Lithuania and Croatia have the honor of being the final game of Men’s Olympic Basketball group stage, and the results of the 9:30 PM EST game could have major results on who moves onto the quarterfinals elimination round. Currently, Lithuania is tied for first place with Argentina in Group play, but because they won their head-to-head matchup they get the nod should both teams win tonight.

Obviously, Lithuania would like to be #1 and take on Group A #4 Serbia (over #3 France), but to do that they’ll have to beat a Croatian team that needs a win to guarantee their place in the quarter-finals. In order to get that win, they’ll need Raptor’s big Donatas Motiejūnas to dominate on the rebounding and defensive end, plus get some help from the homie Mindaugas Kuzminskas who just signed to the NY Knicks this summer. Kuzminskas scored 23 points in their win over Argentina, but seemed to disappear against Spain. To be fair though, everyone disappeared against Spain who won that game in an absolute rout, 109-59.

This is one of the toughest things I’ve ever had to watch. Daniel ‘Danny’ Fitzpatrick’s slife ended last Thursday when the 13-year-old from Staten Island committed suicide in the attic of his home.

According to Inquisitr, the young teen left behind a suicide note to explain to his family the circumstances in his life that led him to believe that his death was the only way to put an end to his pain.

Fox News report claims that instead of helping, administrators at a Brooklyn Catholic school – Holy Angels Catholic Academy- sent child-welfare investigators to the family of the 13-year-old boy.

The Fitzpatricks have set up a Go Fund Me page to give Danny a proper burial. They have raised over $110,000 so far. You can donate here.

Anna Voloshyna hot

Anna Voloshyna is the a smoking hot 24-year-old Ukrainian synchro swimmer. During her competitive swimming career, Anna has won a whopping 15 medals at the European Championships – including gold in the combination routine and team free routine. She has also won four World bronze medals during the course of her career.

Voloshyna finished fourth at the solo free routine and solo technical routine at the 2015 World Aquatics Championships, which came just a couple of days after she won a bronze medal in duet free routine in duet with Lolita Ananasova.

At the 2016 Rio Olympics, Anna went viral, and rightfully so, for the playful ‘strip tease’ she did before entering the pool. During the Games, she’s competing in both Women’s Duet and Women’s Team synchronised swimming. You can see why the internet loved her video so much for yourself below.

Madison Kocian is a 19-year-old U.S. Olympic artistic gymnast. The Dallas, Texas native made her first Olympic appearance in Rio, but she already had plenty of experience in big time international competition. She won team all-around golds at the 2014 and 2015 World Championships, and she brought home gold in the uneven bars at the 2015 World Championships.

Madison made her Olympic debut count, winning two medals at the 2016 Summer Olympics. She won the team all-around gold with Simone Biles, Gabby Douglas, Laurie Hernandez, and Aly Raisman, as the “Final Five” coasted to victory with a score of 184.897. They beat second place Russia by more than eight points.

After winning a team gold on Tuesday, August 9, Madison came through with a terrific encore performance. On Sunday, August 14, she won silver in the uneven bars, narrowly missing out on gold by the slimmest of margins. Madison’s score of 15.833 was just 0.067 of a point behind gold medal winner Aliya Mustafina of Russia.

Let’s celebrate Madison’s two medals by taking a look at 22 of her hottest photos. USA! USA! USA!

Clay Matthews among four NFL players who will could suspended by NFL

The NFL will suspend the four active players at the forefront of a PED probe- Clay Matthews, James Harrison, Julius Peppers and Mike Neal- if they don’t provide interviews to the league by August 25. USA Today first broke the story.

Those four players were implicated in the Al Jazeera America report that also implicated former Broncos quarterback Peyton Manning, who provided an interview to clear his name.

Matthews and Peppers are teammates for the Green Bay Packers, Harrison plays for the Pittsburgh Steelers, and Neal is currently a free agent. All four players play the linebacker position.

In a letter addressed to the NFL Players Association, league executive Adolpho Birch wrote what would happen if the interviews were not provided by the deadline:

The suspension for each such player will begin on Friday, August 26 and will continue until he has fully participated in an interview with league investigators, after which the Commissioner will determine whether and when the suspension should be lifted.

