The Chicago White Sox had a miserable season in 2024, losing a record 121 games. I visited Guaranteed Rate Field in April for a game against the Tampa Bay Rays. The stadium opened in 1991 as Comiskey Park II. Almost from the start, the stadium was antiquated. As Camden Yards opened one year later, changing home ballparks were designed and built.

Oh Chief, this doesn’t mean they’re sellers. He’s only got 8 carries on the year. Yeah, no shit. He would be important. I understand that his contract is expiring after this year and running backs are replaceable. Get what you’re free to get while you’re free to. Which is why I am also in favor of trading Keenan Allen. He needs a new contract and he’s currently the Bears 2nd highest paid player behind Sweat....

I know MAC football isn’t everybody’s cup of tea. Harold Fannin Jr. plays for my alma mater Bowling Green State University. Bowling Green has had a shockingly low amount of NFL representation in my lifetime. But almost every MAC school has someone who they can hang their hat on. The Miami Redhawks had Ben Rothlisberger. Northern Illinois had Michael Turner. Western Michigan, Greg Jennings. Akron, Jason Taylor. Central Michigan, Joe Staley....

The Bucks specifically have missed the playoffs all 3 times they’ve started 1-6 or worse. At some point, the hole you dig yourself early in the season becomes too much to overcome. I will say this to any Bucks fans who may have clicked on this blog. I have good news for you. As a firm believer in everything that happens in 2K Dynasty Modes somehow translates to real life....

Sure, we watch pro football every Sunday, Monday, and Thursday. But we’re not surrounded by greatness on a daily basis. We only get so many chances to see something incredible happen. These are NFL athletes. Guys who are there every day at practice. Guys who have been around the highest level of athletes for years and years at this point. It takes a lot to blow their minds. It takes something truly special to show them something they’ve never seen before....

I mean, they must be. I invite you to do the same. It’s not easy. In the first story ever told, Cain murdered Abel because Dad (their Creator) liked him better. Virtually all of your positive male figures in fiction are loners. And most of them, have no siblings at all. All your American icons like Clint Eastwood and John Wayne characters. The same goes for the great antiheroes. Show me a fictional family with a lot of brothers, and I’ll show a web of dysfunction....

Welcome to Week 9 Sad Stats. But with death comes life. Look at the Saints. Good for them for firing Dennis Allen. But he also coached completely forgettable teams that had Charlie Batch and Joey Harrington. Even for the Bears. Some other intersting names on this list. Quite the career change he took. Also - there were still Abe’s walking around in the 70s? Still on pace to crush that less than -60 end of season result....

The next time the Sixers get a chance to play the Suns will be January 6th. But if he’s in the lineup? This is what happens when Joel Embiid isn’t in the lineup. The Sixers can’t just sit there and let something like this happen. Someone has to take one for the team there. The Sixers have enough guys on max contracts where they could cover the fine. But that’s just not who the Sixers are as an organization....

The Chiefs were nine point favorites coming into the game and nobody expected the Bucs to be in it. And I should say that I am a fan of Bowles. I think he’s a good coach. He gets the team ready and they play for him. That being said, some of his game management decisions are puzzling. It started with 12:48 left in the 4th Quarter. The Bucs punted and while I understand it, I don’t like that call....

I have to admit, I much prefer this route compared to last year. Call me crazy, but I consider that pretty impressive. You see teams in that bang out of spot fumble the game all the time. This isn’t about them, this is about the Champs. This is about not skipping steps and taking care of the games you should be taking care of. The Celts are 7-1 with the 1st ranked offense (121....

Hey…here’s an idea…don’t. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again… The man even apologized ahead of the Monday night football broadcast last night… Now what? You’re going to slap him with a bullshit disorderly conduct charge because you have nothing better to do? THAT’S what we’re spending our time on? If only the Penn State police were this vigilant in their pursuit of justice back in 2011. And if you’re living under a rock, here’s a video of what happened…...

Live from PGA National, Riggs tells the story of his wild day at Grove XXIII with Wayne Gretzky. Francis joins to chat about Noah Kahan, food around the world, and much more.

Beef between NBA players/teams and the media are certainly hot in the streets right now. Some call that being soft online, but not me. Ive been in the league for 18 years. Ive never seen Stephen A. at a practice, or a film session, or a shoot-around. Ive never seen him anywhere but on TV talking s about players. … Hes a clown to me. Hes always been a clown....
