The Ravens might be feeling some déjà vu after Week 1
The Baltimore Ravens lucked out with their Week 1 opponent. They are still recovering from the injury wrecking ball that blasted through their roster last season. Fortunately for them, Lamar Jackson was back in his position as their starting quarterback for the first time since the second quarter of...
NFL Week 1 Powerless Ranking: Sloppy play ruled the day
Week 1 of the 2022 NFL season is officially in the books and it’s time to look at the teams that stunk it up. Week 1 gave us plenty of sloppy football to process and some of the teams in this first ranking might surprise you. Then there are the others you probably predicted in the preseason....
2022 Rookie Wide Receiver Ranking Week 1: Washington’s Jahan Dotson doubles up
Last season we did our weekly rookie quarterback tracker, but with only one taken in the first round in 2022, we’ve moved onto another highly coveted position. This season we’ll keep up with all six first-round wide receivers and track their progress throughout the year. In Week 1, we’ve already see...
You thought you knew what the New York Giants would be in 2022
Saquon Barkley appears to be ready to be the player that he was at Penn State and during his rookie year with the New York Giants. The No. 2 overall pick in the 2018 NFL Draft had his way with the Tennessee Titans on Sunday....
Stephen A. Smith forgets the basics of football
Stephen A. Smith is great television. The way he casually cascades between idioms in an excited, commanding voice is magnificent. I get jealous of his inflection just watching him. That said, he’s also had a series of brain farts that can’t be overlooked. Whether it’s ranting about nonexistent ties ...
It’s also the start of NFL propaganda season
You always have to hope that the Sunday night game, or really any primetime NFL game, is a good one. Because when it’s bad, there’s just far too much dead time for Cris Collinsworth’s brain to drip out of his ear. I don’t mind Collinsworth as much as other people. He can be a little too “Everything ...
It’s All Happening — WWE and AEW now: CM Punk is just another word for Hulk Hogan
For the first time this past weekend, and intentionally no matter what they may say, WWE and AEW ran PPVs/PLEs on the same weekend, perhaps being in direct competition with each other for the first time since NXT was backed off Wednesday nights. Feels like as good of a time as any to see where the c...

Steph Curry needs to stop....

Home sweet home?
Returning home for one last season is a sacred ideal for NBA vets. Dwyane Wade made his way to Chicago in 2016. Kyrie Irving’s desire to play with Durant in Brooklyn instead of Madison Square Garden with the New York Knicks was influenced by the New Jersey native’s fondness for the New Jersey Nets o...
The NFL's 5 most intriguing Week 1 storylines
The 2022 NFL season kicks off Thursday, with the Los Angeles Rams beginning their title defense against this year’s favorite, the Buffalo Bills. Other than this potential Super Bowl matchup in Week 1, there are plenty of different storylines to keep an eye on coming out of a tumultuous offseason. ...
There’s been an overcorrection on the Eagles
It’s impossible to walk by a game of oversized Jenga at the bar and not look at the teetering stack of blocks. There’s something about how it sways before inevitably crashing down into wreckage that’s enthralling. It’s how I feel when I look at the Eagles’ bandwagon growing like a neglected yard....
The D-List Week 1: The good, the bad, and the Uiagalelei
Welcome to the D-List. It’s the Deadspin Dean’s list for the absolute worst of the weekend in college football. The beauty of college football is that we witness raw football talent being molded every week before our very eyes. This is a list for the sloppy sculptures of talent out there, the gridir...
Cavs are here!
The Cleveland Cavaliers are going to be a top-five seed in the Eastern Conference next season....
Sometimes predictable is the way to go
It finally happened and is one prime example of why I believe predictability isn’t always a negative in professional wrestling. There hasn’t been a bigger disappointment in WWE over the last year than Dominik Mysterio, the son of squared-circle visionary Rey Mysterio. In my “Clash at the Castle” pre...
Remember when James Franklin was rumored for the USC job? Lol, me too
Any writer looking to get a head start on next year’s “Coach on the hottest seat” countdown might want to keep an eye on James Franklin. Even though the 10-year contract extension Penn State gave him in 2021 is likely enough to ensure his seat stays lukewarm, it was impossible to watch the season-op...
These USMNT players vying for World Cup roster will benefit from transfer window
The biggest hammer never dropped during transfer deadline day for the United States men’s national team fans. Christian Pulisic still wears Chelsea blue, which will prove to be a blessing in disguise or what plummets the USA’s chances at a deep run at this year’s World Cup. The Yanks’ captain and be...
The Cavs want it all, and they want it now
Well, look at the Cleveland Cavaliers....
It’s make or break time for JuJu Smith-Schuster
In March, JuJu Smith-Schuster signed a one-year $10.75 million contract with the Kansas City Chiefs. Playing with Patrick Mahomes, this is his prove-it-or-lose- season. There are no more excuses if JuJu doesn’t play up to No. 1 receiver standards when the best young quarterback of this generation is...
