Kawhi Leonard thinks the NBA’s new Player Participation Policy is aimed at him
Kawhi Leonard is not happy about the NBA’s new Player Participation Policy. In fact, Leonard seemed to take it as a personal jab by the association when asked about it during the Clippers media day. The so-called “king” of Los Angeles is not impressed with the new rule and says it won’t help him pla...
Seattle actually did the right thing with Jamal Adams
While Jamal Adams’ concussed tirade at a concussion spotter is what’s making the news this morning, what we really should be talking about is that we witnessed an event about as rare as this month’s upcoming lunar eclipse: An NFL team handling a player’s hit to the head properly....
Do the Giants hate Daniel Jones that much?
I get it. Daniel Jones’ new contract guarantees him $82 million over the first two seasons. That is a lot of money for a player in his fifth year who has never averaged even seven yards per pass attempt for an entire season. After a surprise playoff appearance, and a Wild-Card Weekend victory, the N...

The Commanders shouldn’t lose until they play the Eagles again
What is it about when Washington plays in Philadelphia? They have an even record at Lincoln Financial Field over the last four years and I get that’s not impressive by itself. The Eagles have been one of the NFL’s best teams over the last few seasons and dominant against the NFC. The public meeting ...
Here's who we have winning the American League awards
What a difference a year makes. No race for the American League home run record. The reigning MVP Aaron Judge missed significant time due to injury — and this year’s likely runaway winner Shohei Ohtani’s season ended with him on the IL. The Cy Young and Rookie of the Year races were pretty much deci...
Here's who we have winning the National League awards
Now we move on to the National League, where the MVP debate will have writers at each other’s throats for months. It’s Miggy vs. Trout all over again, where the shiny, identifiable accomplishment is pitted against the better overall season without some benchmark to point to. The Cy Young will come d...
Pablo Torre (might) know what Jordan Poole said that got him punched in the face
In the history of NBA talkers, Draymond Green is top five. He’s burrowed into the heads of far more opponents than vice versa, but it’s always the ones closest to you who know how to hurt you, and though Jordan Poole didn’t say anything that offensive to get decked in the face, it was enough....
COVID may have given us a better way to develop quarterbacks
One of the unintended side effects of the pandemic as it relates to college football is the extra year of eligibility for players, especially quarterbacks. There are a number of transfer portal QB1s making a name for themselves, and a case for an NFL team, with an added year of experience. Notre Dam...
Cameron Ward is the stealthiest quarterback in the country
Cam Ward should be studied by science. Right now researchers are perfecting the usage of metamaterials to manipulate the path of light through material to create in essence, the illusion of invisibility. It’s the technology you don’t see coming. Likewise, Washington State quarterback Cam Ward’s care...

Using 'Nazi' as a play call is inexplicable and has no place in sports
The shocking part wasn’t hearing that an Ohio high school football coach used the word “Nazi” to describe a play call over the weekend. It wasn’t shocking it took an opposing team from a community that according to the latest survey from the Jewish Federation of Cleveland, published in 2011, was aro...
Giannis Antetokounmpo and Damian Lillard are about to become masters of the basketball universe
For years, the NBA Republic imagined a union of Steph Curry and Giannis Antetokounmpo. However, the partnership of basketball’s greatest gravitational forces would only happen unless Antetekounmpo initiated a desire to play in Golden State before he signed a supermax contract in 2020. Six months lat...
