Doug Gottlieb is a moron
Doug Gottlieb has made some moronic statements in his time as a sports personality.

Tom Brady launching new clothing line that has all the personality of Tom Brady
Tom Brady is veering into a delusional confidence lane shared with Brain from Pinky and The Brain.

This 17-game NFL schedule is terrible, just like the process of trying to buy Air Jordans
With the world trying to muster up some cheer in another holiday season dampened by COVID, I personally would like to offer a sincere bah-humbug to the NFL and the SNKRS app. I didn’t want much last weekend, just a spec of pre-Christmas. Instead, I received two lumps of coal with an unofficial SNKRS...
It's the end of Urban we’d all hoped for
Most of the time, the things you think will go badly don’t go badly in the way you hope. We all have an urge to watch something burn, if only for a short time, but rarely do we get the flaming wreckage we seek. A lot of times we get the conclusion, but not the show in between....

Please ban complaining about analytics from sports broadcasts, I can’t take it anymore

Sorry Vegas, but there’s no way Jim Harbaugh or Nick Saban goes to the NFL
NFL teams have been looking at college coaches to fill their head coaching vacancies more than ever. In each of the past three seasons, at least one coach made the jump to the NFL after years of working at the collegiate level. Urban Meyer is the most recent college coach to take that route, and alt...
The onside kick revolution is upon us!
Despite onside kick rules becoming prohibitively restrictive in the NFL throughout the past decade or so, there must have been something in the air this weekend.
