'Woj Bombs' vs. 'Shams Wows': Who won opening night of the NBA free agency salvo?

Vince McMahon squeezes fingers tighter with Zelina Vega release; how much more will slip through?
At first it seemed something of just a run-of-the-mill, Friday news dump from WWE. Releasing a mid-card (at best) female performer/manager in Zelina Vega isn’t a huge shock, given how WWE has trimmed its roster during the pandemic despite record profits. While Vega was an excellent manager, and the ...

Everything is going badly for Tom Brady

Why the hell are the Gold Gloves being announced tonight?
The Gold Glove awards this year are entirely based on a statistical formula, much to the chagrin of Cardinals catcher Yadier Molina, who felt that voters would have judged him on his reputation and given him a 10th victory, even though he didn’t rate out among the top three defensive catchers in his...

The winter sports and their summer bubbles return to us this weekend, because we’re descending into the Upside-Down.
