by Eric Ravenscraft
Even if you're a devoted sports fan, chances are high you've wanted the commentators to just shut up at some point or another. If you're watching on a TV with surround sound, you can get your wish. Just disconnect (or turn down) the center channel.

This Tiny Pig Dancing in the Grass Is Everything
by Mark Shrayber
The only way this video could be better is if you put on that Lee Ann Womack song about dancing and hoping others dance and then also danced while you watched this. I hate that song, to be honest, but this pig would make it bearable. This pig is the key to world peace, you guys. This pig really is everything.

NFL Should Ditch the Pink Crap and Recognize Domestic Violence Instead
by Erin Gloria Ryan
Every October, the NFL festoons its players and stadiums in a cloying shade of pink and slaps its TV spots and billboards with an altruistic message: the NFL cares about breast cancer awareness, and by extension, cares about women. One thing the NFL hasn't acknowledged during its annual designated Lady Awareness Time is that October has long been the month devoted to a much more widely ignored public health issue that affects women: domestic violence.

Indianapolis Colts Donate $100K to Domestic Violence Charity
by Erin Gloria Ryan
At least one NFL team is doing what League leadership won't. In a move that's impressive for both its generosity and delicious levels of Ray Rice Debacle shade, the Indianapolis Colts have announced they're donating $100,000 and the proceeds of their home opener 50/50 raffle to a local domestic violence charity.

This Kid Is So Done With Obama He Can't Even Keep Himself Upright
by Mark Shrayber
Adults, right? It's like every time your parents drag you to a party they spend about 300 hours saying goodbye and you're just standing there smiling and trying to telepathically communicate that it's time to STFU and GTF out of there. This kid took matters into his own hands by just swan diving into a couch in the Oval Office.

The Best Commentary on Ray Rice's Suspension Comes From Joe Biden
by Erin Gloria Ryan
Say what you will about our Vice President's propensity to gaffes and awkward photo op nuzzling; when he's on, he is fucking on. This morning, in an interview with Today's Tamron Hall, his commentary on the Ray Rice suspension (and, on a larger scale, violence against women) was so on point that if John Oliver had said it, the Salon headline would claim that UTTER ANNIHILATION had occurred.

If You Care About Women and Still Support the NFL, You Are a Hypocrite
by Erin Gloria Ryan
It's been well-established that NFL leadership doesn't give a shit about women , but with newly-released footage of Ray Rice punching his then-fiancee in the face prior to being gently wrist-slapped with a two-game suspension, one has to wonder: do NFL fans give a shit about women?
