The 49ers need to quit messing around with Nick Bosa
Add San Francisco 49ers edge rusher Nick Bosa to the list of players not reporting to training camp around the league due to contract disputes. That’s the expectation in the Niners front office and among the coaching staff, as expressed by general manager John Lynch during the team’s press conferenc...
This is why Roman Reigns can never be a face again
You know a WWE match is a big deal when it main events over the type of match the Premium Live Event is named for. You would almost never see either of the Royal Rumble matches not take the main spot on that show, and to a lesser extent the same goes for Money In The Bank. That the Bloodline match w...
Christian Pulisic’s move to AC Milan is the USMNT’s biggest news of the summer
The most substantial story for the United States men’s national team this summer has nothing to do with the Gold Cup. Nor any of the drama surrounding Gregg Berhalter’s return to the Yanks’ helm. It was always where the best American male soccer player on the planet, Christian Pulisic, landed in the...
The lazy man’s guide to Victor Wembanyama slander
If I have to hear one more TV, personality, or Twitter bird squawking about the NBA’s top draft pick, Victor Wembanyama, missing a couple of perfunctory jumpers between photo shoots, I am going to throw myself in front of Shaq next time he barrels toward Inside the NBA’s video board....
Notorious cheater Lance Armstrong has some thoughts on fairness in sports
Lance Armstong, a cisgender man and notorious cheater with, as far as I can tell, no training in anything related to endocrinology, biology, or gender-affirming care, has some thoughts on the fairness of transgender women competing in women’s sports. On a related note, irony died today....
Bryan Danielson vs. Kazuchika Okada might be AEW’s biggest dream yet
At its heart, AEW’s working ethos has always been to give fans what they want. What that means, most of the time, is to put on matches that seemed impossible before, or that their fans have been hoping to see one day. Whatever the hiccups at times, whatever the drama, whatever the long way around th...
Victor Wembanyama won't be NBA Rookie of the Year
Every betting site has Victor Wembanyama installed as the runaway favorite to earn Rookie of the Year. In case you want to start engraving Victor Wembanyama’s name on the award already, take a moment to consider this. Rookie of the Year hasn’t always gone to the incandescent talent from every draft ...
NBA contenders might have to start holding onto those first- and second-round picks
The Golden State Warriors have been the model franchise for how to keep a core group together. Steph Curry, Klay Thompson, and Draymond Green were able to stay united for a decade for a few different reasons — salary cap increase, luck, well-timed contracts — but No. 1 on that list is they spent mon...
The Beal-Porzingis-Paul deals feel like a D.C. psyops campaign
After blundering through the last decade, The D.C. Universe is rebooting. Not the Snyderverse IP. I’m talking about the grotesque prospects for basketball in the District of Columbia. Hang around there long enough and you’ll catch me moaning about the bleak times facing the Commanders, Nats, and Wiz...
Lou Williams announces his retirement from the NBA while leaving behind an interesting legacy
Former three-time Sixth Man of the Year award winner Lou Williams has officially announced his retirement from the NBA. Williams will go down as one of the best role players in NBA history and possibly the greatest sixth man of all time. Along with his accolades, Williams also made it cool, and acce...

The New York Yankees are running out of numbers to issue
The New York Yankees have a long, storied history, with 45 players being inducted into the Hall of Fame.

The Rockets are the NBA’s most ambitious offseason franchise
After the Denver Nuggets championship parade, it will be the Rockets time to shine. The Houston Rockets’ ‘Light the fuse” mantra has encapsulated their offseason machinations since Jalen Green’s bold IG Live set the tone for the summer by vowing to reach the postseason in 2024. That’s easier said th...
If the WNBA was treated like a white league, decisions about Brittney Griner’s safety and chartered flights wouldn’t have to be made
Brittney Griner is back in the news — but she didn’t have to be. Over the last few days, conversations about women’s basketball dominated the sports world after Griner was harassed at Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport by a Blaze Media YouTube personality — a white man. What came next was a ren...
Tomorrow is going to have to wait on Novak Djokovic
Eras don’t end on schedules. There wasn’t an assigned time when Roger Federer or Rafael Nadal exited the royal hall of the ATP Tour, it was just sort of a nebulous “time.” Federer’s knee eventually gave out, it might be that Nadal’s hip has done so as well. It would appear that Novak Djokovic is not...
Kyler Murray’s career is trending in the wrong direction
Kyler Murray was considered one of the most promising young NFL quarterbacks not too long ago, and now he’s viewed in a much less favorable light around the league. After a messy contract dispute with the Arizona Cardinals, Murray got his money, and now some think they may have overpaid the former R...
Will Nikola Jokić lead Denver to its first title or will Jimmy Butler fulfill his playoff prophecy?
One of the least anticipated matchups in recent memory is upon us. The Denver Nuggets and Miami Heat. Let’s be real here. No LeBron, no Jayson Tatum, and no Boston Celtics legends in the stands. Media members have been openly grousing all week about having to cover the Nuggets. That’s a cornball pos...

Take a deep breath before I reveal a stunning fact, it’s almost June. Some of you were just pulling out the trusty snow blower and now it’s swimsuit season — I hope your diet went better than mine....
The WNBA needs more roster spots — and expansion is the only way to get them
In an era dominated by social media, women’s basketball is experiencing a moment like never before. Brittney Griner is back. The WNBA has countless storylines.
