Giancarlo Stanton Will Not Be The Home Run King Until He Hits 74 Home Runs
In all likelihood, at some point in the next few weeks Giancarlo Stanton of the Miami Marlins will bash his 60th home run of the 2017 season.

Andy Dalton Stunk And Then Got A Hat Thrown At Him
It’s almost impossible to have a conversation about the NFL that doesn’t include a discussion of how many bad quarterbacks are in the league. But something gets lost when focusing this talk on just the Scott Tolziens and Josh McCowns of the world, and that’s the reality that many NFL quarterbacks wh...

Hello Pac-12 After Darkness, My Old Friend
Like any great, late college football match-up involving a Pac-12 team, last night/this morning’s Washington State-Boise State battle went well beyond the bounds of acceptable football watching time, with triple overtime wrapping up after 2:30 a.m. on the east coast.
