“There’s little doubt the Penguins are an attractive property. The team plays in a rich hockey market and lays claim to stars like Sidney Crosby, Evgeni Malkin, Phil Kessel and Marc-Andre Fleury.”

Has St. Louis given us anything but red, white, and blue bullshit syrup since John Hamm?

Rooney isn’t his idol, the kid was just imitating what he saw his REAL idol doing a couple weeks ago.

Reversed is so good, too.

In brief, the argument made by people who find it incredible that it’s easier to market a second-rate Russian women’s tennis player than an all-time great American one in the United States is that the American market is racist in a way that intersects with its misogyny, as evidenced by the fact that it’s easier to…

“Give? Such a womanly concept. I don’t give, I invest.”

Ken Starr failing to move forward with an investigation of a sex act. Damn, future - you’re weird.

There was a close shot of him trying to close in on a CP midfielder ( around 94:30, iirc) and he could barely even jog. He’s either nursing a groin injury, he’s toast, or both.

That explains why they went in so hard on trying to make Michael Phelps the new face of the franchise. The irony of dropping one spokesman over a public marijuana issue in favor of another with a private child sex history isn't confusing or funny - it's disturbing.

Enough talk about Orsillo, I’m sure he’ll be fine. He’s a damn good broadcaster.

Barry I like your writing and generally agree with you, but this is a straw man. Citing Glover Quin (who?) who himself cites divine intervention as the sole basis to oppose your viewpoint is impossibly soft. Further, the Packers, Patriots, and Colts might not need a lot of time to get their offense in rhythm, but the…

Few things in sports make me as happy as an exasperated Brodge.

“Here’s how you beat weapons charges, DUIs, and speeding charges. But if you’re generally aware that a ball is a bit soft, we’ll put you in the Ginger Slammer.”

Seems like they spent more time on the commercial than improving the game. Awful lot of marketing for a roster update.

“Can’t catch a break?” It’s almost as if the injury-prone guy who fumbles all the time shouldn’t be trying to run the ball.

Not sure if this is what you’re talking about, but if he has to clear waivers and he says he’ll only go to one team, a team like the Giants could claim him just to block the move. The Phillies would then revoke the waiver transaction because they don’t want to lose him for nothing.

Anyone who ranks the Blackhawks sweaters at a 7 isnʻt doing it right.

These scuffles happen and usually it’s pretty harmless without and clear “winner.” But holy crap, the Rams just slobberknockered the Cowboys in this one.

If Brady is upset with the PA signing off on the CBA, he can start distributing blame right at home. He’s been famously absent any time the union has squared off with the owners during his entire career. He’s kept the union at an arm’s length and I’m sure they don’t appreciate that he’s taken a huge discount for the…

Look I’m not gonna sit here and tell you that Gabe Kapler looked for all the world like a juicer and has the prototypical early 2000s juicer’s career stats or that he was a power hitter in the peak of baseball’s steroid era. You know all that.
