data-mm-id=”_3cqxvkdz0″>The best time of year has arrived: the NFL playoffs. It's an extremely competitive field this season, top-to-bottom with quality teams. But not all are made equal. Here are your official NFL playoff power rankings. 12. Philadelphia Eagles (9-7)Philadelphia Eagles v New York Giants / Steven Ryan/Getty ImagesThe Eagles are the kings of the steaming pile of garbage that is the 2019 NFC East. Carson Wentz is playing extremely well, but the Eagles are so depleted from injuries they're starting practice-squad guys at nearly every skill position offensively. The fact that they're even playing in January is an accomplishment itself, but it would be astonishing if they got to play more than one game. 11. Tennessee Titans (9-7)Jacksonville Jaguars v Tennes…
data-mm-id=”_wy16ozj78″>It will be all hands on deck when the NBA restart officially gets underway on July 30. One of the talking points around the bubble environment down in Orlando is that teams are having to make do with less personnel than they're accustomed to because they were only allowed to bring so many essential employees. This is also true for the media teams tasked with broadcasting the games. TNT announced their broadcast schedule for the NBA's "seeding games" set to take place between July 30 and August 15, when the playoffs begin. With Marv Albert choosing to sit out the restart because of safety concerns, Kevin Harlan and Ian Eagle will be the two main play-by-play callers for TNT, and they'll be pulling double-header duty, too. TNT has announce…
data-mm-id=”_ehyszrk1u”>Andrew Church, a former second round pick, was one of the 39 minor league players released by the New York Mets earlier this week. The 25-year-old pitcher had been a part of the organization since 2013. He briefly retired during the 2018 season and returned last year. At the time, he said that he was frustrated and wanted to spend more time with his wife and young son. After the Mets released him, he shared some more details about his retirement. He has choice words for the organization, especially their handling of Tim Tebow. View this post on Instagram Please read to understand my true feelings. Today I got released by the NY Mets organization. The people on the other end of the phone had nothing but good things to say and I appreciated that…
data-mm-id=”_oy53kf6fy”>The times have changed and continue to change. It took Colin Kaepernick several years to win, but he did in the end. For all his missteps and prolonged silence, he started a movement that opened the door to real change — and not just in the corners one would suspect. His story has evolved, and those who vilified him are finding him vindicated. As such, his corporate capital has more value. This is America after all, where the true measure of a man is often reflected in dollars, cents, and handshake deals. Of course, it's not all bad because to realize Kaepernick is now a net-positive for a brand and palpable to a widespread audience is to realize just how far public sentiment has shifted. This morning, the unemployed quarterback and Disney announced a cont…
data-mm-id=”_ujjrvrxyk”>It was, to state the obvious, an unusual baseball season. We were privy to a 60-game sprint after multiple bleak months in which it looked like it'd ultimately be a zero-game sprint. Major League Baseball's popularity remains fodder for actual concern and concern trolling. The 30,000-foot view would suggest we shouldn't be taking huge stock in this small sample size and Americans' desire to consume the product amid a pandemic and unprecedented sporting competition.We do have some hard data, though, on the most popular players in regards to jersey sales, which MLB released today.MLB announced the 20 most popular jerseys based on sales.11 teams represented.

data-mm-id=”_mhthh0eq6″>How quickly New York Giants fans forget how close they were to running Eli Manning out of town for the same reasons they're now trying to run Daniel Jones out of town. That's what two Super Bowl MVPs against the greatest dynasty in NFL history will get you, though. Amnesia. It's a hell of a reaction if taken in moderation and Big Blue nation is clearly dosed up enough to forget reality.Though his first three seasons as a full-time starter, Manning was one of the most turnover-prone quarterbacks in the NFL, throwing 55 interceptions in total from 2005-07. After throwing four interceptions in his first two playoff games, many pundits and fans questioned Manning's leadership and called for his ouster leading into the 2007 season. Then he led the…
data-mm-id=”_uqogwn57a”>Julio Jones joined FS1's Undisputed via phone this morning and offered some unfiltered thoughts on his future, which sure seems as though won't be with the Atlanta Falcons. It was quite a moment, followed by a few hours now of speculation about just what the heck happened there as well as an increase in "California two-party consent" search traffic. Jones' current team is carefully monitoring the situation and using it as a springboard to its own pageviews. In a call with Shannon Sharpe, Julio Jones commented on his future in Atlanta. https://t.co/i3622KR4fp— Atlanta Falcons (@AtlantaFalcons) May 24, 2021A team-operated site recapping the shiny object of the day on sports-talk television feels like newish ground.

data-mm-id=”_9zhqes0jw”>Anthony Richardson's generational athletic traits were on display early on Sunday afternoon. The fourth overall pick in this year's draft scored two rushing touchdowns in the first six minutes of the Indianapolis Colts' matchup with the Houston Texans. Later in the first quarter he did something that we very rarely see from a quarterback at any level. With the ball in his own end on first-and-10, Richardson dropped back to pass and was quickly set upon by Texans defenders. He moved around in the pocket a bit before he started to scramble to his left in an attempt to make something happen. As several Houston defensive linemen closed in on Richardson, he went to throw the ball away and realized he would have trouble getting the throw off with his ri…
data-mm-id=”_swoqns18z”>The new era of Washington Commanders' football got off to a roaring start on Sunday with a thrilling 20-16 home victory over the tanking Arizona Cardinals. The Commanders outscored the Cardinals 10-0 in the fourth quarter to get the win with Sam Howell completing 19-of-31 passes for 202 yards, one touchdown and one interception. With a new owner and a 1-0 record, spirits were high in the stands despite the rain. But even that didn't keep everyone on their best behavior as the field wasn't the only location of a fight during the game.Here's video of a confrontation between a number of Washington fans. If you stick with the video a few seconds and the camera operator turns his phone sideways, you'll see a woman sucker punch another woman i…
