SEE IT: Haitian goalkeeper lives out every netminder’s worst nightmare
Have you ever messed up an easy task — like decorating your dining table for guests but then realizing the pieces on the table aren’t symmetrical? Then, in a desperate attempt to fix your mistake, you accidentally knock over all the plates, breaking your fine china and leaving you a slobbering mess?...

I’ve got a problem with Trevor Bauer’s latest Twitter rant
I’ve almost always been a Trevor Bauer defender. I don’t approve of his online harassment of women. No one should. It’s awful. However, I have taken Bauer’s side in other moments of his career. Baseball old-heads bashed him when he threw a gameball over the center field fence in a fit of rage. I was...

That’s what Paul Pogba is supposed to be
It’s always difficult analyzing or discussing Paul Pogba. I’ve found myself on both sides of it just in the past year or two. How good was he at Juventus? Isn’t it easier to play when Claudio Marchisio is doing some of your running and Andrea Pirlo is there to spread passes to you? Maybe, but eight ...

Kevin Durant: Solo artist
We’ve never seen Kevin Durant do it on his own. It’s often felt like he needed a complementary piece to excel — or at least that’s the prevailing stigma. In Oklahoma City, he had Russell Westbrook and James Harden. In Golden State, he was second to Steph Curry. Sure, he has his ring (for which most ...

Can we please just pick the 15 best players for All-NBA teams?
Every year, some worthy players are left off the three different All-NBA teams and Twitter goes into an uproar. Sadly, what makes it even worse is that now these All-NBA selections are impacting player’s money. Just ask Donovan Mitchell and Jayson Tatum, who are undoubtedly two of the Top 15 players...

All this ‘sticky stuff’ talk has gotten out of hand
Tyler Glasnow isn’t wrong that Major League Baseball has done a poor job in executing its crackdown on sticky stuff....

Giannis is going to wear this one, no matter how the rest of this series goes
The Bucks might still win this series. Getting harder to see how, as Kyrie Irving could be back for Games 6 and/or 7 and James Harden might actually gain the use of a second leg. And even if neither of those things happen, they still found a way in Game 5. And it’s not that Giannis Antetokounmpo was...

HEAR ME OUT: The Yankees should look to deal Aaron Judge
As the MLB season marches on, the Hot Stove heats up. The trade deadline is still a month-and-a-half away, but the rumors have already started flying. Names are being dropped. Fans are giving hot takes, and MLB clubs straddling the line between playoff contenders and pretenders are trying to decide ...

X marks the discontent
There’s little question that Xavien Howard is one of the best cornerbacks in the NFL. He had 10 — TEN — interceptions last season. He’s a corner any team would be lucky to have. Fortunately for Dolphins fans, he’s theirs, in theory, until after the 2024 season. He is, however, not real happy....

Deadspin presents: Madden old GOAT/young GOAT combos
On Monday, the NFL posted a video teasing a forthcoming announcement in regards to their Madden 22 cover. The social media post suggests that the announcement will be shared at 10 a.m. Thursday. ...

Rüdiger HUNGRY!
I bet, my fellow footyphiles, that we thought we were done with international tournaments including players nibbling on each other, what with Luis Suarez not involved in the European Championships and probably too old for the next World Cup. And Copa America has bigger problems, though I suppose we ...

We’re just gonna rerun our last two headlines about Copa America in Brazil
If you thought having a massive soccer tournament switched to a country governed by a corrupt dickhead in the span of less than two weeks was a really bad idea, well you can pat yourself on the back. You were right. Copa America has been everything we sadly thought it would be and it’s only three da...

1-2-3, All Lives Matter! — Drew Brees joins Mike Tirico to call football games
After Breonna Taylor, Ahmaud Arbery, and George Floyd had all been murdered, and before Jacob Blake got shot in the back seven times, the NFL began its 2020 season on a Thursday night in Kansas City, where the limited number of fans in the stands decided to boo a moment of unity....

Stop it! Cam is best option for Patriots this season
Apparently nobody has any idea what’s going on with the quarterback position in New England, as different reporters at the same practices are saying different things. The Patriots took Michael McCorkle Jones with the No. 15 overall pick in April’s NFL Draft, and still have incumbent Cam Newton under...

Have we, as a society, moved past the need for wallets?
Everyone has a wallet… right? Well, apparently not....
