Vince isn’t the only McMahon who sucks outside of wrestling
The saga of Vince McMahon is certainly a multifaceted one. Perhaps the most curious, and most hilarious, is his unquenchable thirst to be seen as more than just a wrestling promoter, which in some circles is in the same folder as being a carny.

Dumb college kids at Notre Dame rush field in pandemic
Notre Dame-Clemson happened.

The NFL is plowing ahead, despite all logic
We knew when the NFL decided to go ahead with the season as scheduled, it had very little flexibility. This isn’t baseball that can pile on double-headers or fill up off-days. The NFL only has teams’ bye weeks to bounce around and that’s what they’ve done, on a limited basis. Which is why there’s no...

The biggest game of all that no one wins
The urge is to compare today to some ultimate or galactic Game 7.

In 2016, seven NFL owners donated $1 million each to Donald Trump’s inauguration committee, proving without a doubt that owners don’t feel the least bit inhibited when it comes to political speech.
