TNT looks to keep legacy of teetering on the edge with signing of Barkley 2.0: Draymond Green
Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green really tapped into something a couple of years ago during his war of words with Hall of Famer and TNT analyst Charles Barkley. Turner Sports was so impressed with Green’s brash opinionated style that they struck up a relationship, and now it’s been announ...
Dez Bryant criticized Dak after the 49ers loss, now big brother Tad Prescott is stepping in for the save
Ever since former Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Dez Bryant left the team, he’s been a harsh critic of the onfield product produced by Jerry Jones’ organization. Bryant is seen posting on Twitter often and many times directing his critiques the way of Cowboys QB Dak Prescott. Bryant and Prescott’s lac...
Screw the celebrity boxing nonsense, let’s get Canelo Alvarez and Jermall Charlo in the ring ASAP
The biggest attraction in legitimate boxing, Canelo Alvarez, could be announcing his next major championship fight soon. The bout that seemed like a pipedream just a few short months ago, pitting Canelo against Jermall Charlo, now has the chance of coming to fruition by May. According to ESPN’s Mike...
John Madden’s legacy is something different to multiple generations of fans
The phrase “once in a generation” seems to be tossed too often, far more often than it should be in sports, but when it came to John Madden, this couldn’t even begin to sum up what he represented. Madden passed away unexpectedly on Tuesday but left a lasting legacy unlike any we’ve ever seen....
All this fun and you get paid, too!
I’ll level with you. I didn’t really think that much of John Madden as an analyst, at least for most of my experience listening to him. That doesn’t mean I didn’t think his personality or presence didn’t warrant his standing at the top of the broadcasting game. They very much did. And perhaps I’m ju...
These teams did not go quietly into the night in Week 13, their seasons may be done but they gave their home fans at least one last smile to take into the holidays
Be honest with yourselves because I’m about to be honest with you, I didn’t expect much from this Week 13 slate of the NFL season. With just over 1/4th of the regular season remaining, there were four teams on a bye week and the only one of those four teams has a record under .500 (the Carolina Pant...
Canelo-GGG III needs to be the next big fight on deck, but is it the best option for Álvarez?
Canelo Álvarez not only fulfilled his promise of becoming the first undisputed 168-pound super middleweight champion in boxing Saturday night, but Canelo also inflicted the pain and damage on Caleb Plant he promised before the fight....
Raiders’ problems piling up
The Las Vegas Raiders are in the midst of one of the most tumultuous seasons we’ve ever seen. First it was their head coach, Jon Gruden, whose leaked emails revealed racist and misogynistic tendencies from the Super Bowl-winning coach. Less than a month later, the team’s leading receiver and 2020 fi...
Deshaun Watson is staying with the Texans, but neither he nor the NFL look good at the conclusion of the trade deadline
It appears that Deshaun Watson will finish the 2021 season in purgatory with the Houston Texans. NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport is reporting that the Texans granted Miami Dolphins owner Stephen Ross permission to meet with their quarterback on Monday night. He did not leave that meeting confident in Wat...
The baseball is good at the World Series, but Baseball is horrendous
Once you get past the Astros merely being there again after suffering no meaningful consequences for their cheating, and the racist Chop, and the scheduled attendance of Donald Trump at Game 4, and the idea that losing awaiting-trial-on-felony-charges Marcell Ozuna was some kind of “adversity” that ...
Taylor Heinicke kinda looks like a young Tony Romo
Taylor Heinicke will make it hard for the Washington Football team to hand the starting position back over to Ryan Fitzpatrick once he’s ready to return from a hip injury. Heinicke leading Washington to a come-from-behind win over the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday was reminiscent of former Dallas Cowboy...
Lamar Jackson’s FIRST 1000 passes mark NFL’s greatest QB start ever — seriously
On Sunday Lamar Jackson completed a pass on 4th and 19 to set up Justin Tucker’s record 66-yard field goal. This came one week after leading the Ravens to a thrilling 36-35 comeback win against the Chiefs....
The end is near, Giants fans
I’m sorry, New York Giants fans. Someone should apologize to your fan base for the bill of goods you’ve been sold. Management tried to convince you that hiring Jason Garrett as offensive coordinator was a good idea. But you’re an intelligent crowd that knows football, and you knew better having seen...
Davis Mills is destined to be the Texans’ franchise quarterback
Josh Allen, Baker Mayfield, Justin Herbert. What do all these guys have in common? Well, they’re all young. They’re all talented. They’re all franchise quarterbacks, and they all became franchise quarterbacks after having the reins handed over to them by Tyrod Taylor....
ESPN’s ‘Cy Young Predictor’ is laughably on the fritz
Predicting who is going to win major awards across the Big 4 American sports is one of the nation’s most popular pastimes. Oftentimes, arguments can be made for several different players. That’s why several years ago, ESPN put out its Cy Young Predictor, an AI system that would take a pitcher’s stat...
We need some of what Tony Romo’s smoking
As the resident Dallas Cowboys fan at Deadspin, I’m as big a fan of Tony Romo as anyone. But Romo’s latest assertion finally has me questioning his judgment the way many fans did during his time as Cowboys quarterback....
RG3 joining ESPN could give the network a spark
The ESPN NFL booth just got a little more interesting this year....
Cincy’s Sonny Gray confirmed as very superstitious with wardrobe change
Hey, CamSoda! I found someone else to add to your list....
Spain rules the day, but not final result
Spain did just about everything they wanted against Italy. They suffocated Jorginho out of the game, denying all routes to him from the defense and keeping Italy’s attack at bay through a pretty aggressive high press. They kept the ball for most of the game, and didn’t do that usual Spanish thing of...
First it was very much Spain, then it wasn’t, then it was, then it wasn’t, and now we don’t know what to think
I’ve been using the term “Spain’ing” a lot during Euro 2020, harkening back to the era before Spain was drenched in medals, where they would always squander any tournament despite fielding one of the most talented squads. They could find any way to lose back then, whether through simple malaise, or ...
