Greg and I have discussed this many times...should players sit out of bowl games if they have already declared for the NFL draft? Personally, I see zero issue with this, and I think Greg was on the same page except for the fact that eventually, we might see people sitting out of the College FootballContinue reading "Will Grier to Sit Out of WVU’s Bowl Game"
Giannis Don’t Want No Friends
This. This is the exact thing that can fix the NBA. I'm on the record saying that basically, I'm not a fan of the "Buddy-Buddy" NBA.

Not All Heroes Wear Capes
What do Gotham City, Metropolis and the NHL have in common? The answer is simple.... a Villain. Washington Capitals Forward Tom Wilson is the Unofficial “Official” villain of the NHL. Is that biased?
