Trevon Moehrig deserves more respect than what he’s getting
We are more than halfway through the NFL season, and we’re finally starting to get a grasp on which rookies are for real. On offense, after a preseason filled with skepticism, Bengals’ receiver Ja’Marr Chase has shown that we were all worried over nothing. He’s been incredible. Mac Jones has put the...

I, Diallo? [Updated]
How does the saying go? If you don’t know history, you’re bound to hire a couple goons to take a tire iron to your competition?...
Are the Golden Knights too hurt to trade for Jack Eichel?
The NHL’s biggest on-ice soap opera, the Jack Eichel trade derby, appears to have rounded the final turn. Last night, ESPN’s Emily Kaplan said that the Calgary Flames and Vegas Golden Knights are the finalists. Both teams are fine with the neck procedure Eichel wants but that the Sabres wouldn’t all...
‘Joakim Noah Night’ in Chicago is well-deserved
He is a fan favorite in Chicago, yet never came close to averaging 20 points per game....
Tyler Herro “unwittingly” spirals shade
I’ve wondered about something in sports for a while now, and it just happened again and left me massaging my temples. When heaping praise upon one individual, you don’t need to disparage another in the process of doing so. ...
NFL owners have a fixer — his name is Roger Goodell
Ray Donovan. Olivia Pope. Roger Goodell. ...
For one moment, Carli Lloyd had it all
It’s strange. For all the absolute world-class players the USWNT has had, and still does, we still think of them as a “team.” Maybe that’s a testament to their absurd depth, and their dedication to being the best as a unit, that we rarely single one out. Megan Rapinoe may have won Player of the Tour...
Those who don't know their history (from earlier in the day) are doomed to repeat it
Banner day for commissioners all around, as Roger Goodell couldn’t wait to get his whole foot in his mouth and possibly brain as well. Goodell announced that the investigation into the WFT’s culture won’t be released publicly other than a summary. This was on the same day, the SAME DAY, that an NHL ...
Ime Udoka announces his presence with authority
Boston Celtics first-year head coach Ime Udoka isn’t wasting any time making his mark on this team. During Boston’s preseason finale against the Miami Heat, forward Grant Williams decided to argue a foul call with an official, allowing the Heat’s Bam Adebayo to beat him back down the court for an ea...
2021 NBA Southeast Division Preview: The Hawks are going to break your heart
The Atlanta Hawks appeared in the franchise’s second Eastern Conference Finals last season, and their fans are preparing for what they think could be another long playoff run this year. In 2015-16, the Hawks ran into LeBron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers in the East Finals, resulting in a 4-0 Cav...
No Tyler Herro, you should not be in Luka, Trae, or Ja’s category
Yesterday, Miami Heat guard Tyler Herro made an appearance on a podcast and talked about how he views himself as an NBA talent. Herro responded claiming that he believes he should be in the conversation as the other young up-and-comers in the league with the potential to be All-Stars or superstars. ...
Chris Bosh brought evolution to the game, but was robbed of seeing it through
There’s a chance Chris Bosh could still be an active NBA player right now....
Stop heckling the Astros? No, I don’t think I will, Joey Votto
Yesterday, six-time All-Star and 2010 National League MVP Joey Votto made an appearance on The Dan Patrick Show to talk about his home run streak, the social obligations that go on when a runner reaches first base, and how the game of baseball has changed during Votto’s career, among many other topi...
The Miami Heat are going for it again, and whether or not you think it’ll work doesn’t matter
It’s the annual time of year where people get instantly overly fixated on whether or not things will work well before they even happen. For example, the day before NBA free agency began, reports surfaced about Kyle Lowry being signed and traded from the Toronto Raptors to the Miami Heat as soon as i...
The USWNT is put out of its misery
The U.S. wouldn’t have had much argument if they’d eaten it against the Dutch. And if Lieke Martens had hit the penalty that Jessie Fleming did today, instead of her tribute to English penalty taking, they probably would have. They can feel a little more hard done by losing this game to Canada, givi...
The USWNT never got out of second gear, but was that by design?
At the top, it should be stated that there were plenty of reasons for the U.S. Women’s National Team to never take their foot off the brakes this morning against Australia. Going balls-out wouldn’t have won them the group, with Sweden getting their gimme against New Zealand at the same time. No matt...
Deadspin fixes NBA free agency — Part 2: Shooting Guards
Disclaimer: If you don’t see a guy here that you think is a shooting guard, he might be a small forward. What’s the difference nowadays? Who knows? Do you know anyone that plays one of the two positions and not the other? In fantasy and in 2K, nearly every two can play the three, and vice versa, and...
<em>Space Jam 2</em> just sucks
So I saw Space Jam: A New Legacy over the weekend, and it’s just awful. Just an atrocious piece of cinema, and a blatant attempt to capture nostalgia money from fans of the original ‘90s film starring Michael Jordan. I wanted to wait until today to write anything about it though in order to get the ...
Jimmy Butler and Bam Adebayo continue hilarious bromance chemistry
Apparently, Dwyane Wade is setting his old teammates up to fail. And the result is comical, if nothing else....
Is playing in the Olympics wise for NBA stars in 2021?
This season’s been historically injury-plagued, and it might only get worse as the NBA returns to normal this fall....
