Here’s a sampling of some of the usual digital fare you’ll find: “[well justified…

It certainly took them long enough, but the Indianapolis Colts made an excellent hire in Shane Steichen, as their new head coach. Indianapolis’ search for a new head coach, which spanned 35 days and included 21 interviews of 13 candidates, had all the makings of an oncoming train wreck. After…

Back by popular demand, we’ve re-examined and updated to our previous rankings to include every MCU movie entering 2023. — One of the hallmarks of a really good movie is being able to unpack another element of the film that you maybe hadn’t realized or delved into previously.

Through the first three games of the 2022 season, nobody has rushed for more yards, and been more productive doing so. — Perhaps the most incredible accomplishment by running back Nick Chubb this season is that he’s made it okay to lavish praise on a prominent member of the Cleveland Browns offense, and not feel totally disgusting about it (as you would when discussing a certain you-know-who that has yet to be…

Through the early part of the 2021 NFL season, Arizona has emerged as one of the league’s most interesting teams. — While virtually no one forecasted that we’d be seeing such circumstances come the second weekend of October, none of us should be surprised that the Arizona Cardinals sit near the very top — if not on the very top — of most weekly NFL power rankings lists.
