Non-working showers, tiny locker rooms, and having to play for Josh McDaniels: NFLPA releases team report cards

Roger Goodell wants NFL players to have a ‘voice’ in volatile Election Year. Don’t believe him

Maybe you’ve got use for baseball pants in your everyday life, an...
Monty Williams is absolutely right about bad officials missing obvious calls

Might be time for Trae Young to get shoved out of the Hawks' nest
It’s tough to know when to know when to throw in the towel on an era, but the bruised and bloodied Trae Young era Atlanta Hawks are beginning to look like they should throw in the towel.

Ask not what a free agent running back can do for you, but what you can do for them
Saying there’s no value in running backs was always nonsense, but because bad teams think a ground game is going to make their garbage quarterback and shoddy offensive line redeemable, the stereotype gets furthered. So this offseason when some NFC South team signs Derrick Henry or Josh Jacobs or Saq...

Have the Premier League’s financial rules kept Newcastle from being Newcastle?
While the Premier League’s Profit and Sustainability Rules might have lost a shade or two off their teeth with the news today that Everton have had their 10-point penalty reduced to six on appeal (though they have another charge to dodge), that doesn’t mean they’re not having an effect. The desolate...
