We present to you February 2024's Idiots of the Month
Welcome to the first edition of Idiots of the Month for 2024 (we may have been overwhelmed with idiocy in January, and declined to choose five from the nominees — or we may have been distracted by the Super Bowl). Luckily for us, February brought us a fresh, new crop of idiots, and one idiot who is ...
Victor Wembanyama finally got a win against Chet Holmgren
Victor Wembanyama and Chet Holmgren play for teams that occupy two very different places in the Western Conference standings.

Raheem Morris said the Falcons want a QB that’s the ‘best fit’ for Atlanta — he means Black
Quarterback is the most important position in all of sports. The Falcons are on the hunt for a new one. And not only does their next signal-caller need to be a perfect match for the team, but for the city. Atlanta is Black as hell, which means their next starting quarterback probably will be, too....

I’ll give you even odds that Tyreek Hill turns into Antonio Brown in 3 years
Since Tyreek Hill was traded away from the Kansas City Chiefs, he allegedly smacked a guy at a marina, said he wants to be a pornstar, said he wants to fight Jake Paul, aired out his former organization multiple times, had his mansion burn down due to a child playing with fire, had his attorney acci...

Monty Williams is absolutely right about bad officials missing obvious calls
Detroit Pistons head coach Monty Williams was furious following Monday night’s 113-111 loss to the Knicks. The officiating crew for the game missed a blatant foul with 8.6 seconds remaining in the game following a Pistons steal while Detroit led by one. The missed call was so bad that the most novic...
You probably forgot these NFL players were on these teams
The NFL is pretty good at keeping home-grown stars at home, but even some of the most iconic players end up with teams other than the ones they made their careers with. Even players with two iconic runs have a weird bump in the road every now and then. We all know the Tom Brady stint with the Tampa ...
In defense of bad officiating
I’m not going to list all of the polarizing topics people argue about on the internet because there’s not enough time in the day, and I typically avoid thinking about things that make me want to chug paint thinner. There’s so little human beings can agree on that we need at least one evil force to u...
Was Taylor Swift the reason Colin Cowherd's home was broken into?
Fox Sports talking head Colin Cowherd said his Westerly, R.I. house was broken into on Feb. 23, and he theorizes that the alleged perpetrator might have had the wrong address. ...
Is trouble brewing for the USWNT?
It’s been mostly quiet on the Western front for the USWNT since last summer’s World Cup full-body dry heave. A couple of friendlies to send off legends, a couple more to close out the year with no stakes, and an easy start to the Women’s Gold Cup last week with resounding wins over the Dominican Rep...
Joel Embiid's absence in Philadelphia has created a black hole
DNP Lord Joel Embiid is the poltergeist still haunting the MVP race and Philadelphia’s title aspirations. When Nikola Jokic, Luka Doncic or Shai Gilgeou-Alexander are eventually crowned, Embiid’s name will hang over the successor. Before the Philly center was jettisoned from the MVP race, he was lap...
Jerry Reinsdorf is a villain; MLB's new unis are ugly; Rendon doesn't like baseball

New York Jets' options for Aaron Rodgers' backup/Zach Wilson replacement
The New York Jets have a ton of areas of weakness heading into the 2024 offseason, but one of their more under-appreciated needs coming up is a backup quarterback. The lack of a competent reserve signal-caller in 2023 doomed the Jets to their 13th straight year without a playoff appearance. With 40-...
Remember Punt God? He just signed with the Super Bowl champs

Ranking the major sports networks from most elitist to Fox Sports
Prestige and journalism shouldn’t go hand-in-hand together. Sure, there are outlets with enough history and money to have ethics departments, fact-checkers, and paying subscribers, but the omnipresent tier — the ones controlling the rights to the big sports — are cost-cutting corporate slugs like th...
We need to talk about MLB's ugly new uniforms
By now, you’ve probably seen the pics of MLB players posing in jerseys and pants that look like little more than toilet paper draped to fit a human form. The uniforms are designed by Nike and manufactured by Fanatics, who appear to be doing a really great job of cornering the market on sports mercha...
