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” […]
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 […]
