NFL award winners haven't been Super in the big game
Super Bowl LVI will feature four NFL Honors Awards winners: Cincinnati’s Ja’Marr Chase (OROY) and Joe Burrow (CPOY) as well as the Rams’ Cooper Kupp (OPOY).

Hey NFL awards voters, you forgot Nick Bosa
For the first time in several years, I don’t think anyone was too upset with any of the award recipients during the NFL Honors ceremony last night. Sure, some salty Packers fans might be upset that Tennessee’s Mike Vrabel won Coach of the Year — just as I predicted I might add — but aside from that,...

James Wiseman deserves to be more than Kevon Looney with an upside
There’s still time for James Wiseman to turn into the player the Warriors thought he would be. This is his second season, he’s only 20 years old, and a meniscus tear isn’t microfracture surgery. He participated in contact drills Tuesday for the first time since the tear last season, according to ESP...

When asked after the game if he thought the Lakers could reach the level of the Bucks, James got r...
If you didn’t already know Caitlin Clark’s name, you'd best learn it
Steph Curry is arguably the most exciting player to watch in the NBA right now. His ability to expand the floor with the range of an ICBM can make stone-faced humbugs raise an eyebrow and crack a smile in astonishment and awe. Women’s basketball hasn’t had anything like that in recent memory, that i...

Don’t look at us, China, you asked for this
Hosting an Olympics of any kind is like when it’s your turn to host a house party after you turn 30.

Brooklyn is facing a tough decision with James Harden, but they do have options
So, the cat seems to have entirely escaped the bag at this point. James Harden allegedly wants out of Brooklyn barely one calendar year into his stint with the team.

America’s Olympic biathlon podium drought continues
The US came extremely close to a podium spot in the only Winter Olympic discipline they’ve never medaled in: The biathlon.
