Who let Philadelphia be the sports capital?

In one light, there probably is no better place than Philadelphia, the epicenter of North American sports right now.

LeBron James dropping the Dallas Cowboys over ethical reasons yet somehow rooting for the Cleveland Browns? Who wants to tell him?

Noted frontrunner LeBron James has switched his NFL allegiances because it’s clear the Cowboys aren’t going to win the Super Bowl — oh, wait.

Cross Donda Academy off the list of landing spots for aspiring hoops stars [Updated]

Kanye West has been in the Tom Cruise Bat-shit Crazy Celebrity Zone for so long that it’s been renamed the Ye Bat-shit Crazy Celebrity Zone.

This World Series is a beautiful juxtaposition

If styles make fights, then this World Series is for you. While the Houston Astros and Philadelphia Phillies have their similarities (like green mascots), they also occupy opposing poles in a lot of ways.

It’s time for the sports world to fight back against antisemitism

Kanye West is an antisemite. And that’s not a controversial statement.
