The Bucks-Pacers rivalry is now spectacular. Thank you, NBA's In-Season Tournament
The NBA’s inaugural In-Season Tournament has been worth it for all involved. For the Los Angeles Lakers, many men who could use a $500,000 direct deposit got it. Tyrese Haliburton emerged from the tourney as the newest NBA superstar. Also, a real inter-division rivalry is budding. The Indiana Pacers...
An open invitation for Buster Posey to screw off
As we mentioned last night, the San Francisco Giants are in full ass-covering mode after missing out on their third prime free agent. They whiffed on Arson Aaron Judge, couldn’t get over Carlos Correa’s ankle, and then Shohei Ohtani figured out life is pretty easy when you don’t have to move and you...
Pistons, Spurs serving as an impetus/impotence for another in-season tourney
If you ask Santa for anything this Christmas, ask for the Tanking Super Bowl. The Detroit Pistons, losers of 20 in a row, and the San Antonio Spurs, losers of 17 straight, play each other Jan. 10. That’s a little under a month away, and if both teams continue this dismal form, Detroit and San Antoni...
Illinois State coach's response to racism is exactly why racism still flourishes in our country
What a typical response to racism from the head coach of Illinois State men’s basketball. During a home game on Saturday, Ryan Pedon got in an altercation with Norfolk State head coach Robert Jones. A situation that was none of Pedon’s business, because Jones was not even talking in the direction of...
The Oklahoma City Thunder successfully extort its way to a new arena
The Oklahoma City Thunder are getting a new arena and the team’s ownership group is contributing $50 million of the $900 million tab.

The NFL’s 'Inspire Change' weeks have begun — does anybody know?

Golden State needs to let go of the past
The NBA season is now a three-part campaign. The NBA Cup is the opening sprint featuring teams working Usain Bolt hours to determine the NBA’s 100-meter champion. It’s fitting that this season the finale whittled down to the league’s fastest team and the oldest player in the league. The rest of the ...
What the Vikings and Raiders did on Sunday was so bad, it was tremendous
The pace of NFL Sunday slows down during the late window. Usually, three or four games kick off between 4 and 4:25 p.m. EST. One of those is a featured matchup, like Kansas City Chiefs vs. Buffalo Bills, with all of the brilliant throws and yelling about a wide receiver being rightly flagged for lin...
The Dolphins’ fatal flaw can’t be on the offensive side of the ball, can it?
The Miami Dolphins offense can cook like no other unit we’ve seen in a long time. Mike McDaniel has perfectly calibrated pre-snap motion, the running game, Tyreek Hill, Jaylen Waddle and Tua Tagovailoa to form the Greatest Show on Surf. It’s a diabolical mix of talent and scheme that’s borderline im...

DK Metcalf is the Seahawks', and his own, worst enemy
Being a fiery, passionate player can be a great asset on the football field, but there is a fine line, and knowing how to keep one’s emotions in check can be an even greater attribute.
