Chase Utley announced he would retire at the end of this season. Whenever a player is at the end of his career, we look back and appreciate the moments he gave us, discuss his legacy, and inevitably for someone who has been a very good player, we ask the question: Is he a Hall of Famer?
Normally the day after the MLB All-Star game is one of the slower sports days of the year but this
The one-and-done rule has been sparked back into the center of discussion and debate after commissioner, Adam Silver, spoke on removing it on July 13th. Implemented in 2006 by then-commissioner, David Stern, the one-and-done rule is a mandate that controls NBA eligibility. The rule states that the player must be 19 years of age or one year removed from high school. Originally, the rule was made to increase fan interest in NCAA collegiate basketball, and it worked as fans were able to see stars and future NBA players like Derrick Rose and Greg Oden before they got to the league. Though the rule did explode college basketball into a money-making machine, it was clear that it was gradually hurting the NBA and its future players. This begs the question, how will removing the rule change basketball?
After an impressive year that saw the Houston Rockets break their franchise record in wins, clinch the top spot in the Western Conference, and come within a game of defeating the Warriors in the Western Conference Finals, the Rockets organization has had a lot to celebrate about in the last year.
In 1996, the San Antonio Spurs were hopeful of another strong season. After winning 59 games the previous year and spearheaded by 1995 MVP David Robinson, the team from the Alamo City expected to be contenders again.
The All-Star break marks the halfway point of the Major League Baseball season. Here you’ll find the current standings and who I believe will win the major awards and the World Series.
The annual MLB Futures Game was held on Sunday, and the stars of tomorrow absolutely came out to show case their talents.
Tip-off may still be three months away, but it is never too early to get excited for the next NBA season. Here are three reasons why this summer’s free agency has made the league even better.
Derrick Henry and Dion Lewis are set to lead the Tennessee Titans backfield in 2018. Is this a true 1A, 1B situation or is Henry primed to take the lead and run away with it?
In the modern NBA, Dynasties always end quicker than expected. The Miami Heat big three only managed a couple of titles. Shaquille O’Neal and Kobe Bryant’s dominance with the Los Angeles Lakers ended abruptly. The Garnett-Pierce-Allen trio in Boston yielded just a single ring. Be it due to the physical and mental fatigue of playing into June every year, the difficulty of keeping everyone on a championship team satisfied or the supreme depth of talent across the league today, it seems almost impossible for a team to win several titles in the current NBA climate.
After 90 minutes, Saturday’s match between the New England Revolution and the Los Angeles Galaxy had seen plenty of action.
Anthony Joshua and Deontay Wilder’s fight was supposed to be the fight of the century, a spectacle not seen since
