Here are some of the athletes who could never get away with what Travis Kelce did to Andy Reid at the Super Bowl
Sports evict emotions, it’s why we love them. And if you’ve ever been on a team, like a real team that was actually good and won something of importance, you understand that things can get heated in the huddle, in the locker room, or at practice. Competition and the will to win aren’t passive traits...
Young artists should study Usher’s Super Bowl performance
I was a little nervous at the start of the Usher performance. The field at Super Bowl LVII had been criticized, and the one at this year’s game took out Dre Greenlaw in the first half while he was simply trying to run out onto the field. Fortunately, Usher’s lower extremities held up as he glided ac...

Deadspin predicts the Super Bowl LVIII winner
A Detroit Lions-Baltimore Ravens Super Bowl was the matchup with all the storylines and drama. Instead, we’re getting a rematch of Super Bowl LIV. This is the third Super Bowl the Chiefs have been in since that game. And this season we’ve been inundated with Taylor Swift-Travis Kelce coverage — and ...
The Dallas Mavericks did not just go all-in for PJ Washington and Daniel Gafford
The NBA trade deadline was unsurprisingly mundane except for one team: the Dallas Mavericks. Sitting at 29-23, good for eighth in the West, GM Nico Harrison jettisoned Richaun Holmes, Seth Curry, Grant Williams and draft picks in two separate trades for PJ Washington from the Charlotte Hornets, and ...
Lamar Jackson and the players to win multiple NFL MVP awards
Thursday night’s NFL Awards dinner put Lamar Jackson in elite company. The Baltimore Ravens quarterback became just the 11th signal-caller to win multiple AP NFL MVP Awards. Jackson snuck in past Brett Favre and Patrick Mahomes to become the second-youngest multi-time MVP winner behind Jim Brown. In...
Read the room, USA Hockey
As you may have heard after considerable wailing from players and at least the Canadian fanbase who need anything to feel good about themselves these days, the NHL has finally reinstituted an international calendar for not only the Olympics but eventually a World Cup the next few years. The latter w...
Kawhi Leonard has entered the chat in the NBA MVP conversation
For fans who tend to skip over much of the NBA regular season, you’ve probably missed the recent uprising in talk about Kawhi Leonard having a claim in the MVP conversation. Most years, Leonard’s numbers are great. But since he blossomed into a star toward the end of his run in San Antonio, “The Cla...
These are the current and former NBA players who need their own podcast
A decade ago, who would have thought that current and former players would be the best analysts and commentators in the NBA? A novel idea, eh? Former players Matt Barnes and Stephen Jackson’s “All The Smoke” and Gilbert Arenas were early purveyors of player-run podcasts. It’s since evolved to includ...

The new Los Angeles Chargers head coach wants to start the season livin’ in a van down by the river ocean....
I rewatched the Nipplegate halftime show for the first time in 20 years and it was magnificent
You — yes, I am talking to you — are getting old. I might have pointed at my own face in the mirror and said that when Xwitter informed me that Thursday was the 20th anniversary of the infamous Nipplegate halftime show. ...
Caitlin Clark is the NCAA's all-time scoring leader. Who did she pass?
Iowa’s Caitlin Clark surpassed Pete Maravich as the NCAA’s all-time leading scorer in college basketball — and continues to add to her legacy in her final collegiate season before entering the WNBA Draft. ...
The NFL’s sole desire to get Taylor Swift in the Super Bowl? Money
So let me get this straight: The NFL is in bed with the left, Taylor Swift, President Joe Biden and Travis Kelce all in order to what? Improve Biden’s poll numbers and alienate a segment of its fanbase that’s been unwavering in its loyalty since Colin Kaepernick started kneeling in protest of police...
Doc Rivers should focus on fixing Damian Lillard before the Bucks’ defense
The Milwaukee Bucks, by virtue of having the fourth-best record in the NBA, could afford to take the gamble that is firing your coach midseason. Their position in the standings gives them the luxury of “having patience” with new skipper, same offense Doc Rivers, and if that means trading a few losse...

Lamar Jackson may win MVP, but he's still second fiddle to Patrick Mahomes
Now that NFL Championship Sunday is in the rearview, it’s time to reflect on what was and what could have been. For the Baltimore Ravens, it’s a matter of looking back and figuring out what you could have done differently as a team. But for Lamar Jackson, at this point, it has to be tough playing se...
The Ravens and Lions have no one to blame but themselves
They say you should “act like you’ve been there before.” Well, this version of the Baltimore Ravens, and any edition of the Detroit Lions, hadn’t — so they acted as such. The Chiefs and the 49ers have, and it showed....
Patrick Mahomes the game manager was good enough
In years past Patrick Mahomes had to be Quarterback Jordan. En route to his second Super Bowl, he became the first throwzini to lead the league in passing yards and win a Super Bowl in the same season. Last year, he had to will Kansas City through the postseason by scrambling on a high ankle sprain....
