New York City's Parking Rules Have Turned Me Into A Sociopath
“I’ve never seen you happier,” my wife told me one day last week. She shook her head and rolled her eyes. As I started to do a little dance around our living room, she looked at me with bewilderment.

The Kansas City Chiefs' Offseason Has Been Absolutely Baffling
In a surprise move, the Chiefs fired general manager John Dorsey yesterday.

There’s a straight line to be drawn from the Patriots’ signing today of David Harris, a respected veteran inside linebacker who had been unceremoniously dumped two weeks ago as part of the Jets’ roster purge.

What Options Do The Steelers Have With Le'Veon Bell?
The Steelers placed the franchise tag on running back Le’Veon Bell, but Bell has yet to sign his tender and did not report for any of the team’s offseason program. That includes this week’s mandatory minicamp, which for Bell was actually not mandatory because he’s not officially under contract. ...

ESPN Reporter Walks Off In Middle Of Live Shot
That’s Todd Archer, ESPN’s Dallas Cowboys beat man, just up and taking off on Hannah Storm during today’s 10 a.m. Eastern edition of SportsCenter.

Let's Stop Pretending To Care When NFL Players Skip OTAs
Every May, without fail, the NFL storylines are the same. (Take, for example, “the most May 22 tweet of all time.”) A particularly common one is the raft of headlines shouting “[PLAYER] Is Skipping OTAs,” followed by reams of copy that purport to explain why, and what it all means.
