No one ever gets the ending they want
It’s hard to imagine that’s how Serena Williams would end her career.

The Washington Commanders are moving into a tiny house
The Washington Commanders proposed stadium in Virginia was already a boondoggle.

Dan Snyder’s Commanders are a failed state

The man who could help Brian Flores in his lawsuit vs. the NFL is … Jon Gruden
Against all odds, disgraced former Raiders coach Jon Gruden has garnered some support from the public — grudging and conditional though it may be — in his fight against Roger Goodell and the NFL.

More great news out of the Washington Commies’ camp
The three things likely to survive a nuclear holocaust? Keith Richards, cockroaches and Dan Snyder, though at this point it would be impossible to distinguish between the last two. Mushroom cloud fallout is equivalent to the atmosphere Snyder has created around the Washington Commanders organization...
There go the Rams doing what they do best: Spend dollars
The Los Angeles Rams are doing their best to be the 2000s New York Yankees. While the NFL is a hard-salary capped sport, they are doing their all to keep as much big-named talent on the roster as possible. They were not able to re-sign midseason acquisition Von Miller, so they instead added a big na...
