Bonds’ and Clemens’ last year on the Hall of Fame ballot will set precedent for today’s Spider Tack pitchers

Why is 6-foot-3 Mac Jones suddenly being criticized for his lack of size?
We judge a lot of things based on size: Texas BBQ, television monitors, people’s homes, yadda yadda yadda. NFL quarterbacks are no exception. Everything about them gets judged based on their size. Not even Joe Burrow’s hands were exempt from the harsh eye of NFL media. As OTA’s have kicked off acros...

Who’s got the best odds to walk away with NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year?
Let me start by saying that I am no betting wizard. However, when it comes to NFL rookies, I like to think that I know my shit.

Cam Heyward thinks 2021 first-round pick Najee Harris has legs of steel
When a team drafts a running back in the first round of the NFL Draft, everyone expects him to carry a heavy workload for his new team (especially when his legs look like tree trunks), but Pittsburgh’s Cam Heyward might be expecting a little bit too much out of his new teammate, Najee Harris. ...
