We're gonna have to put up with Brady for a while longer
The masses have been speculating that the end has to be close for the career of Tom Brady for several years. After all, the guy is 43 years old and now playing in a state where most people go to retire, so it seems fitting. Brady has previously said that he wants to play until he’s 45. People have a...
Kansas City Chiefs OC Eric Bieniemy needs to stop taking the high road (Updated...again)
Here we are — again. Days after the Kansas City Chiefs — powered by one of the most exciting and explosive offenses the NFL has ever seen — won their second Super Bowl in four seasons.

Yes, that's Aaron Rodgers with a case of cold ones in back of a pickup & he doesn't care what you think
Tell me again that you think Aaron Rodgers is leaving Green Bay, and I’ll show you the picture of him in the bed of offensive tackle David Bakhtiari’s truck with a case of beer sporting Packers swag outside Lambeau Field in the most “IDGAF what you think” moment I have ever seen....
Deadspin’s surprises, wishlist & predictions for a WWE Royal Rumble rife with possibilities
Wrestlemania season kicks off for real this Sunday, in the strangest Royal Rumble WWE has ever had. At least it will be, with only manufactured crowd noise, no live audience, and the possibility of any kind of theatrical goofiness they can think of possible. The rumors of a prerecorded finish or fin...
Tom Brady epitomizes the, “Ugh, I hate that guy,’ sentiment in sports fans … but, why?
Sports fans are a weird bunch. I know this, because I am one. As we grow, it’s important to analyze our own thoughts and biases, and why we feel the way we do about things. The way we feel about teams and players should be no different. How many times have you had a conversation about an athlete or ...

With A-Rod and Big Papi on ballot next year, gatekeepers of Cooperstown will face a reckoning
Just as most writers want, to get the affirmation they apparently crave by denying millionaires access to a club, no one will enter the Baseball Hall of Fame this summer. Once again, they have kept the sanctuary safe from the heathen of Barry Bonds and Roger Clemens, as they see it. They won’t get t...
Amid Shaq-Donovan Mitchell beef, Utah House passes resolution that <i>Kazaam</i> sucked
In today’s “sports are hilarious” moment, the Utah House of Representatives decided to actually hear, and vote, on a resolution “honoring Donovan Mitchell over Shaquille O’Neal,” which also included naming “Spida” the official state arachnid. Apparently, elected officials decided that young Jazz sta...
Aaron Rodgers is in the middle of a midlife crisis
The end of any season sends every player into a reflective period. Well, except for maybe Gronk. So let’s say it sends every player who can spell “reflective” into a reflective period. Months of work, hours of anticipation, to what ends up being the last game, and the assuredness that it all led to ...

NFL doesn't give Black QBs the same opportunities
In football, there is no position more coveted than that of the starting quarterback. The quarterback is the leader, the facilitator, the field general for an offense. He is the engine that makes the team go. It is on his shoulders — literally — to determine the production and success of a football ...

Tony Romo is a pox on all our houses
The Browns and Chiefs played a very good, entertaining, tense playoff game. It was close, came down to the last possession, and ended on one of the ballsier calls a head coach has made in a long time. It was nearly dreamland for the Browns, and the Chiefs were able to survive having the most importa...
