at 5-7 after losing back-to-back conference games to Washington and USC. Classic Big Ten football. In a year where the college football playoffs have expanded to seemingly allow every program into the postseason now, this isn’t a great time for UCLA to be lightyears away from relevance. With all the […]
Welcome to Media Mayhem where I make fun of media people whose jobs I used to want when I was a teenager until I realized how unremarkable most of these folks are. This week we have Fox Sports 1 switching things up and RGIII and Sam Ponder getting fired on their day off. […]
We may have just witnessed the most boring NBA Finals as the Boston Celtics beat the Dallas Mavericks in 5 uneventful games. It’s easy to hate seeing Boston Celtics fans experience joy and clowning Jayson Tatum for being a cornball is second nature at this point but I can’t help but think ESPN’s NBA broadcasts […]
Joy Taylor and Taylor Rooks have announced a new podcast called “Two Personal”. Here’s what Rooks said about the new venture: “Joy [Taylor] and I have navigated our careers together as sisters in sport, but Two Personal allows us to expand and share our private thoughts and conversations with our listeners. This show is a […]
Last offseason, the Philadelphia 76ers fired Doc Rivers, not for losing to a better team in the Boston Celtics but for blowing a 3-2 lead and the team looking like they could not wait to go home in Game 7. Rivers was then hired at ESPN and it felt like the Rivers head coach nonsense […]
As a Knicks fan, I am fully aware of my favorite team’s reputation. Since the 2000s, the Knicks have been run by a neanderthal who simply doesn’t understand the sport of basketball. But when he handed the keys to Phil Jackson in 2014, James Dolan essentially wiped his hands clean of all meddling and intervening […]
This week, the Arena Group sent an email to all Sports Illustrated employees saying “We will be laying off staff that work on the SI brand,” essentially killing the prestigious brand that, for years, had been as vibrant as a coma patient. For generations, Sports Illustrated acted as the gold standard of sports journalism. Some […]
Every week, Aaron Rodgers appears on the Pat McAfee show to say lame nonsense and every week, he is trending for 24 straight hours as people clutch their pearls pretending as if society will crumble if ESPN allows this show to air next week. Recently, Aaron Rodgers and Jimmy Kimmel have been at war because […]
One day I hope to live in a world where a week can go by without Aaron Rodgers saying or doing something strange but unfortunately, this is not that week because Rodgers once again returned to Pat McAfee’s ESPN show to say some weird shit for no reason. Towards the end of his segment, Aaron […]
NFL Week 15 just happened and there are still 3 more weeks left in what feels like the longest and worst NFL season of my lifetime—but that’s a conversation for another day. Right now, let’s make fun of some people who had a rough week. Here are the biggest losers of NFL Week 15: […]
Cam Newton is one of the greatest quarterbacks to ever throw a football but you wouldn’t know that from the way TV analysts talk about him like he’s some low IQ dork who can’t wrap his mind around the complexities of the NFL. On a recent episode of Cam Newton’s podcast, Cam said Brock Purdy, […]
Every now and then, someone gets in front of a microphone and elects to share information about themselves they 1000% should not be sharing. This week, it was Charissa Thompson who went on Barstool Sports’s Pardon My Take and tried to be one of the boys but accidentally told on herself. Here’s what Charissa said […]
