data-mm-id=”_pofkbb0zu”>Sure, the Minnesota Vikings are 9-4 and are mentioned in one of Lizzo's songs, but the team's true intrigue lies with the cleats worn by Stefon Diggs. It was going to be tricky to top his meme-styled cleats he showcased during Week 11. While today's didn't surpass that peak 2019 decision, his choice deserves an A for creativity. Against the Chargers, in Los Angeles, Diggs is paying homage to the classic movie Friday and Big Worm: View this post on Instagram @stefondiggs and the @vikings are in LA today so we went with a pair dedicated to another movie classic- Friday. As soon as Diggs said he wanted to do Big Perm, I mean Big WORM (haha) we had do it RIGHT and put the curlers on those laces ? @sircharlesmedia killing it on the visuals as always. #friday #bigworm #uniswag #customcleats #brkicks #skol #vikings A post shared by Mache (@mache275) on Dec 15, 2019 at 11:06am PSTThese are rather sharp and present a great blend of colors. You can never go wrong with the yellow and light blue mixture. Or a shoe with quotes on it. This football season has been the year of fashion choices. Thus here is the current ranking with two weeks to go:1. Odell Beckham Jr.'s Richard Mille orange watch.2. Benny Snell's spinning mouthguard.3. Stefon Diggs' meme cleats.4. Odell Beckham Jr. pumpkin cleats.5. Stefon Diggs' Friday cleats.6. Stefon Diggs' Popeyes chicken sandwich cleats.Yes, Benny Snell ruined the two-man race.

data-mm-id=”_lkfxcxg82″>In the most recent case of NBA history of a team trading a coach for a pick, the Boston Celtics sent Doc Rivers to the Los Angeles Clippers for a first-round pick ahead of the 2013-14 NBA season. Rivers would go on to enjoy seven years of playoff success with Lob City, and currently helms a Clippers squad that was second in the Western Conference when the season went on hold. Everything nearly came crashing down before it even started, as Rivers shared with Ernie Johnson on Monday night. The root of the problem, as one might expect, was former Clippers owner Donald Sterling. Sterling, you might recall, was given a lifetime ban from the NBA by Adam Silver in April 2014 after audio of Sterling making racist remarks was unearthed. Rivers said he didn't quite k…
data-mm-id=”_etfbe5n9r”>Saturday brought unexpected sports media conflict as Pro Football Talk's Mike Florio faced off with Outkick the Coverage's Jason Whitlock and Clay Travis on Saturday afternoon. It started on Friday night, when Whitlock called out Florio in a tweet mentioning he had never mentioned Juneteenth on the PFT account before, and noted he had "never hired a black man." Florio responded, saying he asked if Whitlock would write a column for PFT, but Whitlock said he couldn't afford him. Things escalated from there. Don't forget, he's also never hired a black man either. Florio will take a knee and do every gesture imaginable but he's not going to hire a black writer. Florio is pro-gesture, not pro-black. https://t.co/4uIsvjx7qm— J…
data-mm-id=”_jwunj6d9z”>A more reputable outlet would look at this morning's post about the demented nature of Detroit Lions fandom and gently suggest that's just about enough screaming into the abyss for an individual writer. And that right there is why it's great to be at a blog with a muddled flow chart and unencumbered access to the content management system. Because, folks, there's a few more things I'd like to say about the general enterprise under the stewardship of Matt Patricia and there's no one here to stop me. For instance, did you know that the Lions brass ran Jim Caldwell out of town for the sin of repeatedly winning nine games in a season? Did you know that Patricia, now in his third year at the helm, has compiled a 9-23-1 record? Did you fu…
data-mm-id=”_1q5zkpsnf”>Colin Cowherd suffered one of those, "shit, did I really just tweet that" moments yesterday, lauding the Packers as an unstoppable force of nature about two seconds before they completely imploded against the Bucs. If anyone sees a weakness w the Packers — give me a heads up. I can’t spot one.— Colin Cowherd (@ColinCowherd) October 18, 2020In fairness to Cowherd, the Packers looked dominant on both sides of the ball as they built a 10-0 lead on the road against Tom Brady and the Bucs. Then Aaron Rodgers threw two interceptions the Bucs turned into 14 points and the Bucs steamrolled Green Bay from there, winning 38-10. Cowherd admitted his tweet is no Bordeaux. Tweets aren’t wine.— Colin Cowherd (@ColinCowherd) October 19, 2020It took a little…
data-mm-id=”_ctiotfqah”>It's been an extremely active day on the J.J. Watt front. If you count this one, there have been six posts on the topic which have appeared on The Big Lead dotcom. Things moved especially quickly and chaotically around lunch as a very dumb rumor of Watt's Peloton profile seemingly pointed in the direction of his thinking before Watt himself said he doesn't even own a bike and then quickly reported news of a Arizona Cardinals future. This period wreaked havoc on the crew over at ESPN's Highly Questionable derailing an otherwise buttoned-up and polished show singularly focused on the biggest issues of the day. And showing off a Willy Wonka-approved display of man candy. Both Domonique Foxworth and Mike Golic Jr. were willing to expose their bar…
data-mm-id=”_1s9iqdxqf”>Kentucky quarterback Will Levis shared pictures of his absolutely shredded physique on Wednesday. The potential first-round pick in the 2023 NFL Draft has put in a ton of work. Many were impressed with the shape he's in and how much his body has changed since December. Don't count Colin Cowherd among those people. On Thursday, Cowherd took to the air and ripped Levis for not only his body but also for his decision-making. The decision-making part is interesting because he was talking not only about Levis' play on the field, but also his decision to share a mirror selfie of his muscles. Here's the segment in question:.@ColinCowherd calls out Will Levis"There are no great quarterbacks in league history who look like bodybuilders." pic…
data-mm-id=”_0aady6o32″>The Seattle Storm lost to the Chicago Sky and were officially eliminated from WNBA playoff contention on Sunday night, which is a brutal pill to swallow. Or maybe not, considering how laissez faire they seemed to be about simply declining to try to win after getting the ball down five points with 15 seconds remaining. Le's just say there was a lack of urgency. Both teams seemed perfectly content to allow the clock to run out without another shot being attempted. Which makes all the sense in the world for the team leading by two possessions and not much for the one chasing. So that's what they let happen and it was weird. This is so odd to me… #WNBATwitter https://t.co/PAepwkgp0q pic.twitter.com/rRHjrPoQGO— Leo S (@Y0Leo) August 28, 2023The bizarre …
