Trading Justin Fields shouldn’t even be a discussion

The Chicago Bears own the No. 1 pick — congratulations on yet another successful tank — and some hosts of sports debate shows are weighing whether they should trade Justin Fields and then draft Bryce Young. This is ridiculous and not going to happen. ...

EA making 'big changes' to <i>Madden 24</i> but I have my doubts

Madden developers must be shitting their britches right now. Despite being the third-best-selling game of 2022 in the U.S., the Madden developers are finally doing something they’ve never done before — putting effort into their product....

The good and bad of college football's potential rule changes

As part of what appears to be a player safety initiative, the NCAA Rules Committee is considering changing a few rules in order to limit players’ “exposures” on the field. What does that mean exactly? Well, according to reports, these changes are intended to protect player health, and could, in turn...

MLS doesn’t know what fans want

It tells you pretty much everything you need to know about Major League Soccer that A) the season starts in five days and you likely didn’t know that, and B) with only five days to go is when the league actually finalized what the playoff system for this season will be. That’s right, teams didn’t kn...

What happens when Aaron Rodgers emerges and Derek Carr has stolen the Jets' hearts?

The New York Jets are stuck between a rock and a hard place, otherwise known as Aaron Rodgers and Derek Carr.

After throwing slop at a wall like everybody else trying to figure out the best route for the NBA regular season and All-Star break to matter, I have the ultimate solution.

I’d rather get in a ring with Greg Hardy than play pickup with D.K. Metcalf

Albert Pujols and D.K. Metcalf aren’t in the same universe athletically at this point in their lives. Yet, they shared a basketball court Friday as part of the NBA Celebrity Game, and I gotta say, it is startling that one of the greatest baseball players of this century — coming off a 24-home run sw...

Ranking every NFL player's performance on <i>Saturday Night Live</i>

Coming off his second Super Bowl victory, Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce hosted Saturday Night Live on March 4. Among the many lovable characters the NFL has to offer, Kelce has to be one of the least camera-shy. Love him or hate him, the man knows how to rile up audiences. Whether he’s m...

Gus Kenworthy believes reaction to Carl Nassib coming out wasn’t all positive for the LGBTQ+ community

Gus Kenworthy knows a thing or two about breaking boundaries in sports for LGBTQ+ athletes. He was the first openly gay X Games athlete and alongside good friend and figure skater Adam Rippon, he was half of the first openly gay duo to represent the United States in the Winter Olympics at the 2018 g...

Dan Orlovsky is about to be the new Jeff Saturday

Their hirings were just the latest examp...

Being a backup QB is the best gig in all of sports

Amid the controversy surrounding the holding penalty at the end of Super Bowl LVII, rumors of Andy Reid’s retirement, and people trashing Travis Kelce for saying everyone doubted Kansas City when absolutely zero people doubted them, several other storylines have been overlooked. While Andy Reid may ...

Something’s gotta change for Eric Bienemy to become a head coach

It was another year in which the Chiefs’ offense looked dominant en route to their second Super Bowl in four seasons.

The NBA asked us to watch basketball that made load management a priority

At least the NBA, unlike some of its sporting league counterparts, keeps its CBA negotiations mostly under wraps. They’re going on right now, as both owners and players have the option of opting out of the current agreement by March 31, which would end the deal on June 30. One of the things to leak ...

The red-zone tactic that won the Chiefs the Super Bowl

Down 10 at halftime, the Kansas City Chiefs did what they do best, mount a comeback to earn their second Super Bowl title in four years. It was a masterful second-half performance from Chiefs’ offensive coordinator Eric Bieniemy, who outmaneuvered Eagles’ defensive coordinator Jonathan Gannon — who ...

Give me 'Roundball Rock' or give me death

Professional sports leagues are the big winners of the streaming wars because live sports seem to be the only thing that still moves the ratings needle. As long as the production value remains intact, the “boom-goes-the-dynamite” guy isn’t announcing, and the stream actually streams, I could care le...

Jim Caldwell having to work under Frank Reich is a slap in the face

The Carolina Panthers — who are owned by a man who claims to be trying to end the “old boys network” within the NFL despite hiring a white head coach over a qualified Black one — have a new coaching staff that’s led by the trio of Frank Reich, Dom Capers, and Jim Caldwell. The hierarchy in Carolina ...

Why NASCAR champ Chase Elliott doesn't root for any NFL teams

And now for the NHL trade deadline, which is much more boring than the NBA's [Updated]

The NBA can shift its entire axis in a trade deadline — like Brooklyn shipping Kyrie Irving to Dallas and Kevin Durant to Phoenix — or in free agency. The NFL is starting to put more jazz into both its deadline and offseason. MLB could if any owner wanted to actually spend money outside of Queens. T...