Joseph Gordon-Levitt stars as NSA whistleblower Edward Snowden in the upcoming movie Snowden, but whereas Snowden is secluded somewhere in Russia, the movie star has no problem making himself seen right in the middle of New York City.

Check out this video of the suave movie star drumming out like an absolute madman in a Big Apple subway station while wearing a suit. If you’re going to make this kind of video you can’t hold back, and thankfully Gordon-Levitt went balls-to-the-wall for our enjoyment.

 

Definitely one of the more talented young actors around, Gordon-Levitt shows himself to be a pretty damn good drummer as well.

The New York Daily News writes:

The random act is part of his initiative called “Everyday Spectacular” —a collaboration between his production company HitRecord and mobile device company LG — which challenges artists to entertain in public and upload videos of their spontaneous shows.

And in typical New York City fashion, some people in the video turn to check out the movie star’s drum solo but many others couldn’t care less.

Johnny Manziel May Be Unemployed And A Punchline But He Was Just Voted The SEC’s GOAT

Is Johnny Manziel actually the SEC GOAT?

(Getty)

Johnny Manziel is currently out of the NFL and a laughingstock after numerous personal problems derailed the former first-round pick’s career. But it was only 2012 when “Johnny Football” made history by becoming the first Freshman to ever win the Heisman trophy. While Manziel clearly couldn’t handle the pressure accompanying that early success, there’s no doubt that for his two seasons at Texas A&M he was impressive.

Thus, the quarterback was deservingly included in The Tennessean’s 64-man bracket to name the best football player in the history of the SEC, one of college football’s most storied conferences. But then the controversial Johnny Football actually won the fan-voted contest.

After Manziel was announced the winner, The Tennessean’s  David Ammenheuser wrote:

Johnny Manziel made a mockery of The Tennessean’s Heroes of the SEC fan-balloting contest.

The former Texas A&M quarterback beat former Auburn great Bo Jackson in the championship round of the bracket-style fan balloting.

When the contest ended Monday, Manziel beat Jackson by a 95.3-4.7 percent edge.

It wasn’t close. And, frankly, it’s embarrassing.

 

So yeah, in reality Johnny Manziel probably wasn’t the best player in the SEC. Sometimes being a loose cannon with name recognition is all you need to win a popularity contest. Just ask the Republican presidential nominee. But in the end, no matter how badly Manziel screws up his life going forward, he can always take comfort in being named the SEC’s greatest ever player.

So Jerry Jones, you have the chance to sign the SEC’s GOAT. Please do it. And I’m not just saying that because I’m a Giants fan. Votes don’t lie; Johnny Manziel is the greatest, and he can be all yours, Jerry.

Women’s pole vault kicks off this week as we head down the back stretch of the 2016 Summer Olympic Games in Rio, and we couldn’t be more excited.  We’ve been huge fans of the sport for years, following such incredible vaulters like 2 time gold medalist Yelena Isinbayeva and internet phenom Allison Stokke (contrary to popular belief, Stokke has never qualified or participated in an Olympic games).  These women are just awesome to watch.  They are fearless, ridiculously fit and impossibly graceful as they fly through the air in this incredibly dangerous sport.

Although men’s pole vault has been present on the Olympic athletics programme since the first Summer Games in 1896, women’s pole vault is a relative newcomer.  Rio marks only the fifth Olympics to feature women’s pole vaulting.  Since it’s inclusion in Sydney in 2000, the event has only been won by 2 countries, The United States and Russia.  This year, with the controversy surrounding disqualified Russian vaulter Isinbayeva, the US is looking like a very strong contender to bring home the gold. Keep your eyes on returning gold medalist at the 2012 London Games Jenn Suhr, Sandi Morris and Arkansas student Lexi Weeks, as they aim to make America proud.

Qualification heats take place on Tuesday, August 16th at 8:45 am with the final on Friday, August 19th at 7:30 pm.  To prepare you for the upcoming vault competition, we’ve put together an incredible collection of photos of the hottest women pole vaulters competing in Rio.

