Who got the best steals in the later rounds of the NFL Draft?
First-round players are great. We love them. They’re the highly-touted prospects that most fans heap entirely too much pressure on, with the fate of the franchise often falling on their shoulders. Teams are not strictly built in the first round, however. There were a number of rookies drafted in the...
N’Golo Kante wrecked Real Madrid
When Chelsea were struggling under Frank Lampard, I was one of many who wondered what exactly they could get out of N’Golo Kante at 30. It was fair to ruminate if he could be the one-man typhoon in the center of midfield that he had been for Premier League-winning sides at Leicester and Chelsea. It ...
The teams and matchups we most wanna see for the NBA’s Play-in Tournament
Contrary to what LeBron James says, the NBA Play-In Tournament was a great idea. Because of the strange circumstances the NBA found itself in after COVID-19 wrecked 2020, the league had an opportunity to try out some goofy new ideas to make up for the fact that the fans were only getting a 72-game s...
Caitlyn Jenner is a hypocritical trans athlete who wants to ‘build a wall’ — and isn’t preaching what she’s practiced
It’s funny how “forgetful” people can get. But that’s what’s so great about the Internet — it always remembers....

What would you say if this was the NBA and not the NHL
I don’t want to really get into the Caps-Rangers stuff. It’s stupid and ugly and caveman and makes it hard to remember for someone like me why we even bother to watch the game in the first place....
Ja Morant should believe he’s a top-5 PG, even though he’s not
The amount of talent at point guard in the NBA right now is unprecedented. It seems like every team has a borderline All-Star bringing the ball up the court. Just think about it. How many guys in the league right now have earned an All-Star nod at the position? Eighteen. And that doesn’t include str...
It’s time to put some ‘respek’ on Nate McMillan’s name, as the Pacers should have
A legitimate Woj Bomb dropped last night....
Poll: Most think Team USA should boycott World Cup
The World Cup in Qatar is a little more than a year from now, and according to a poll from RunRepeat, 59 percent of respondents believe that the United States should boycott the event, with 61 percent saying that FIFA should move its quadrennial showcase out of the Middle East nation because of abus...
Packers complaining about tampering is ridiculous
Aaron Rodgers is an outdated cry-baby and the Packers front office is equally bad. Apparently, the Packers are yelling “that’s not fair” and saying other teams, including the San Francisco 49ers and Denver Broncos, “tampered” with Rodgers by letting him know that they were interested in trading for ...
Yanks, Mets offering fans a free ticket along with vax shot in latest bid by teams to get immunizations up
We’ve reached the point in our fight against COVID-19 where it’s almost becoming lucrative to get the vaccine....
Rangers are right about NHL player safety, so it’s time to dump Parros and hire Marc Savard
As it always is, the NHL is in a mess of its own making. Rarely do you get a team decrying a league’s discipline system, at least not in hockey. Gary Bettman rarely tolerates stepping out of line like the Rangers did yesterday when the news broke that the Department of Player Safety doesn’t even wan...
Browns fans have earned this Factory of Gladness
Take a bow, Browns fans. After years of torment, ridicule, bags over heads, a parade “celebrating” a winless campaign, and a Factory of Sadness, you have earned the right to be excited for this season, and the season after that, and the season after that. Yes, there was already excitement brewing in...
Underperforming in playoffs isn’t new to Mike Budenholzer teams, but this time it may cost him
With the NBA Playoffs looming later this month, and due to the perceived attainability of this year’s championship, there’s a growing list of people out there who could be held accountable for coming up short....
Joe Girardi and his Little League gaffe
Joe Girardi will probably have to double, triple, maybe even quadruple check his lineup cards from here on out....
Adidas allegedly paid Zion's family a few Gs when he was in high school. Who cares?
In a time in which we should be getting closer to college athletes making money off their name, image, and likeness (NIL), some folks are still fixated on the wrong things....

The Broncos got the best running back in the NFL Draft
The best running back in the 2021 NFL Draft wasn’t Najee Harris. And it wasn’t Travis Etienne. It wasn’t a running back that played at Georgia, or Ohio State, or Alabama, or LSU. It wasn’t a running back that played in the national championship, or was recruited out of one of the hot-beds for high s...
