Let’s please remember that the season hasn’t even started yet....
Deadspin wins you money*: Slam that over on the Carolina Panthers
Are you a betting man or woman? If so, you might want to take a closer look at the Carolina Panthers’ over/under totals. Right now, the team is projected to win just 7.5 games — tied for the 7th-lowest in the NFL, per Vegas Insider....
So now Jim Harbaugh is finally ready to ‘die trying’ to defeat Ohio State?
Apparently, Jim Harbaugh is finally fed up with getting embarrassed every November. So, on behalf of every Michigan football fan on the planet, I’d like to welcome Harbaugh to the sentiment that we’ve been feeling since 2011—- the last time we beat “that school down south.”...
This is what Luke Prokop is up against
I bet you didn’t think the lawsuits against the Chicago Blackhawks could get worse. Sure they can! This is hockey! There is no bottom to the gorges of ignorance and detestability! That’s what happens when you have a collection of 7th-grade educated shitheads playing games for guys who are only worri...

Under-the-radar sports you should check out during the Tokyo Games
There are certain sports that are staples of the Olympics, the ones that get on in prime time and take hold of the sports world when they’re going for the gold. It used to be that those sports, like gymnastics, swimming, and track, would only really show up on your TV every so often. Maybe you’d cat...
There are a lot of draft prospects who should have immense impacts after returning to school
We’ve thought for a few years that the 2021 Draft would be one of the best of this era, and while that hasn’t changed, a number of withdrawals should make way for a promising 2022 class as well....
I for one don’t welcome our crappy new robot umpire masters
Do you remember the part in Iron Man 2 where Tony Stark was in court and the United States government was essentially trying to take the Iron Man technology for themselves and their argument was that other countries were developing the same technology, then Stark hacked the monitors and showed a vid...
N’Keal Harry has lost his mind
As politely as possible, what the hell is Patriots’ wide receiver N’Keal Harry doing?...
Drunk Florida Man gets knocked out by Muay Thai kickboxer & MMA fighter Joe Schilling

Steelers release David DeCastro, and I feel for Najee Harris
I’m a big fan of strong O-lines. A great offensive line can make an average quarterback good. It can make a bad running back look great. Consistent high-level offensive line play almost guarantees a playoff appearance. That’s why I always scratch my head when a team makes a move like the Steelers di...
Bonds’ and Clemens’ last year on the Hall of Fame ballot will set precedent for today’s Spider Tack pitchers
2022 will be Barry Bonds’ and Roger Clemens’ final years on the Hall of Fame ballot. The two baseball superstars of the ‘90s and ‘00s have garnered more and more votes each of their last eight years on the ballot — increasing their percentages from about 35 percent each in 2014 to approximately 61.5...
Even with a promising QB, Matt Nagy could still screw this up for the Bears
When the Chicago Bears traded up in the first round of the NFL Draft and selected quarterback Justin Fields out of The Ohio State University, Chicagoland felt cautiously optimistic that maybe they finally found the franchise quarterback that has long eluded them....

Choose your fighter: deGrom or Ohtani?
New York Mets’ starter Jacob deGrom is kinda having a pretty alright season. More than 60 games in, his 0.56 ERA is half that of Bob Gibson’s from 1968 (1.12 — the lowest single-season ERA in the modern era). He’s also striking out 14.48 batters per nine innings pitched, which would also be the all-...
With Julio Jones shipped to Titans, a look back at the memorable receiver deals and who won them
Julio Jones isn’t the first big name wide receiver to be traded. In fact, of the top skill positions on the offensive side of the ball, I feel like marquee receivers get moved more than any other position. Whether it’s due to contract disputes, diva personalities, or clashes with coaches, it’s alway...
Stop making nonsensical ‘Build a roster with $10’ thingys
You know what I hate? I hate seeing those grid posts on social media that give you a certain budget to create a lineup. Seriously, I don’t understand the point of them at all. Those websites should really stop posting these things....

Gerrit Cole gives away the game
Were you in the mood for an extremely uncomfortable two minutes of media interaction to kick off your day? I bet you were. Who wouldn’t be? This will probably look like any meeting you’ve had with upper management. Step up, Gerrit Cole, and give the people what they want!...
