Georgia’s defense makes Clemson’s offense look like Bishop Sycamore
The game last night between Georgia and Clemson was the epitome of a throwback....

AEW <i>All Out</i> 2021 preview and predictions
It’s the first week of September, you know what that means! It’s time for AEW’s biggest show, All Out. Not only is it the biggest show they’ve ever run, or their most important, but it has a real chance to shift the wrestling world in a way we haven’t seen in a couple decades. AEW could very well be...

What are the Warriors thinking?
The Golden State Warriors are straight tripping....

Mama said there’d be days like this
I kind of knew that being so jonesed about the U.S.’ first qualifier would lead to something of a dry-heave of a game last night. This is CONCACAF, after all. Winning on the road is incredibly hard. It’s even harder when you’re taking a squad full of players that haven’t been on the road in CONCACAF...

It’s showtime!
It’s time to play the music, it’s time to light the lights, it’s time to dodge the bags of piss...wait, those aren’t the original lyrics, are they? Well, for the USMNT they might as well be. ...

Marcus Semien is an MVP candidate again, and you probably didn’t notice again
Discussing the MVP race in the AL is the definition of wasting time these days. It’s going to be Shohei Ohtani’s award in a unanimous, what’re-you-new-around-here kind of vote. He’s simply done things for a full season never seen before, and when you do that, you win the MVP. ...

Hey, Pep — you old scallywag, you old so-and-so — come manage the USMNT
So you need a new challenge in a couple years, Pep? Seven years at Man City will be enough? I agree. Want to try yourself at the international stage? Really all that’s left for you at age 50. Not much left to prove at club level, other than maybe not shitting yourself in the latter stages of the Cha...

Harry Kane decides to stay with Tottenham
It just might not be as violent as we thought. But maybe weirder. ...

I think I know what Draymond is doing
Draymond Green and Kevin Durant’s attempt at controlling the narrative behind their sideline argument (almost three years ago) that happened early in KD’s final season in Golden State may be pointless at this juncture....

Brett Favre finally does something smart
Lately, it seems like whenever we hear Brett Favre’s name in the news, it’s because he’s said something controversial. This time Favre’s name is in headlines due to a positive message he’s sending out. The topic he is speaking on is significant to those involved with football in any capacity on any ...

‘Playing it cautiously’ with Dak has the Cowboys playing with fire
The 2020 NFL season was riddled with injuries. Players like Christian McCaffrey, Michael Thomas, Joe Mixon, Saquon Barkley, George Kittle, Austin Ekeler, and Dak Prescott all missed significant time last season due to injury. We don’t know the exact cause of all these injuries, but there is one fact...

Admit it: Josh Christopher’s Steph Curry diss tweets were pretty funny
Josh Christopher was the No. 24 overall pick in the 2021 Draft out of Arizona State just weeks ago....

Are Arsenal the team to watch in EPL this season?
It may seem like the world of soccer never stops. That’s because it doesn’t. You may be thinking it was only yesterday that England were taking penalties with both hands and a rope around their throats. It was just about a month ago, and the new Premier League season starts this weekend. So if you a...

Should Major League Baseball have taken Olympic play more seriously?
Despite baseball making its triumphant return to the Olympics this year, nobody really seemed very excited to watch. There were probably a lot of factors that went into the lack of hype: general lack of public interest in the Olympics as a whole, the fact that Major League Baseball was going through...

Hear me out: Willy Adames has been second only to Tatis at shortstop this season
Who’s been the best shortstop in baseball this year? Fernando Tatis is probably the first person that comes to mind. I agree with that. Who’s number two? Bogaerts? Correa? Turner? Crawford? Bichette? Story? Yeah, those are all very good players....

Didja hear the one about the former MVP with the negative WAR?
The Astros returned to a filled Dodger Stadium last night, and it was just about the circus you would have imagined. Even though the Dodgers got their World Series last year, and have played in two more since 2017 to the Astros’ one, there’s still some bitterness about the cheating scandal as you mi...

Carson Wentz’s foot is going to complicate everything, so now what?
This Carson Wentz experiment isn’t off to a good start. ...

Everyone out: There's a GOAT in the water
Katie Ledecky is now up to seven career Olympic gold medals after winning her signature event, the 800-meter freestyle, by 1.26 seconds over Australian rival Ariarne Titmus....

Lots of great players were drafted, then immediately traded — and went on to be All-Stars
The weirdest thing about the NBA draft is the longstanding practice that once draft day comes, there’s no more trading draft picks. It makes some sense within the framework of the league rules and salary cap, but every year, it results in weird situations where a player is drafted by a team that he’...
