Watching the Miami Dolphins is like opening a gift and expecting something other than a box full of dicks. And that box full of dicks is now 0-5 after a 24-6 loss to their hated rival New York Jets on Monday Night Football.So the bad news is, the Dolphins remain winless…

Nike knows LeBron James is special. He has the heart of a lion they say, but the new logo they’ve unveiled or the Heat star’s latest apparel line is pretty generic. Dubbed the “Lion 6” logo, LeBron actually debuted the logo while wearing a prototype of an off-the-court jacket during…
