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” […]
BREAKING: Raiders trading WR Davante Adams to Jets for conditional third-round pick, per @RapSheet + @TomPelissero https://t.co/L4PkOAVBD6 pic.twitter.com/EZeVBfDtsG — Around The NFL (@AroundTheNFL) October 15, 2024 The Las Vegas Raiders are trading 3-time All-Pro receiver, Davante Adams, to the New York Jets for a 3rd round pick that could turn into a 2nd rounder if […]
There’s no such thing as normal. We are all unique beings just trying to make our way through planet Earth, doing the best we can. And there’s nothing normal about being an NBA player. You travel across the country, showering with your coworkers every night and everyone you meet knows exactly how much money you […]
The Philadelphia 76ers are STACKED this season. They crushed the offseason bringing in superstar, Paul George to replace Tobias Harris, a guy who would prefer to stand in the corner and watch the game instead of participating in it. So no one should bat an eye that Joel Embiid told ESPN he won’t ever play […]
I won’t post the video here but just take my word for it when I say Aidan Hutchinson got his leg shattered into a bajillion pieces in Detroit’s 47-9 victory over the Dallas Cowboys. The Lions look like the best team in the NFL, effortlessly busting out random trick plays just treating a gameday like […]
The New York Giants could’ve made a statement on Sunday night if they beat the Cincinnati Bengals on primetime TV. The NFC East is wide open. Dallas is dead last in rushing. The Eagles are being coached by a guy who lied on his resume. And Washington just lost to the Ravens. The Giants could’ve […]
NFL Week 6 was the week of blowouts as the great teams ascended while the bad teams got dogwalked all day long. I’m writing this shortly after watching my beloved New York Giants play Russian Roulette against the Cincinnati Bengals all night until they eventually couldn’t keep converting nonstop 4th downs. i will take this […]
AEW WrestleDream 2024 was the coronation of new superstars, the return of some old favorites and the murder of Bryan Danielson—which is quickly becoming a monthly occurrence. I don’t want to review the entire show. I won’t pretend to have nuanced opinions on Brian Cage becoming the Ring of Honor TV House Show FTW Jr […]
We got FREEEEEEESH BEEEF in Madison Square Garden Sunday night. The Minnesota Timberwolves came to Broadway just a few weeks after the two teams completed a massive, season-altering trade. Minnesota sent 4-time All-Star, Karl-Anthony Towns, to New York for Julius Randle and Donte DiVincenzo (and a draft pick that won’t matter). It only took 6 […]
In the first 4 games of his NFL career, Malik Nabers immediately established himself as the best wide receiver in the league—capable of singlehandedly dominating a game despite catching balls from a guy who rarely throws with his eyes open and will stumble over his own cleats at least once a game. Until he suffered […]
The Los Angeles Dodgers are headed to the NLCS after a big 2-0 Game 5 victory over the San Diego Padres. Kike Hernandez hit a massive homer in the 2nd inning that gave the Dodgers a 1-0 lead which is all Yoshi Yamamoto and this unstoppable Dodgers bullpen needed to shut the Padres down. As […]
It took me wayyy too long to write these NFL Power Rankings this week so I didn’t get a chance to react to the Jets firing Robert Saleh. But I had to stop what I was doing when reports leaked out on the reasons why Saleh may have been let go. Robert Saleh should’ve been […]
Welcome to the first official Deadseriousness NFL Power Rankings of the year. Unless of course I don’t finish this article before the Week 6 games begin and this sits in the drafts for the rest of my life. But hopefully, you’re reading this and I found something interesting to say about the Rams. This week, […]
We’ve made it to NFL Week 5 and after a month of sloppy, mediocre QB play, the preseason rust is off and guys like Joe Burrow and CJ Stroud and Trevor Lawrence put up some monster numbers. Disclaimer: I haven’t watched the Cowboys and Steelers game because the NFL will not trick me into watching […]
