Should Broncos fans, or anyone, have faith in Denver’s front office anymore?
Nathaniel Hackett is who we thought he was, and the last time head coach Sean Payton won a ring the sports world was still a month away from being introduced to Brad Stevens and the Butler Bulldogs. Putting the Denver Broncos’ mistakes all on Russell Wilson’s shoulders is a cowardly move....

The Buffalo Bills are feeling the pain of the NFL's hard salary cap

The NFL’s franchise tag is un-American
What happens every time an NFL quarterback resets the QB market? A relatively crap quarterback gets overpaid. The reason Daniel Jones netted a four-year $160 million deal after one good season, instead of getting franchise tagged like he should’ve been, is Joe Burrow got enough money that, by compar...
The Avalanche have gone full Freddie Four Fingers
The NHL trade deadline has gotten into high gear a couple days before Friday afternoon’s deadline, so let’s roll through the highlights of what’s already gone down....
With Russell Wilson gone, Sean Payton can’t point the finger at anyone but himself
Now that the Denver Broncos have made their decision about moving on from the Russel Wilson era, it’s time for head coach Sean Payton to get serious. There’s a lot at stake here and Payton can’t whiff on this quarterback selection. Whether it be via free agency or the draft, Payton is only going to ...
Nick Saban retired, so why is he acting like he was forced out?
For those of us who hoped Nick Saban retiring would be the end of Nick Saban, this idle/jilted version of him might be even more insufferable. In an ESPN story about how Alabama pivoted from Saban to Kalen Deboer in 49 hours, the seven-time title winner revealed that “player attitudes” and the NIL e...
When Emmitt Smith talks about race, people should listen
Emmitt Smith is probably not the first athlete people associate with Black people’s American struggle.

It was time for Jamal Adams and the Seattle Seahawks to part ways
The Seattle Seahawks are entering a retooling phase. It’s not quite a full-on rebuild but there’s enough movement within the organization on and off the field that the team will look quite different next season. It was announced on Tuesday that the Seahawks would be releasing three-time Pro Bowl saf...
The Devils waited too long to make a change
It was only slightly over a year ago that New Jersey Devils fans were apologizing en masse to Lindy Ruff. They had called for his head early last season, and then when the Devils caught fire they all were ready to admit they had egg on their face. New Jersey would go on to the second round of the pl...
Which NFL players received the franchise tag from their teams?

The most realistic (and logical) option for the Buccaneers now is Baker Mayfield
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have decided to keep wide receiver Mike Evans in the fold for a couple more years, announcing an agreement on an extension Monday. Now Baker Mayfield is sitting around waiting for that same call or text from his agent with the same news Evans received. It only makes sense af...
The Buccaneers finally came to their senses with Mike Evans
Mike Evans is a Hall of Fame talent. His 1,255 receiving yards last season makes him the only player in NFL history to record 1,000 receiving yards in each of his first 10 NFL seasons. Regardless of whether the starting quarterback for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers is Tom Brady, Jameis Winston, Baker May...
AEW's Sting sendoff was perfect in so many ways
Darby Allin crashed some 20 feet through a plate of glass onto the floor, spent a good five to 10 minutes having ringside medical staff picking shards out of his back, leaving Sting to perform his last-ever comeback and win, and it might have only been the third or fourth best match on the card for ...
It's time for FS1 to do something about Skip Bayless and 'Undisputed'
Skip Bayless’ “Undisputed” has hit a dry spell since the departure of NFL Hall of Famer and current ESPN “First Take” analyst, Shannon Sharpe.

Young sustained a ...
Kneeling is a quiet gesture. Bob Melvin’s decision to make the Giants stand for the national anthem is a loud one

But thanks to new San Francisco Giants skipper B...
