data-mm-id=”_dtw8f4xt1″>I've been thinking about Seann William Scott a lot lately, as does anyone who was alive and consuming entertainment around the turn of the century. Fresh off writing about Eugene Levy and American Pie a few days ago, I caught a few minutes of American Wedding on Starz. I don't know if "holds up" is the right thing to say about an American Pie movie from 2012, but if you were ever in American Pie's target audience, I'm not sure you can deny you still feel a little at home in that world. And the center of that era, without a doubt in my mind, is Seann William Scott. This man was the early 2000s. He starred alongside Tom Green and Johnny Knoxville and Dwyane Johnson when he was still mostly just The Rock. In the actual year 2000, he …

data-mm-id=”_yhi04nsus”>Did you wake up this morning and wonder what Kyrie Irving has been up to? Neither did I, but the wonderful world of Twitter on Wednesday gave us an answer regardless!For someone who complains a lot about the media, it sure seems like Kyrie enjoys throwing ridiculous soundbites out in the universe for people like me to wonder aloud about That whole dance resumed today since he went more or less radio silent after he got mad that someone in the Nets group chat leaked his thoughts about the NBA bubble in Orlando over the summer. Appearing on Kevin Durant's new podcast titled The ETC's With Kevin Durant that premiered earlier this week, Kyrie kicked everything off by saying now that he's in Brooklyn with Durant, he's finally playing with somebody…
data-mm-id=”_mzdsoqx5q”>UPDATE: It appears the Texans brass reads The Big Lead. Either that or they listened to their star quarterback. Either way, after this story was written the Texans reportedly requested an interview with Chiefs offensive coordinator Eric Bieniemy for their head coaching opening. What follows below is the original report pointing out the fact that the Texans are behind other teams in terms of interviewing the top candidates despite being the first team to have an opening. The Texans were the first team to have a coaching opening after firing Bill O'Brien in the first week of October. Somehow, even given that head start, they are completely blowing their search. Most recently, the Texans reportedly set up interviews with Ravens assistant head coach David Culle…

data-mm-id=”_f802bdtnx”>Day 2 of the 2023 MLB Draft wrapped up on Monday as teams put the finishing touches on their first 10-rounds of picks. But Day 1 was where all the big action happened, and that included commissioner Rob Manfred being booed mercilessly by the crowd in Seattle. In what was a bizarre scene, Manfred was clearly shaken by the hostile crowd and almost seemed confused as to why anyone would boo him. This was what happened when Manfred stepped to the podium to announce the Houston Astros' pick, which was the last one he'd announce.Rob Manfred can barely get words out pic.twitter.com/DturFI8c4E— Baseball GIFs (@gifs_baseball) July 10, 2023Manfred was booed mercilessly all night but that was as bad as it got. Some in the crowd were probably also booing the Ast…
data-mm-id=”_q6oeye40m”>The Cleveland Browns hosted the San Francisco 49ers in Week 6. After some pregame fireworks, the 49ers scored on their first drive and and the Browns had a touchdown called back so it was just 7-0 San Francisco when the PJ Walker tried to sneak a first down on 3rd and 1 near midfield late in the first quarter. Walker appeared to get it, but the officials spotted the ball a little short. Then things got really interesting when they measured to see if he got the first down and the tip of the ball appeared to be even with the first down marker. After the #browns coach challenges the spot, the refs finally give them the first down. #SFvsCLE https://t.co/NfKsUZf9e8 pic.twitter.com/Olr347PhtC— Rate the Refs App (@Rate_the_Refs) October 15, 2023Cleveland vs. Officiat…
data-mm-id=”_qhdcfcwsd”>Draymond Green was ejected Tuesday night for essentially punching Jusuf Nurkic in the face. It was yet another ugly incident that marred a really good game in which the Phoenix Suns beat the Golden State Warriors 119-116. After the game, Green discussed the incident and his excuse for hitting Nurkic was, quite frankly, ridiculous. Here's the highlight of what happened:Draymond has been ejected after flagrant foul on Nurkić pic.twitter.com/RmrLU5tdw8— Bleacher Report (@BleacherReport) December 13, 2023And here is what Green tried to say caused him to do it:Draymond Green apologies to Jusuf Nurkic:"I didn't intend to hit him.

data-mm-id=”_vp20bpsdq”>The Detroit Lions did it! They finally won a playoff game after 32 long years. The Lions beat the visiting Los Angeles Rams 24-23 in what was the biggest thing to happen to the NFL in Detroit in three decades. It was such a momentous occasion that Lions fans were actually crying in the stands. Check this out: Tears in the Detroit crowd. What a moment. pic.twitter.com/mmzgdwHu2b— NFL (@NFL) January 15, 2024That is the release of so much pain that has lingered for so long. No one has had to experience the futility Lions fans have. They went 11 years without making the postseason from 2000 to 2011, and in there they had a two-year stretch where they went 0-16 and 2-14 in back-to-back campaigns. Before this season, it had been six seasons since they'd reached…
data-mm-id=”_j6txfntbk”>LeBron James has exceeded all expectations during his magnificent NBA career, becoming the league's all-time leading scorer, reaching eight consecutive NBA Finals, winning four NBA championships and capturing three Olympic gold medals.The 20-time All-Star matched the hype long ago as the 2003 NBA Draft No. 1 overall pick, and whenever he decides to retire, his accomplishments and unprecedented longevity have cemented him as arguably the greatest men's basketball player of all time.The early euphoria over James was genuine at St. Vincent-St. Mary High in Akron, Ohio, and it was best embodied by the iconic cover on Sports Illustrated featuring a 17-year-old LeBron with the headline "The Chosen One" along with a profile written by the late, grea…
