A large group of Wisconsin athletes, most notably Big Ten preseason player of the year Nigel Hayes, tweeted out an essay regarding the racism that they say athletes of color at Wisconsin face every day. The post comes a week after a fan showed up to the Wisconsin football game on Saturday with an Obama mask on and a…

With three seconds left in the first half of the Seahawks-Bills game, chaos took over.

At a rally in Manchester, New Hampshire this evening, empty gas station salami wrapper Donald Trump revealed the endorsements of a pair of New England Patriots heroes. Tom Brady and Bill Belichick purportedly told the future former candidate for president that they’d vote for him, and Trump even read from a letter he…

Two Monday Night Footballs ago, Randy Moss showed off his kicking skills. This week, he caught a dang salmon with one hand.

Four years ago, the Cleveland Browns traded up to pick Trent Richardson third overall in the 2012 NFL Draft. He hasn’t had a carry in an NFL game since 2014, and he was cut by the Ravens this offseason without ever getting on the field.

Curt Schilling, noted opinion-haver and former baseball star, is no fan of journalists. Never mind that he, uh, works for a media company and used to be employed by ESPN, Curt will not pass up an opportunity to rip the LIBERAL MEDIA. To him, advocating that journalists should be hanged from trees is, in a phrase…

Throughout the playoffs, Cubs fans have been writing messages and drawing with chalk on the walls of the team’s stadium (thank you to the tipster who sent us photos of all the nearby dicks they could find scrawled on the ground). The Cubs cleaned everything off when the World Series started, but since the team won,…

There’s no mystery about this site’s political leanings, and probably somewhat less public interest in who we’re voting for. Despite that, we thought it would be worthwhile on principle to follow our friends at Reason and Slate and go on record with our voting preferences, partly because it’s a worthwhile thing to let…

Cyclocross is a sport that fuses road bike racing with mountain biking, creating a hybrid sport that is essentially road racing on a muddy obstacle course. As such, people crash all the time into the mud while trying to bunny hop over barriers, navigate slippery corners, or descend sandy inclines. It’s a weird sport,…

Last year, former Deal Or No Deal model Laura Shields tweeted “I need to find that one pic I have of pinching Trump’s bottom.” We’ve got your photo, Laura—and a few others from the night in 2007 the GOP candidate celebrated his birthday with models in Atlantic City in, we’re told, the absence of his wife Melania.

Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott was named in another police report, this time for possible battery, involving the same woman who called police in July. This report was from a call to police in South Florida back in February and, like the July case, resulted in no criminal charges being filed. USA Today first…

Yesterday against the Dolphins, Jets coach Todd Bowles benched two of his best players, Mo Wilkerson and Sheldon Richardson, for the first quarter. Bowles declined to reveal to the press why he sat two of the team’s only indispensable players during a quarter in which the Dolphins put up two touchdowns, but one report…

We here at Jezebel value feedback from our readers, particularly on matters of such importance as the 2016 presidential election. We value this feedback so much that sometimes we save it, and forward it to each other, and, in the case of one intrepid staffer, keep it in a special folder titled “Emails I Am Enjoying.”

The one-win San Francisco 49ers have been seriously unwatchable this year, but they competently pulled off a shrewd play in Sunday’s game against the New Orleans Saints.

Sebastian Giovinco is far and away the best player in MLS, a bullshit soccer league more invested in protecting its owners from the forces of competition than in producing top-level competition on the pitch. That Giovinco is such a beast in this league makes him an at least plausible candidate for representing the…
