Which isn’t much of a surprise. The sides are too far apart. What with the MLBPA wanting more fair treatment and pay for the players and the owners wanting do their best Scrooge McDuck impression, diving into piles of cash and giving the players nothing. Baseball labor update: There is no deal. There never was going to be one today. MLB made a proposal.…

England white-ball captain Eoin Morgan said that blame of the national team’s embarrassing and abysmal performance in the Ashes 2021-22 shouldn’t be put on the domestic new format tournament, the Hundred. England was drubbed 0-4 by Australia in the recent Ashes down under. It was not only the manner in which England lost the series, but the way they lost all the four matches in the series is what matters. England lost the first Test in Brisbane by 9 wickets, the second Test in Adelaide, a D/N one by 275 runs, the third Test in Melbourne by an innings and…
January 18th, 2022 Stephanie Trapp Former world heavyweight champion Deontay Wilder is considered the biggest puncher in boxing today. His power knows no bounds when it connects on an opponent’s chin. The spotlight turns on five times; the “Bronze Bomber” took out his opposition and audibly caused gasps from the crowd.

Even when Wilder is behind on the scorecards, everybody in that arena knows it only takes one punch. Not since the days of Lennox Lewis and Mike Tyson has…
Tennis Australia has issued a bizarre statement addressing the turbulent build-up to this year’s Australian Open in which it refused to mention deported world number one Novak Djokovic. The defending champion’s visa saga dominated virtually the entire lead-up to the grand slam, with Tennis Australia CEO Craig Tiley under scrutiny for his role in Djokovic’s failed attempt to play in the tournament with a medical exemption. In a statement issued on Tuesday afternoon, the board of Tennis Australia said it respected the decision of the Immigration Minister to cancel Djokovic’s visa, but did not mention the 20-time major champion by…

Kingsbury didn’t have much to say about what is now a trend for his Cardinals. “We just got to keep looking at it,” the coach said. “Keep trying to find new ways to improve later on in the season, whatever that may be. That’s definitely a priority this offseason.” The Cardinals have little issue with starting regular seasons positively. Arizona won its first seven games in 2021 and was the last remaining undefeated team in the NFL before falling to the Green Bay Packers in heartbreaking fashion on the prime-time stage. Still, the Cardinals’ play in the first two months…
