NFL Free Agency Part Two: Who Signed Where?
Welcome to Day Two of the NFL's 2015 league year, where we're going to cover the notable free-agent signings and rumors as of Wednesday evening. Yesterday I covered some of the big stories from Day One of the NFL's free agency period, in case you missed it. There's a lot of free agent news […]
NFL Free Agency: What The Hell Just Happened?
Well, this is why you don't take a nap on the first day of the league year. You go to sleep in the afternoon, thinking the NFL is essentially stable, then all of a sudden the whole damn thing explodes and you're not really sure if you woke up or you're still having oddly specific […]
Welcome to the 2014-15 RotoBaller Oscars!
So, apparently the Oscars were on Sunday, and in honor of Hollywood taking its time out to congratulate a bunch of movies for Outstanding Achievement in Wanting to Win an Oscar, I thought we'd do something fun today and hand out my own special RotoBaller Oscars for Outstanding Sports Achievement in 2014-2015. It'll […]
The Week In Review: Killing Time 'Til The All-Star Game
Well, here we are. The dead zone. All the football is done, save for the NFL draft, but that particular circus doesn't pull into town for a while yet. Winter meetings are over, and spring training hasn't started yet, so the only real baseball-based entertainment is pointing and laughing at Alex Rodriguez when he says […]
Daily Sports Recap 2/5: National Signing Day
You're saying there was an NFL game on Sunday? Huh. Did I get fantasy points for it? No? Okay, moving on then.

Well, we're down to one game left to play. The Big Game. The Whole Enchilada. The Day That Should Be A Federal Holiday But Somehow Isn't. In case you were wondering why I haven't come out and just said the official name of the "Big Game" it's because there's a man in a black suit […]
Daily Sports Recap 1/23: Something Something Deflated Balls
Well, that was sure an entertaining and controversy-free NFC championship game! I'm glad I got to watch it-- it was one of the best football games I've ever seen. I didn't get to watch the AFC championship, but I'm sure it was just as entertaining and controversy-free as well, right? You're saying that it […]
Daily Sports Recap 1/20: We're Baaaaaaaaaack
I would like to preface this column with a couple of apologies. First off, I want to apologize for taking so long in between columns. Cross country moves suck when everything goes smoothly, and the suck is massively compounded when complications arise. Complications like "someone backing out of a sublease agreement with two days before a […]
Daily Sports Recap 1/6: #JustClevelandThings
Welcome back to another midweek edition of the Daily Sports Recap, where I have once again been blessed by the sports gods, as Cleveland has double-dipped into the metaphorical off-brand ketchup of "laugh at our pain."

Daily Sports Recap 1/5: Still Talkin' About Playoffs
I guess that over the weekend, some other important football games were played. Maybe. If you really want to get technical about it. Here's what happened: NFC Wild Card Game: Arizona Cardinals @ Carolina Panthers, Panthers Win 27-16 Statistically speaking, if you watched this game, you don't exist. The NFL kicked off its 2015 playoffs by having […]

Daily Sports Recap, 12/23: QB Witness Protection
As the days have gotten shorter and we near that last stretch of the year, remember the real meaning of the season: football's almost over, baseball doesn't start until April, and the Spurs will rest Duncan, Ginobili and Parker about 20 more times before the playoffs. It is truly the bleakest part of the year. Arizona […]

Daily Sports Recap, 12/18: College Football Coaching FUN Edition

Daily Sports Recap, 12/17: A-Rod is $27MM DH
It's Wednesday, which means that statistically speaking, everyone reading this article has heard the phrase "hump day" at least twice, and heard someone giggle about it like a freakin' 12-year-old at least three times, which means we should all be good and cheerful by the time we get into the article, eh? Alex Rodriguez […]

Daily Sports Recap, 12/11: Officially Crowdsourcing Titles

Daily Sports Recap for 12/8: Uneventful Edition
Welcome to the Daily Sports Recap, where we try to figure out if anything really funny happened on Monday, besides my fantasy playoff lead evaporating because of Matt Ryan and Julio Jones. Which really isn't that funny at all. Sports News From Yesterday (12/8) Rams Send Out All Six Players Drafted After RG3 Trade as Team […]
Daily Sports Recap for 12/7: College Playoff Edition

Daily Sports Recap: Also, I Forgot My Monster Snorkel

Welcome back to my Morning Recap, breaking down yesterday's sports news and events.
