Here's who we have winning the National League awards
Now we move on to the National League, where the MVP debate will have writers at each other’s throats for months.

In defense of the Tush Push: Stop hating on the Eagles for a well-executed idea

The NY Post and Phil Mushnick sink to a new low
No matter who you are, getting people to read your writing is tough. Ever since the internet was invented, beat reporters and columnists have all manner of competition for the audience’s eye.

If you're going to crash and burn, crash and burn like the Reds
Almost every demise in a baseball season is slow (unless you’re the Pittsburgh Pirates–more on them later).

Wait, did Phil Mickelson just humblebrag in his gambling PSA?
The football season is upon us, and at least one notable fan can’t fully participate: Phil Mickelson. While you’re probably saying, “Duh, he’s a golfer,” let me explain. Normally, the face of LIV Golf would be wallowing with the other degenerates, tracking juicy lines, and calling in three-team parl...
Manchester United are doing that thing again
Yes, we have been here before. It was the beginning of last season that Manchester United started like ass, got utterly thwacked by Brighton, manager Erik Ten Hag made them run a few more miles in training, and then it was fine for a while.
