data-mm-id=”_0jqc3h2d0″>Keith Olbermann has announced his departure from ESPN. He will go back to delivering political commentary on a new YouTube show beginning on Wednesday. Olbermann made the announcement on Twitter Tuesday evening, the video is below:Keith has a small professional announcement to make ;-)? https://t.co/f4srh2uMem— Keith Olbermann (@KeithOlbermann) October 6, 2020Olbermann was in the middle of his third stint at ESPN, having returned to the network in 2018 and working in various capacities. He began hosting SportsCenter again in May of 2018 and occasionally called Major League Baseball games as well. He claims this time he is leaving on great terms with ESPN. That's nothing like his first departure which was contentious and involved a long running feud with t…

data-mm-id=”_gud85jjoq”>LeBron James returned to Cleveland on Monday night for the first time in a few years. Being the showman he is, LeBron decided he was going to try that night and it resulted in a 46-point barrage against his former team. The Cavs were actually in the game until halfway through the fourth quarter, which is rather surprising given they are one of the worst teams in the league and lost by 38 to the Boston Celtics one day prior. Then LeBron hit a few back-breaking three-point bombs, capped off by a deep turnaround jumper over both Collin Sexton and Jarrett Allen to seal the deal. It was your classic LeBron performance, but it also wasn't. The King dominated the game, but he also hit seven of 11 three-point attempts. That's not usually LeBron's game. He…

data-mm-id=”_yljq0jwih”>Zack Hample is one of Major League Baseball's biggest villains. The 44-year-old "baseball collector" goes from stadium to stadium attempting to catch home run balls, often battling and shoving other people out of his way — including kids. Well, on Friday we learned someone finally stood up to Hample. A Colorado Rockies usher who put him in his place. Two days ago, Hample posted video to his YouTube channel of an usher at Coors Field telling him he needed to stay in his seat, instead of running all over the park to catch fly balls. Hample, of course, argued and made himself look like a jackass. The irony is, he posted the video in an attempt to make the usher (and the fellow ushers who backed him up) look bad but it turned into a massive self-own.…

data-mm-id=”_ltq5rbjgl”>A massive tornado touched down in Nash County, North Carolina on Wednesday and left a ton of destruction in its wake. It was on the ground for up to 10 miles and spared nothing in its path. You may have seen footage of a massive Pfizer plant that collapsed after being hit. Well, now we have footage from inside a house it tore apart and it is crazy. Here's video:NEW VIDEO | Up close look as tornado moves through Nash County. https://t.co/V194r9WnFV pic.twitter.com/NCXHjOoigQ— ABC11 EyewitnessNews (@ABC11_WTVD) July 20, 2023First off, if a tornado is hitting your house, maybe put the camera down and get to shelter? Seriously, how do you keep running that video? I mean, I'm happy everyone seems OK, and the video has survived for us to use. But still, sa…

data-mm-id=”_go2ppsytd”>Jake Bobo is an undrafted, 25-year-old rookie out of UCLA who ran a slug-like 4.99 40-yard dash at the 2023 NFL scouting combine. He also just made the catch of year in the NFL for the Seattle Seahawks. Check this out:JAKE BOBO HAS JUST MADE THE MOST INSANE TOUCHDOWN CATCH YOU'LL SEE TODAY!📺 FOX pic.twitter.com/lZaGVNieAE— Seattle Seahawks (@Seahawks) October 22, 2023How did he catch that? How did he get his feet in? How did he even get open given that he runs like defensive tackle in lead-lined shoes? So many questions. The play was initially called incomplete but after review was correctly called a touchdown. That's a hell of a throw from Geno Smith. He deserves a lot of credit there. Bobo entered the game with 51 yards and one touchdo…

We are here to dig into the toughest decisions you may be facing for your fantasy matchup in Week 16 of NFL action and give you answers. Some of those answers may even be right!Presenting our Week 16 start 'em, sit 'em calls. Ty Chandler, RB, Minnesota Vikings Chandler came in clutch on Saturday afternoon, racking up over 20 fantasy points while receiving pretty much all of the RB carries for Minnesota with Alexander Mattison hurt. The various backup quarterbacks the team is shuffling through helps incentivize Kevin O'Connell's staff to keep leaning on the run game, too. However, he's a risky start for this week. Mattison could siphon some of his carries if he …

data-mm-id=”_nupaaib2x”>Marjorie Taylor Green showed up to the State of the Union address on Thursday wearing an all red ensemble and topped it off with a MAGA hat. It was definitely not a desperate cry for attention, I don't know why you'd assume that. As Joe Biden entered the House of Representatives and greeted friends and colleagues, Green tried to get the president's attention. Biden reacted then ignored her antics. Here's video:Biden experiences Marjorie Taylor Greene in a MAGA hat at SOTU pic.twitter.com/vGtkBUJxSv— Aidan McLaughlin (@aidnmclaughlin) March 8, 2024That's actually a hilarious reaction, and probably how most people feel when the encounter MTG. As he continued to greet well-wishers, Green attempted to confront Biden and he ignored her:Marj…
