Sometimes, the most intense rhetorical battles you fight are the ones you fight at home. Before I dive into this screed against the commentariat segment that inspired it, let’s be clear: I am not declaring a fatwa on a generation of sports thinkers. I’m here to empty multiple clips into a speculative school of thought […]

For West Ham United, the name of the game this season is obviously survival, and staying up in the Premier League, by any means nesccessary. However, if they can also get a trophy for 2025-26, it would be very special too. And a deep FA Cup run, at the very least, would be kind of […]

Wasn’t quick enough to adapt to the conditions of the first half. Saved an unjustly awarded free-kick in the 67th minute, which nobody will be more relieved about than […]

Say this about Joel Embiid — there’s never a dull moment.

After the game Flyers head coach Rick Tocchet said he was extremely impressed with the amount of activity the Flyers had offensively, but was still irrit...