Olympic Boxing Wins Another Gold Medal For Corruption In Heavyweight Finals Match

A little known fact is that the governing sports bodies (FIFA, FIBA, IAAF, etc.) are the ones ultimately responsible for making sure their events run smoothly at the Olympics. So it comes as no surprise to boxing fans that the “Association Internationale de Boxe Amateur” (AIBA) once again allowed corruption to tarnish their gold medal heavyweight bout.

AIBA judges have repeatedly been at the forefront of asinine decisions when it comes to picking Olympic champions. First, there was the mysterious case of Park Si-Hun who infamously beat Roy Jones Jr in 1988, despite only landing less than half the punches of Jones Jr.

Then, in the 2012 London Olympics, Japanese boxer Satoshi Shimizu knocked down Azerbaijan boxer Magomed Abdulhamidov a total of five times in the last round of the final bantamweight match. Five times. And guess who was awarded the win? Abdulhamidov, by a score of 22-17. It was a disgrace and remains one to this day. You can watch that fight below.

So who’s really all that surprised that during yesterday’s heavyweight gold medal match, between Kazakhstan boxer Vassily Levit and Russian Evgeny Tishchenko, there was a screwjob of epic proportions? Not me. Not a lot of people. And that’s exactly what happened. For the entire match, Levit was in full control of the fight. In the first round, Tischchenko only landed a couple of punches compared to the flurry from Levit.

Then in the third round, Levit opened up a bad cut on Tischchenko. The referee called for a timeout to give the Russian’s corner time to fix him up, but awarded their corner more time than is normally necessary. Most people watching believed it was time to give the Russian some room to recover.

And at the end, when Tischchenko was awarded the win despite being completely outboxed, the fans started booing loudly. Via BadLeftHook:

The fans in Rio booed the decision, and mightily cheered Levit when he returned for the medal ceremony. They also booed Tishchenko, but Levit motioned for them to stop, if nothing else understanding that Tishchenko was not the person to blame for the decision.

Is this the last year we see boxing as an Olympic event? If not, something needs to be changed because frankly, this is an embarrassment.

Jenn Suhr: Hottest Photos of Olympic Pole Vaulter

US Olympian Pole Vaulter Jenn Suhr is one of the greatest pole vaulters in the history of the sport and currently has 17 national titles, the most of any current US Track & Field athlete. So it’s a complete bummer that she’s going to have to compete in Rio with some sort of severe “mysterious illness.” Her husband and trainer posted to Facebook her situation:

Jenn has fallen ill, quite ill in the last two days. This morning it has really kicked in, she has lost her voice almost completely. Seems she picked up a nasty virus here and has caused respiratory complications. This sucks, and I mean really sucks! Seems so unfair, we came here in the greatest shape of our life. 4 years of total dedication eaten up in one nasty virus that is only getting worse. We have to compete tomorrow and have both decided not to withdraw. Hoping the antibiotics and other meds given by our doctors help. But this does not look good. We will fight the good fight. God has blessed us with Olympic gold and silver in the past. So I can’t be angry. I am just so disappointed.

Suhr will compete in the semi-finals on Tuesday, choosing to start from the height of 4.45 meters. If she can survive the semi-finals on Tuesday, she’ll have until Friday to get better.

Spain and Turkey face off today in the second game of Olympic Women’s Basketball quarterfinals action today at 1:30 PM EST. Spain finished second in Group B behind the USA, so they’ll take on Turkey who earned the #3 seed in Group A. These two teams played each other in the 2014 World Cup semifinal, when Spain beat 66-65, but things are a little different this go around.

The Turks are led by LaToya Sanders, a Turkish-American basketball player who’s the second-leading scorer in the Olympic games. She’s looking for revenge and to prove that the Turks, who’ve never won a medal in the World Cup or the Olympics, are not a team to mess with.

El Chapo’s Son Is One Of Six Kidnapped In Puerta Vallarta Restaurant

Ivan Guzman Kidnapped

You might have heard the rough news that up to six people were abducted and kidnapped from the La Leche restaurant in Puerta Vallarta last night. Now we’re learning that one of the six was none other than El Chapo’s son, Ivan Archivaldo Guzmán, who assumed control of his father’s business after he was put in jail.

Jalisco attorney general Eduardo Almaguer told Radio Formula that “it is presumed,” though not yet certain, that Ivan Archivaldo Guzmán was among the kidnapped men.

