One year in, don’t be fooled by AEW’s WWE alumni
AEW and TNT have both always said they’re in it for the long haul. But if you had told them before they started their weekly cable show a year ago that they’d have to hit pause on the promotion just six months in, they might have hedged their bets a bit. But, with some secret locations, a pretty ful...

This is where the Dodgers get to be the Dodgers
It’s rare when a team is favored to win a series when down 2-1. But then teams that are down 2-1 aren’t usually the Dodgers. Hell, the Dodgers might have still been favored before Game 3. After putting up 15 runs in the span of six outs over two games (four in the 9th of Game 2, 11 in the 1st of Gam...

Sports may be back, but the ratings aren’t — a new Marist poll tells us why
This spring, when the NBA shut down after Rudy Gobert tested positive for the coronavirus, other sports followed suit. It was an odd pause in what is essentially our modern calendar. The rhythm of the sports calendar functions like the movement of the stars once did for ancient mariners....

NHL Free Agency: To trade with Joe Sakic is to admit your limitations
It is perhaps the perfect statement about the inherent flaws of NHL free agency that the team to make the biggest move up the ladder is the one that didn’t sign anyone. And generally, when a former player rises to the ranks of GM, it’s only natural to question if he’s there because he actually knows...
