The Arizona Cardinals got past the Kyler Murray equation, and newly minted head coach Mike LaFleur settled on having Jacoby Brissett lead this franchise going forward.

Floyd Mayweather made an appearance for press conference for his upcoming exhibition fight against Mike Zambidis on June 27, but naturally what most observers are more interested in is where things stand with a supposed rematch with Manny Pacquiao.

A hit tool can carry a ballplayer quite a long way, and despite his brief MLB career, the man […]
About a year ago, the Jacksonville Jaguars brought one of the sport’s most famous athletes into its building.
