The Knicks aren’t a basketball team without Josh Hart. They’d be 11 millionaires standing around watching the coach’s son chuck up 900 shots a game. Josh Hart is the most important player on the New York Knicks. At 6-foot-4, he rebounds the way Andre Drummond talks about Andre Drummond rebounding. I’m convinced Josh Hart is […]
I love game shows. I’m a simple, slow Neanderthal. Jeopardy is a half-hour-long attack on my self-esteem as I struggle to get one answer right and if I do get it right, I don’t say my answer until after the contestant does and I’ll whisper to myself “Yea, I knew that.” The Floor has the […]
Daniel Jones sucks. We no longer need to debate this with hypotheticals about healthy offensive lines and better receivers. He’s had 6 years to prove he can play at a high level for 17 weeks out of the year and he cannot. Two weeks ago, Jones was benched for Drew Lock and on Monday night, […]
The “Enjoy Scoring 50 a Game Now Before Your OC Leaves in the Offseason” Award: Detroit Lions The Detroit Lions dropped 52 points on the Tennesee Titans—in front of their friends and families. Their third blowout victory this year. Detroit leads the NFL with 33.4 points a game. The Lions are 6-1, looking […]
Aaron Judge almost won the Triple Crown this season. He finished 1st in homers (58), 1st in RBIs (144) and 3rd in batting average (.322). He also led all of baseball in on-base percentage, slugging, OPS, OPS+ and wRC+. And all of this was a season after he won the MVP and set a new […]
Last week, Marcus Mariota quietly led the Washington Commanders to a 40-7 victory over the Carolina Panthers after Jayden Daniels left the game one series in with a rib injury. Maybe it went under the radar because they beat a Panthers team that struggles to field 53 NFL-caliber players but in a season defined by […]
When Kristaps Porzingis played for the Knicks, he was 20 years old and moving to a brand new country. On the court, he could put the ball in the basket fine but he didn’t do the microscopic things that lead to wins—and off the court, he was getting jumped in Latvia and may or may […]
We made it. We finally made it. The 2024-25 NBA season begins this week which means it’s time to wildly speculate on the outcomes of all 82 games before a single one gets played. As is tradition. Some of these predictions fit the bold category and some of these predictions fit the stupid category but […]
Tyrese Haliburton’s profile is blossoming. The best passer in the NBA just led the Indiana Pacers to the Eastern Conference Finals (thanks to every player on the Knicks using their final hours of sick time before the season ended), got to sit courtside at the Paris Olympics to watch Team USA win gold from the […]
NFL Week 7 in the books (minus Monday Night Football playing two games simultaneously for some reason). The 49ers lost to the Chiefs. Again. Saquon Barkley ran all over the Giants. Detroit took the NFC North crown off the Vikings corpse and speaking of deaths, Deshaun Watson may finally be out of our lives. Here […]
Deshaun Watson forced 20+ women to touch his little wee wee and was punished with the largest contract in NFL history. The Cleveland Browns traded for a guy who was spending his afternoons in courthouses, trying to convince judges that all these women were just telling similar lies, unprovoked, and not only did they give […]
Okay, so, uh, Mikal Bridges can’t shoot anymore. Mikal Bridges’ shooting form doesn’t look sound atm.: Vs the Wizards last night: 2/12 FG 0/10 3PM Lots of talk in fantasy circles about him returning to his efficient Suns days where he was a top 50 guy. Do you think he can do it?#FantasyBasketbal pic.twitter.com/skS508jdSL — […]
The Yankees used to have a permanent residency in the World Series but they haven’t been to the Promised Land since 2009. Whether it was Joe Girardi being too tight or Aaron Boone being too loose or injuries or the Houston Astros knowing what pitch was coming or Aroldis Chapman giving up bombs and smiling […]
Aaron Judge went into the 2022 season on the final year of his contract. He then hit the most home runs in American League history and won the MVP Award. Greatest contract year ever. Gleyber Torres went into 2024 on the final year of his contract and within the first two weeks of the season, […]
The squeaky wheel gets the grease. How can anyone give you what you want if they don’t know what you want? Colorado star, Travis Hunter, went on a podcast—hosted by RGIII and his weird ass wife from a war-torn Eastern European nation who sits quietly next to him—to give his argument for why he should […]
I love NBA rookies. And not in a Draya/Jalen Green financial exploitation kind of way. A fresh crop of talented players hit the league and we tattoo our hopes, beliefs, fears, biases and agendas to them before they play their first minute. This year is an interesting draft class as there are no clear “stars” […]
