Darryl Sutter might look like Sam the Eagle but he’s doing that thing again
Merely by looking at him, and certainly when you hear him talk, it’s easy to dismiss Darryl Sutter as the hilt of old-school NHL coaches. Throw in the fact that he was nothing more than a bottom-six grinder in his playing career, and you’d be forgiven for concluding that he would send his teams out ...

The Dawg Pound finally realized their QB is mediocre, so they booed him out of his own house
After being booed in the Browns’ 13-10 victory at home over the Detroit Lions, Baker Mayfield is steadily losing favor in Cleveland. I say good on those members of the Dawg Pound that have finally awakened to see Mayfield for who he is. He’s an average NFL quarterback, nothing more, nothing less. Th...

Hey, look over here, the Suns look like title contenders again
Chris Paul is like that overachieving student who never gets enough credit for doing more than the assignment required. Yes, Chris, your diorama features impeccable detail, but I don’t have a grade higher than an A+ to give you, and you already have enough extra credit that you could not show up for...

Enes Kanter's intentions are good — his execution is bad
The messenger is just as important as the message. And in the case of Enes Kanter, a very important message isn’t being listened to because the messenger would rather make impulsive noises....

Bronny James gets sneaker jacked by TikTok star
The weekend before Thanksgiving wasn’t the best for the NBA’s royal family. LeBron James was involved in an altercation on the court in Detroit over the weekend.

Noah Syndergaard and Mike Francesa got into some Twitter beef over the weekend and yes, it’s glorious
There are times when watching people argue on social media isn’t depressing or infuriating. When it’s not about whether marginalized groups of people deserve rights or if the scientific method is anti-freedom, watching two grown people argue in front of the entire world can be quite amusing — especi...

If the NFL has seemed a little wacky and unpredictable this season, that’s because it has been wacky and unpredictable
It’s not just you, it’s true. The 2021 NFL season has been highly unusual. Week 11 was the latest example, with the best teams in each conference losing to opponents that entered the week with a record below .500. That’s the second time in three weeks that several of the better teams suffered defeat...

Home wasn’t the cure for the cursed Islanders
Things were stacked against the New York Islanders before a puck was even dropped this season. The new UBS Arena, which would end this weird New York area odyssey they’ve been on since that ill-fated decision to play at Barclays Arena, which didn’t ever plan for hockey, wasn’t ready until this past ...

Sorry, I just don’t trust the IOC
The IOC continues to happily eat whatever the Chinese government is willing to shovel to it.

We’ll talk about the contenders later, because this list is about the least fortunate teams in the league. Let’s check out the worst of the worst from Week 11. Welcome to this week’s NFL Powerless Ran...

Deron Williams went from challenging Chris Paul for ‘best point guard’ title to marveling at his longevity
Once upon a time, Deron Williams was seen as a top-five NBA point guard alongside draft classmate Chris Paul. Now Williams is retired and admits being a little jealous of Paul and how he’s still playing at such a high level all these years later....

Look at Tiger Woods saying good morning… from the golf course!
Tiger Woods is swinging golf clubs again. It’s not at a tournament, or what even looks like a practice round, but a club is technically making contact with a ball. On Sunday morning, Woods posted a brief, three-second, clip on Twitter of him with a basket of golf balls, and taking practice cuts. The...

Terence Crawford is determined to get Errol Spence Jr. in the ring and won’t stop until he gets that fight
Terence “Bud” Crawford and “Showtime” Shawn Porter put on a display of pugilism Saturday night in Las Vegas that more than lived up to its billing.
