Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers has been called many things for deciding to not get vaccinated despite the NFL’s mandate last season. Thanks to Shannon Sharpe, we can now add “prick” to the list of pejoratives. The co-host of Skip and Shannon: Undisputed went on air yesterday and promptly ripped Rodgers for his decision to be, as the quarterback put it, “immunized” against COVID-19…

Hernández, a veteran umpire, had based his lawsuit on the premise that the MLB was being racially discriminatory against him for not allowing him to officiate in the World Series, but the league’s statement shows that he was not allowed because he was just awful at his job. Chief baseball…

The NBA generates billions of dollars in revenue and has a global audience. But its U.S. viewership ratings continue to tank.

The National Basketball Association (NBA) is run by idiots.  The league released a memo stating that all unvaccinated players and team personnel will have to undergo weekly testing, although there is some nuance to the mandate. The announcement tracks with what commissioner Adam Silver said at a meeting in July in which he expected the league to do before the season kicks off in October. “It…

Progressive policies inevitably fail -- sometimes so spectacularly that even liberal celebrities have to wake up and take stock. Former heavyweight champion mike Tyson recently said in an interview with Newsmax TV host Greta Van Susteren on her podcast, The Record with Greta Van Susteren, that choosing to support conservative values in today’s day and age is basically “common sense.” “My family…

ESPN’s finest social justice warriors Stephen A. Smith and Ryan Clark were at it with their race-baiting antics last Friday. Both men were discussing a brawl that broke out at a joint practice between the Cincinnati Bengals and Los Angeles Rams last Thursday. These two teams squared off in last year’s Super Bowl, with the Rams winning 23-20, so it’s not surprising a fight did break out. During…

An opinion piece from the Washington Post’s Alyssa Rosenburg claims that female high school athletes who lose to transgendered females should learn how to accept defeat with humility instead of speaking up about the inherent unfairness that dynamic creates.

When feminists claim that they have it rough in the States, they clearly don’t have a solid understanding of how the rest of the world treats women. For example, in a move that was considered abnormal, a group of 500 women were allowed to attend a soccer match in Iran between Esteghlal FC, the second most popular team in Iran, and Mes-e Kerman. These women were given a dedicated section within…

President Joe Biden’s student debt forgiveness policy allows people in their early 20s to get off Scott free for taking on debt, forcing future generations to bear the burden of their financial decisions. While a lot of people are celebrating this new policy that incentivizes laziness, former NBA star Shaquille O’Neil is raising his kids in a countercultural way and is forcing them to earn…