Experts say Guzmán assumed control of parts of his father’s business after he was re-arrested in January [sources].

Police forces, who have grown pretty accustomed to the insane violence that surrounds cartels, commented that they found it strange members of cartels would be taken without any gunfire. Whether they’ll use him as blackmail bait, or just torture him to infuriate El Chapo, we’ll have to wait and see.

Who Is Ivan Guzman?

Ivan Archivaldo Guzman is the son of El Chapo, the former head of the Sinaloa Cartel–the biggest drug gang in the world. Since El Chapo’s arrest earlier this year, it is believed that Ivan took over his father’s business affairs.

Ivan has been linked to his father multiple times, but mostly in reference to mistakes. It was believed that Ivan once posted a photo on Twitter of his father, failing to remove the location data from the picture. Additionally, the Sinaloa Cartel blames Ivan for connecting Sean Penn and Kate Del Castillo with El Chapo–a move that eventually led to his capture.


What Happened?

It’s presumed that Ivan Guzman, five of his associates, and four female partners were dining and partying at La Leche restaurant around 1 AM when a group of seven armed men entered the restaurant. The women were left alone, as were the other patrons of the restaurant, but Guzman and five others were taken away.

The United States Women’s National Basketball team will play against Japan in the quarterfinals of the Olympics tonight at 5:45 PM EST. You’ll be able to watch USA vs Japan on the NBC Sports Network or via a live stream on your mobile device or computer.

Led by the greatest female players in the world, Team USA has been winning their games handily against opponents and we don’t expect that to change tonight against Japan. The Japanese only won three out of their five Group B games, one of which was against Brazil–the weakest team in the tournament.

The USA is expected to win by 38 points, although truthfully that number could end up being much bigger if Japan doesn’t find a way to stop the USA from grabbing offensive boards and easy points in the paint.

Austin Harrouff is a current student at FSU (not for much longer) who hails from Jupiter, FL. He was in Miami with a couple of his fraternity brothers but was last seen dining with his parents at Duffy’s, a local sports bar.

His Facebook page states that he’s a member of the Alpha Delta Phi fraternity.


What Happened?

Harrouff was having dinner with his parents, who reported that he stormed out of dinner extremely angry. The Daily News reports they went so far as to call the police. “His parents called the police after he became angry, possibly over slow service, and walked out of a local sports bar named Duffy’s.” His parents must have contacted his fraternity brothers because they all started looking for Harrouff.

The next time that Harrouff was seen, he was spotted in the driveway by a female deputy who responded to a stabbing 911 call. Harrouff was on top of John Stevens III, biting pieces of his face off. The female officer hit him with a taser, which apparently had zero effect. Once they were able to successfully subdue him, they learned the extent of his crime.

From The Daily News:

Snyder said Harrouff didn’t know the couple before the 10:30 p.m. attack, which he called “completely unprovoked and random,” the Miami Herald reported. Investigators said Harrouff used a switchblade and several “weapons of opportunity” in the couple’s garage.

“There was an enormous amount of violence in that garage,” Snyder said. He noted deputies found the woman’s body in the garage. Investigators believe Stevens fought for his life before Harrouff killed him and started biting off chunks of his face.

Additionally, Harrouff had injured the couple’s neighbor, who initially tried to subdue the suspect. But after severe trauma, the good samaritan was forced to back off and call 911.

Originally, Harrouff gave a fake identity to the police, but he was eventually identified. When he arrived at the hospital, police say that he was making animal noises.

Police investigating the crime expect that some sort of synthetic drug will be ultimately responsible for the gruesome and extremely violent crime. Earlier tests for cocaine and marijuana came up negative, although the “Flakka” or “K2” tests can take a little longer.

Austin Harrouff, an FSU student, has been arrested and charged with a gruesome double murder in Miami that involved biting the faces off of one of his victims. The 19-year-old had to be subdued by three police officers armed with a taser and a K9 unit around 9:30 P.M. on Monday night.

You can read more about the grisly murder in the post below.

We pulled a couple of photos from Harrouff’s Facebook page below, in addition to some pictures from the scene, and a photo that’s probably his driver’s license or freshman FSU ID.

