Ben Roethlisberger has a tell
Tells are a big part of professional sports. The term “tell” — popularized in poker — means something that a person unintentionally does that gives away their intentions. Tells are also popular in baseball. There have been numerous cases of pitchers “tipping pitches” to reveal to hitters what kind o...
The Bucks bench is in a tough spot
Because the Milwaukee Bucks aren’t getting the necessary consistency from Giannis Antetokoumnpo’s co-stars, Khris Middleton and Jrue Holiday, their bench has been unfairly forced to overcompensate, and they haven’t....
Flying Ant Day 2021: What time is the Euro 2020 Final?
Christmas in July is now firmly enough entrenched in culture that the Hallmark Channel has an annual programming block and movie release based around it.

Did we need 8K cameras for this?
I get that these 8K cameras are a fun, newish toy for TV producers to go to. We saw them come on the scene for the past NFL season after touchdowns. WWE has been a big fan of them as well. They certainly create cool looking shots at opportune moments when you’re trying to focus on one guy and make i...

That had to be it
Roger Federer never slips. However, you remember — and it feels like it’s assuredly past tense now — Federer’s greatness; it was always based on his movement. He always looked like he had enough time to blueprint several options for his next shot before choosing one, usually the perfect one. He just...

The lack of fanfare around Team USA’s women’s basketball team is the latest slap in the face to Black women
For over twenty years, the United States has been sending a team to the Summer Games that is so dominant that losing isn’t even a remote possibility. And every four years, millions of Americans take this team’s excellence for granted more than the lightbulbs in their refrigerators....
What’s the deal with Kyle Kuzma?
I remember Kyle Kuzma’s rookie season. The Nets’ 27th pick of the 2017 NBA Draft (he was then dealt to the Lakers in the D’Angelo Russel trade) burst onto the scene averaging over 16 points per game with 45/37/71 splits. While he wasn’t being put in the same category as other rookies that year like ...

We know that the Tampa Bay Lightning, who finished off the Montreal Canadiens 1-0 last night in Game 5 to win back-to-back Stanley Cups, will face cap problems and the shortest offseason in history, as it’ll be just two-and-a-half months (so basically one month sober)....

This Tokyo Olympics is fine [Update]
The Olympics shouldn’t be happening during a pandemic that continues to wreak havoc across the globe, but we’re well past the point of no return on that, so on we go — just knowing that COVID-19 is going to be as prominent at the Tokyo Games as Simone Biles and Katie Ledecky....
