NCAA Did Something Right!
LETS GOOOOOOOO! The NCAA ruled today that collegiate athletes are now allowed to make money off of their own likeness, a move that should have happened the second the NCAA started raking in the cash they do.

Yu Darvish has Won the World Series!
I don’t think there is a much more polarizing position in sports than the Pitcher in baseball. There are similar that travel from sport to sport that have a position that’s, well..just different. Football has Quarterbacks, Hockey and Soccer have Goalies and even Volleyball has that super weird position where they get to wear aContinueContinue reading “Yu Darvish has Won the World Series!”

Can Mayor Peduto Stop Nutting?
News broke last week that in Mayor Peduto’s recent reddit AMA that Big Shot Bill would be happy to find some investors if Bob Nutting is willing to sell the Pirates. It got me thinking over the weekend… Not really sure what arcxjo is up to in this thread honestly but Sam_Porter’s idea might beContinueContinue reading “Can Mayor Peduto Stop Nutting?”
If Players Must Change, so Should the Refs
Look, I get it. If the Lions score some touchdowns they would have won either way. Sure. Go that route, take the question out of the equation and the fact that the refs are terrible off the table simply because it’s the “easy” thing to do. Let me start here…this is not an anti-Packer article.ContinueContinue reading “If Players Must Change, so Should the Refs”

Fortnite’s Over
Fortnite is by far the single most influential video game of the “video game” era, and I know Marty is going to hate that statement.
