Zion Williamson's Knee Is 'Stable,' But He Should Pack It In Anyway
Zion Williamson busting through his shoe and twisting his knee in the first minute of a storied rivalry game on national TV made for a neat encapsulation of everything that’s broken with big-time college sports.

Phoenix Woman Dunks On Suns Owner Robert Sarver At City Council Meeting
The Phoenix City Council was supposed to vote Wednesday on a murky proposal to give Suns owner Robert Sarver $150 million in public money for arena renovations, but the formal vote was pushed back a month, in part because the plan, which is bad, would have failed. Citizens were still able to speak t...
