Travis Kelce breaks down his Taylor Swift-centric Sunday. Was it enchanting to meet her?
Travis Kelce brought this on himself and he knows that. That was his insistence, at least, on the podcast he hosts with his brother. On this week’s episode of New Heights, Jason Kelce and the most-talked-about bachelor in America dove deep into how the Kansas City Chiefs tight end went from a Hall o...
This time the Cubs can't blame Billy Goat
Though I no longer belong to the Wrigleyville parish, it doesn’t mean I have any more patience for tired and overused narratives about the Cubs. I do not find “#Cubes” any more entertaining or pertinent than I did when I bled blue. Most, if not all, should have been washed away by the 2016 World Ser...

The best Heisman bets outside of the obvious
The best player in college football this year is Caleb Williams. USC struggled with the now 1-3 Arizona State on Saturday, and the reigning Heisman winner still had 322 yards in the air, and five total touchdowns. While he’s currently tied for the best odds to hoist the trophy in New York again this...
It didn't take long for Davante Adams to change his tune about the Raiders
Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Davante Adams is already fed up with the team. We won’t blame him for that because he isn’t the first and won’t be the last. He should be blamed for wanting to go there in the first place. Adams wanted to be traded to Vegas because he was unsure of Aaron Rodgers’ futu...
Jalen Hurts has his flu game, sort of
Sept. 25 is not a deciding date on the NFL calendar, especially for teams that entered that game undefeated. When the Philadelphia Eagles and Tampa Bay Buccaneers put their 2-0 records against each other in a Week 3 Monday Night Football matchup, the men in the red jerseys, led by Baker Mayfield, fe...
MLB's new playoff system has created a wonderful, hot mess of a finish
The playoffs are approaching, and perhaps an indirect benefit of expanding them is that the more flawed teams are competing for them, the funnier it can get. ...
Aaron Rodgers is responsible for both the New York Jets' and Denver Broncos' misery
This morning, the New York Jets and Denver Broncos are searching for someone to blame for their current predicaments: Sean Payton, Russell Wilson, Broncos defensive coordinator Vance Joseph, Nathaniel Hackett, or Zach Wilson?

Whatever you do, Deshaun, throw the ball <i>forward</i>
It is, in fact, too early to make a definitive call on the massive contract the Cleveland Browns handed Deshaun Watson, the team’s latest and most spectacular Hail Mary attempt at finally landing on a franchise signal caller....
We don’t want to know where Brock Purdy keeps that horseshoe hidden
The most annoying thing about Brock Purdy, and there’s more than a few, is the idea that the Niners planned all of this. ...
Buddy Hield is the type of player who could tilt the odds in a contender’s favor
If there’s any NBA trading block resident who deserves to transition to a contender this season, it’s not James Harden or Damian Lillard, it’s newcomer Buddy Hield. At least Dame Time has advanced to the brink of a Conference Finals. Hield has never even sailed the postseason waters. His 548 games p...
The NFL’s new flex rules are helpless against this season’s national TV slate
There are so many more interesting teams than the New York Jets and Giants, Denver Broncos, and Chicago Bears, but from now through Thanksgiving, NFL fans will be subjected to those franchises 13 times on national TV. It’s early, and there’s still time to course correct, yet after just two weeks, th...
The Denver Broncos are picking up where they left off last year
New Denver Broncos head coach Sean Payton’s tenure in the Mile High City is off to a rocky start. His team lost the first two games of the season by a combined three points against Las Vegas and Washington, respectively. The offense looks to be moving in the right direction under Payton, but now the...
Just how far can the Orioles go?
It would be folly to pin too much on just a handful of games, no matter how good the Baltimore Orioles have looked. But then again, October doesn’t really adhere to trends or reason or logic either. When you get to this point in the season and try to look forward, you can throw darts at stardust, an...
Deshaun Watson rewards Cleveland Browns by also being awful <i>on</i> the field
In 2022, the Cleveland Browns sent three first-round picks, a third-round pick, and two fourth-round picks to the Houston Texans to acquire quarterback Deshaun Watson, whom they promptly rewarded with a fully guaranteed, five-year, $230 million deal. Not only that, the franchise stood by him during ...
<i>Winning Time</i> is the latest casualty of David Zaslav’s sports media bloodbath at WBD
On Monday, the guillotine hovering over HBO’s Winning Time finally dropped when the series joined a growing collection of shows canceled by the network. Declining ratings and criticism from its stars, who insisted that Adam McKay’s Lakers series based on Jeff Pearlman’s biographical account, turned ...

‘Missing’ former NFL player Sergio Brown is posting bizarre videos from Mexico following his mother’s murder
At least one part of the mystery surrounding former Patriot and journeyman safety Sergio Brown is solved.
