Roger Goodell wants NFL players to have a ‘voice’ in volatile Election Year. Don’t believe him

In football, the line of scrimmage is where the “rubber meets the road.” In politics, it occurs inside the voting booth.

What the hell is wrong with Sean Payton?

Earth to Sean Payton: Russell Wilson is still on the Denver Broncos’ roster. There is nothing the Denver coach can say to make that $85 million in dead salary go away.

Might be time for Trae Young to get shoved out of the Hawks' nest

Is trouble brewing for the USWNT?

It’s been mostly quiet on the Western front for the USWNT since last summer’s World Cup full-body dry heave.
