Alex Cora had himself a night
It’s starting to slip away from the Boston Red Sox.

Baker Mayfield’s whiteness keeps getting him NFL starting QB jobs
Baker Mayfield didn’t do anything wrong. The crime that keeps getting committed is done by the owners, general managers, and coaches who keep giving him endless opportunities.

Man United prove a team can be shamed, as long as it's also incompetent
