Stop heckling the Astros? No, I don’t think I will, Joey Votto
Yesterday, six-time All-Star and 2010 National League MVP Joey Votto made an appearance on The Dan Patrick Show to talk about his home run streak, the social obligations that go on when a runner reaches first base, and how the game of baseball has changed during Votto’s career, among many other topi...
The only thing certain about this upcoming NFL season is that Falcons and Cowboys fans will cry

Solution for Roger Goodell and the NFL: Blackball anti-vaxxers like you did Colin Kaepernick
Colin Kaepernick was — and is still — blackballed from the NFL because he wanted police to stop shooting Black people. Anti-vaxxers in the NFL are whining because they don’t want to get a shot that could potentially save their lives. These are two problems that Roger Goodell and the NFL want no part...
Hey, so uhh, if you bet Barca to win La Liga this season…
You may want to go ahead and tear those tickets up. Or not, because as with anything concerning Barcelona, Lionel Messi, and La Liga, nothing is ever quite as it seems....
J.R. Richard was so much more than a pitcher who lost it all in the blink of an eye
J.R. Richard, one of the most intimidating pitchers in baseball history and one of its most tragic tales, died on Wednesday, it was confirmed by the Houston Astros. He was 71....
This wasn’t such a good idea, but we knew that
While we’ve all been distracted by watching Olympians from around the world set new records on the athletic field, COVID has been setting some records of its own....
Bryson DeChambeau’s ignorance is staggering
Everything Bryson DeChambeau said is wrong. Every. Thing. Which you knew, because most everything he says while on the PGA Tour is idiotic. But after returning from Japan and testing positive for COVID he’s the perfect example of how this nation is held back by uninformed, ignorant chewed boogers....
Why is this trade allowed to happen?
It’s not official, and the NFL still has time to act before it becomes so. Not that it will, and Roger Goodell will get that blank look with the pursed lips that he always gets when he’s asked anything resembling a tough question and all the wires in his brain fizzle and short. If you look into his ...
Um, YIKES, Max Caster
We all know heels need heat. And I get it, AEW is supposed to be the alternative to WWE for “real” wrestling fans, the ones who long for a return to the grittier, TV-14-rated Attitude Era. But there are a bunch of fans (read: women) who don’t want to go back to the Attitude Era, a time when women we...
We aren’t talking about Luka Dončić and Slovenia’s Olympic run enough
Do y’all even realize how abnormal this is? ...

The Knicks’ low-risk offseason is a smart long-term strategy
Is it a coincidence that The LOX and Dipset had a classic Verzuz at MSG Theater less than 12 hours before Kemba Walker agreed to a deal with the New York Knicks? Probably not....

The Hawks just helped secure their core for the next 4-5 years. And who knows where the ceiling is....
Didja hear the one about the former MVP with the negative WAR?
The Astros returned to a filled Dodger Stadium last night, and it was just about the circus you would have imagined. Even though the Dodgers got their World Series last year, and have played in two more since 2017 to the Astros’ one, there’s still some bitterness about the cheating scandal as you mi...
Study shows NCAA has been holding back women’s sports
We need to think about the lies we’ve been told about women’s sports. That no one wants to watch us play. That the markets don’t support our success. That we should be grateful that they let us in the gym....

So how will the NHL, official partner of PointsBet, Bally’s, and MGM Resorts, handle Evander Kane?
Gambling on your own team’s games has always been the biggest line to cross in team sports. It’s why Pete Rose is still out of the Hall of Fame and probably always will be (though, being pretty much the same unrepentant asshole he was on the field doesn’t help his cause much). While it’s certainly b...
The Miami Heat are going for it again, and whether or not you think it’ll work doesn’t matter
It’s the annual time of year where people get instantly overly fixated on whether or not things will work well before they even happen. For example, the day before NBA free agency began, reports surfaced about Kyle Lowry being signed and traded from the Toronto Raptors to the Miami Heat as soon as i...
