Chase Claypool in bar brawl as sideshow antics of Steelers’ wide receivers rolls on
I bet the Pittsburgh Steelers would really enjoy a boring, uneventful offseason from their wide receiver room. Unfortunately, that’s not quite in the cards. TMZ released a video of soon-to-be second-year receiver Chase Claypool involved in a fight outside a bar in Costa Mesa, Calif. on March 13....

Tanks a lot! Rockets going from 44-28 to 11-28 is putrid, but not most historic NBA drop-off ever
On Feb. 4, the Rockets went to Memphis and beat the Grizzlies by 12 points for their seventh win in eight games, moving to 11-10 for the season. Certainly, Houston was outperforming expectations after trading away James Harden, but nobody knew how bad things were about to get....

Let's make some NFL free agency predictions
Someone in the NFL league office apparently doesn’t understand that March 17 is St. Patrick’s Day, because they decided to make that the day that free agency begins this year. Thinking about it a little more though, nothing goes together quite like Guinness and top-tier talent changing teams and cau...


The Jazz are legit contenders, and it’s not just about their ridiculous three-point records

Becky Hammon, long overdue for a head coaching job, makes history as Popovich gets tossed from game
In last night’s game, San Antonio Spurs head coach Gregg Popovich was ejected. Following his ejection, history was made — Becky Hammon became the first woman to head coach not only an NBA team, but any of the four major U.S. sports leagues (MLB, NHL, NFL, & NBA)....

Atalanta’s Luis Muriel breaks Roma’s Antonio Mirante’s soul in six
It was a game between two of Italy’s, and Europe’s, most exciting attacking teams this season, Roma and Atalanta. And it was a pretty epic collapse for Roma, who led 1-0 through a first half goal. But then some Python-esque defending saw them concede three goals in13 minutes and four goals overall i...

Where should DeMar DeRozan have a good time?
LaMarcus Aldridge and DeMar DeRozan are still San Antonio Spurs. They probably shouldn’t be for the entire 2020-21 season, given that the Western Conference playoff outlook will likely exclude them. Last week, I wrote about a set of teams that should target Aldridge between now and the trade deadlin...

One of these contenders should trade for human secret ingredient LaMarcus Aldridge
$24 million due in the 2020-21 season, a 15 percent trade kicker, and one season removed from a stretch of seven All-Star appearances over eight seasons. LaMarcus Aldridge is the veteran, stretch-four ‘missing piece’ for at least one NBA team that isn’t the San Antonio Spurs, where he currently resi...

A week of simple joys continues
We’ve all gotten to breathe a bit this past weekend. It doesn’t mean the weight of the world isn’t still turning all of our postures into a question mark, but for a brief moment, it did feel like we were getting more oxygen into our lungs and standing up straight without shooting pain. It’ll be impo...

The NFL rewards men who put their hands on women
That headline is a doozy, isn’t it?...

Antonio Brown (and Tom Brady's enabling) just latest in NFL full of problematic men — time for women to take a stand
There’s a thing men do that drives women crazy. It’s when, upon becoming fathers, they suddenly care about women, often beginning their soapbox sermons against sexism and misogyny with “as the father of a daughter . . .”...

Wilson spouting off on humanity of Antonio Brown is insulting and, yes, even DangerRuss
Further illustrating how the NFL has outlined our utter failure, if not caused it, was professional and self-appointed morality-sensor Russell Wilson clamoring for the Seahawks to sign Antonio Brown. I can’t really add any more to this than DeArbea already did, but Wilson needing to chime in is tr...

We Rank the Worst No. 1 Picks in NBA Lottery History
Since the NBA’s first draft lottery in 1985, there have been 11 first-overall picks who did not make an All-NBA team or appear in an All-Star Game. That number is a little inflated because Zion Williamson and DeAndre Ayton are just getting started, so when you’re trying to figure out which is the wo...

It's Gone With the Wins for the Suns, Who are All of Us Right Now
There’s probably a harsh life lesson in going unbeaten in a rearranged season and becoming one of the biggest stories in the NBA and still not even making the play-in round. This is the Phoenix Suns’ lot in life at the moment. Sometimes you can do everything perfectly and it still won’t matter and o...
