There were few more highly touted prospects in the one-and-done era of men’s College Basketball than John Wall.

The case for trading LeBron James for Evan Mobley

I’ve seen kiddie pools deeper than the unseasoned jambalaya VP Rob Pelinka has assembled for the Lakers around LeBron James.

The best NBA games to watch this week

Of course, a single game does not impact a team’s overall record the same way that it does an NFL team. In the NBA, teams play multiple games per week. That is not changing anytime soon, especially with the Golden State Warriors needing to host as many events as possible in their palatial $1.4 billi...

Ivan Provorov, John Tortorella once again show that hockey can’t move forward [Updated]

Dolphins sport worst-ever NFL beanies in Sunday's tie-dye affair

I found myself getting distracted several times while watching the Buffalo Bills and Miami Dolphins’ Wild Card weekend matchup. This time it wasn’t from fans hurling ice chunks at Dolphin players but it was by what Mike McDaniel was wearing on his head....

Luka Dončić got Banksy’d — and Mark Cuban got pissed

Artists are often great at capitalizing on a moment and saying what everyone is thinking in a creative and eye-capturing fashion.

Dallas put Tom Brady out of his misery

There isn’t much the Dallas Cowboys haven’t accomplished in their storied history. Despite not reaching the mountaintop in nearly three decades, Dallas has achieved more than most NFL franchises can imagine. The Cowboys had never beaten Tom Brady before Monday night’s wildcard game with Tampa Bay. B...

Who gets 'the yips' and why?

Monday night, Dallas Cowboys’ kicker Brett Maher, a man who has made more 60-yard field goals than anyone in NFL history, went one for five on extra points. Because Tampa Bay basically had their asses handed to them by Dallas, (despite the ESPN crew’s insistence that “you can never count Tom Brady o...
