Full disclosure, I did not do a 2025 mock draft this year. But if I did, I would have had the University of Colorado, two-way star, Travis Hunter going in the top five, and I would have been right as the Jacksonville Jaguars traded up to take Hunter with the second overall pick. As for […]

It’s Tax Day, and I’m not claiming a lot of itemized deductions, but I’m writing off the Colorado Rockies. Apparently, Charlie Monfort’s accountant told him to offset any capital gains with some losses, and the Rockies (3-13) are doing their best to comply. As usual, Monfort just shows that rich people don’t pay taxes. No […]

For the first time since 2008, four number-one seeds have advanced to the Final Four in this year’s NCAA College Basketball Championships, and we shouldn’t be surprised. The tournament committee properly seeded Auburn, Duke, Florida, and Houston, placed them in regions that limited team travel, encouraged home fans to attend, and pitted them against schools […]

Man versus Machine. In 1997, an IBM computer defeated World Chess Champion, Garry Kasparov, 3.5 to 2.5, in a best-of-six tournament. In a game of Jeopardy! back in 20ll, IBM’s Watson AI took on former champions, Ken Jennings and Brad Rutter, and beat them on National Television. In 2016, playing the game of Go, Google’s […]

Each team now has one possession starting at the opponent’s 25-yard line. If the game is still tied, they play another overtime. If the game […]

It is being called one of the biggest trades of all time. Bigger than Shaq to the Heat (2004), Harden to the Nets (2021), or Durant to the Suns (2023). Bigger than Michael Burry during the collapse of the housing market (2007), George Soros messing with the Bank of England (1992), and bigger than Peter […]

The Grossman Theory was first hypothesized prior to the coin flip of the 2007 Super Bowl. The Indianapolis Colts were led by a young quarterback by the name of Peyton Manning. Manning was the first pick of the NFL draft nine years earlier, the son of a former NFL star, and one of the faces […]

I should have known that week eighteen was going to be a weird one after checking my Fantasy Football lineup for my championship finale, and reading that Jayden Daniels was only projected to play the first half at most. The good news was that the list of free agent quarterbacks available was plentiful. I could […]

On the first day of Christmas my true love gave to me, the Broncos winning 35 to 3. (Okay, technically the first day of Christmas has the Chiefs at Steelers and the Ravens at Texans. But whatever.) On the second day of Christmas my true love gave to me, a two-team parlay that I love, […]

The College Football Playoff brackets were announced last Sunday, and to be honest, only three teams should be upset about it. The Alabama Crimson Tide (9-3) had a legitimate beef with the second hardest Strength of Schedule in all of football, wins over Georgia and South Carolina, the fact that they play in the SEC, […]
