Is the NFL dodging concussion payouts by holding Black players to a lower cognitive standard?
It should be no surprise to anyone when the NFL is accused of doing something racist. The league’s track record speaks for itself....
The Canadiens might finally be relevant again
The Montreal Canadiens are the most important team in the NHL. If you don’t believe it, just ask them or any one of their fans. When scrolling through your NHL.TV or Center Ice package, you have to make sure to add 12 minutes to any scheduled start time for games in Montreal, thanks to whatever preg...
Connor McDavid is once again running into an Oilers-shaped wall
Perhaps we should find comfort in the normality of it, given the angry seas that is this point in human history. Any recognizable port can feel like home right now, anything to lash the ship to feeling like a savior. And that’s as far as I can take my ship/seas metaphors. But here we are, and even i...
Tom Brady epitomizes the, “Ugh, I hate that guy,’ sentiment in sports fans … but, why?
Sports fans are a weird bunch. I know this, because I am one. As we grow, it’s important to analyze our own thoughts and biases, and why we feel the way we do about things. The way we feel about teams and players should be no different. How many times have you had a conversation about an athlete or ...

Phillies forced to bring back J.T. Realmuto because they made a decade’s worth of mistakes
The Phillies acted as if the franchise — which has lost more games than any professional team in the world of sports since its inception — didn’t have to bring back J.T. Realmuto. However, the 138-year old organization with just two World Series championships to its credit, had no choice. After trad...
NFL doesn't give Black QBs the same opportunities
In football, there is no position more coveted than that of the starting quarterback. The quarterback is the leader, the facilitator, the field general for an offense. He is the engine that makes the team go. It is on his shoulders — literally — to determine the production and success of a football ...
Pregame warmup oopsie sends Isles’ Varlamov to the training room, offers Ilya Sorokin long-awaited NHL debut
Hockey warmups always have a little bit of danger to them, with every player on the ice having their own puck, and everyone skating around all at once — but it’s really organized chaos. It’s not like everyone is shooting on the goalie at the same time....
Historic Robert Saleh hire sparks loooong-lost feeling of hope for this Jets fan
I do not understand. This does not compute. It simply cannot be that the New York Football Jets have gone and done something that hasn’t made me either irate, confused, sad ... or simply emotionless. I go through life as a Jets fan resigned to a fate I accepted four decades ago when I stupidly lande...

Najee Harris shouts out Megan Rapinoe in Rose Bowl presser
“I guess you could say not too many males will say they look up to a woman nowadays,” University of Alabama star running back Najee Harris said at a Rose Bowl press conference. “But I really look up to her for what she does outside of sports.”...

Washington throws away playoff hopes like Dwayne Haskins tosses dollar bills
It seems crazy that Washington was leading the division with six wins coming into Sunday, and it seems even crazier that they are still leading the division after being smacked by a team that has lost twice as many games as it has won....

Dwayne Haskins caught maskless with strippers, future deservedly in jeopardy [Updated]
So apparently, Washington Football Team quarterback Dwayne Haskins likes strippers more than his career. After losing to the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday, Haskins decided to party it up — maskless — with some ladies at a local jiggle joint....
Talking about Sarah Fuller as a ‘first’ avoids the uncomfortable conversation of Katie Hnida
Just after Sarah Fuller calmly kicked her first extra point for Vanderbilt yesterday in a game against Tennessee, ESPN sent out the alert. “With her successful PAT, Sarah Fuller becomes the 1st woman to score in a Power 5 game.”...
Please don't let Keyontae Johnson become the cautionary tale we've too long ignored
The first time I mentioned Joe Hall on this website was in my first week here, which was also the first week of the coronavirus pandemic shutting things down. I’d done some research at the New York Public Library, the day before it closed its doors, looking at microfilm of century-old newspapers to ...
Fantasy Football playoff matchups to watch: QB and RB
You made the fantasy football playoffs? In this economy? Congratulations, you lucky SOB! Navigating this season of turmoil deserves a lot of respect — or a tip of the hat to lady luck.
