The Chicago Bulls rank first in the NBA’s Eastern Conference basketball standings and in putting on pride nights. Or last in the latter, depending on one's point of view. They’ll show you how basketball should be played and how to stage the allegedly best darn halftime drag show going.
The Bulls enlisted “one of Chicago’s most talented drag queens to pull off a tribute to great moments in LGBTQ…

Did you know that COVID-19 vaccines are one of the modern wonders of the world? One of the nation’s top athletes isn’t aware of this though. The Brooklyn Nets’ guard Kyrie Irving needs to put aside his ignorance, get jabbed, keep everyone in New York City safe and serve as a good role model for people, says SBNation sportswriter Ricky O’Donnell.
A perennial all-star, Irving has refused to be…

Howard Stern’s been shocking the world for a living for a long, long time, but on Tuesday, he nearly lost his mind tearing tennis great Novak Djokovic to shreds. The tennis player, he raged, should be banned from, not just the Australian Open but tennis in general, for not being vaccinated.
Ranked No. 1 in the world tennis, Djokovich is currently embroiled in controversy in Australia, where he…

Can we ever have a gender-normal Olympiad again? Last summer in Tokyo, it was all about the transgenders. Next month in Being, the United States will feature its first-ever non-binary winter athlete.

What happens when one high school girls’ basketball team comes to compete, and the other team doesn’t? If you are the head coach of the first team, and your squad wins in a wipeout, you are scapegoated and suspended for a game. We’ve seen this sort of ridiculous thing before when a sports team is severely punished for achievement, and it’s never a pretty outcome.

In a strict policy change, the National Football League is prohibiting questions designed to embarrass or offend potential draft selections. The Wonderlic test is also going away, and so are over-the-top interrogation techniques. Any violators will face severe penalties, according to a league-wide memo circulated Wednesday.

The NBA’s perpetual first head female coach in waiting awaits no more. Becky Hammon, a San Antonio Spurs assistant coach, has given it up and accepted a head coaching job with the WNBA’s Las Vegas Aces. Widely assumed to have the right stuff to coach men, her privilege card has expired. She and the media immediately revved up glass ceiling excuses for getting pass over by NBA teams.

Almost all professional athletes are fully vaccinated. Almost all of the highest-paid athletes are fully vaccinated. Yet the nitpickers at Forbes magazine shamed the very few who have not indicated their status, including Aaron Rodgers, who isn’t even on the highest-paid list. But what does a little rule-bending hurt if you can throw a Most Valuable Player onto your list in hopes of getting more…

Long-time USA Swimming official Cynthia Millen resigned a week ago in protest over the so-called University of Pennsylvania transgender athlete making a mockery of women’s collegiate swimming. Millen told The Washington Times and Fox News that she will not support transgender nonsense on the grounds that fairness in women’s swimming is being destroyed by a man.
