Did you know Manhattan College canned its coach less than two weeks before the start of the season?

The Manhattan Jaspers start the 2022 college basketball season in a dozen days. Sounds like a great time to fire your head coach.

Russell Wilson needs to turn heel

Early NBA season superlatives: Let’s hope this version of the Knicks lasts longer than ‘Bing bong!’

It’s hard to get a vibe on the NBA after one week of games. The Wizards started last 10-3, and New York fans were excitedly yelling “Bing bong!” before both came to depressing finishes. Klay Thompson didn’t return until midseason, and it looks like it may take Jamal Murray and Kawhi Leonard some tim...

It’s time for the sports world to fight back against antisemitism

Kanye West is an antisemite. And that’s not a controversial statement.

Stop praising NFL coaches for adopting college football tactics

The NFL finally trying college offenses and mobile QBs after snubbing its nose at them for decades is like praising your child for going diaper-free at 25 years old. Not only was it long overdue, but the negligence is concerning. All of these NFL writers love to tout the innovation from this new gen...

This is bigger than Bailey Zappe and Mac Jones — Bill Belichick has never been good at drafting quarterbacks

Aaron Judge to Hollywood?

Aaron Judge hadn’t been a free agent for…well, he’s not even a free agent yet at all, and already there is buzz that the Dodgers will be hot on his ass as they bid to create a 125-win team. The kicker is that according to MLB.com’s Mark Feinsand, the Dodgers would ask Mookie Betts to move to second ...

You mean the guy from West Sh*tkicker University wasn’t the answer?

There is no getting it back from the Patriots or their fans. They’d have to go through a couple of decades of haplessness, and that’s only because most of the Pats fans you know will be dead by then, and only then could you get some peace. Such has been their track record. The battle is lost, so you...