Sage Watson is essentially our dream girl: she’s an Olympian, a college student, and a smoking hot blonde. Watson, a 22-year-old, is a Canadian athlete who specializes in the 400-meter hurdles. She has represented her country at the 2015 World Championships in Beijing. During the 2015 World Championships, Watson made it all the way to the semifinals. This past July, she was officially named as a part of Canada’s Olympic Track & Field Team.

As far as college girls go, Sage Watson is about as great as it gets. A business marketing major at the University of Arizona, Sage seems like she kicks ass in school and also somehow finds a way to be an Olympian. That fact that she’s blonde and super hot also helps too.

There’s got to be an easier way.

The first few weeks of school are busy enough. Moving in, catching up with friends, adding (and dropping) classes. And when you finally nail down your class schedule, the professor hands you the required reading list. Ugh. We all know the feeling of hunting down textbooks, and even worse, dropping hundreds of dollars we’d rather spend on anything else.

Why do you use Uber and Lyft? Because they changed the way we get around with smarter technology and better rates. Well, iFlipd is doing the same for textbooks. Now you can get books on any device, with cheap rates and instant access. Picking up books for school doesn’t get easier or more affordable than this.

The genius is in the flexibility. Obviously for some classes you need a book for the entire semester. Now you have free financing by breaking up book payments into small weekly installments. But you know the classes where you have to buy a book and only use if for a two-week section? This is where you really save with iFlipd. Pick up the book for the initial assignment, flip it back after the paper or quiz. Grab it again for the mid-term, and then at the end of the term to study for the final. Now you’re only paying for those scattered weeks throughout the year when you really need the books. College students are saving around $600/year with this model!

Accounts are free and there are plenty of opportunities to earn free books with iFlipd’s point system too. Every new account gets a free weekly rental, and for every friend you invite, you get points that add up to free books and more. Since their launch in April 2016, students from more than 50 campuses have jumped onboard. Sounds like a no-brainer.

iFlipd and COED Media are also offering big textbooks scholarships this fall. Follow the Miss COED 2017 contest for opportunities to win $500, $750, $1000 in books!

How To Book An Artist For Your Fraternity Party and Not Get Scammed

How To Hire Rapper For Frat Party

Kevin McReynolds is the founder and CEO of Highlyfe Entertainment, which is, in our opinion, the best promoter for college parties and concerts in the United States. Kevin’s a friend of COED, so we thought that with the school year approaching, you all might like to know how you should go about hiring rappers or artists for your fraternity parties. Here’s his advice…

Whether you’re a social chair in college or just a concerned fraternity brother who wants to have fun, oftentimes you are always thinking of ways to make your events over-the-top and have that “it” factor. So let me give you some tips to help you be successful in your next big event:

What’s important to know when looking to book an artist:

1. Know your budget. Be realistic.

2. Have a first, second, and third option.

3. Consider talent that is not popular at that moment. A less popular at-the-moment artist may have a lot of hits that can give you a lot longer of a show and will also often hang out and take pictures. (Rather than someone who is new and who has one song, but will be more costly and less accessible for your partygoers)

4. Make sure that when you put in a formal offer you have the deposit money ready to go. (This can range anywhere from 50%-70% normally.)

5. Be prepared to get a rider of artist demands. (These are the things the artist need to perform or help them to be as comfortable as possible to give you the best show possible.

Make sure to work with someone you can trust and can show you references. If they cannot give you references they are probably scamming you. Als,o if it sounds too good to be true it most likely is. Just ask the guys from DTD at University of Southern California who lost $13,500 trying to book Tyga.

The difference between Highlyfe and any other booking agency is that we attend all of our events. We are the boots on the ground. Once they receive payment, many booking agencies will not answer your phone call or help with any issues because they have gotten paid. Not with Highlyfe, as they make sure that a representative flies in the day before or early the morning of your event and makes sure everything is taken care of. This means you, the social chair, have nothing to worry about and can enjoy your own successful event. Many of the people on the Highlyfe staff were or still are in Greek life so they understand how you feel, and that is why they are successful.

The reason why you would use a service like Highlyfe is because we have a proven track record.
