The wall between AEW and NJPW has come down, maybe, but what’s next?
Ever since AEW formed, wrestling fans have been wondering, hoping, praying for some kind of relationship between AEW and New Japan Pro Wrestling. Most of that was based on a swath of AEW stars who made their name in NJPW. Kenny Omega and The Young Bucks are first on the list, as they became global s...
Bellinger and Dodgers’ Kid ’n Play footsie is adorable alternative to hazardous homer celebrations
You could see the playfulness right from the first tap, as Cody Bellinger crossed home plate and morphed into the “Kid” to Max Muncy’s “Play.” Belli just kept on tapping toes the whole way back to the dugout. It was a gloriously fun moment for baseball fans (though decidedly not actual Rays fans) to...

See it! Cody Bellinger's highway robbery of Fernando Tatis triggers blown kisses and an F-bomb barrage
It’s been a rough 2020 for reigning NL MVP Cody Bellinger, with his .239 batting average and abysmal .789 OPS. Those numbers are a far cry from his tour de force season of 2019 when he hit .305 with a 1.035 OPS and led the league in total bases (351)....
AEW Has Run Out Of Excuses for Its Women’s Division
When AEW came onto the scene about a year ago, it promised a lot of things. It promised a lot of things that would be different than the other wrestling/TV company, WWE. It would feature a bigger variety of styles and performers, it would have an actual tag-team division, it wouldn’t be afraid to be...
The Bears Missed A Field Goal To Lose A Game
The Chicago Bears have some *ahem* history with missed field goals, and the failure of Cody Parkey in last season’s playoffs clearly haunted the psyche of coach Matt Nagy all summer. But while this miss—by replacement kicker Eddy Pineiro to lose 17-16 against the Chargers—may not be as significant a...
WWE Had The Best Action, But AEW Won The Ratings Battle By A Shocking Margin

WASHINGTON, D.C. — All Elite Wrestling, WWE’s stiffest challenge since the Monday Night War years around the turn of the millennium, made its cable television debut on Wednesday night, kicking off a new era in professional wrestling that has already been dubbed the Wednesday Night War. The head-to-h...
Umpire Rob Drake Makes Compelling Case For Umpire Robo Drake
The way the robo-umpire experiment down in the Atlantic League is configured, it should not especially threaten the jobs of human umpires, who are still tasked with communicating balls and strikes and acting as a failsafe against computer glitches. That’s good news for all human umpires, but perhaps...
Public Service Announcement: Please Stop Interrupting Dodgers Games To Hug Cody Bellinger
In the bottom of the eighth inning Monday night in Arizona, a young woman ran from the stands and into right field, where she appeared to awkwardly hug Dodgers superstar Cody Bellinger. Needless to say, this ended with the young woman being arrested....
AEW's Double Or Nothing Delivered As Both A Mission Statement And A Wrestling Show
LAS VEGAS — All Elite Wrestling’s inaugural event on Saturday night at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas gave fans a lot to digest, but more importantly it delivered a well-balanced and suitably fulfilling feast.

The Bears' Search For A New Kicker Has Already Gotten Pretty Sad
The Chicago Bears are still searching for a new kicker after Cody Parkey’s double-doink knocked the team out of the playoffs this past season. That, in combination with the kicker’s appearance on the Today show, did not sat well with the franchise and even led Chicago to take a $4.4 million dead cap...
The Golden Knights Are Furious Over How Their Season Was "Stolen"
Let’s get this out of the way right at the outset: Yes, the Vegas Golden Knights could have avoided all of this controversy—and their elimination—by simply not allowing allowing four goals in 4:01. One of the weirdest and wildest comebacks in recent memory, a Game 7 eventually won by the Sharks 5-4 ...
Sharks Avenge Joe Pavelski's Bleeding Head, Pull Off Wild Game 7 Comeback To Eliminate Vegas
The Vegas Golden Knights were cruising through the first 50 minutes of their Game 7 against the Sharks on Tuesday night, and then Joe Pavelski started bleeding on the ice. The Knights were up 3-0 and had completely sucked the life out of San Jose’s crowd, but with 10:47 remaining, a major cross-chec...
Cody Bellinger Socked The Ideal Dinger
This home run, Cody Bellinger’s seventh of the season, happened last night, but it’s a highlight worth replaying over and over again, if only because the audio is so satisfying. If you want to talk about the crack of the bat, one of the best sports sounds, this is a crack of the bat. No, this is a b...
If You're A Kicker Who Needs A Job You Should Think About Visiting Chicago
The Chicago Bears were double-doinked out of the playoffs by placekicker Cody Parkey, who then made an appearance on Today before anyone really had a chance to start feeling sorry for him. The Bears brass seemed pretty pissed about Parkey going on TV, and now he is officially on the hot seat:...

Double doink artist Cody Parkey joined Today on Friday to talk about moving forward with his life and his career after costing his team a playoff win in the most devastating possible way.
