SEE IT: Liverpool go double Air Coryell to score second against West Ham
It looked to be a pretty tricky game for Liverpool.

Is the Rangers' 2020 No. 1 overall pick, Alexis Lafreniere, butt?
Even with the delayed start to the season, and the much-discussed weirdness of it with no fans and only intra-division play, this was supposed to be a pretty exciting season for the New York Rangers. While the playoffs even in a normal set-up would have been something of a stretch, though they were ...
Do you want to see a dead body? Klay and Draymond lay waste to Pistons' Rodney McGruder

Breaking: Lions deal Stafford to Rams for Goff, a slew of picks with a maniacal laugh (most likely)
Les Snead, the general manager for the Los Angeles Rams, apparently doesn’t like first round picks. He also apparently doesn’t like Jared Goff. He also also apparently — really, deeply, and profoundly — likes Matthew Stafford....
Yes, that's Aaron Rodgers with a case of cold ones in back of a pickup & he doesn't care what you think
Tell me again that you think Aaron Rodgers is leaving Green Bay, and I’ll show you the picture of him in the bed of offensive tackle David Bakhtiari’s truck with a case of beer sporting Packers swag outside Lambeau Field in the most “IDGAF what you think” moment I have ever seen....
Deadspin’s surprises, wishlist & predictions for a WWE Royal Rumble rife with possibilities
Wrestlemania season kicks off for real this Sunday, in the strangest Royal Rumble WWE has ever had.

It took less than two years for the Rockies to go from signing Nolan Arenado to a franchise record eight-year, $260 million contract, to trading arguably the best player they’ve ever had to the Cardinals for a still-mysterious return, as Ken Rosenthal broke the news of the trade and reported it stil...
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 ...
Remember normal? Look to Serena's Australian Open tuneup Down Under if you can’t
We’re coming up on 11 months since the last time fans could pack a stadium in America to watch sports. Sometimes, it feels like the pandemic restrictions will last forever.
