My analysis
The Baltimore Ravens were a toenail away from possibly upsetting the Chiefs on opening night and now they find themselves in danger of falling to 0-3. Only one team had made the playoffs after an 0-3 start since 2000 and that was the 2018 Texans. John Harbaugh and comp…
Lee Bowyer has blamed brutal “corner cutting” and “scary” boardroom chaos for Charlton Athletic’s relegation from the Championship after a single season back in the second tier.
“The stuff that’s been going on, it’s just crazy, it’s not normal,” Charlton’s manager told TalkSport in the wake of the club’s 4-0 fate-sealing defeat at Leeds United on Wednesday. “There’s a hell of a lot of things I’ve not been happy with. I’ve never felt so low in my life.

Chris Wilder has vowed to tighten security measures at Sheffield United after his starting lineup was leaked on social media in the buildup to Friday’s draw at Aston Villa.
The United manager said it was “a joke” that individuals purporting to be supporters of the club shared team news on X, formerly known as Twitter, on the morning of the game.
United had to settle for a point at Villa after Nicolo Zaniolo struck in the penultimate minute of second-half stoppage time to cancel out Cameron Archer’s well-taken 87th-minute strike.
The draw briefly lifted United off the bottom before Burnley won at Fulham on Saturday. Wilder was delighted with his side’s dogged display at Villa Park …
The second round of the 2024 NBA Draft kicks off Thursday night with the No. 31 pick, held by the Toronto Raptors. With well-known names and unknown talents vying to be selected before the draft ends with the 58th pick, here are the prospects viewed as the top available players: 1. SG Johnny Furphy, Kansas Australian late bloomer lacks pure strength but has the traits to be an-off-the-bench shooter at 6-foot-9 while he grows into his frame at age 19. 2. PG Tyler Kolek, Marquette Not explosive enough to run by NBA on-ball defense but crafty with the vision to lead the second unit and dominate in pick-and-roll sets. 3. Kyle Filipowski, Duke Fundamentally sound with the touch as a shooter to be a mismatch problem. NBA teams fear he'll be in chase mode too often on defense. 4.…

Some people are fans of the Cleveland Browns. But many, many more people are NOT fans of the Cleveland Browns. This 2019 Deadspin NFL team preview is for those in the latter group. Read all the previews so far here.Your team: Cleveland Browns. oh hey they found your mom Your 2018 record: 7-8-1. And now, ladies and gentlemen, a set-up … The Browns gave up on both Corey Coleman and Josh Gordon, trading them away. They fired the head coach before they even reached midseason, and dismissed their redass of an offensive coordinator too. To be interim head coach, they promoted a guy who is a disgraced bounty hunter, a hilarious liar, and who blames players for their own injuries. They had to cut their starting LB after he got caught doing insider trading. They lost to the Raiders, who a…
What should have been an easy win for the Warriors became an overtime upset, courtesy of DeMarcus Cousins and the Kings. A near-triple-double from Cousins (32 points, 12 rebounds and 9 assists) helped power Sacramento to a 109-106 win in overtime, while the Warriors struggled as a strong performance from Steph Curry wasn’t enough to overcome an especially weak night from Kevin Durant. The Kings’ bench also stepped up to the plate, outscoring the Warriors’ reserves by a margin of 45-16, with Willie Cauley-Stein shining in particular on 14 points in 17 minutes. Curry scored 35 points on 11-of-20 shooting and was 8-of-14 from three, but he missed an easy layup that would have given the Warriors the win with five seconds left in overtime: Durant, meanwhile, scored 10 points on 2-of-1…
