A shoutout to memorable mom moments in sports history
None of the athletes we talk about would be where they are without their mothers, so to commemorate, here’s a list to honor some of the most memorable mom moments in sports history. It’s not necessarily a top 10, but a collection of highlights (and yes, one lowlight) to honor Mother’s Day 2021....
The entire state of Arizona put forth a combined effort to help one couple, and still couldn't keep them together
If you think finding love is difficult, you’re not the only one. A sports YouTube personality had every notable sports team in his home state of Arizona working together to help him get the girl, and still...true love was not to be....
Don’t look now, but the Lions are quietly having an incredible offseason
The Lions are somehow a comedy and tragedy at the same time. They’re like the Forrest Gump of NFL teams, if Forrest Gump didn’t entertain anyone. Despite several very talented players throughout their history, the Lions have never won a Super Bowl let alone played in one. Hell, they’ve only won one ...
N’Golo Kante wrecked Real Madrid
When Chelsea were struggling under Frank Lampard, I was one of many who wondered what exactly they could get out of N’Golo Kante at 30. It was fair to ruminate if he could be the one-man typhoon in the center of midfield that he had been for Premier League-winning sides at Leicester and Chelsea. It ...
Yanks, Mets offering fans a free ticket along with vax shot in latest bid by teams to get immunizations up
We’ve reached the point in our fight against COVID-19 where it’s almost becoming lucrative to get the vaccine....
Browns fans have earned this Factory of Gladness
Take a bow, Browns fans. After years of torment, ridicule, bags over heads, a parade “celebrating” a winless campaign, and a Factory of Sadness, you have earned the right to be excited for this season, and the season after that, and the season after that. Yes, there was already excitement brewing in...
Terry Bradshaw saying Aaron Rodgers should just shut up is hilarious hypocrisy
Terry Bradshaw has had enough of the Aaron Rodgers drama in Green Bay, and the Hall of Famer believes that the solution is for the reigning NFL MVP to just shut up and play....
So this is the advanced class, Chicago Bears
I’ll be honest with you folks, I don’t usually pay much attention to the NFL Draft. I barely watch any college football, so mostly it’s just names being tossed at me in the same vein as names of K-pop bands. It just doesn’t involve me. My general policy is to check in on Twitter just long enough to ...
Roll Tide: Alabama dominates first round
In case anybody doubts whether or not the Alabama Crimson Tide is an NFL factory, look no further than the first round of the NFL Draft. Alabama sent six players to the NFL last night, tying the record for the most players selected in the first round by one school in draft history....
Football coach-turned-politician thinks incoming football players should avoid talking politics
This is not a story from our colleagues at The Onion....
The NFL Draft position breakdown you need most (trust us): Kickers
Sure, they might not play the flashiest position and they’re not on the field all that much. And yes, they don’t block or tackle. Well… sometimes they do. Still, the kicker is a wildly important position. So don’t be surprised when a few prospects hear their names called on draft night....
Shame on Showtime for the Mayweather vs. Paul Charade-Per-View fight
Thanks, Showtime....
What an actually good, consistent Rockies roster should look like
The timing of it made you wonder what exactly Jeff Bridich was fired for, or encouraged to step down, as it was. Make no mistake, Bridich deserved to be shitcanned for his job, and has for a couple years now. Maybe right after the ink dried on Ian Desmond’s or Wade Davis’ contract. But he was allowe...
Mocking the Mock Draft: First-round scenarios sure to piss everyone off
You all have seen more mock drafts than you can count by now. I get it. I promise you, though, you have not and will not see another that resembles this in any way. With the NFL Draft finally, mercifully starting soon, let’s have a little fun and create the most chaotic mock draft we can think of. M...
Kyle Shanahan gets real dark real fast on Jimmy Garoppolo question
Because apparently I can’t avoid discussing the 49ers or the third overall pick or any of its ramifications, I’m here today to bring you the latest bit of commentary surrounding the selection. At a Niners press conference today, head coach Kyle Shanahan and General Manager John Lynch said a lot of w...
It better be a no-hitter or these doubleheaders don’t count either
Let’s just get down to brass tacks, how much for the ape? Whoops, no not that. Sorry. Got confused. The brass tacks we need to get down to is that the seven-inning doubleheader is dumb. Not as dumb as the extra-inning rule, but dumb. The players seem to like it, and why wouldn’t they? But this is go...
With a fully vaxxed commish, bring on the bro hugs and chest bumps!
Because I’m a lunatic who thinks entirely too much about the NFL Draft, I’ve been wondering what the process would look like next week. Last year, Roger Goodell slouched in his beat up leather chair while wearing a cardigan, then read the names. The camera would cut to wherever those athletes were, ...
If Zach Wilson goes ahead of Justin Fields that’s some B.S.
The NFL Draft needs to hurry up and get here because I’m losing my damn mind....
Red-hot Steph Curry scores 30 again but Warriors lose
Stephen Curry has been on one lately, and that continued on Saturday night in Boston, where he scored 47 points, made 11 three-pointers, grabbed seven rebounds… and Golden State still fell back to .500 with a 119-114 loss to the Celtics, who got 44 points from Jayson Tatum....
Jadeveon Clowney is a great pickup for the surprisingly jacked Cleveland Browns
Shockingly, the Cleveland Browns aren’t Brownsing things up right now. Signing veteran edge rusher (and I use that term loosely) Jadeveon Clowney to a one-year deal worth up to $10 million is the latest in a trend of impressive and savvy moves by the Browns front office. That is, um. Different....
