The story of Bishop Sycamore might be the craziest sports anecdote of 2021. An alleged “fake” high school from Columbus, Ohio set the internet ablaze after the school fooled ESPN into airing one of their games against powerhouse IMG academy by telling them they had several Division I athletes on their roster. ESPN announcers admitted […]
It finally happened. Kanye West dropped Donda on Sunday morning, following several false starts and a month of public release parties. It didn’t come without a little last-minute drama, though.
