Don’t expect Odell Beckham Jr. on a roster tomorrow or the next day, but next month is a different story

IDIOT OF THE MONTH: 'Tis the season to be stupid
Welcome to IDIOT OF THE MONTH, the beloved series in which we take mean-spirited potshots at sports figures who have gone off the deep end.

Deshaun Watson is back — don’t let a loaded NFL schedule tell you otherwise
This week’s NFL slate is so loaded that it’ll be easy to overlook the biggest story of Week 13 if you try — and the Shield is definitely trying to talk about anything other than the return of Deshaun Watson. The most coverage Watson has received, outside of Cleveland, for coming back from a nearly t...
The way the Washington Commanders honored Sean Taylor was an 'epic fail'
Over the weekend, the Washington Commanders revealed a new “statue” memorializing Sean Taylor, a former safety who played for the organization from 2004-07, earning two Pro Bowl nods before his death at 24 years old.

Thanksgiving special: The Cowboys-Giants OBJ Bowl
It’s Thanksgiving day, so it’s time to watch the Dallas Cowboys in their yearly showcase. The fact that they’re winning and making a charge toward another postseason makes it even better.

The Philadelphia Eagles have gone all in on winning a championship. The proof of that is seen in their latest signing.

Are Twitter and sports headed for a crash?

Dan Snyder’s alleged corruption oozed into nearly every pore of the Washington Commanders
I don’t mean to go down a whole rabbit hole dive into corporate personhood, but team owners infuse their NFL franchises with personalities.

Some day, not now, Jabari Smith Jr. will know what it’s like to have a true point guard
For as much tanking and general thirst that the top three picks of the 2022 NBA Draft garnered, they haven’t merited that attention quite yet. In Chet Holmgren’s case, it’s impossible because he’s out for the season. Paolo Banchero is going to win Rookie of the Year, and little else on an Orlando Ma...
Hey Jerry, quit teasing Cowboys fans and sign OBJ or shut up

LSU put up quite the deterrent to make sure the Tennessee goal post saga wouldn’t happen in Baton Rouge
