This week in the locker March 09, 2024

Leave it to the A’s and John Fisher to be three months late on the renderings for a ballpark that still feels like it has a better chance of being built in Narnia than it does in Vegas, and then to have it leak out a day after they meant it to: - Sam Fels Read More...

Should Broncos fans, or anyone, have faith in Denver’s front office anymore?
Nathaniel Hackett is who we thought he was, and the last time head coach Sean Payton won a ring the sports world was still a month away from being introduced to Brad Stevens and the Butler Bulldogs. Putting the Denver Broncos’ mistakes all on Russell Wilson’s shoulders is a cowardly move....

Increasing the NFL season to 18 games is a terrible idea
An 18-game NFL regular season has been looming over the league at least since it was clear that the 2011 lockout was an inevitability. What the league wants, the league — more specifically the team owners — usually gets. The revenue split used to be 50/50 with the players, but now a greater share ha...
LeBron James creates the 40K club, which he’ll populate alone for a long time
The next player to eclipse 40,000 points in the regular season will have a chance at the title of the NBA’s GOAT simply because the numbers LeBron James will retire with are going to be near impossible to top.
