Haaland scored again today and now has 36 goals after 32 games Premier League games played. Across all competitions, his season tally is up to 52, also an all-time modern record in progress. 96 years ago, a player named Dixie Dean scored 63 goals, apparently. Haaland will have 6 more league...

Agree on both counts: would love to see the Fake MVP lose, but the refs will do what they can to help him win. He can always fall back on his "knee injury" excuse if the league doesn't bail him out. For the NBA, the equivalent of a "Great White Hope" heavyweight bout would be a Sixers-Nuggets...

The NBA will implement a new rule change starting next year that any player invited to the combine that does not attend will be ineligible to be drafted. This is evidently a concession to owners (as opposed to the players' union) because many prospects were opting out, either by citing nebulous...

Austin Reaves has three "sportscenter"-tier plays trending on Twitter right now. encore:

Ha, no tears shed for Bob, who at age 69 is basically year-to-year anyway. That is a mind-boggling amount of money to lose over this episode. I listened to the audio: they were joking about Xavier not taking WVU transfer players. The insinuation was that Xavier, a Catholic school, acts high and...

Mark Jackson is outed as the MVP voter who left Jokic off his ballot completely. Jackson has had some "based" views about the gays, but by many accounts he was an unlikable coach and employee. It's easy to think this was an ideological stand against the "racism" of having a white MVP winner...

Kevin Love is certainly past his prime. At least, I assume so because his hair is now salt-n-pepper. With Miami, he's polishing off a borderline hall-of-fame career. He's been a prolific scorer and rebounder over the years, and every so often he still has a mega-game where he carries his team to...

Joe Girard III transfers from Syracuse to Clemson. The Syracuse "rebuild" looks like it's not gonna be pretty. Meanwhile at Clemson, they should return starters PJ Hall and Ian Schieffelin along with contributors Alex Hemenway and Ben Middlebrooks. Adding Girard makes them a great team to...

More white players should air their grievances with the draft process. On the current trajectory, there's gonna need to be some sort of "Rooney Rule" where every team in the top 10 MUST interview one white quarterback. That's contrived, but it could hold way more easily for ONE SINGLE white...

I'm with you both, although I was more of a Tom Chambers guy than Steve Kerr. And eventually Allen Iverson too, if I'm being honest. On a somewhat-related tangent (about very "ghetto" players), I've seen this guy Dillon Brooks on the Grizzlies suddenly get a lot of press... all negative. He was...

The Jets don't have any white receivers to underutilize anymore; I hope Randall Cobb and Allen Lazard give Rodgers their A+ seasons, since neither one is good enough to "pick where they play" on merit alone.

I'm familiar with IMG Academy by name as a unique and weird sports funnel to the NCAA. They put a large chunk of their football and basketball players into D1 programs. Without doing extra digging, it sounds like that's the case for many other sports, as well. I've always found the prep school...

Jokic loses the MVP to Embiid in what was probably a predictable outcome. Black ESPN commentator Kendrick Perkins, despite barely clearing thresholds of literacy, fluency, and sentience, seemed to inject this narrative a couple months ago that it would be RACIST to have a white three-peat MVP...

Virginia Tech has added forwards Robbie Beran (Northwestern) and Tyler Nickel (UNC) from the transfer portal. The Hokies also had two black players transfer out. With the addition of incoming freshman Brandon Rechsteiner (son of Big Poppa Pump), there should be ten whites on next year's playing...

Sabonis got "raped" tonight by pro-sports standards. He's a 3rd team all-nba player, but suddenly he's become the 4th player on his team on television.

Lions draft a turd for their punchbowl.... Hooker won't be under pressure to play as a 3rd rounder, but is he going to do one single thing better than Stetson Bennett or Max Duggan, who will be available for another eighty picks?

The Lions have drafted two white Hawkeyes - could they make it three???

Wow, the Lions went with Campbell at #18 (I'm late to the party)! For now, I'll give them a pass on their scatback pick. I wonder what they can get for unloading D'Andre Swift?

The LOLions draft a scatback with their first pick... crappy decision, IMO.

As mentioned elsewhere, the NFL suspended five players for gambling, including four Lions players (three of which are wide receivers). Stanley Berryhill is practice squad fodder, but Quintez Cephus was on the depth chart and Jameson Williams was last year's #12 pick. This can only help the...

@sprintstar @white lightning American college sports have historically held limitations on student-athletes regarding when and how often they can practice under supervision, how they're compensated, and what their coursework commitments (actual school) entail. However, I assume this picture is...

What age was Messi when he became the default PK taker for his various all-star clubs? I would guess that it was later than age 21. I wonder if you have any examples other than the best player in the history of the sport defaulting by his team to PK duty. Your idea that Arsenal did not have a...

This would be an interesting stat to research: how many teams ever let 21-yo's take penalties over the years. I can see the logic and camaraderie in giving your top striker or on-field #10 the ball. But frankly, even the center-backs for Arsenal should have fared well in their PK competitions...

Awesome first career playoff game for Austin Reaves, who has cracked the Lakers starting lineup. He's getting a ton of flattering press. Crunch time, looking to seal the win, and Reaves just waves off Lebron and calls his own number: Maravich pass: Drives and absorbs:
