The Kraken are preserving cap space apparently, but for who? For what?
We’re still only in the leaked stage, and leave it to the NHL to not think that the Seattle Kraken’s expansion draft would get out before the big show tonight thus rendering it moot, but it appears that GM Ron Francis has gone the pretty boring route. No Carey Price, no side deals that actually pilf...
Run it back? Can they take a breath first?
The Milwaukee Bucks and Phoenix Suns will have exactly ten weeks — 70 days — between the conclusion of their NBA Finals battle and the start of training camp for the 2021-22 NBA season, set for September 28. And, if this sounds like enough time to prepare for an NBA season, allow for some perspectiv...

Giannis did it, dammit
It’s what you see when you squint on draft night. They walk up to that podium — in normal times at least — too skinny in that suit. They’re always too skinny.

<em>Space Jam 2</em> just sucks
So I saw Space Jam: A New Legacy over the weekend, and it’s just awful. Just an atrocious piece of cinema, and a blatant attempt to capture nostalgia money from fans of the original ‘90s film starring Michael Jordan. I wanted to wait until today to write anything about it though in order to get the ...

I thought having a crowd would make Monday Night Raw try harder. That’s my bad
Monday Night Raw was last in the pool, as it were. AEW Dynamite has run two shows in front of live crowds, and really had been operating in front of a crowd since they started letting fans fill the seats at Daily’s Place in Jacksonville, Fla. WWE returned to its normal arena show last Friday on Smac...

Gabriel Heinze is just as big of a penis as you remember
The lesson for MLS coaches the past couple of weeks is that trying to show your authority by freezing out a star player only ends with your head in the guillotine’s receptacle. Gabriel Heinze was the latest to learn that yesterday....

Really? The old 'fake news' gambit?
It would be nice if Liz Cambage didn’t try to refute reports that she broke COVID protocols with the term “fake news,” but the Australian star sure did defend herself after her withdrawal from the Olympic team during its Las Vegas training camp, for which she cited mental health....

Both of these things can be true
It was a little bit curious when Liz Cambage did not play in the WNBA All-Star Game on Wednesday night, even though she was in uniform and had made an agreement with Team Australia coach Sandy Brondello, to be able to leave the national team’s pre-Olympic camp and play in the exhibition....
