Carolina Panthers Schedule Breakdown: Final Stretch

Since the NFL’s main objective is to make money and not to appease my sincere appreciation for symmetry, they’ve added a 17th game to the regular season and ruined the neat four quarters of four games breakdown. Due to this unsightly fifth game in this article, we’ll call this the final stretch of the season […]

Once the dust settles, though, the Oilers still have plenty of roster decisions ahead, one of…

Has batting average become underrated?

Here’s something I’ve tweeted in recent days, but it’s also a good conversation to have here. The collapse of batting average across MLB is astounding! As of yesterday, there are more qualified hitters batting under .200 (17) than there are guys batting .300 or better (15). These are not the scrubs pinch hitting a couple […]

Lions mailbag: Why is Jared Goff still being overlooked?

We’ve officially reached the “player rankings” portion of the offseason, and it was kicked off this week by a particularly offensive quarterback ranking by friends-of-the-show, ESPN’s Mina Kimes and Ben Solak. This week, they did a NFL quarterback draft. To be clear, this isn’t a standard ranking of the NFL passers, it’s a draft where […]

Why is Dominic Smith so awesome now?

Ha, this isn’t really even a question, except in the rhetorical sense. I just wanted to have an appreciation post for Dominic Smith, so this is it.
