In the Western Conference, it may be premature to crown the Oklahoma City Thunder after just three weeks of the NBA season, but at 17-1 and with all-star Jalen Williams still rehabbing from wrist surgery, the Thunder seems to be playing chess while the rest of the league plays checkers. Which is ironic, because it’s […]

The Colorado Rockies hired Paul DePodesta last week as their new Head of Baseball Operations. DePodesta, most recently the Chief Strategy Officer for the Cleveland Browns, was best known for his work with the 2002 Oakland A’s under Billy Beane, where sabermetrics and analytics helped inspire the hit movie “Moneyball” (2011). “Moneyball” is based on […]

It’s been a rough stretch for Penn State. First, the team loses a double-overtime thriller to 6th-ranked Oregon. Then, the Nittany Lions lost to a winless UCLA team, despite being favored by 24.5 points. And finally, Penn State’s quarterback gets injured, the team loses to Northwestern, and the university decides to fire its longtime coach, […]

It was rough at Bethpage Black, and I’m not talking about the tall grass off the fairways. Team USA came out so slowly on day one that they should have played from the Bethpage Whites. And in a tournament in which there was more chirping than chipping, more cheap shots than wedge shots, and more […]

As a Denver Broncos fan, it is hard to imagine anything more painful than losing a game on a leverage penalty. Leading 28-26, the game appeared over as Indianapolis kicker, Spencer Shrader’s last second, 60-yard field goal attempt was both short and right. That’s when the whistle blew. Apparently, Denver lineman Dondrea Tillman, was flagged […]

Considering that the first game of the NFL season doesn’t kick off until September 4th, one may think that it’s a little early to be talking about football. NFL teams have cuts to make, depth charts to set, and meaningless preseason games to prepare for. And while 6.9 million viewers tuned in for the NFL […]

As Scottie Scheffler tapped in his final putt in winning The Open this past weekend, his fourth major championship, I glanced at the leaderboard to see how the others fared. Wyndham Clark had a nice tournament, as did Xander Schauffele and Rory McIlroy, but the only LIV player to finish in the top ten was […]

It was a typical Saturday. I grabbed a little coffee, got comfortable on the couch, put some sports on the television, and scrolled Instagram reels on my phone. The house could have used a decent cleaning, the yard begged to be mowed, and the grocery list wasn’t shopping for itself, but the day was packed […]

The Colorado Rockies introduced a new menu item at Coors Field last Sunday. It’s called the Sacrificial Lamb. Bud Black, the Rockies all-team leader in managerial wins, was let go on Sunday following the team’s historically bad start to the 2025 baseball season. Despite a rare victory in Black’s final game, Colorado’s 7-34 record is […]

It may sound like I’m aging, old school, or simply stuck in the past, but sports aren’t what they used to be. Take the college football overtime process for example. 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 […]
