Deadspin Fixes The Phillies: A blueprint Dave Dombrowski will never follow
In some ways, anything like this is folly when a team has already hired Dave Dombrowski as President of Baseball. The Phillies clearly aren’t going to wait around for Theo Epstein to finish his year with a Eurorail pass as he takes up poetry or dyes his hair purple or whatever means of self-discover...

Houston has a Harden problem, but it's a problem they should wait to solve
Ain’t nobody gonna start defending Rockets owner Tilman Fertitta, or as my homie Jarod Hector of TrueHoop calls him, “The Broke Boy.” There’s no “but,” either, that’s just the opening disclaimer to the following passage....

Talking about Sarah Fuller as a ‘first’ avoids the uncomfortable conversation of Katie Hnida

I can’t wait for Josh McDaniels to coach the Patriots
Most of the season, the focus has been on Bill Belichick and Tom Brady recovering from their breakup in different places. Brady moved away, tried to start his whole life over (while still keeping his 6-foot-5 tight-end Teddy Bear for security), make a clean break, that whole thing. Bill is still try...

If Canadians can’t watch a junior hockey practice livestream, the virus has won
Because there’s a lot of Canadian TV money invested in it, hockey’s World Junior Championships are still on track to take place at the end of the month. Canada is the host this year for the event that is, to our northern neighbours, analogous on the sports landscape to March Madness, and damn if the...
The Flyers have been relegated, but Philly fans prolly still won't shut up about 'em
A wide swath of soccer fans have been clamoring for a promotion/relegation system for MLS. Hell, even a small slice of fans of other sports with the loosest grip on reality, especially with the rash of tank-jobs in MLB or the NBA, have said promotion/relegation would put a halt to that phenomenon, a...

Jets fire Gregg Williams, who saved team’s future with worst play-call ever
