Late-stage capitalism has made the Super Bowl too expensive even for the millionaires
Unfettered capitalism is putting some restraints on the top one percent enjoying one of its biggest parties of the year. With the Super Bowl in Las Vegas, luxury suites have reached the highest of high-roller prices. These seven-figure suites are out of the price range for even some of the biggest s...

So much for Saquon Barkley being a 'Giant for life' [Update]
It’s official. According to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport, the New York Giants will not give running back Saquon Barkley the franchise tag. He will hit the open market for the first time since entering the league in 2018. ...
Someone is finally standing up to the Las Vegas sports juggernaut
A Nevada teacher’s union doesn’t believe that $380 million in public funds that could be put towards education should be used to fund the new home of the Las Vegas A’s, and they’re suing to stop it. ...
This week’s Las Vegas Super Bowl is one giant ad for sports betting
Of all the pop culture to come out of Las Vegas, very little of it has been flattering. From Nicky Santoro killing a guy with a ballpoint pen to Clark gambling away the Griswald family savings, and the Sin City graphic novels in between, it’s very difficult to overlook the city’s unsavory history — ...
Carl Weathers and the professional athletes who became actors
Acting and sports have a lot in common. It takes a ton of body control to do either, both are consumed by millions, and the biggest stars usually have a ton of charisma. These are the athletes who broke out of their sports and became big stars in Hollywood. ...
Joe Mauer, Todd Helton and the 1-team baseball Hall of Famers by franchise
The 2024 Hall of Fame inductions added two names to a very exclusive list. With Joe Mauer and Todd Helton’s nomination to Cooperstown, the two join 53 other players as the only in MLB history to make the Hall of Fame after spending their entire careers on one team. Listed by team, here are the reale...
The luster on Brian Daboll’s bald head rubbed off in record time
While the New York Giants didn’t intend to undergo drastic changes this offseason, they are now. On the same day that head coach Brian Daboll said he expected both offensive and defensive coordinators to return, the latter reportedly went scorched earth on his boss before storming out. With Wink Mar...
Brandon Aubrey has suddenly given the Cowboys reason to be worried
The Dallas Cowboys are riding high entering the playoffs after securing the No. 2 seed in the NFC and a third consecutive 12-win season. That’s quite the feat for these Cowboys, but means nothing if they can’t break their unlucky streak of bowing out before championship weekend. While Dallas looks p...
Remember when the Eagles were Super Bowl contenders?
My how the mighty have fallen. In September, Jalen Carter looked like the next coming of Aaron Donald and the tush push was the most debated offensive play since the double reverse that won a state championship game in Remember the Titans. After going 10-1 in their first 11 games, the Philadelphia E...
Tommy DeVito, Daniel Jones and the stupidity of the New York Giants’ QB room
Of all the moronic ways the first season of Daniel Jones’ four-year, $160 million contract could play out, this might be the dumbest. Not only did he go down for the year after two TDs and six picks in five and a half starts, but the team’s third-string QB took over the fanbase and maybe the locker ...
It's still hard to trust the Dallas Cowboys
The Dallas Cowboys finally showed up and not only beat, but dominated, a top-tier opponent on Sunday night in Week 14. Big D put a certified beatdown on Philadelphia, 33-13, in a game the Cowboys controlled from start to finish. Dak Prescott and the Cowboys took all the doubt and threw it back in th...
Tommy DeVito may not be able to fold a fitted sheet, but he sure can throw a football
North Jersey stand up! Your new favorite son is coming home from Washington with a victory — the New York Giants’ first in nearly a month. Tommy DeVito will arrive home in Cedar Grove, N.J. a hero, and be greeted with a freshly made bed curiosity of Mama DeVito....
The Giants are lucky they can’t be demoted to the XFL or USFL
If not for the logos on the helmets, you might not recognize the New York Giants as a pro football team. They were absolutely slaughtered for the second time this season by the Dallas Cowboys, 49-17, to fall to a paltry 2-8 record for the 2023 campaign. The G-Men are in quarterback purgatory with an...
A lot of NFL teams tanking for Caleb Williams already have a QB
If you’ve found yourself noticing more bad football than usual in the NFL, you’re not wrong. After five weeks, there are seven teams with one win or fewer, and none of them are the New York Jets, Houston Texans, or Washington Commanders. The New York Giants, Minnesota Vikings, New England Patriots, ...
Colin Cowherd says Brian Daboll should resign as Giants head coach to lead the Chargers
Fox Sports 1 host Colin Cowherd is at it again, this time on his podcast platform, “The Volume.” ...
The Giants got what they deserved trying to steal from the Eagles
There were several low points during the New York Giants loss to the Seattle Seahawks on Monday night — the offensive line, the missed tackles, everything Daniel Jones did — but the most egregious play was the failed “Tush push.” It’s one thing to copycat another coaching staff; this is the NFL afte...
Do the Giants hate Daniel Jones that much?
I get it. Daniel Jones’ new contract guarantees him $82 million over the first two seasons. That is a lot of money for a player in his fifth year who has never averaged even seven yards per pass attempt for an entire season. After a surprise playoff appearance, and a Wild-Card Weekend victory, the N...
The Commanders shouldn’t lose until they play the Eagles again
What is it about when Washington plays in Philadelphia? They have an even record at Lincoln Financial Field over the last four years and I get that’s not impressive by itself. The Eagles have been one of the NFL’s best teams over the last few seasons and dominant against the NFC. The public meeting ...
Don't blame us, we tried to warn everyone about Dallas
Well, well, well. I knew it was a matter of time, but wasn’t expecting it to happen this soon. ...
ESPN and other networks need to chill with all the Cowboys propaganda
The Dallas Cowboys are off to another hot start, and the hype train has kicked into high gear after two impressive wins to start the 2023 campaign. ...
