HBO's 'Winning Time' Being Canceled After Two Highly Entertaining Seasons Is About As Infuriating As It Gets When It Comes To TV Show Death

The news is beyond infuriating. Of all the shows that gets canceled it’s this one? The remake of Gossip Girl? No problem, see ya later. That weird show with The Weeknd? Don’t let the door hit you on the way out. Winning Time, though? I don’t understand it. This isn’t a good show, it’s a great show. If you disagree and would rather watch Euphoria then different strokes for different folks....

Knee Jerk Reactions from Week 2: Patriots vs. Dolphins

That’s a truth we all have to face. –I expected a slow start. That’s happened in some of the most successful season this team has ever had. And things may, and I suspect will, improve as we move forward. There’s not a single notable thing about this edition of the New England Patriots. They’re neither fish nor fowl. They’re the NFL’s ultimate middle child. I forget who ended up doing it....

Monday Rap: The Sahith Theegala Show, Stewart Hagestad Is At It Again and It's Solheim Cup Week

The Sahith Theegala bandwagon’s been chugging for a little while now. His sui generis swing, easy-going demeanor and boisterous cheering section jumped off the screen. Theegala’s presence is infectious, his warmth palpable. Watch him a few times on TV and you feel like you’ve known him for years. But it’s a golf swing that works, and always has. I remember my first exposure to Theegala. He was dominating all the older kids and I made a point to look for him the following day....

We Should All Thank Rob Manfred For Giving Us A 12-Team MLB Playoff Format

It’s Monday which means there’s fresh MLB Power Rankings to start the 25th week of the season. Orioles fans are mad but I’ve always said that Top 3 is pretty good. I’ll explain more in a minute. For now, let’s talk about playoffs. Opposite that, the AL West and AL East are still very much in contention. The Rangers bounced back from a Labor Day slump and look to be on track....

With The Rays Staying In Tampa Bay, Nashville And Montreal Have The Inside Track At Getting Expansion Teams

The Rays will be playing baseball in Tampa Bay and not in this ugly hellhole. It looks like they will still play in a dome. This is obviously great news for baseball fans in the Tampa Bay area. The Rays aren’t moving. Other than that, this seems pretty shitty to me. The other thing that I hate about this is that they are going from one dome to another. Why aren’t they putting a retractable roof in the new park?...

Dumping Them Out: Deion Sanders Hype Train is Out of Control

Welcome back to another episode of your favorite Sunday programming, Dumping Them Out. What an incredible Saturday for the Colorado Buffaloes, and in turn all of America. I make fun of the whole thing but I’m also 150% invested in Colorado football this season. I was unironically nervous as shit that entire game. I wanted them to win so bad. The whole 9 yards. How dare you cheap shot my favorite and best player in the history of American football Travis Hunter....

Stephen A. Smith Took Plenty Of Cheap Shots At Max Kellerman And Destroyed Him On Joe Budden's Podcast, Now Saying "I Didn’t Like Working With Him"

AwfulAnnouncing- Its been more than two years since Max Kellermans departure from ESPNs First Take. But Stephen A. Smith still finds himself discussing the matter. Its just that **** simple. I didnt like it. I thought the show was stale. I thought that we had flatlined when it came to the public at large. I didnt want to go from No. when Skip [Bayless] left. I wasnt having that....

The San Diego Padres Clubhouse Is Reportedly A Lazy Disaster And People Are Blaming Manny Machado

There have been plenty of great baseball teams historically that have hated each other. Take the 1977-78 New York Yankees. Reggie Jackson ran that clubhouse and literally got into a fight with his manager Billy Martin in the dugout. There was a book written (The Bronx Zoo) about how chaotic this team was. They also won back-to-back World Series. This Padres situation is very different. That Yankees team didn’t like each other but they could agree on trying to win....

Barstool Power Rankings: The Rise Of Meek Phil

I’m not going to talk too much about it, but it’s pretty ironic, right? We here at Power Rankings HQ wish them the best of luck in their future. Every single sports media company on the planet shares clips on Twitter this way. It’s nothing new. But Robert Silverman, who quite literally graduated from clown college, thought he had something major here. Does Julie not realize how fucking funny that is?...

British tech giant Arm rises to $65B valuation after first day of trading

It rose from $56.10 to $63.59 much higher than the $51 presented on Wednesday. This made it the largest public listing in the US in nearly two years. As a result, banks had closed their order books one day early on Tuesday. Arm doesnt produce or sell actual computer chips. Rather, it designs their blueprints and then sells those along with the intellectual property and instruction sets. This approach has earned it a unique and essential role in the semiconductor supply chain....

Fire Up The Delorean

Disclaimer: I watched Doogs' high school highlights from his sophomore year and I stand by my assessment. I am willing to reassess if he has a senior highlight tape. You think I’m coming up with the hypothetical and not putting myself at QB? Running Back/WR/DB-Arian Foster This is the biggest no brainer and I don’t need to explain why. Running Back/WR/DB- Caleb I’ve played enough softball and basketball to know that Caleb was/is a very good athlete....
