data-mm-id=”_17z374dji”>Cnor McGregor retired from fighting following UFC 250, an event he was watching from home. This is the third time that McGregor has retired in the last four years. It's been less than two weeks since he was tweeting about fighting Anderson Silva. It's safe to say this isn't one of those Forever Retirements. Premature retire-ation has always been a popular move in mixed martial arts. Henry Cejudo just retired less than a week ago, in the octagon, after a successful title defense. It is most likely a negotiation ploy. Conor already gets all the money, so this one is probably just a cry for attention. It has worked before. McGregor's best retirement was his first. A month and a half after losing for the first time in the UFC, he said, "Than…

data-mm-id=”_5jj4svdto”>Today, ESPN released its list of the top 100 players in the NFL heading into 2020. These particular rankings were predictions of who would be the best in 2020, rather than who is the best going into the season. As with all lists of that nature, there were some controversial choices. One such choice was the decision to place Dak Prescott above Aaron Rodgers. Prescott comes in at No. 20, while Rodgers clocks in at No. 23. Dan Graziano went on Get Up today to defend that decision and said that Prescott has been better than Rodgers over the last few seasons, so he deserves a higher ranking. ESPN's list of the top 100 players in the NFL has Dak Prescott ranked ahead of Aaron Rodgers, and @DanGrazianoESPN is all for it."I think he has outperformed Aaron Rodg…

data-mm-id=”_tsrdfldvu”>The Miami Heat and Los Angeles Lakers will face off in Game 4 of the NBA Finals tonight. The Lakers hold the advantage in the series, up 2-1 after LeBron James and Anthony Davis picked apart the Heat with ease in the first two games. Then Jimmy Butler decided enough was enough in Game 3 and posted a 40-point triple-double to keep his team from falling into a 3-0 hole. Butler has a chance to even it up tonight. This time, he'll have some reinforcements, as Bam Adebayo is expected to return after missing the end of Game 1 and all of Games 2 and 3 with a neck strain. The natural question is if it will be enough. Miami Heat All-Star Bam Adebayo is planning to return for Game 4 vs. the Lakers tonight, sources tell ESPN. Lakers lead series, 2-1.— Adrian Wojnaro…

data-mm-id=”_vtge1za23″>The Houston Texans have completely imploded over the last year-plus, alienating franchise quarterback Deshaun Watson to the point where he's demanding a trade, decimating their roster and draft capital with idiotic personnel moves and getting called out by team legend Andre Johnson for allowing Jack Easterby to ruin the franchise. While enough ink has been spilled to fill the Pacific Ocean writing about all those missteps and more, it's time to look ahead at how the Texans can salvage the situation. It may appear bleak on paper, but the reality rosier. Houston can put together a competitive roster. It's just going to take trade creativity and draft acumen to make it happen. First, let's state the obvious. Deshaun Watson is gone, which means w…

data-mm-id=”_6l4m4gphi”>On Sunday the Arizona Cardinals visited Lumen Field to take on the Seattle Seahawks. These divisional rivals do not like each other one bit so there was always going to be a good chance that there would be some fireworks. It did not take long for things to spark off as there was a scuffle between the two sides early in the second quarter after Joshua Dobbs got drilled by several blitzing Seahawks; Dobbs threw a pick on the play but the refs threw a flag for roughing the passer. it took the officials quite a while to sort everything out afterwards, though, leaving everyone to wonder what the hell was going on. Once they broke the huddle the refs announced the interception would not count due to the roughing the passer call, but they also announced an offsetting p…
