College football’s non-conference schedule never fails to out a few frauds
Whether you’re in school or graduated, we’re conditioned from a young age to circle June through August with a big red sharpie and write “HAVE FUN” in big, bold letters, so when September hits, the dopamine from just seeing July before a date subsides. There is a consolation prize for summer ending ...
Skip Bayless tries to dunk on Bronny James
Here we go again, one more time, Skip Bayless getting under people’s skin....
Decoldest Crawford’s first NIL commercial is wonderful
I know these days there are many people who start watching games a half hour late so they can fast forward past all the commercials, or spend their football Sundays watching seven hours of commercial-free football with Scott Hanson....
Trey Lance flips projections after 5 preseason passes in win over Green Bay
San Francisco 49er second-year quarterback Trey Lance turned heads in his first preseason start against the Green Bay Packers. In less than an hour, Lance went from being a huge question mark to the next Patrick Mahomes. Lance also changed people’s impression by passing for 92 yards and a TD. ...
God bless Johnny Cueto
There’s just something about a veteran pitcher whose stuff isn’t the same and yet finds a way. The joy is in knowing every opposing fanbase is screaming, “HE’S SPINNING IT ON HIS FINGER! JUST TAKE IT!” or some such derivative while he’s on the mound as they watch hitter after hitter be bewitched by ...
Is it time to worry about the Yankees?
Well no, not for you and me. Chances are, unless you’re in the tri-state area or grew up there, you could give a flying fuck whether the Yankees’ six-week stretch of “meh” really means anything. But considering how the world works, you almost certainly know someone from the tri-state area who, at so...
Antonio Brown and Jerry Jones deserve each other in the worst way
Peanut Butter and jelly. Bacon and eggs, Jay-Z and Beyonce. We might soon be able to add Antonio Brown and Jerry Jones to that list if the former has his way. TMZ Sports caught up with Brown, where he sent a verbal message to the Cowboys owner. ...
Chelsea and Tottenham is why we watch
After yesterday’s fracas (it was certainly more than a game,) the temptation is to call Chelsea-Spurs the best rivalry going in the Premier League. Liverpool-City might have more quality, and the best quality in Europe arguably, but everything is pretty civil and they’re too respectful of each other...
Once again Herschel Walker shows who he is
A political attack ad, nothing uncommon about that in America. Midterm elections are a few months away and in Georgia, the race for a United States Senate seat is tight. Incumbent Democrat Raphael Warnock is leading Donald Trump-endorsed Republican candidate Herschel Walker by about three points, ac...
The George Pickens show continued Saturday, this time he was in game uniform
Surely the Pittsburgh Steelers would’ve hoped that the star of their 2022 training camp would be Kenny Pickett or maybe even an improved Mitchell Trubisky. Going into their first season with a new starting quarterback since Ben Roethlisberger became the unquestioned starter in 2005, the Steelers sig...
The 49ers’ offense is going to look a lot more explosive this season
People around the San Francisco 49ers have to be thrilled with what they saw from Trey Lance in the preseason opener....
What are the odds an offensive lineman wins Rookie of the Year?
An offensive lineman has never won the NFL’s Offensive Rookie of the Year Award. Is that a tragedy? Or does it make sense? Offensive linemen rarely ever score touchdowns, pick up yards, or do the Griddy (although a few have tried). ...
Tyrod Taylor should be starting for the G-Men over Danny Dimes
It’s important not to succumb to too many overreactions in the preseason, especially during opening week. Teams are just starting to figure things out, and starters are coming in and out of games like they’re playing hockey. I try to not get too caught up in making predictions based on a few preseas...
Fernando Tatís Jr. suspended 80 games for PEDs
After an unfortunate motorcycle accident took the first half of Fernando Tatís Jr.‘s season from us, many baseball fans were getting hyped to see him return to action. He was pimping home run balls in the minors and hitting heckling fans with that signature “can’t touch me” attitude that many Padres...
It’s still a shame James White never got the moment in the sun that he deserved
Don’t worry Deion Sanders, I’m not about to make a case that James White belongs in the Hall of Fame. He made comments recently about how he feels the standard of players being inducted has dropped in recent years. Richard Seymour, LeRoy Butler — hey argue amongst yourselves....
Devil's advocate: Dylan Cease's 14-game stretch is being overhyped
00000111000111. In binary, that means “LJ” according to the free translator I just Googled, so take that translation with a grain of salt. In baseball, that string of numbers means “OMG”, because that’s exactly how many earned runs White Sox ace Dylan Cease has given up in each of his last fourteen ...
Retiring Russell’s jersey number should have happened a long time ago
Shame on the NBA....
NBA players way too excited over fellow pros balling out in ProAm leagues
It’s become a tradition more irrelevant than any other....
