And here comes the lawsuit...: Mark Sanchez could have just quietly gone down in history as the Buttfumble guy, but it appears that's not the case anymore.

RIP Terry Funk and Bray Wyatt: The wrestling world lost one of its most legendary performers when hardcore innovator Terry Funk passed away this week at the age of 79. This was followed by another blow when one of WWE's most creative and innovative performers, Bray Wyatt (real name Windham Rotunda) died of cardiac-related COVID complications at the age of 36.

"Let me make barbecue chicken out of you.": Following the departure of Shannon Sharpe, and the inability of FS1 to find anybody who wants to work with Skip Bayless, the enfant terrible of shock jock sports TV goes after his "dream partner," Charles Barkley, in the most public, most desperate way possible.

And here comes the lawsuit...

Agreed. Including Fox in the lawsuit seems like an obvious money grab. I'm sure they're not expecting (or even remotely prepared) to get Fox in court, but are hoping for a quick settlement that pays off the client, and secures a handsome fee for the attorney.

NFL Pickem Week 6: Get Up, Trevor, Get Up

Under Titans/Raiders, there should be an option to pick "Nobody" as the winner. This game should just be called a tie and cancelled, for the sake of all involved.

For the Love of God Stop Betting Parlays

I unexpectedly got $100 in free bets on Fanatics when I bought some NFL merch, and every once in a while I'll throw $10 on the longest parlay I can find, just for the hell of it. If it wasn't free money, though, I doubt I would even know the site existed.

The Misogynistic Abuse Towards Rory McIlroy’s Wife at the Ryder Cup Is Deeper Than Golf

How many of these assholes sport DV convictions, or at the very least, charges, on their records? I'll set the over/under at 60% to start, which is probably conservative.
