Alabama’s gonna pulverize Utah State — that’ll give Nick Saban more time to stew over NIL
Nick, stop pocket-watching....
5 breakout candidates for the 2022 NFL season
Whether it was Cooper Kupp in 2021, Josh Allen in 2020, or Marlon Humphrey in 2019, breakout players have always been difficult to predict, but not impossible. Solid underlying stats, good coaching, and an obvious opportunity for increased usage are the three main characteristics we need to look at ...
The Cavs want it all, and they want it now
Well, look at the Cleveland Cavaliers....
It’s make or break time for JuJu Smith-Schuster
In March, JuJu Smith-Schuster signed a one-year $10.75 million contract with the Kansas City Chiefs. Playing with Patrick Mahomes, this is his prove-it-or-lose- season. There are no more excuses if JuJu doesn’t play up to No. 1 receiver standards when the best young quarterback of this generation is...
Greater need for Angels sale as Ohtani continues to amaze
The Los Angeles Angels should be appointment television viewing. Two of their players have won half of the American League MVP awards since 2014. The most recent winner of that award — Shohei Ohtani — is playing baseball in a way in which the NFL equivalent would be Patrick Mahomes putting up T.J. W...
Gary Player struggling to figure out how the internet works
The thing about the internet is it’s permanent. Scrub all you want, but no amount of skin grafts or laser removal is getting rid of that Kottonmouth Kings tattoo. While you can have an expert ink over it in hopes that no one notices, your asshole friends definitely have documented evidence of its ex...
Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney are really nice guys and if you don’t believe it just ask them
I have a confession, and it’s one that usually shocks the people who know me. I have only ever seen two episodes of It’s Always Sunny In Philadelphia, and that number will never grow beyond that. If I wanted to feel like I got yelled at for half an hour, I’ll check in on my social media DMs that hav...
Jake Paul’s next match is against a legend — whose glory days are well behind him
Look at Jake Paul stepping up his competition — in name recognition in the fight world at least....

“Never argue with an idiot. They will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.” ― Mark Twain...
Bolt up, not Rampage
Los Angeles is home to two football teams — the defending Super Bowl champions, and the team no one cares about. ...
No one wants to let go
It is obviously going to take a brave woman to stare down Serena Wiliams at Ashe Stadium, where 24,000 (minus the handful they have in their player’s box) will be backing the legend to keep her career alive for just a couple more days. It is perhaps the most unique advantage in tennis history, a wal...
Temper your expectations for USC, but not Caleb Williams
All of the delusional SoCal bros flooding Vegas with USC national championship bets would be better off taking that money and stapling it to bar walls or burying it. A title team constitutes more than Lincoln Riley and Caleb Williams as it takes pallets of talent to face down the Alabamas, Georgias,...
CJ Stroud is a Heisman favorite, which can only mean he’s due for disappointment
The Heisman chase is officially underway, as sportsbooks have declared Ohio State quarterback CJ Stroud the early favorite. He’s not just a favorite though, he’s an abnormally huge favorite. According to OddsChecker US, Stroud is being given +200 odds (or a 33.3 percent chance) to win the Heisman. T...
Florida A&M fiasco reminds us that college sports are professional sports
NIL is sensible. It was ridiculous that “amateur” athletes were not allowed to accept anything of financial value for their athletic talents, except for the fees to attend the institution so that they can play on the team and be properly housed and nourished so they can play well....
Carolina Panthers could be Super Bowl dark horse or disappointment — both are somehow likely
The Carolina Panthers have the best chance of taking one of this year’s top 10 draft picks, translating that into a Super Bowl appearance the quickest in a similar journey to last season’s Bengals squad. The likeness is easy to spot. A major injury to a superstar, Joe Burrow, and Christian McCaffrey...
White Chocolate is trippin’
In basketball, a couple of never-ending debates will likely go unresolved....
